The Kinektic team formatted event featured four competing squads, each comprised of five world-class grapplers, in a tournament consisting of semifinals and a championship final.

“Treniramo naše ratnike za suzbijanje snažnih emocionalnih reakcija suočenih s nedaćama, tolerirati fizički i emocionalni bol, i prevladati strah od ozljeda i smrti. Vojska ne može smanjiti intenzitet te kondicije bez negativnog utjecaja na borbenu sposobnost naše vojske. To je Catch-22. Zastrašujuća je istina da su članovi službe, jednostavno rečeno, sposobniji da se ubiju pukom posljedicom svoje profesionalne obuke i mi gubimo 22 dan. Ovo se mora promijeniti. Moramo prekvalifikovati naše ratnike o onome što im određuje uspjeh.”
“Bit će to sjajna noć borbe i borbe. Hvala svima na doprinosu.”
