Auden Larratt vs Korean Hulk ｜ King Of The Table 12 Full Match

My name is Auden Larratt, and I train out of the Ottawa High Hawkers. That is in Ottawa, Canada, as you'd expect. And I am getting ready to destroy Korean Hulk, who is an absolute freak of nature. The biggest advantage I have over Korean Hulk, I would have to say, is my technical abilities. I think he's probably got me in strength. He's probably got me in maybe even speed and just horsepower. Pretty much across the board, it's going to be he is stronger than me. I think where I can win this match is just how much time and level I've committed to this sport, and maybe some genetic factors like hand size or arm length. His biggest strength has to be his sheer power. He is an absolute powerhouse. He has freaky numbers on the bench, freaky numbers on curl, freaky numbers on overhead press. Just stuff that I could never even imagine myself lifting. I think Auden's ability to control his hand is his biggest strength. Size definitely matters in this match. He outweighs me by about 35 kilos, which is quite significant. So he is coming in way bigger of an individual. I am taller and bigger frame, but he has incredibly compact muscle, incredible mass, incredible strength. He's basically as max as you can get at whatever his height is. Korean Hulk, you may be heavier, you may be stronger, but I'm willing to leave it all at the table. I'm coming to fight you. Ladies and gentlemen, his name is Ji Yong Ha, but you all know him as the Korean Hulk. What an impressive size of a human being the Korean Hulk is, but his opponent has taken the arm wrestling world by storm. Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the prodigy, Auden! And this is it. This is the main match for many people on this card. Auden Larratt, Korean Hulk. What do you think of Auden's song? I thought both choices of entrance were perfect. Absolutely. This match has been probably the most talked about match on the card. Auden Larratt and Korean Hulk. Absolutely. Look at the difference between these guys. Korean Hulk, much, much shorter. Auden Larratt has to come down. Let's see how he will deal with this. Most likely this match will go to the strap and referee's grip. 135 kilos Korean Hulk. I mean, only I think he comes in at about 5'3", 5'4". He's not the tallest bloke in the world, but geez, he is just an animal. He's built absolutely different. How much Auden weighed in, do you remember? No, I wasn't there for the weights. Maybe a little over 100 kilos, something like that? Yeah, it would have been like that. I'm surprised Korean Hulk's not using the riser, to be fair. He is using the riser. Well, he's... Oh, wow, he is too. My apologies, Korean Hulk. You short son of a gun. But I tell you what, he's a part of the 500 kilo crowd. Referee's grip, referee's grip, waiting for the setup. Let's see how this goes. So Auden on your left, Korean Hulk on the right. Korean Hulk gets close. You can see how much rise. And Auden just absolutely dominates easily. From the goal, takes over. We've seen Korean Hulk talking with referee a little bit there. Takes the loss 1-0. Absolutely dominated by Auden Larratt. So you saw there, Korean just couldn't get anything around Auden's hand. You can see his happy parents there, Devin and Jody. But yeah, Auden has come prepared. Auden has come ready. And he now leads this one 1-0. As they now switch sides there and the rise happens. I think Korean Hulk probably just needs a higher riser. He just needs something. It's been a while since he's been in the arm wrestling game, Korean Hulk. So is that playing a massive factor already? He looks a bit concerned. But Auden just looks in crew's control at the moment. Good start for the prodigy. He loves it, 1-0. Korean Hulk just needs to get in form and just see. I mean, look at the size of his forearm and bicep there. He just needs to somehow remember how to engage it so he can hold Auden in the middle of the table. Yeah, this looks like a little bit right now. If he doesn't get engaged, like a big, big mismatch. We're expecting a real tough war. But not a lot of fighting for the grip from Korean Hulk. Not a lot of action at all. But let's see, maybe he needs to warm up. Okay, absolutely completely different setup. Look where he sets up his leg on the... Auden uses it, puts it down. Korean Hulk cannot put his leg if Auden doesn't allow him. Yeah, so... If he can. We'll listen to him. Referees are explaining. Different setup. Korean Hulk believes he will drive very much sideways backwards. Not sideways, but backwards. I apologize. And it's referee's grip again. So referee's grip, so... Early days, Korean Hulk was putting his leg on the opposite side of the table and his opponent says he doesn't want it there. And Auden, the cheeky son of a gun, was doing all the tricks of the trade in this one. All the ladders are right there and they called it. He looked down, he's like, nope, nobody, no. They don't miss a beat here. So now we're into a referee's grip round number two. Waiting for it to go. Hands getting closed. Here we go. No, that's a foul. That's an elbow fail on Korean Hulk. I wouldn't give it a... Coincidental. No, one foul and one foul to Hulk. If it's a running foul, it's a pin. One foul. So one foul on Korean Hulk. Jiung Ha, not getting the start that he wants. Auden playing every tricks in the trade at the moment. But just looks to be in full control. You can hear Jody yelling out the commands. Korean Hulk needs to just come inside. Korean Hulk just needs to attack. But as you can see, big hand advantage going to Auden Larratt. Is that a slip? That's a good slip. I would love to see a replay on that one. Auden Larratt with a big hit there. And you can see him saying it was a pin. Hang on there, young fella. So here's the replay. Huge hit. Nah, Korean got out of there. In