Our two favorite brothers won't be competing until 2023! While nearing the end of 2022, both Stoltman Brothers have decided to focus on family, recovery, and the Stoltman brand for the rest of the year. This is met with mixed feelings from fans, as some deem it ridiculous to give up on the winnings and recognition that comes with these competitions, while others understand and even applaud it.

​

Luke and Tom feel that they are not currently up to par with the other athletes that will be competing. They explain their feelings and position on the matter in detail on their YouTube channel "Stoltman Brothers". In the video, they mentioned that they don't feel comfortable competing at these high-level competitions when they know that they won't be competing for a top position. Instead, they would rather leave their place in the competition for someone else, to allow them to grow and hopefully challenge for that top position.
