2023 Rogue Strongman Invitational Roster
2021 Rogue Strongman Invitational champion Martins Licis is not scheduled to compete in 2023. However, reigning champion Oleksii Novikov is scheduled to attempt a title defense in Round Rock:

• Oleksii Novikov (Ukraine) — Defending Champion
• Mitchell Hooper (Canada)
• Trey Mitchell (USA)
• Luke Stoltman (UK)
• Mateusz Kieliszkowski (Poland)
• Pavlo Nakonechnyy (Ukraine)
• Tom Stoltman (UK)
• Bobby Thompson (USA)
• Evan Singleton (USA)
• Maxime Boudreault (Canada)

Singleton has the momentum entering the event, as he is coming off a win at the 2023 Giants Live World Open. However, Rogue Invitational gold is one of the few major strongman contest results absent from 2023 World’s Strongest Man (WSM) champion Mitchell Hooper’s competitive resume. He’ll surely aim to change that in Round Rock.
