Shawn Rhoden is officially out of this year’s Olympia:
“Listen, I know a lot of people give a lot of flack to the Olympia LLC and IFBB Pro League about having Shawn compete and whatnot,” Rhoden explained.
“But there’s a due process for everything that’s going on with me, and I’m willing to go through that process. The next time I step on stage, I’m going to step on stage with nothing hindering me from being the best me or taking the focus off of me competing and the 2020 Olympia is not for me this year. You guys heard it here first. I want to be on stage at 100% and competing as Shawn Rhoden with nothing hanging over my head. Once this process is complete I will be on stage.
“Nothing means more to me than being on stage competing,” he continued. “This will go away. This will be behind me and I will be able to focus on everything, not just but bodybuilding but Shawn Rhoden’s life and everything else and getting my life back. Until then I’m training as if I’m competing because nothing has changed. I’m still training, I’m eating, I’m working out because I know at the end of the day I will be back on stage competing, and I will be competing on stage as Shawn Rhoden and nothing else.”

Well, you can pretty much take that to mean he's out for good. A quick flash in the pan and will probably be the least remember Mr. O.

He’s in his mid 40s.
