Wrestlers linked to Drugs
We all know that wrestlers put their bodies through Hell every day, and even more so when they step into the ring. With a bump landing the wrong way one time, you could break your neck or back, and be in a wheelchair for the rest of your life.
Wrestlers are not unlike any other athlete, they take vitamins and all the sort. And have been linked to steriods as well.
Let me tell you something, steroids are not only linked to wrestlers, not too long ago, they were talking about Barry Bonds and his alleged Steriod use.
With all of the abuse that athletes put their bodies through, some of them are bound to be on many medications at one time, I am not saying anabolic steriods or anything, but some athletes are on a form of steriods to ease back pain. It happens all of the time. While those steriods may not have the "roid rage" effect, you never know. Anyone is bound to snap at one time or another and blame it on something that it has nothing to do with.
Yes, I am speaking about the recent tragedy linked to Pro Wrestling, in which the media is blaming it on Steriods and Roid Rage. See whatever the ACTUAL case may be, the man had issues, and steroids or not, someone should have seen something out of the ordinary. At least any normal person would thing....Unless that man was a very good actor.
Any person who is in the limelight for any amount of time, and feels the pressure of being perfect all of the time, is bound to at least try some sort of chemical relief. And while I am not condoning it, (in fact I think it is stupid), it happens, because that is their way of dealing with anything.
And while the facts seem to all be against Pro Wrestlers, the fact of the matter is, If you look at statistics, Wrestlers have a very high mortality rate, but so does any other athlete.
Linking a wrestler to drugs and drug use is a very fine line. It is like saying that I am on an antipsychotic drug because I am out of my mind. Seriously not the case. I am out of my mind, but I am not taking anything.
Accusing someone or jumping to conclusions before you know all of the details is Ridiculous.
Yes I am rambling on and on, but death and tragedy are a part of life. And while it seems that Wrestlers may be more prone to that fact, it is not the case by any means.
Like it or not, the fact remains that Since 1985 until July 2007 almost 100 wrestlers have died UNDER the age of 65 due to various reasons.
