The first one to leave a message. How honored I am. This film will hopefully bring Armwrestling where it should be: in the public consciousness. It is the end all of ancient sport. Two men, one victor, and dignity for both. Go John go!!!!
Being friends with this team from day one (armwrestling) has been an over whelming experience and their integrity to succeed has heighten this sport to a history record level. The director and producer are the best this sport has ever witness and seeing the teaser has me convinced that armwrestling will make the charts and be recognized as a professional sport.
Thanks Vassiliki (Bessie), Navid and Sevan you’re the best.
So have we got any idea on a release date yet? An how will I be able to get my hands on the film? I live in NC.
I saw Bessie and Sevan workin professionally hour after hour on “PJ” in europe.and i told to my brother: this guys seems to be really dedicated..the result will be Great..no doubt.. and now it is a honour to me to be the first one from europe here to Thank all of them for their Huge passion to make this happen!!. alot of people over here are counting the time down for this big popularity opportunity for the Armwrestlingworld!!after 20 Years (Over the Top).Never ending THANKS TO THE CREW!.

Salve.Vorrei sapere come è possibile sfidare John Brzenk per dimostrare al mondo intero che non l’America ad avere gli atleti mogliori.Gradita risposta in lingua italiana.Grazie.
Wow, what a great way to credit the legend John Brzenk, a man who definetly deserves the title as a legend in the sport of armwrestling!The sport has been growing fast in the last six years, thanks to Gary Roberts, founder of ArmsTv, and because of all of the dedicated sponsors and armwrestlers of this sport. I hope to see it continue to grow and become one of the top sports worldwide in everybody’s eye’s. GO Kansas City, Armscontrol!
i am 100% john brzenk fan, have been since highschool, and i’m so excited for this movie coming out. I only wish it would come out in theatres first. I hope one day to meet the legend face to face, and shake his hand, and after i recover from the pain, tell him it’s an honor to meet him.

Will the film be just 83 minutes long? It should be longer, 2 hours or something. Can’t wait, though, will it be in theaters or straight to dvd?

i can’t wait for this dvd to come out im buying one as soon as it come out
Thanks guys,
The trenches it is.
I know what it took to make this film. It is truly unbelievable what it takes. Thanks for all you tireless time spent on this project.
I cannot wait to see this movie. I am a distant relative of Richard Lupkes, who defeated John earlier this year. It is truely too bad that the movie was not made after Richard’s comeback. To see him speak of Richard, telling the world that Lupkes is the physically strongest man he has ever been up against must be a great honor to Rich. John seems like a great man. The movie should be awesome!
HI THERE
WHEN WILL THE MOVIE BE OUT. I MET JOHN IN VEGAS IN 86, AT THE OVER THE TOP PULL. I WAS WITH RICHARD LUPKES. WHAT ALONG DAY AND NIGHT THAT WAS. WILL NEVER FORGET RICHARD AND ED ARNOLDS MATCH. AND ALSO CLEVE DEAN AND SCOTT NORTON, WHAT AN UPSET THAT WAS. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO ED.
I can still remember the Pulling John R.V. sitting in font of my house for days and people wondering what the hell it was …and all the laughing in my backyard and at Travis’s Events….. Wish you Guys the best …cant wait to see it
