In a similar vein to the Ninja Killers thread, I'd have to ask you guys: What do you feel would be the Warrior Wipeouts in a G4 broadcast of this event?
I personally feel that we'll see three or so: Tomoya Haga for his painful flip over the Flying Chute rope, Wakky for his painful butt-first landing on the Jumping Spider pad, and probably Bunpei Shiratori for his unexpected Downhill Jump crash-n-burn. (IMO Sasuke 21 will be another 5-parter but I could be wrong.)
Though, I'm debating between Haga and Naoki Iketani, who had a similar fall from the 'Chute.
Any ideas, anyone?

I'd definitely agree with those. They might add Mark Witmer or Luci Romberg's wipeouts too. If they did a Stage 2 one, it definitely would have to be Levi's for his unsuspected failure on the Salmon Ladder.

Stage 1 would be the flip over the Flying Chute, Stage 2 would DEFINITLY be Nakata Daisuke, and Stage 3 I doubt would have a warrior wipeout but if I had to pick one of the 3 its probably Nagano's on the Gliding Ring.

Yeah, but they probably won't do a Stage 3 wipeout - only three guys made it there and that wouldn't be enough for one episode of NW. And even so, Nagano would probably be the last guy up anyway.

Iketani's flip over the flying chute looked more painful than tomaya haga's did

It's a good thing he hit the rope. Had he not, he probably would have flown past the net as fast as he was going.

Iketani's didn't look more painful at all...
THe other guy hit the rope, that hurts, Iketani just flew over it and fell into the water.
Iketani probably didn't feel any pain at all.

Well I only saw Sasuke 21 once... If that's true I take my statement back. You have NO idea how painful that would be.

Whose nuts?...
...yeah, anyway, I'm leaning more towards Haga getting the wipeout of an episode. And does anyone else agree about Wakky's painful butt-first experience on the Jumping Spider?

Yeah, Wakky's was pretty nasty.
Besides, what if BOTH Haga and Iketani get a wipeout? If G4 edit's it that way, the two of them could be in seperate episodes and both given the "award."

Yeah, it'd be close, but I think Wakky deserves one. Assuming Sasuke 21 will be a 5-parter on G4, and if Iketani's happened to be in the same episode as Wakky's, I think they'd pick the latter only because Haga's (from the episode prior, for argument's sake) was similar.
And I still think Shiratori will get one for his Downhill Jump disaster.

For Stage 2 I definitly think that Nakata Daisuke would get the Warrior Wipeout and not Shiratori Bunpei.

Doubtful. While Nakata's attempt at the Salmon Ladder was painful to watch, it wasn't the disasterous wipeout that Shiratori took at the beginning of his run. I wouldn't be suprised if they just fast forwarded through Nakata. After all, it is G4.

How? He hurt his wrists, then he hurt them worse on his Downhill Jump landing, then while he was in pain he still kept trying the Salmon Ladder then fell.

Point taken, but it didn't look like as much of a wipeout as his painful Arm Rings attempt in 17 did. Shiratori's fall from the Downhill Jump, now THAT looked like a wipeout.

Then explain how he got the Warrior Wipeout in 17 on the Arm Rings? In fact they said one of the reasons was because it was long and drawn out pain.
