Who do you think will win The Ultimate this year???

Who do you think will win the Ultimate this year? In my opinion no vegas Elvis will win it as Shawn got it last year so this year it will be a 50's next year will be the leathers but this year i think Donny Edwards will win i bet £50.00

I've been wondering the same thing...based on "closest all around total package" I have been thinking it could well be Donny Edwards also, but there are a few others who could be stiff competition.

Here is a link to the Commercial Appeal in Memphis which also has Appeal TV videos showing scenes from Elvis Week. One of them shows some of the Ultimate contestants. You can catch a glimpse of the talented young Justin Shandor..plus most of the others, including Donny Edwards.

I guess we'll find out tomorrow who the new Ultimate ETA is. I also tend to think it could well be a "young Elvis."

There are many, many people who think it would have been great (this year and future years) for the champion to defend his title..either keeping it or losing it..as in most other "championships" but maybe EPE didn't think of that or want to do it that way.

i've seen many ETA's and in my opinion LEO DAYS is the total package and as close to seeing Elvis as one can get... he has the voice.. the moves... the physical resemblance .. and the charisma on and off stage that personofies ELVIS through and through...

some videos of LEO DAYS.... you can find more on youtube... (56 posted)
