Title: Did Shawn Ray really psyche Flex Wheeler out of the 97' O?
Post by: DragonsBreath on September 14, 2006, 04:01:57 PM
I guess Shawn got in Flex's head by demanding a x-ray of Flex's "suspicious" calves. Shawn claimed they were implants and therefore was against the IFBB rules and wanted them x-rayed before the competition.

With that, Flex conjured up a hoax a ninjas car-jacking him and apparently wore a fake cast to the Olympia. I also heard that Flex was having trouble with his diet and could not get in shape in time thus conjurring up the infamous "ninja attack".

Did Flex NOT compete because of Shawn?

Shawn or Flex, please speak on this?

I was fairly good friends with Flex at the time, but since I'm not anymore I can tell you that you are about 85% on the money with what you said...

"I was car-jacked by Ninjas"......... 10 years later that is still one of the funniest (in a pathetic way) things I've heard.

What baffles me is that how can a top-notch bodybuilder (Flex) allow ANYONE to get into his head? He has beaten Shawn for years so how did he allow Shawn to psyche him out of a potential 2nd place spot?

If the ninjas thing was just an exageration, why didn't Flex just say he was carjacked by some thugs?  The ninjas part just made it less convincing. Ninjas in Las Vegas? Hmmmmmm :-\

He was also measured at negative % bodyfat as per Jim Quinn at Gold's Venice...Right before he measured Flex Wheeler at 0.0% before the 93 olympia
