The 2025 Arnold Classic continued Saturday with the Pro Wheelchair division taking center stage. Once again, familiar faces returned, all determined to claim victory. Rajesh John, the reigning champion, stepped in as the clear favorite. In the end, he delivered another dominant performance and secured his second straight Arnold Classic Pro Wheelchair title.
Meanwhile, John faced a highly competitive field eager to challenge his reign. Harold Kelley, a six-time Arnold Classic champion, returned with hopes of reclaiming his spot at the top. At the same time, Gabriele Andriulli, the 2022 winner, aimed to shake up the rankings. With such a deep lineup, the division promised an intense battle.
As the competition unfolded, each athlete pushed their limits. After his Olympia victory, Kelley finished fifth, unable to recapture his former dominance. Likewise, Kevin Secundino and Gabriele Andriulli fought hard to secure top-five placements. Ultimately, the final showdown came down to John and James Berger. When the judges made their decision, John stood victorious.
Now, the 2025 Arnold Classic Pro Wheelchair event has come to a close. Once again, the world’s best wheelchair bodybuilders proved the sport’s growing level of talent. In the end, only one could take the title. Below, the final results reveal how it all played out.
