No offense to Joe, but I don't think he belongs in the conversation.
In ANW the contenders are Isaac Caldiero, Geoff Britten, Ian Dory, and maybe Brian Arnold and Josh Levin.
I think you nailed the top 3 in Sasuke: Yusuke, Tomo, and Ryo.
Overall if I had to take one, it would be Yusuke.

Hmm... Considering Drew is very all around, he can fit here too. Yeah Yusuke is probably best in Japan but both Tomo and Keitaro could also be contenders.

Yusuke by far - he weights nothing and his strength to weight is insane.
Ryo is a close second
Josh Levin, I believed, was arguably the strongest before we saw him fail the Wingnuts on Stage 2. However now I think it belongs to Ian Dory or Geoff Britten.

If we're counting anyone who's competed on Sasuke, I'd say Keita Tomino (Unlimited Cliffer #4) is up there as well. He's only competed on Sasuke once, but he's shown his insane grip strength on his YouTube channel in the past.

However now I think it belongs to Ian Dory or Geoff Britten. He lost his grip on the Double Wedge too. funny thing - he beat the ANW8/9 cliffhanger, arguably the most difficult upper body obstacle (I still do not understand how Joe made that down-right transition in ANW9) aside from the Vertical Limit, Final Climb; but he fell due to lack of grip on the Double Wedge AND Wingnuts. I'd say it's because his endurance isn't as good as short bursts of power/strength due to the time limit on Stage Two. |

Worth noting that in ANW 10, he had spent over a minute on Catch and Release (via his Insta). |
