I'm surprised there's not a few more names in the supers that I'd have liked to have seen! Is this and invite only event?

Hopefully we'll get some badass vids like last time! The benching for dollars pics and vids were sweet too!

TBH, unless Kennelly enters, I don't see anyone taking this from Siders.

They could bring in Mendy or whoever. But raw? It's Siders.

Good to see RAW benchpressing being put in the spotlight again.

Tha'ts why I'm excited about this meet. It's raw! Kennelly was the one I was hoping would enter but, sometimes you gotta sit back and "break bread with your homies" so they can eat too. Can't go out and win everything I guess.

Kennelly's currently rehabing a torn groin muscle that he suffered during squat training a couple of weeks ago.

We've already extended an open invitation for him to bench at The Olympia in 2008's Kings of the Bench if he decides that he wants to.
