The two Strongmen will take on arm wrestling toward the end of 2024.
Brian Shaw has taken on many different challenges over the course of his career. Now, he will venture into the world of arm wrestling and do so against another legendary Strongman.
Shaw announced on YouTube that he will make his arm wrestling debut in a match against Eddie Hall in December.
“He said that he wanted to challenge me to an arm wrestling match. I didn’t think he was that serious but that thought has not left his mind, and he wants to be my entrance into the sport of arm wrestling.”

Both Brian Shaw and Eddie Hall have been training in different ways since Strongman. This includes an MMA event that ended up falling through due to contract issues. Now, the two legends will step up to the table in arm wrestling.
“There is a period of learning that has to happen with me getting into arm wrestling. There are a lot of physical attributes that can benefit me in arm wrestling. I have to learn how to arm wrestle. This was the way that I approached Strongman as well.”
