WWE suspends TEN superstars

The action came after the 10 men - allegedly including former world champions Edge and Randy Orton, ECW champ John Morrison, Brit William Regal and rising star Mr Kennedy - were identified as clients of Signature Pharmacy in Orlando.
Sports Illustrated, who helped police with original bust, list the 10 as Mr Kennedy, Chavo Guerrero, Gregory Helms, Randy Orton, John Morrison, Shoichi Funaki, Charlie Haas, Umaga, William Regal and Edge.

Wow...I guess we should stick ANOTHER fork in the world of professional wrestling.
Most people will not care about this story because it is WWE, but you can use it to talk about the bigger issue of steroids in sports.

Many like to say that professional wrestling is dirty and not regulated at all, but they just suspended some of their top wrestlers.
Is there a serious problem with steroids in sports?
What should be done about it?
Do the NFL, MLB and NBA have proper procedures?

This points out the real issue not only in sports, but many areas----
people feel they need help,something else to give them an advantage,rather than what it really always was---old fashioned HARD WORK.The idea always was work harder to gain an advantage,in society today its take every short cut available.Steroids is only a part of what has become a bigger problem.Why work at it when you can
take a short cut or flat out cheat?

I agree in part...however, it seems like athletes and wrestlers are expected to look and perform at a level that is unrealistic. Old school wrestlers didn't look like they do now, they didn't fly around like they do now.

I don't think Macho Man took any 'roids either and he flew.

In what trailer park are these clowns considered "superstars"?

Scorpion said...

Cena and the "great" Khali are called wwe "superstars," they couldn't have given any of those names I mentioned a decent match.
