Drug testing of all feds? No way, won't happen. There is neither the will, nor resources to achieve this. If anything, budgetary cuts may mean even less govt assistance.
I think WL is where PL was 30 years ago....
If weight lifting was to get bigger (which I can't see happening in the foreseeable future) I'm sure splinter groups could form.
I also would think it would be hard for an IOC sport to split.
Sports do split, with even bigger profiles than weightlifting, such as tennis and cricket in past, but normally come together again.
If powerlifting ever became an Olympic sport, then I would imagine there would be much greater pressure and reason to merge. Whether this happens in the near future is another matter.
