Pro wrestling to institute random drug testing

 

Just saw this article up on ESPN.com. With all the "controversy" surrounding that scathing article a few weeks ago by one of their employees, it's kinda interesting to see another article addressing the situation.

You can all calm down now. Jim Rome spoke on this today:

 

"Since when do actors need to be tested for drugs?"

[Dangerous A]

I heard that take today on Rome's show.

 

 

Nothing new. He doesn't like wrestling, but he didn't come off nearly as crass as that one ESPN Radio guy from a few weeks ago.

Hell you could say that about alot of jobs.

A.) will vince be tested?

 

b.) its about time Vince starts caring about his investments. I mean look at all the dudes that are probably juiced: Angle, Batista, Chavo (maybe not anymore), Masters, etc....

I was reading on Pro Football Talk, when I saw this:

 

Pro wrestling is instituting random drug testing (the protocol consists of Vince McMahon randomly asking wrestlers whether they take drugs . . . "You don't? Why the hell not?").

Hell with the way things are now's the perfect time to bring back ICOPRO.

Getting away from steriods for a moment, I could see a lot of main event WWE stars taking pain killers.

 

Hell, I don't see how Shawn Michaels could do what he does without some kind of drug(s). I mean, the guy is middle-aged and takes bumps like a twenty year old. Also, I don't see how Ric Flair could even do his limited wrestling without them. It seems like the guy would be in constant pain.

How dare you!

 

It was a miracle from Jesus that cured Shawn's back and the power of Christ that keeps him going.

 

At least, I'm sure that's what Shawn would tell you.

This has surprisingly gotten alot of attention in the media. Mainly because it's cheap and quick way to insult wrestling and fill up a couple minutes.
