I love this competition, but it needs to be more accessible!

[@fewny2691]

they have contracts with CBS that prohibited them from posting it until after it aired on TV

[@Jetplan36]

@@fewny2691 then they should post the full comp now for the many many people unable to watch previously

[@fewny2691]

@@Jetplan36 they are uploading one full event every day for the next 40ish days, if they upload the entire show then they get less views and worse watchtime

[@-GangsterParadise-]

Honestly!

[@RageDirtyIrby]

Yeah I love this comp but It’s needs to be easier to consume for fans. Rouge did a great job

[@josephlabajosa4075]

Wow! Been following wsm ever since travis ortmayer was the kid/new comer, now he's the freakin' "old man" of the show.

[@bagaskarahadjarputra6070]

Maxime Boudreault is another great "threat" addition to both of the WSM heats and Finals, looking forward to him 😁

[@dannybiddlecombe]

Oh, I see. Post the footage a YEAR AFTER the competition finished.

Now now, it's only been 7 months. Dont be so hasty 😉

[@SaltandDragons]

It's still interesting.

[@soarin5814]

They cannot post it, until it is official, TV is their main income. The footage you see in TV has to go through a lot of sectors, such as translations, etc, which takes time. Which then equals being aired on TV around Christmas days. Also considering TV crowd is still the biggest crowd they earn money from, letting them know who is the WSM this year beforehand, would downgrade the interest in seeing the show. Even tho, it is so easy to find out straight, who has won it.

[@conormoran5466]

1 min in and iv heard young man old man 10 times. I get it now enough

[@SaltandDragons]

Brian and Travis where very impressive in this event.

[@jasonderosa1137]

CBS needs to allow WSM to stream it live or at least air the show sooner. I hate waiting for Christmas and staring at spreadsheets to see who won. Plus they don't show over half the competitors or events in the show!

[@Juliussmoothie]

Hopefully WSM can do things different business wise that lets the show be uploaded much, much sooner

[@user-pj4rf1jf9d]

What a difficult challenge, frame carry after that barrels

[@rthelionheart]

Brian loses to much time taking his gloves off. Every second does count.

[@megapower6065]

Boudreault the best

[@peaceloveforever88]

great

[@fewny2691]

It didn't end up mattering in the grand scheme of things, but Brian could have won this event if he didn't use the gloves.
