IN the most decisive move of its kind in the history of the wrestling business, the WWE have suspended many of their biggest name wrestlers for breaking drug rules. The action came after the 10 men allegedly including former world champions Edge, King Booker and Randy Orton as well as Mr Kennedy and ECW champ John Morrison were identified as clients of Signature Pharmacy in Orlando.
That company was busted by cops in February for the distribution of steroids and other prescription drugs to clients who had not been examined by a doctor.
It has now been established that their patient list included the 10 grapplers.

The New York Daily News has speculated that the ten are Randy Orton, Charlie Haas, Edge, King Booker, Shane Helms, Santino Marella, John Morrison, William Regal, Ken Kennedy and Chavo Guerrero.

Hey, some of those skits make Saturday night live look lame and boring! They are some of the best comedy TV has. But half the innuendo is so subtle that if you don’t know the entire storyline it’s lost.
The most unforgettable skit for me was after Rakishi stink faced both Guerroes with their own butts, the camera caught up with them back in the locker room. Eddie was screaming at Chavo because he didn’t wipe his butt before the match!! Chavo was screaming back, No, I wiped! I wiped!
I fell off my chair! :-)
But if you don’t know the sequence of events, it’s lost.

Who do ya think is the illegitimate offspring of Mr. McMahon? I’m voting for Triple-H. Vince has been wanting to do an incest storyline for a long time and the story-line marriage and real-life marriage of HHH to Stephanie, with a real-life offspring, fits the bill.
Vince like to complicate everything so it plays out over a season. But like his stupid death trick ran into a brick wall after the death of Benoit, this 10 man suspension might put a crimp on this one too.
Originally I was hoping for Eugene! :-)
Then after the incest angle with Melina the HHH thing also came to mind.
It’s got me guessing.
It’s amazing Triple H never gets mentioned in these suspensions. Wouldn’t have anything to do with him being Vinnies son in law?
Do you remember Eddie Guerrero's last feud with Rey Mysterio (where Eddie was supposedly the father of Rey's son)? During the lead up show to the Pay-per-View Eddie performed the greatest heel promo of all time - occupying eight minutes of airtime - while never saying a word! His manipulation of the audience through expressions, body language and the sole prop of a Mysterio mask was nothing short of artwork that McMahon will never be able to duplicate.
As far as these suspensions just watch as McMahon staggers them out ("Orton, you're out two weeks in October. Funaki, you can't job the first two weeks of November") so as not to turn all of his shows into the worst half of his ECW. He can also claim he's making the workers take time off as part of his Wellness Policy. He's that opportunistic and hypocritical.
Interesting.....since some of these guys are dead now.
Yes! He was a master! RIP Eddie.
But the story line was distasteful and never seemed to meld into the rolling 2 hour show. It just didn't fit, and even worse was where and how the story ended (eddies real death).
The way Vince is currently losing players he needs to shorten up his routines.
Hey,,, just to get this in print:
Vince McMahon and the WWE are invited and do go to Iraq every year for Christmas and always put on an A## kickin’ show for the troops.
The added video footage of their trip picked up after leaving civilian airspace with the always solemn, helmeted, and fearful look on all their faces tells a big big story!
GOD BLESS THEM ALL!!
If you want to give credit, where credit is due, give it to JBL.
It was his idea to go overseas to warzones and support the troops, to McMahons credit, instead of shooting it down, he listened, and did it.
OK.
But he makes a goofy lookin Santa Clause! :-)
For actually fighting?
they should repackage him as Manteet-the bringer of udder destruction
“Ken Andersom (Mr. Kennedy) is listed as having received anastrozole, somatropin and testosterone from October 2006 to February 2007. Kennedy made national TV appearances a few weeks ago denying any drug abuse since the start of WWE’s Wellness Policy and defending the policy, saying it was strict and legit.”
As the Romans would say “Sherlock Non Merda”
And HHH’s entrance doesn’t do the same?
Not bad! You may be onto something.
I’m sure it has its advantages. I know he stopped them at least temporarily when he & Stephanie were trying to have the baby. He hasn’t had that caveman look for while even before the injury. But assuming Vince is telling the truth about not knowing when they will be tested, sooner or later...
I had heard somewhere that it was to be Kennedy, setting up a HHH/Kennedy feud for a few months.
I’m surprised they publicly suspended these guys.
He came back from his quad injury jacked to the gills, too. So much for the Wellness Policy.
I’ve been watching it more sporadically lately. I missed that night. Did he have that creepy forehead thing going on?
I guess it’s not surprising he would come back making a “grand entrance”. The more the guys get caught up in these suspensions while he skates the more suspicious it looks that maybe someone does know who’s being tested & when. They’re going to resent him even more than they already do.
