Amanda lasted around a respectful 5 minutes in a pole wrestle against Desi, arguably one of the strongest women ever. She's got that dawg in her, she's just, in general, massively undersized.

As Katie's #1 stan, she isn't beating anyone in anything physical lol. All her eliminations should be milk baths.

Oldschooler remains very biased but very logical lol.

Jonna below KA and Nurys?

Jonna below KA and Nurys?

Jonna gives me a "gets hit by someone really hard and loses track of what she's doing". Kellyanne is undersized but she's a little crazy, maybe I'm ranking her too high. I'm near certain Nurys beats Jonna in a Hall Brawl.

 

Did y'all see how Nurys performed on all the physical parts of S39 final? All Nurys has is mouth. She is not beating Tina in a hall brawl. Her only chance would be Katie. Amanda and Michele are a toss up.

She's beating Amanda.   I'm not sure Amanda beats Katie.  But yeah Nurys is way too high.  Aneesa's too high in present day as well...she still has to make it to the bell.

Aneesa has the ability to hold nearly anyone I listed below her and pull them to her bell. I think everyone from Rachel to Aviv could beat her 2 out of 3, but they'd be underdogs IMO.

She did not push Kailah in the water and had Tory on the ground at some point to be underrated like this Sad

Wrestling from a steady state is different than running and hitting, IMO.

Jonna didn't wreck kailah and slam tori just to be put behind skinny nurys. 

Tori absolutely ragdolled Jonna on USA2. It wasn't a close elimination.

Jonna slammed Tori a few times which is way more than nurys could ever do. Doesn't matter if it was close

The only reason Amanda lasted so long was because the shape of the pole, it was too big to simply lift her up with it.

Okay, y'all actually convinced me. Jonna above Nurys and Kellyanne.

Pole wrestling is about fight ang grip strength.  Has nothing to do with a Hall Brawl.

Despite what the challenge wants us to think, hallbrawl is a lame elimination, 9 out of 10 times the person who weighs more will just win, there's a few exceptions but still.

They are similar skills, IMO. If you survive the initial crash and you and your opponent wrap up, it becomes more about wrestling and grappling and getting around your opponent. Those skills translate to Pole Wrestle very well.

Oppenheimer from free agents was better than hall brawl

Not remotely close

Agreed

The one bear & Joss did was my favorite of the variations.

Screw, marry, kill: Devun, Josh, Johnny

In physical matchups, Amanda did well against Jenna and Nicole; people forget that.

I'd put her above Katie, Michele, KellyAnne, and maybe Nurys just because I think Nurys is faster. But Amanda is crafty despite her size; she'll draw out a match longer than she should. Tori was really the only one to gag her outright.

(And, maybe Tina who is bigger but if Amanda can hold her off long enough she might be able to gas her.)

I'm drawing a blank on the Jenna elimination but when she was head-to head with Nicole it wasn't about strength but strategy because it was just the first foot out.   Nothing like a Hall Brawl.

The Redemption Challenge on D30. Jenna and Amanda went at it for a while before Jenna finally dropped her in the water.

Yeah, and CJ won against Zach, based mainly on strategy, so unless it's an impossible size difference, someone can pull off an upset. Amanda would do well against those girls because, while close in size, she's crafty. Especially facing people bigger than you consistently will give you a little more grit when facing someone near your size.

Oh...that platform wrestling was weird because it wasn't true wrestling. It was try not to fall and if you do take the other person.

CJ might be a better athlete and Zach.  CJ wasn't exactly a little guy. 

You have more confidence in Amanda than I do.  Tori made her look like Jasmine.  Maybe I'm not giving her enough credit but I just dony see it at all.

Screw: Devin 

Marry: Bananas 

Kill: Josh 

I'm really tired of Rachel constantly kissing production ***. She could learn a thing or two from Jordan, who won fair and square. Maybe she's overcompensating because she needed some help from production with their little dumb twist.

She's fighting for her life to get that money lol

All she gotta do is **** production instead of praising them nonstop online lmaooo. I wonder how Veronica feels about it

She also has such a God complex where she thinks she is saving the show- so annoying

Her, Mark, and John are so ridiculous

Rachel was off the show for over a decade.  She can't take the same stance as Jordan if she wants to return.  Just reality 

Leroy's best showing is still battle of the exes 2. That elimination was hard to watch, I won't call him a flop but man..I just felt bad for him. IDK if he doesn't train or what but he's still in the best shape ever, so I just don't understand.
