WWE and wrestling

[mike,,hunt]

it wasn't the wwe that ate her up!! it was the pies that she ate

[Hawkins]

The WWE schedule, on the road, pressure and lifestyle did her no favours what so ever.

Some people can cope with it and some cant, just look at whats happening there at the moment.

[mike,,hunt]

looks to me that it's a much cleaner and safer place to work that it ever as been .
the wrestlers now know any drugs and its a 30 day ban ,if they carry on after the ban there out !!

[mike,,hunt]

like i said a cleaner place to work ! not fully clean

look back only a year ago, 90% of the roster where on steriods or growth hormones.it's a dam site less now just take a look at most of the guys now they are noticeably smaller

i'm not saying the policy is 100% fool proof but one less eddie ,bulldog,rude,pillman,hawk etc etc incident the better in my eyes

and then on to jeff hardy the answer to that is easy ,give the man a chance he was once a great talent once ,and my guess is he would never had been given a fresh deal if he had not passed a clean bill of heath BUT if he does show up hammered like he as in the past ........ back to the indys for him .

Don`t you remember there when Vince was on trial for steroids in the eighties? Give it a few years to blow over and it`ll be back to business as usual. Eugene wasn`t fired recently for drugs and neither were Sabu or RVD, although Vince needed those two for ECW.
And the recent liver problems is a Hep C scare. Aparently Bob Orton has had it for years. Hep C + Blading = deep shit and a pissed of Undertaker aparently

I read RVD and Sabu were busted for for possesion of cannibis as well as posseion of class A pain killers the only reason RVD was suspended and Sabu wasn't was what ever Sabu was possessing didn't come under WWE's list of banned substances.

The whole steroid thing is bollocks though, I personally think they are selective who they test and who they don't and there's no way in hell Batista and Lashley are 'natural' and I'd love to see Vince take the test himself with his saggy bitch tits a common side effect of steroid use.

The only substances they should be testing for in my opinion are they 'real' drugs like the pain killers and coke. Roids are a part of almost any sports(and have yet to be proven harmful as there is NO concrete evidence) industry, athletics, rugby, boxing, UFC etc, etc and the tests can be beaten as most of the athletes hire a doc to cycle their gear at the correct times so its out of their system in time for competition.

Oh boy the whole steriod debate.

Where to start.

Firstly how can anybody be sure that Jeff hardy has had o prove anything to WWE. He was visited at his house a short while back by TNA wrestlers because they were considering bringing him back to TV and the fact he wasnt speaks volumes. Hardy unlike Guerrero, Regal and others didnt go away, prove himself to be clean and not show up late or miss dates, which is what Eddie did.

He has done the oppsoite of that no showed TNA several times and is still brought back. The hiring policy of WWE shows that they are NOT taking this testing thing seriously.

They have recently been looking for ne wtalent and they have said they are after big muscular guys. Now what does that say? That wrestlers need to be muscular and built like a brick shithouse to get a look in. Whilst smaller talented wrestlers dont get hired or either do but dont get a push so never advance and make far less money than the big guys on top.

WWE has been in a state the last few weeks with all sorts of problems for talent, i will say that the fact they are publicaly releasing info on the website is a good thing, but the thing there is that other people most notably dave Melzter will break the story anyway so they are trying to act as if they are being honest when in fact the story would come out anyway and make them look bad for not admitting stuff.

As far as the liver problems being caused by bob ortons hepatitis, thats not the case. A docotr was asked about this and he said it was likely not the cause. Elivated enzymes are mostly caused by using certain drugs which enhance your appearance.

Is WWE of now a safer place than WWF of mid 90s or mid 80s? Maybe. Drugs were a problem then and they are a problem now and will always be a problem.
