Hey P-Town! At about 4:30pm yesterday I landed back in Peoria from Las Vegas. I had the privilege of hosting the Monster Jam World Finals XVIII Presented by NGK Spark Plugs. It was quite possibly the most amazing Monster Jam World Finals in the history of Monster Jam.
It was truly epic!
The drivers came with their A-game. The staff put together a great presentation. And the energy that fans from around the world brought was truly spectacular. It’s hard to describe if you weren’t there. But, for me, as a Monster Jam fan my whole life, it was magical.
We saw up and comer Tristan England win the Double Down Showdown on Thursday night at Sam Boyd Stadium in his new truck Earth Shaker. Ryan Anderson finally won his first World Finals title by beating Tyler Menninga for the racing title on Friday. Then, on Saturday, Lee O’Donnell in the VP Racing Fuels Mad Scientist did the FIRST EVER front-flip in a Monster Jam truck to take the freestyle championship!
It will be tough to ever recreate something as organically spectacular as this weekend was!
And for me, it’s a weekend I will never forget! Not only because the Monster Jam World Finals was so amazing, but also because i had a chance to meet Travis Scott, interview the Diesel Brothers, and spend some time with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson for something I can’t wait to talk about soon!
You will be able to watch it all with ME hosting on FS1 on April 9th (Racing), April 16th (Freestyle pt. 1), and April 23 (Freestyle pt 2).
Check out one of the many historic moments from the weekend!
– ORyan tha KANG!
