The 'most improved/biggest disapointment' thread

[chadcruz]

So after viewing pre-judging, who has exceeded expectations? and who has failed to live up expectations?

For me, I'd have to say:
Exceeding expectations: Ronny Rockel
Failed to live up to expectations: Dennis Wolf.
As I said before, I'm hugely disapointed in Wolf's showing. He looked a long, long way off his best and will be very lucky to make the top 10.

Exceed-

Ronnie Rockel
Jay Cutler (not mine)
Branch Warren


Disappoint-

Dennis Wolf
Victor Martinez
Kai Greene (looked better as night went on, not as full and hard as the Arnold)
Darrem Charles
Bill Willmore

Kai Greene (looked better as night went on, not as full and hard as the Arnold)

i don't hink kai looked that better at the arnold. maybe he was a little bit harder but now he has added mass in certain points, making him look nore aestetic altough bigger.
also, his conditioning improved as the show went on.
in fact, at the arnold he strictly defeated a victor martinez not much different from now, while now kai dominates vic.
also i think that tomorrow kai could come slightly improved and even better than jay, but the judges won't agree.
if he's very lucky he'll be 2nd, but i think polithcs will hold himafter dex and possibly even phil.

I don't think Kai was that much of a disappointment. His waist looks much improved and he's got a little more size on and I think he'll be harder for tomorrow.
And I think we all agree on Dennis Wolf being the biggest upset in the show.

yeah wtf is up with wolf so sad, was really hoping for him to do good this year!!!

it might sound weird, but i'm kinda disappointed with heath, dont really know why, maybe I had too high expectations...

 

[tkD]

Exceed: Rockel by far

Disappoint: Dennis Wolf, by far as well.

Disapointment: Incredible "BIG" Wolf was WATERY, NOT CONDITIONED, none of his weakeness points were corrected, tiny calves,smaller than previous years, ideal candidate for calf implants or synthold or on site injectios of roids, no lower back the the biggest sin, he was not as conditione as last year and as in 2007.

2-Victor Martinez: Legs behind but no vastus lateralis and sartoris,not as bigger and conditioned as in 2007

INCREDIBLE

OMG Jay Cutler,even though he does not have the biggest arms OMG he dialed and synchronyzed the perfect condition, DIURETICS???? Whatever he did he is what bodybuilding is the biggest+the best conditioned he has everything he deserves Mr.Olympia and makes history of course.

For the hype he had going in, I would say he certainly was. I said a disappointment, not a "big" disappointment.

He was probably better at the Arnold, if not at about the same level.

i was verry dissapointed with kai, he was definitely way below phil but as the night went on he started to really pop out and he was overshadowing phil in the last few callouts.... branch was even more impressive than phil

 

[ironheart]

exeed:

Jay - 2009 Mr.O?
Ronny - i hope the judges give him cred.
Branch

disappoint:

Wolf - damn, i really hoped he would do well..
Victor

 

[mvsf1]

Exceded: Jay and Rockel
Dissapoint: Wolf and Darrem. In some way, Vic.

 

[sexnews]

I think even Ruhl looked pretty good

 

[Johnny5]

I like Darrems new look, but as they said in the pre-judging it's still a work in progress.

I was suprised by both Branch Warren and Jay Cutler! When they stepped on stage, holy shit... I think I was expecting a little too much of Phil as well.

 

[MarkoB]

Exeed:
Jay
Ronny
Branch

Disappoint:
Wolf
Victor

 

[mvsf1]

I have to disagree. Pec tear looks bad, he hasn't tris nor glutes...
