tl;dr he's planning on competing at the Olympia.
Shawn Ray is gonna have a fucking hay day with this one.

Looks like he's doing classic physique which should bring a ton of publicity to that division.

What's he going to do with all that oil?

Riding on Levrone's comeback coat tails. Levrone showed guys like him how easy it is to all of a sudden become relevant again through social media. Plan a comeback, announce it, invite and document on social media and boom, you're back in the limelight.

I can't see Flex making as much hay out of this as Levrone did. The intrigue about how well an older legendary bodybuilder might do in a modern show has been played out by Levrone already.

I also think Flex has more limitations with his health and will only be there to make up numbers in his own mind. Levrone was different because of how strong he is mentally. I was surprised Levrone didn't drop out at some stage prior to last years Olympia but obviously there was a major financial incentive for him following through on competing in terms of his own businesses.

Levrone has been active on social media for a long time and had the Levrone Report so he had experience of how best to capitalize on his Olympia run to get publicity and make coin. I don't think Flex is as focused or savy as Levrone.

Levrone made people believe he could do well as an Olympia competitor, Wheeler will have an uphill battle.

How about Arnold and Lou as well?

Love Wheeler physique, probably the one of the most appealing physiques in bodybuilding ever.
But this is just sad, Flex had major health issues. And the scartissue wont go away either and will look bad on stage ....
Good for him that he is hitting weights again but this is just not a good choice in my opinion.

In my opinion Kevin's comeback destroyed his legacy, I was one of the people who believed in Kevin. But that image in my head from the last olympia wont go away.... Everytime somebody mentions kevin or i see i picture of him i only see his last showing pictured in my head.
Sure he looks good for his age and so on. But should not compete.
Just like flex......
