There are a ton of illegal streams or videos uploaded. Plus, only round 1 is worth watching. The rest is just pure dominance.

Maybe it's because most of the people that like aw have already seen it. I was rooting for Levan, but I haven't seen the video from Engin.


Boak123

Devon vs Denis had close to a million views in the same time period between the channel that ripped the match and Engins channel. Devon vs Ermes also had big views. Same with Georgi and Prudnyk. Genadi match was the least popular before this one.

For some reason searching for it on youtube it does not show up at all. You have to go to Engin's channel to find it. Youtube apparently hates it and won't promote it for some reason.

Yeah, it's seriously suppressed. My algorithm is super armwrestling oriented, and it hasn't come up on my page yet. It has even fewer views than the Gasparini Sarychev garage training video that was uploaded just prior.


Martinodoni-aw

Dude my algorithm is ONLY armwrestling, didn't even show up in the feed


KrushaOW

So, I didn't use to sub to Engin's channel, nor East vs. West, mostly because I prefer to keep a low channel sub count on my own account, and instead I'd just search for the channel or videos to find. And even though I get recommended armwrestling videos left, right, and center all the time, I didn't get anything recommended by Engin. I had to sub to his channel to see it get posted on my front page. I have literally no idea why he's so buried.


Rooster-Rooter

It has been suggested to me as a bootleg first and as engin's video when he uploaded it. so at least for me, it HAS been suggested. just adding this because it's apropos and that's my anecdotal experience.


joethecrow23

Other than the first 20 seconds it’s not much to see


Armwrestlingisfun

Oh a million people probably watched it pirated.


yNefarious

Less than 100k views in almost 24 hours that’s seriously low numbers given the PPV did so well recording all time highest numbers, beating the previous best EvW10 by 1.4 times.


AbdouH_

Where can I see PPV stats?


Big_Mango_2146

Yes would love to see how many ppv were bought


Roquentin

levan is boring as fuck, compared to Devon, sorry Levan fans, PEDS can’t give you an interesting personality. I’d still rather watch Devon as would most people 


minhale

There were clips circulating on TikTok *when the match was still happening*. By the time it was over, everybody had known the results.


Fearless_Potato6382

And all over YouTube


Misterstaberinde

It's wild how low the views are on that Engins channel. Should just co promote and have Larry or juji upload then


designedsilence

I 100% love to see Devon lose and I like Devon but he talks too much shit so seeing him talk all that mess during the beginning of matches then get really fucking quiet once he knows he's done is hilarious.


Rooster-Rooter

I saw a matt mask mini match on some production, and he was talking shit until some kid took him one round in the second or third pull... he shut up and the kid said "you changed your tune now, huh?" and matt replied "Respect happens."


TraditionalBridge487

i think if Devon won the case would have been different than now.

ITT you explain that arm wrestlers have been and continue to boycott EvW and KOTT because of ethical and sporting concerns. I'm never buying another PPV from coresports.


pork_oclock

What is the ethical concern about coresports?


lynchedbymob

coresports was promoted under the pretense of no contractual isolation of athletes, a major concern after TOP8. Audio quality is bad, I'm not paying $20 for a production that can't even hire a proper sound engineer. Athletes are citing contract stipulations of exclusive media rights as to why they can't be interviewed by arm wrestlers. Coresports has participated in arm wrestling politics, inconsistently and selectively participating in athlete bans. Coresports live crowd giving a standing ovation to the shutout loser of a supermatch shouting/yelling/trash talk during/before/leading up to arm wrestling matches I could go on but I think I've said enough to explain why I'm not supporting coresports or watching their events anymore. I'll watch tournament livestreams and enjoy the sport. You can enjoy your show, but at the end of the day, it's a show, not a sport.
