WSM 2017 Finalists(Spoilers, unofficial but mostly confirmed)

[EpicLevelWizard]

Top 2 from each group in order

Thor Bjornsson
Martins Licis

Brian Shaw
JF Caron

Konstantin Janashia
Loz Shahlaei

Eddie Hall
Mateusz Kieliszkowski

Nick Best
Big Z

Biggest surprise so far is Nick Best beat Big Z & Terry Hollands in his group.

My prediction for top 3 in order

Thor(did the best in all heats by far from results I've seen and dominates moving events & throws over everyone, his pressing & squatting are miles over where they used to be too)

Eddie(the final is literally tailored to him as it's half static with a max deadlift, squats, and Viking press; clearly WSM is playing favorites as his fame has popped up a notch with the documentary)

Shaw probably 3rd unless he wins on consistent 2nd places, he can't beat Eddie static and it's him or Thor for moving/throws/stones.

Quite literally all 10 are very tough this year, the underdogs that could topple the top 4 are definitely Martins Licis and Nick Best, best showing up tougher and stronger than ever at 48 years old and Licis putting up static numbers with the big guys and moving like Pudzianowski in his prime, a fit fast and strong overall athlete.

10)Best 9

My predicted final standings

Eddie Hall always seems compete carrying an injury, especially in WSM. If he comes in at full health I think he might sneak it this year.
