Mike Sweeney (WPC President) announced that the WPO will be merged into the WPC:
Innovative New WPO Structure
The WPO will be structurally merged into the WPC. The WPO-sanction will be used for meets that offer cash prize awards. The WPO rules of engagement /competition will now be directed by the WPC rule structure. As example, 24 hour weight-ins, WPC safety-support gear, etc.
The difference is the following new WPO weight class structure (each class has a title-belt and a cash prize)
• LWT-0 to 198.50 pounds
• HWT-198.51 to 259.50 pounds
• SHW-259.51 to over
This is the same three weight classes for the Bench-Press-only class. No formula will be used for either the three lift class or bench-press-only divisions.
Any future World Records will be broken in the standard traditional WPC classes and past WPO records will be preserved as historical. No added bonus money will be paid for world records.
