Worlds Strongest Man Q&A !

Topics Covered

Is Worlds Strongest Man too light?
Do you think a healthy Martins or Mateusz would have won this year?
Do you think that wsm and other big shows should transfer away from standardised evets and have for example different sized logs and old school deadlifts with rocks?
Why Stoltmans and other from UK don’t start at ASC? ASC is much better. To win – you must be strong. Some events are too difficult for most of athlets – and it’s good.
Instead of having an off day after the heats (did not happen n this year). Also, in lieu of all the eating youtube videos from most of the contestants. Should an eating contest on that off day of some sort be one of the strongman events?
What do you think about 5 or 6 events in the final with 10 athletes? I personally think that the heats and the finals could be merged
Which Strongman comp has the best model to promote the sport: Arnold events, WUS, Champions League, Giants Live, or WSM?
What would your ideal WSM qualification system look like? More Giants Live? A wider selection of athletes? Specific qualifications for wildcards? Does having very specific qualification standard limit a promoters ability to be flexible? (which may be necessary, especially in 2020).
What does the sport need to do to start having live coverage?
We always talk about who is the strongest ever or who is the strongest never to win! But who is the strongest to never competed at WSM?
What is the worst event you’ve witnessed? I watched a local comp recently that had a 700lb yoke hold for max time…it was very boring
Why do you think WSM is still pre recording their show and showing at a later date? We watch it on channel 5 in the UK which isn’t a channel I would have thought that would give it maximum exposure. Do you think they will move with the times soon and do something similar to the CrossFit coverage where they make it a proper event? That would be great to see with guys like you and Big Loz providing expert analysis.
Do you think any weight class will be in Major strongman comps or always open weight will be in the front Maybe pro wsm asc under 105 kg somethigh is that posiable
