EDDIE IS NOT IMPRESSED WITH BRIAN SHAW'S ARMWRESTLING..

[@hemmydall]

Eddie definitely has better potential in arm wrestling than he ever did in boxing. Hope they both stay in and develop in the sport.

Thats not saying much! Lol

[@phothewin6019]

That’s the vibe I was getting. It would’ve been bad if Brian lost after all of the hype and support. That’s the issue when the armwrestling community hypes up a newcomer too much. It builds a lot more expectations and puts extra pressure on that newcomer. They don’t want Brian to be another Larry Wheels.

He is always robotic in every practice video, but that match is on different low

[@captainamerica8172]

@edgaralanpoe2808 Yeah, not sure why that is. I kind of think it's because he doesn't want to go full force and hurt the other person, or maybe he's just focusing too my on the technical aspect.

Lol yea right

[@davidguardino1750]

Enough already with this crap. Brian dominated that match and the only real win he got was the one round with the strap. If they would have gone back to the strap I would have bet the house Brian still dominates. The overall power and strength Brian showed Eddie really had no answer for. Eddie and Neil have been from the beginning that we only had 6 weeks blah blah blah Liars!!! Eddie has been AW on and off for years and Neil trained him about 2 years ago when Eddie first got interested. Fact is Eddie has had much more table time in matches than Brian 'Godzilla' Shaw. What is with you all you Eddie sycophant haters?

[@jebudylajtwejt8051]

They said they had 8 weeks

[@Rondigity92]

Eddie "if i wanted to i could have won 5 WSM too"

[@jebudylajtwejt8051]

Yes, he also thought he could deadlift 550kg if he wanted to. But only when Haftor approached 501kg, before that he said that the 500 kilos almost killed him and he didn't think anyone would beat his record in his lifetime. Eddie can change his mind quickly if it pays off for him

[@Rondigity92]

@jebudylajtwejt8051 don't get me wrong, I love eddie... but saying "I could have won if I wanted to" just takes the piss out of the sport he just claimed to want to endorse.

if they were on straps eddie would win, even tho i was hyped with brian. eddie let brian win so that this hype could continue.

[@phothewin6019]

I think so too. Eddie (and everyone else) knew that it would be bad if Brian lost to a guy who just trained for a couple of weeks. Especially after all of the hype and support from the community. Might’ve been more disappointing than Larry Wheels. They don’t want Brian to be the next Larry Wheels. That’s the problem when people keep hyping up Brian as a potential Levan-slayer in the future. It puts absurd pressure and expectations on him.

It’s insanely hard to hold someone that strong. Idc how strong Brian’s grip is. Eddy is probably exaggerating a bit but I do think if he really wanted to slip he probably could have. Seemed like it was an ego thing since he was getting on Brian earlier in the match for slipping

​@@zane01235 It was 5-1 Brian lol Eddie literally pinned him one time and that's it. Eddie got one score because of Brian's own foul mistakes, not an actual pin. Want to know something else? Brian pinned him a fifth time, but it didn't count. Brian literally pinned Eddie's hand to the pad five times. That is physically accurate.

[@rexcelent8560]

If only eddie just slipped we could had seen a different result

[@andrewclester7227]

Eddie lost. Brian won. It's that simple. It wasn't even close. Brian won 4 out of 6 rounds, and one of the rounds he lost was because he fouled out. It was an absolutely dominant victory. Even if they did a match that was straps only, I don't think Eddie wins simply because he won one round with straps in this match.

[@s-saloon8985]

Watching the match over and over I do believe that Eddie could have slipped out to the straps. Pride or whatever got in the way. Love both of them.

[@devonsstemcells1442]

Eddie is so full of shit H won one match. If they would have went to strap again Brian and Devon would have figured it out. Eddie will never beat brian.

[@mikael1852]

They both did great. Eddie hqd better flow and technique but Brian was way stronger. Im not sure Eddie would win even if they got more strap rounds. Brian had all of the american pullers guiding him, and he himself is very intelligent. He would have adjusted.

[@sergejmaher144]

Eddie could have won if he didnt have this crazy idea that going to strap is soft

[@thedrew24]

KZbin algorithm boosting comment 💪 ... Brian going to tournaments, might be a logistical nightmare for him, might be too much fanatical attention. and ya, maybe the Shaw Classic would be the only way.

[@TheShamrockKing]

The strap didn't help him at all....what helped him was getting in brians head before GO. Eddie was constantly yelling that Brian was loading and Eddie was just fast off the snap...and that was is shown in every attempt that Eddie got the better of Brian. Brian has no defense for sure tho and I was very surprised at Eddies defense for such little training u can see he understood the dynamics much better than it seem Brian did which u can tell in his training videos that some of the dynamics seem odd or foreign to him so he struggles to have that instinct that Eddie seems to possess.

[@LuLzzz390]

Yes but no... The biggest factor that led to him winning that round was that with the straps eddie was finally able to apply his back pressure to stonewall bryan and pin him back something that he was unable to do before due to brian constantly bending his wrist back, It's not like the trash talk magically made him win once he got the straps.

[@TheShamrockKing]

@ Eddie did the same thing in another round without straps. It wasn't exactly trash talk it was basically convincing Brian to back off during the set up and then taking advantage of Brian not being ready enough for the start of the match.

Doesn't have more potential man, smaller frame

Na Eddy is more of a natural on the table but Brian’s hand and wrist give him more potential long term. He’s also able to pack on more weight. It will just take him longer to get fluid on the table due to how massive he is

[@mootzartdev]

@@zacrongaming2908 Eddie has achieved greater feats of strength then Brian in essentially every major lift. Of course its not directly related to arm-wrestling.. but they where both perusing the same thing at those times and Eddie was better. I think Eddie would be more interesting, more stylistic, more dexterous, entertaining etc. Which the potential im gauging more then just being massive. Yeah like of course a elephant has more potential then a gorilla in terms of how much damage they can do to a fence... ( i know that is a extreme and so so analogy.. but you get me im sure ). I don't think it always comes down to mass and frame in this sport with potential.. look at Devon. He beats much bigger framed people easy. He is only bigging up Brian to try to take down Levan in the future I think. As mass beats mass combined with styles make matches. I personally don't find the monster sized arm wrestlers as interesting as well. Its like they are decent arm wrestlers.. but their superiority is purely their size.. But i do get what you guys are saying. I would watch Eddie matches.. i dont think id pay for Brian matches really
