The 2025 Olympia Figure Prejudging took place Friday morning, October 9–12, 2025, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The division saw a major shakeup with the retirement of 8x champion Cydney Gillon, the all-time winningest athlete in Figure history. With Gillon stepping away, a new champion will be crowned during the finals, opening the door for fresh contenders to rise to the top.

Meanwhile, last year’s runner-up Jessica Reyes Padilla and Lola Montez, who finished third, entered as early favorites. Reyes Padilla also claimed the Masters Olympia title last year, signaling her readiness to take over the throne. Both athletes brought polished physiques and stage presence that immediately caught the judges’ attention.

Now, our team at Colosseum Strength breaks down the action. The first callout featured a mix of returning top competitors, including Natalia Soltero and Nicole Zenobia Graham, along with Reyes Padilla and Montez. The field quickly showcased both depth and quality, signaling that the competition for the Figure crown will be fierce.

From the start, judges closely evaluated symmetry, conditioning, and presentation. The first callout included eight athletes, with Gayle, Montez, Reyes Padilla, and Zenobia Graham prominently placed in the center. Early comparisons allowed the judges to separate the strongest competitors from the rest of the field.

Moreover, the return of Soltero and the stage debut of Missy Truscott added intrigue. Truscott joined the second callout, showing that she could immediately compete at a high level despite her recent transition from Fitness. Each competitor had a chance to display their balance, posing flow, and overall conditioning.

By the end of the early rounds, the top athletes were beginning to emerge, but the judges continued to refine the field through subsequent callouts, ensuring that only the most polished would make the top five.

As the session progressed, competitors were shuffled into additional callouts. Truscott returned for the fifth calloutalongside members of the first, allowing judges to reassess and compare the potential top finishers. Meanwhile, Montez and Zenobia Graham occupied the center, with Gayle and Zwinger-Tynek flanking them.

Finally, the sixth callout narrowed the field to the presumed top four: Rhea Gayle, Lola Montez, Jessica Reyes Padilla, and Denise Zwinger-Tynek. Their symmetry, conditioning, and stage presence clearly stood out, setting the stage for an exciting finals showdown.

Judges now have a clearer picture, but with Gillon gone, the crown is wide open and anything can happen Friday night.
