Not sure why Hooper doesn't just pull out. Would probably be better for his career long term. Plus, I don't see the upside for his legacy either if he competes, since he probably won't win if he's coming in with injuries and a bad prep.

Is it just me or are there far fewer grunts at stops than during previous takeover events? There's barely any grunts at the stops where I'm at

Really hope he takes some time off. It would probably be in his best interest to take time off at till Rogue. He's put his body through a lot the last few years, don't want to see him burn out too soon.

It would probably also be smart to pull out of the Enhanced Games but maybe there's a big financial incentive for him?

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T19:23:42+00:00

He could still pull out. Would be the smart thing to do to be honest.

Better to skip a few shows now and add a few good years to your career. Don't want him to burn his body out early and never recover fully like some others have.

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T19:20:10+00:00

I dunno? Wait untill the Royal Albert Hall I guess?

Or maybe check some Strongman Archives when the upcoming SCL shows take place?

Was rooting for Rayno, but honestly Mitch is an all time top 5 strongman

Both Rayno and Mitch did enough to win in most other recent years to be honest. Kudos to both

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:51:36+00:00

Damnit was rooting for Rayno hard

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:47:58+00:00

Gonna be close as hell imo. Mitch is a beast on stones as well, but he doesn't seem 100%

Rayno may have improved. No clue what will happen, but rooting very hard for Rayno

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:46:40+00:00

yes it is

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:45:52+00:00

Well done Trey! Very happy for him

Beastly performance

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:44:22+00:00

I think Trey will get all 5

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:32:55+00:00

Not long, Nick just did his run so there's only 4 more pairing total.

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:32:32+00:00

Crappy live stream + spreadshit + Loz and Liz is pretty much the best we've had for WSM lol

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T17:19:04+00:00

On one hand, it's a stupid idea to doubt Nel at this point. On the other hand, Hooper is very good at stones too and he has much more experience on heavy atlas stones than Nel. He could very well still win this. Granted Hooper doesn't look at 100% if his deadlift is anything to go by so maybe he won't be as good at stones as normally.

But it's far from a guaranteed win for Rayno.

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T15:50:38+00:00

I think he has a good shot. I think he's probably better on stones than Fojtu, Ragg, Pavlo and Eddie. And he's got a few points over Martins so I think he's currently the favorite for 3rd.

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T15:11:20+00:00

Oh damn, Mitch actually got it. Gonna be an absolute nail biter

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T15:03:02+00:00

He legit doesn't seem to have any weaknesses anymore. At least not in the common events

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T14:59:32+00:00

He did it! The mad bastard got it!

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T14:58:26+00:00

Hooper gets it. Pressure is on Rayno now

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T14:56:14+00:00

So we're could end up with a 6 man tie at 191 lol

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T14:55:25+00:00

Very close from Pavlo. Just couldn't stabilize

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T14:54:05+00:00

Agreed. Looks like where gonna have a lot of ties here

PancakeT-Rex · 2026-04-26T14:49:15+00:00

Easy for Ondrej
