With Jay winning what does this do for other IFBB events??

[Wiggs]

There are very few mass monsters out there that are threats.

Jay
Ronnie (stick a fork in him)
Tony Freeman, not really a mass monster cause he's 6'3 at 280
Gunter (never really a threat)

How does this change the face of bodybuilding?  Will there be a new era of smaller champs in shows? Are the days of guts gone?  This says alot...

Jay doesnt change anything.  Plain and simple.  The guy has gassed himself for six years chasing Ronnie.  The times will change when every IFBB pro knows that Mr. Olympia is beatable.  Oh and that year is next year.  Vic can beat him. Dexter already has before.  I bet a lot of guys will pass on spring shows because they know if they pool all their resources into the Olympia they have the best chance to beat Jay.  Martinez, Dexter, Freeman, Melvin, and even Gustavo are all the more motivated this year around

Jay is a class act and I am thrilled he won the Olympia. Combine that with Freemans recent win in Montreal along with Darrem Charles at the recent Atlantic City and Dexter at the ASC and I am pumped.
The best overall PHYSIQUE is what appears to be winning now, as it SHOULD be.
While big miscles are the hallmark of any bodybuilder, it is not the whole deal.
A true bodybuilding champ needs to have the complete package. Ronnie simply came in too big and lost the overall look one needs , to display an incredible PHYSIQUE. Sure Ronnie was a great champ, but last night he was a guy with big muscles, NOT the guy with the best physique.
