If you’ve been craving American Ninja Warrior action, we’ve got good news! USA vs. the World is back and will be aired on NBC on Sunday, January 26, from 9-11 p.m. ET/PT. Representing Team USA is ANW season 11 Champion Drew Drechsel, runner-up Daniel Gil, and several other talented Ninjas: Karsten Williams, Jesse Labreck, Adam Rayl, and Michael Torres.
Karsten Williams recently sat down with NBC Dallas-Fort Worth to talk about the competition and representing the U.S. The clip also includes a sneak peek, which you can see here.
USA vs. the World has been airing since 2014, with the opponents and formats changing slightly each season. In the 5th season in 2018, Team Europe took the title of Champion from the United States. The US team of Drew Drechsel, Jesse Labreck, Mathis Owhadi, Najee Richardson, and Barclay Stockett took first place back in 2019, so the competition should be fierce to see if Team USA can repeat or if another team is going to win in 2020. Tune in on Sunday to find out!
