How the 2001 mr. Olympia was fixed!

How the 2001 Olympia was Fixed!


It was shortly after 2.25pm on Saturday October 27, 2001, at the Events Center of Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino. As NPC Chairman and head of the IFBB judges committee Manion couldn't believe his eyes. There, for all to see was the reality that Jay Cutler had won both the muscularity and symmetry rounds and therefore led defending champ, Ronnie Coleman by two rounds to nil.
With score sheets in hand Manion rushed from the auditorium in search of Wayne DeMilia, IFBB Pro Division Chairman and promoter of the IFBB Mr. Olympia contest. Locating DeMilia, Manion almost dragged his quarry to a quiet backstage area and informed him of the state of judging play. DeMilia went pale, instantly realizing, as Manion had done earlier, that this was not meant to be. This was Joe Weider's Mr. Olympia contest and a Weider contracted athlete was supposed to win. That meant Coleman: Cutler had ceased to be a Weider athlete shortly after the 2000 Mr. Olympia. DeMilia and Manion both knew that something horrendous had gone wrong, that once Joe Weider learned his man was second he would be go ballistic and there would be hell to pay. The duo promptly left for the hotel suite that acted as IFBB base of Olympia operations.
As they walked through the door of the suite the phone rang, and DeMilia picked it up to hear the well-known twang of Joe Weider. He had already heard that Coleman was marooned in second place and he demanded that the circumstances be changed in order for his man to win. DeMilia demurred, and later that evening the judging panel gave the posing and posedown rounds to Coleman, thus ensuring he and not Cutler was crowned Mr. Olympia, 2001.
Oh, and Ronnie Coleman and Gary Coleman are twins separated at birth.
For the record the last sentence is as credible as the contents of the first three paragraphs