the center, in the center. Slip happened in the center. Yeah, he got out of it. Now let's see if anything changes in the strap. So Ray, if you're in Korean Hulk's corner right now, how are you telling him to get a grip? Because at the moment, Auden is getting everything in the middle of the table. Korean, he's just closing his hand. But his hand's much smaller than Auden. So what would you be doing for Korean right now? Listen, very hard for me to tell something to do. I really don't know his strengths and weaknesses, where he is good for people built like that. It's usually the inside game. But I see a lot of outside movements from him. So I believe he will post very high, clam down on his hand and try to top roll. And try not to get his wrist bent back. And if he can get that, we might have a match. So here we go. Round number two. Auden, good stop from Korean Hulk. But the re-grip and the hit. What do we see? What do we hear from wrestling? One elbow foul for Auden. Keep the elbow down, let's just do it again. That was a nice stop there from Korean Hulk. But yeah, just showing the difference between someone that's been in the game recently and someone that hasn't. Because the re-grip and the attack from Auden Larratt just showed some master class there. He's got to come down. Do not let him come down. Gets a stop. Yes! He gets a pin. Dang! 2-0 Auden Larratt. Finally gets it in there. Korean Hulk getting a stop. But it wasn't enough. Auden Larratt dominating. Dominated last time versus Whisper. Many people thought this match might be a little bit too much for him. But no. Now for those not enjoying the matches of Auden Larratt, you might say these are gimmick matches. But he's bringing people back into the sport. Which means they're bringing their followers new to the sport. And hopefully get some more arm-wrestling fans out there. And it's good to see the progression of Auden Larratt. You can tell he is an arm-wrestler. Just the adjustments he made in that last round to climb. To continue to hit. To put the pressure on that giant forearm that his man in the corner needs to answer. Just even try and get a little bit in there. I will rush him. I will. So now, can Korean Hulk bounce back? He got a little bit of a stop. But doesn't seem to have much more after that. Let's see what he can do right now. Absolute domination for Auden Larratt. Really no real stop. No real threats. Nothing. So next match after this one. Okay, Kai. Rob Vichen Jr. Well done, well done, well done. And we've got Chika. Okay, so back into the middle of the table now. If he closes his hand, we work out there. Shoulder? He needs to close his hand, yeah. If he doesn't have the grip, that's fine. Keep it down, keep it down. Yes, yes, keep it down. He has to keep it down. No, that's not a problem with me. That's on him. Making sure that he's studying the rules. Tiring out the Korean hold. So now we're into it. Round number three. Auden on the left. Korean on the right. Look at that. Where is my knuckle? He has to come down. He has to come way... Look, he's not... You can't even see my knuckle. Shoulder. Stop. Referee's grip. So into a referee's grip. Auden not happy with the setup. Yeah, same. All right, Korean putting in his final command as we get into it. Round number three. Referee's grip. Auden showing some dominance at the moment. Korean hold with just a little stop but not much more than that. You're seeing right in front of you, that's why we call Auden the prodigy. You're seeing him arm wrestle with the belt in front of us. Way to go early there. One warning. He went too. Don't pull me down so much, OK? I won't fight you there. OK. Yes. I'll come deeper. I'm liking the shaking this evening. There, is that better? I feel like he knows he's in a dominant position. He's doing the same. It's going to be very, very hard for him to lose from this position. Korean hold is looking not good, not comfortable, and getting exhausted. Yeah. So round three, here we go. That is him early. That is not coincidental. He went under. I did not. He went under. So coincidental foul. Auden not happy with the call. It makes your shoulder. It's a coincidental early start. Let's see if we can get round number three started. Time to start showing some dominance here, young fella. Thank you. Enough of the complaining. Start pinning now. Pinning and winning. That is under. Bang. 3-0. That's what we need from the prodigy now. When you know that you're in control, start to show dominance. Start to show everyone watching this live event that you are an arm wrestler. Start to show everyone, just like then, that you can hit. Hand control there. Bang. 3-0, Auden Larratt. Absolutely dominating performance from Auden Larratt. You need to be an arm wrestler to beat this kid. What I would be doing right now if I was Auden is not say one word. Show everyone how much you've improved the last 12 months. Show everyone that you do Auden. I've said it from day one that he deserves to be on this stage. So, if Auden lets Korean Hulk have the best grip, let him get high on his thumb, and Auden still comes in, takes hand control, and dominates this one, it can just show everyone that he's here, and he's here to stay. Absolutely. Korean Hulk doesn't look very comfortable, doesn't look happy. You're not going to be 3-0. There's nothing really you have done in this match. Absolute domination on the side of Auden Larratt, keeping the Larratt legacy alive and well. Absolutely. Becoming the next rising star in the Supermatch format. Looking in full control there. Auden just getting on the water there. Korean Hulk just looks in licorice all sorts at the moment. Not sure what's going on there. He's just getting his microphone fixed. Auden looks out to the crowd here at the Diva Theater. Here in the UAE. Thank you all so much for joining us here on the