well i wanted to show u this because i think itz stupid to make a huge deal about pro wrestlers doing drugs because it is not a competitive sports. yea i agree for pro sports like basketball, football, baseball where it takes talent and skills to get more money and they would be cheating if they did drugs but i think it is different for wrestling.

this is getting out of hand i just think they just want to make a story about this stuff.

The issue with steriods is not the fact that pro-athletes in competative sports are taking them. Its the fact that kids follow along in their idol's footsteps. There's a huge following of WWE fans that are young (HS), and may feel influenced to take things like HGH, etc. etc. because pro athletes take them. And in teenagers cases, it can damage them, physically and emotionally. It gives teens major moodswings. I remember some HS kid hung himself.
That's the problem.

NOOOO!!! Not Rey Mysterio!!!! hahaha ... xD

Haven't watched wrestling in a heck a long time ....

Hmmm ... It's still a big deal seeing athletes, whether famous or not famous, take performance enhancing drugs.

i heard even sylvestor stallone got yelled at by the media for alleged steroid using so i guess its not limited to just athletes

Adam Copeland (Edge) and Gregory Helms (Hurricane) have posted blogs admitting that they have taken steroids but not for the suspected reasons. Back when Edge had to get neck surgery during 2003, the Doctors recommended he take some steroids so that the bone would heal quicker with the plates and screws that had been implanted. Edge states that it was way back when and it's already past him and that he hasn't taken steroids since then for personal use. Same goes for Hurricane. He did his research and was also recommended to take steroids because if he didn't, he'd have to go through a surgery that he didn't want to go through so all he did was take "LEGAL" steroids in order to speed up the process of healing and not for the general idea to get beefed up. Besides. Hurricane's a small guy not some Scott Steiner/Batista looking thing. Rey Mysterio? Don't know. He probably took it for his knee back then since he jumps a lot.
