He looked pretty ridiculous towards the end of his career. Pretty much flexing oil at that point

Cutler is one of the most overrated bbers to exist! A big blocky , no aesthetics, fridge!

There’s even talks with the youth that he’s the greatest O winner and better than Dorian 😂🤣🤣

Doesn't look like he's hitting the pose in the most advantages way.

You can push your lats into your arm to make your triceps look bigger, but Wheelers arm appears to be too far away to benefit from that

Shawn right after the 1994 Mr Olympia

Flex magazine January 1995 Shawn Ray

Dorian was a bigger version of what he's been. I'm not a fan in the sense that his physique is something I aspire to attain. Dorian is in his own class and in his own little world. For that reason, there's nobody they can compare like-to-like with Dorian. They can only bring forward a different package.

( 1994 Mr Olympia ) Tonight I feel that I got what I deserved. With a beaming smile , Shawn concluded: " This is the first time in three years I haven't ' retired ' the night of the show and got drunk. "


Shawn was lucky to beat Kevin in 1994 He wasn't beating Dorian. He knew it, we knew it . everyone knew it

Yates beat Shawn at that show hands down. Judges view is pretty close that close Yates conditioning hides all his flaws and other guys who look like their in shape from 3-4 rows back look smooth in comparison to him. He looked like he was on another planet from a few feet away, I agree further back his flaws become apparent but the judges are up close and that's where it's won and lost.

Later on he got heavier but not better,  could never quite lose the water as his kidneys issues started to develop.  Absolute asshole of a person, but freak of a physique.

I have no specific example, but I think he was very standoffish just by nature and then also used to being told from a very young age how great his physique was (which was true).  I think he's made some assholish comments to people but the same was said of Shawn Ray.  Flex, Cormier and Rico all seemed like okay dudes, young and flying high at the top of the bodybuilding world out in Venice in the early 90s.  Lots of jealousy, but hey, that was because they seemed to have a lot to be jealous of

Yeah, I remember him winning some teen contest on ESPN's American Muscle TV show back in the 80's. He was awesome at a young age.
