The top pros in the world were all on stage this past weekend for the first time in 2015.

It’s been almost 8 months since the 50th Mr. Olympia competition saw Phil Heath taking his fourth consecutive Sandow. The competition was emotionally charged as Heath engaged in a war of words against his chief rival Kai Greene. The two threw barbs at one another during the press conference and even came close to exchanging blows on the posing stage. But being the consummate professionals that they are, the two were able to move past their confrontation and continue the competition without further issue.

Being a spectator it was easy to forget the rivalry and appreciate the rest of the competition. When you sit back and take a minute to realize it we got to see the best of the best competing that not and it included the likes of veterans Branch Warren and Dexter Jackson as well as a bodybuilder always scratching at the top two positions Shawn Rhoden. These men are the epitome of the top bodybuilders on the scene today and to see them all on stage truly highlighted not only how difficult it is to judge the best in the world, but just how rare it is to see all the big named competitors in one place at the Pittsburgh Pro.

This past weekends 2015 Pittsburgh Pro saw the first time that these top bodybuilders shared the stage since the 2014 Mr. Olympia event. Mike O’Hearn joined in on the festivities as the top bodybuilders in the world took the stage for a pose down that we’re likely not to see again until this year’s Mr. Olympia competition. FLEX Online has the exclusive video of the event and the guest pose down between the talented athletes. Take a look.
