Oh wow. Sorry about that. These videos are awesome. I think it all looks like a blast. Interested to see a video of the last obstacle chen was talking about. seems like a pulley system

Not a fan of that wall, honestly. Way too excessive for a qualifying obstacle.

This is literally on the last page And I'm kind of iffy on if I like that as obstacle 9, I agree it is a bit excessive, but at the same time if we had the long Body Prop and had that twice it's not THAT bad

So I guess this is where Vince Russo got his new job Seriously whoever came up with that unstable bridge jump thingy is a massive plonker, it looks so dangerous, and unfair as hell. Also WTF is that wall... This is only the qualifiers and most Americans fail a lot (no offence Americans but you havent done great over the past 6 seasons +ANC ) yet seems like they went from SASUKE 18 to SASUKE 19 just for Qualifiers alone... RAGEEEEEEE #FireRusso

RAGEEEEEEE #FireRusso This can't be a Russo made course. If it was, one of the obstacles would be retrieving something off a pole

Don't a lot of people fail the sasuke trials? I know Vince was the creative writer with various wrestling organizations, but where does retrieving something from a pole come into play Rider?

Among wrestling fans, Vince Russo is known for a ton of bad gimmick matches, one of his favorite gimmick matches was the "____ on a pole" match, where the way to win the match was pulling something off a pole mounted in one of the corners. Russo was known for stupid pole matches like "Viagra on a Pole", "Pinata on a Pole", or "Judy Bagwell on a Forklift" to name a couple examples, I really wish I was making those matches up but nope, actually happened...

Well, if you don't touch the second unstable knee bridge but land on the landing platform you're disqualified.

I want to say I wasn't keeping track 7-8 runs in, but this is what I have so far: **updated through night** *tapping out * total fails:90 Total Clears: 7 Unstable Knee: 21 Play Ground: 14 Tilting Table: 7 Silk slider: 30 [1]Unknown: 18
[1]Unknow meaning they fell on the course, but I couldn't see where OR they were disqualified.

Going back to hotel with my dad. We watched past David Campbell's run and now we are on our way back. I thought it was amazing, except trying to get in was horrible (very unorganized). I liked all the obstacles except for the hour glass drop (the unstable bridge trampoline thing). I met some guys because there was no seats for them to put us in for a while and they put the people that were let in the same time as me into where everyone was after their runs. So we got a good view and got to meet tons of people and state there until they made us move at like 1:30. I got to meet Mesa, some other guys who's names I didn't catch sadly. I got to see Alan Connealy, Yen, Brian Kretch (hope you are doing better), Flip, James, Kacy (for all the people who hate the promotion she is getting she announced during some runs), and David. Cannot wait to go tonight and see semi-finals.

I think the thread title should include "SPOILERS".

I think if you come here snooping around for information but then get upset when you find it, you deserve to have the results spoiled.
