I disagree these are grown men and women and they know full well the dangers of drugs if they want to use them I say go for it but don`t blame Vince unless he held them down and shot them full of it.

I agree with MONSTER in that Vince McMahon has created a culture where in order to get pain, you must perform...He offers no insurance, and has all his performers employed as "Independent Contractors". The schedule is grueling, and if you cannot maintain your spot, the dynamics put in place will have your spot go to someone else in a heartbeat....so the "hiding" of injuries and use of pain killers is promoted in a backdoor fashion.
I agree with LORD ODIN on the fact that in this day if a person knows darn well what they are getting into, and they walk into the lions den willingly.
There are PLENTY of people in PLENTY of industries that willingly trade in their future health for immediate success.

I have to agree with Odin. This isn't a sport, even if the men involved are great athletes.
I would hate to see the government get further involved with our entertainment.
If fans are tired of seeing these young men become ancient before they're 40 or worse, dead, then they need to get that message across to the WWE and the wrestlers themselves.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Rest in Peace Brian Adams. Demolition was one of my favorite tag teams in WWE history.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

That was Bryan Clark
Brian Adams was the Kiss Demon in WCW. I saw him on a VH1 show about Super Kiss fans.
