In the end, all the athletes showed tremendous class and respect for each other while putting their bodies on the line for the sake of national pride. With the teams splitting the first two matches, the third iteration of World’s Strongest Nation should be even more competitive. Only time will tell if Team USA can become the first back-to-back winners in the competition’s short history.
