WWE suspends 10 wrestlers for doping...
 
Quote:
NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) -- World Wrestling Entertainment has suspended 10 of its wrestlers for violations of a policy that tests for steroids and other drugs, the company said Thursday.

Stamford-based WWE says it issued suspension notices based on independent information from the prosecutor's office in Albany County, N.Y., which has been investigating illegal steroid sales.

Neither the WWE nor the Albany County district attorney's office would comment on the suspended wrestlers' identities Thursday. No criminal charges were filed, they said.

Under a WWE wellness policy instituted last year that requires tests for steroids and other drugs, a wrestler faces a 30-day suspension without pay for a first violation, a 60-day suspension for a second violation and firing for a third violation. Performers are tested at least four times per year.

"We are very actively working to eradicate the use of steroids and performance enhancing drugs in the WWE," WWE spokesman Gary Davis said. "Today's action is part of that effort."

WWE officials met this month with New York prosecutors investigating illegal steroid sales. Albany County prosecutor P. David Soares' office has said that pro wrestler Chris Benoit, who killed his family before hanging himself in June, and other WWE wrestlers had been clients of Signature Pharmacy of Orlando, Fla. Investigators say Benoit had a steroid and other drugs in his system at the time.

When Soares' office began investigating the illegal sale and distribution of controlled substances, he said, his office sought the help of WWE after a number of its wrestlers appeared on customer lists of clinics connected with Signature Pharmacy.

Nine people, including three current or former physicians, have pleaded guilty, most affiliated with Internet and phone-order companies that filled orders for anabolic steroids and growth hormones through Signature and sent drugs to customers around the country, including Albany County.

Signature's owners have pleaded not guilty.

The Benoit case prompted the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee to ask WWE to turn over any information it has on steroid and drug abuse in pro wrestling. The committee has not yet scheduled a hearing on the case.

WWE said the company's practice has been to not release the names of suspended wrestlers, but the company has notified performers that starting Nov. 1 the names of those suspended for violating the policy will be made public.

WWE has about 160 wrestlers. WWE shares closed Thursday at $14.80, down 21 cents.

Uh, wrestling is fake... the matches are decided beforehand, I don't think the steroids will have anything to do with the air time they get.

Th!nk 08-31-2007 12:53 PM

Yeah, it's more like 90% if not 100.


There's so many kinds of steroids out today that the 10 are probably the ones using the old roids and got caught.

I think you hit the nail on the head. :1orglaugh

What they meant was that the WWE will slowly try to phase them out
.

riabanana 08-31-2007 01:07 PM
Would that serve as a lesson for them?

ugh, of course it's fake...what I mean is, if you start seeing someone lose a ton of matches to former jobbers, they're being punished for fucking up...they get less tv time and sometimes even saddled with ridiculous gimmicks and/or storylines...or just kind of disappear altogether....

That is the list Sports Illustrated released of the customers of Signature Pharmacy in Orlando, but according to the WWE there are names on the suspended list that don't correspond to this list...

tony286 08-31-2007 01:35 PM
Its hard to stop that, they have gotten fans used to seeing larger than life super heros types.It will be hard to go back to like when I was a kid it was chubby guys in tights.

They shouldn't care. I'm sure they were facing some kind of pressure after the Benoit situation so to please concerned mothers they are doing this.

You see the guts on those guys from the 70s and 80s? They were fucking drinkers...

That and Congress is sticking their unwanted noses in the situation. Drug testing pro wrestlers makes about as much sense as drug testing rock stars and movie stars. How many rock stars die of drug overdoses every year, and how many movie stars have incredible changes to their physiques from role to role (look at Will Smith in Ali and Ryan Reynolds in Blade)? It is entertainment, pure and simple, and Congress is only getting involved to grab headlines and make it appear they are doing something worthwhile...

Yeah, that could make more sense... haha, never know though. There's still people out there that think it's real ;)

The good thing about getting rid of the steroids is they will have to compensate in other areas. Hopefully stronger characters.
