It's official that the Arnold is a tier 3 show with tier 1 money
« on: March 04, 2013, 02:54:04 PM »
The lineups and winners over the last few years have been pathetic.  It's bad enough that most of the top pros just skip it now and would rather do a smaller show.

Ironically, Arnold is hurting his own show.  Taking the Arnold to other countries creates more opportunities to compete and less need to compete in Columbus.

But they're becoming one of the top amateur contests in the world.  Not too long before they're making more money from the amateurs than the pros

1st tier for 1st tier bbers but the ifbb only has about 4-5 1st tier bbers in this generation.  you can't blame the arnold for that.
