Those guys use steroids???? No way. I thought people were naturally that big.
Well, knock me over with a feather. I sure hope none of those guys was involved in anything like throwing a match...
The rest of the WWE must have had different doctors?
Of course C.M. Punk is clean. Doesn't drink, doesn't smoke. His only addiction is competition.
The wrestling conglomerate based in Stamford announced that it will suspend 10 of its biggest stars for violation of its wellness policy.
In a list obtained exclusively by the Daily News, top wrestlers Randy Orton, Charles Haas, Jr., Adam "Edge" Copeland, Robert "Booker T" Huffman, Shane Helms, Mike Bucci, Anthony Carelli, John "Johnny Nitro" Hennigan, Darren "William Regal" Matthews, Ken "Mr. Kennedy" Anderson, Eddie "Umaga" Fatu, Shoichi Funaki and Chavo Guerrero were all identified as clients of Signature Pharmacy in Orlando, the site raided by Albany County and Florida law enforcement agencies in February for distributing steroids and other prescription drugs to clients who had not been examined by doctors. The investigation is part of a probe into illegal Internet drug distribution by Albany D.A. David Soares.
It is unclear at this time which of these wrestlers will be suspended by the WWE.
The WWE said in a statement that it issued suspension notices based on independent information received from the Albany D.A.

Oh my, Vince just gutted his troop with this move. Between his injured list and his drug list he’s going to need to bring in replacements.
He just got mysterio and HHH back, now this!
Any clues on who he’s digging up? (Besides MeanMark)
More diva time?
Tomorrows Smack Down should be berry berry interesting. :-)
Interesting.....since some of these guys are dead now.
For actually fighting?
WWE Attorney Jerry McDevitt Speaks Out On Suspensions, More
WWE attorney speaks about today's events...
WWE attorney Jerry McDevitt appeared on "On The Record" on FOX News today. Highlights are below.
* McDevitt said that WWE met with investigators today who said that WWE performers were clients of Signature Pharmacy. He said that WWE officials told the investigators that once the information was confirmed, they would act on it, and once it was confirmed, Vince McMahon did act on it by suspending 10 wrestlers.
* McDevitt said that two more suspensions may come down tomorrow once they confirm the information with the talent.
* McDevitt said that wrestlers have been told that they will be publicly identified in the future in hopes of bringing more transparency to the program and serve as a deterent to wrestlers.
* McDevitt said that this is not just a WWE problem. He said that Signature Pharmacy was sending drugs to policemen, firemen, and pro athletes. He said he heard that the NFL will be making an announcement soon. He said that human growth hormone is now the drug of choice and there is no way to test for that.
Could be that Vinnie Mac’s feeling the heat from the feds, and this is a pre-emptive strike. I don’t think he’ll be able to sweep it under the rug this time. As Jim Ross would say: “business is about to pick up!”
the real headline? “WWE pulls ahead of major league baseball in another category”.
