Ivarboneless Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Dave Chaffee is also a WAF gold medalist (WAF 2010), and Tom Nelson is a WAF bronze medalist (WAF 2010). Both in the seniors category. American rankings can be found at inthehook.com Many of the guys are legitimate, top-level guys. Others aren't as competitive, but they are great people or are great personalities. To Philip_777: There wasn't a whole lot of technique in the Ethan/Turbo match. Turbo was pretty much selected for comedic purposes, Ethan has far more strength in every position on the table. I know this from personal experience pulling both guys. Turbo is decent (not considering weightclass) with his left and would have been better matched with Ethan lefty. Turbo had no chance in any circumstance versus Ethan righty, no technique needed. It's a strength sport, but as with bench pressing or anything else-technique is involved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadams Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It's completely different then pulling in a real tournament. I like the show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mephistopholes Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Has a gotten any better? I couldn't get past that first episode. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMeador Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 It definitely has IMO and many others.. Most people, even arm wrestlers were not real into the first episode from what I see. Liam you might be able to catch the episodes on AMC's website but I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I got deep into tonight's episode before some family members kicked me off the TV, and I have to say it is much improved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedy Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Trust me Over The Top was better than the show. IMHO if they focused more on the training itself then the competition after I think it would be more appealing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
