So apparently Chris Warnky (Michelle's dad) waited in the walk-on line for 2 WEEKS. I'm not saying there should be favoritism for top competitors' family members, but with ANW's obsession with people over 60 and the fact that he's Michelle Warnky's FATHER, I'm shocked he didn't get a call.

I mean do we know the full story? It could have been after the submission window and he got the idea to go on, everyone assumes the Walk-On line is all people who didn't make the cut but you'd be surprised how many people go that didn't get their entry in in time.

Would be surprised if his daughter didn't tell him anything. I can understand not calling him. He's a huge personality, but he's just not as skilled as some of the other older guys.

I'll give you that first point, but doesn't mean he was able to get a submission ready in time (even with the months you have) As for the second point... >Seeing the past 2 seasons of ANW >Thinking skill matters over personality these days Good joke you got there

Definitely smaller than the Sasuke gap. James McGrath reached across it. Probably about a 4-5 foot gap if I had to guess Based on what Akbar said,the gap is 6.5ft ,the ledges are 2inches deep,and there is also a 2ft gap in the first horizontal section Bonus information,also they said that the first peg of the second part of the Ring Jump is 10 inches tall

I kinda laughed at the name of The Pocono Ninja, since "The Poconos?" was a meme on reddit.
Nice to see two women finish the course, and I definitely noticed Flex playing the N64. Probably playing Mario Kart 64.
The Beast made the Spider Flip look like a joke.
Hated the fact that they FF'd the fastest time of the night. That must be on top of the priority list of actual runs shown.
Good episode overall.

Did anyone else notice that they spoiled Mike Bernardo's run in a commercial break prior? They showed him yelling "I love Cleveland!" and you could see the celebratory smoke behind him...

Yeah I noticed it and there are terrible with spoilers (Revealed Top 30 San Antonio, Top 15 Daytona, and Top 30 Kansas City during the Premiere)

Was that Michael Torres jumping every rung on the first half of the Ring Jump? Super impressive. Showing Mike's story and full run really made the episode for me. Not showing DeFranco sort of dampened my enthusiasm a bit, but I would still say favorite episode so far this season just over San Antonio. I was surprised to see only 14 finishers. The modified Ring Jump was far more brutal than I expected, although I think another reason for the low finisher number was due to the horrible casting decisions in the region. Pretty much everyone I hoped would make it to the finals did, except LUIS MOCO. NOOOOOO Also, since qualifiers have aired now, I'd be interested to hear if madship has any interesting behind-the-scenes stories from qualifying.

I am upset that Luis Moco got cut (I am not sure if Chris Wilczewski competed)
They cut Dan Galiczynski, Tyler Cravens, and Meiling Huang
They digest Jamie Rahn, Anthony DeFranco, Rachel Goldstein, Michael Torres, and Mike Meyers

Someone asked him about it on his latest Instagram post, and he said he's taking this season off.
