USA vs The World: Women's Edition


ANW will have to do a special edition for the women now that Jessie Graff was the first woman in ANW history to complete Stage 1. Who would you pick for the USA, Japan & European teams? I honestly don't any of the women from Europe and the UK, but the two teams I choose are

Team Japan

Yuko Mizuno
Rie Komiya
Chie Tanabe-Nishimura
Maho Tanaka
and
Satomi Kadoi

(I would pick Ayako Miyake, but she would turn it down)


Team USA

Jessie Graff
Kacy Catanzaro
Meagan Martin
Michelle Warnky
and
Natalie Duran

Why not Lebreck who legitimately made the vegas finals this year. Kacy and Warnky are the weaker links these days.

Wouldn't surprise me but it would be pretty boring.


What am I gonna do... with a gun rack?

reply

Boring???? Have you ever watched Kunoichi (Women Of Ninja Warrior) before?

reply

If I remember correctly, the strong females have accomplished:

- Got past Vegas: Stage 1 - Jessie Graff (2016)

- Qualified to Vegas - Jessie Graff (2016, 2015), Meagan Martin (2016), Jessie LeBreck, (2016), Kacy Catanzaro (2014)

- Qualified for City Finals - Jessie Graff (2016, 2015), Meagan Martin (2016, 2015,2014), Jessie LeBreck (2016), Kacy Catanzaro (2014), Natalie Duran (2016), Michelle Warnky (2016, 2014), Allyssa Bierd (2016), Rachael Goldstein (2016)

Thoughts:
- Only Jessie, Meagan, Jessie, Kacy and Michelle have gone up the warped wall
- Although Kacy Catanzaro has been strong in the past, she has not been performing well recently

That being said, my team would include:
- Jessie Graff
- Meagan Martin
- Jessie LeBrek
- Michelle Warnky
- Kacy Catanzaro

What about Team Japan?

reply

The best would be using the American ladies you listed versus the top rated Japanese MEN. They've been horrible competing against us, this would make it more competitive, but we would still win

reply

This is about the women of NW and Kunoichi, not the Battle Of The Sexes!

reply

It would be such a shame if Miyake wouldn't play.

reply

Where do you watch the other teams perform?

reply

Terrible idea. Almost none of them will be able to finish any of the stages. None of them would make it up the rope in 35 seconds.

reply

Are you that idiotic? Have you ever seen Kunoichi before?