pay-per-view. I'm the Aussie armwrestler Jake Ward. Joined by Coach Ray Raymond Lapens. Happy to be here. I really, I'll be honest, I expected more from this match. I expected Korean Hulk to put up more of a fight. I don't. Most likely, Auden is showing up in great shape. He trained his ass off for this match. He's very dedicated. And he took it very seriously with a good game plan. And Devin Larratt in his corner. He can't lose. He's covering me. He's covering me. No, no, no. Never, never, never. We can try. Okay? We can do it. Let's just go after him. Rip. Rip. So I can hear him again. I just feel like Auden. Let him have everything. We're getting in. Devin needs to stay down. I know I can do that. I understand. It cannot happen. That cannot happen. Thank you. Thank you. So now into a wrist grip. Round number four. Do you think, if this ends right here, do you think Korean Hulk pulls two more rounds? Yeah, I don't know. I think Auden will want to pull two more rounds. I think so. He will allow maybe much more to Korean Hulk. I won't. See what's up. Referee's grip. Hands are getting close. First round number four. Waiting for the go. Come on. Come on. Dominant in the center. I love the shot from Korean Hulk. The headbang and everything like that. He's down 3-0 and gets asleep, but he's still oozing confidence out of those bright colored shorts. You've got to love him. He felt like he had something there. Nods the head. Gives a war cry. Feels up and about, even though he's 3-0 down. Here he comes. He's a part of the 500 club. Very strong individual. Shows one more time that really pressing movements are not the thing if armwrestling is really called pulling. It always comes down to that. Armwrestling is not pressing. It is always pulling. So here we go. Round number four. Auden Larratt. 1-0. Sorry, one win away from still remaining undefeated here at King of the Table in his second match. Strap has been put on. Hand's going to get closed. Has Korean Hulk got anything here, Ray? Round number four. Well, he wasn't happy with the start. He said go. He said go. I didn't breathe. I didn't breathe yet. So they got to redo it again because the referees are saying ready and there's that slight break and then go. Korean Hulk was saying he wasn't ready. He's the first guy in history to ever do that. Well, that's what King of the Table does, Ray. It creates history. And that is one for the record books right there. Absolutely. Korean Hulk fighting for still fighting. That's the most important thing. Don't give up. Try your best. Maybe he can turn this around. I'll be very surprised if he does at this point because I think it's just too much. It's just too much everything from Auden Larratt. But if he does, that's what we want to see. So Korean Hulk on the left. Auden Larratt on the right. Round four. A rise and a stop. Two hits. And Auden goes bang. Auden Larratt takes it 4-0. 4-0. Will they pull? They're not going to pull. Yep, they're not going to pull any more matches. We're going to look really quick at the highlights which were absolute domination from the prodigy. Young Larratt. Auden Larratt. You can see very happy Devin and Jody Larratt right there on the stage. Auden Larratt wins this super match. Many people expected this to be an absolute war. Including me. Well, I was wrong. Auden showed up in a much, much better shape. Absolutely dominating every aspect of this match. You can see here. Auden had hand control. He had side pressure control. Even when he hit sideways, Korean Hulk could stop it for a little bit. But even then, he couldn't hold it for long enough. And Auden with a good pin. With a big victory. Looks very emotional. We go to the stage. Ladies and gentlemen, your winner, the prodigy, Auden Larratt. Auden, mate. Mate, you're sweating. You're huffing and puffing. On the visuals, it looked like a very dominating 4-0 win. Can you tell us about the power of Korean Hulk? That guy is incredibly strong. I was not sure coming into this match. I didn't know how good he was going to be. And he lived up to my expectations. I was able to beat the hand. But, man, I felt some of that power a couple rounds. That one round, that last one, where it looks like I held center, that's not what happened. He almost got me there. So then, what was your first thought? Because the first round you came in, you went bang a couple of times. When you thought it was a pin and it slipped out, your hit was fantastic. So like that in that last round, and it happened in round number two as well, Korean Hulk gets a stop, but he holds. And you were able to manipulate, climb, and pin him. But what was your first initial thought when he got a stop on you? Yeah, I mean, that guy is freaking strong, obviously. His reputation is incredible. And it lives up to his name. He's so strong, so fundamentally powerful. It was really an honor to pull him. I have huge respect for Korean Hulk. He's one of my favorite opponents to pull. It was a great time. I hope after this we can be good friends. And yeah, I was scared for a bit. But everything went to plan, so it was good. I think you did well. And I'm a big fan of what you are bringing to King of the Table. You're bringing people back to arm wrestling. You're getting reach around the world. Is there a bit of a wish list for Orden, Larratt? Have you got someone like Mr. Beast you're going to call out? Who are you going to bring back to King of the Table? I hate to think too far ahead. I really want to just sit and enjoy this victory. I trained super hard for it, and I was prepared. And now I want to sit back. I'll have a name in a couple days, maybe a week or so. Well, I think you deserve to be on the big stage. You've shown it. You undefeated at King of the Table 2-0. Ladies and gentlemen, your winner, the prodigy, Orden Larratt! That's what I'm talking about.
