Your favorite wrestler just got busted with steriods! Does that change how you feel about him or her?

Question

I have asked this 6 months ago but thought I'd toss it out again, its better than " how can a 14 yr old make money" nonsense. I stayed off to lose my top contributer badge as the kids started reporting me again once I reclaimed it. Personally if my favorite wrestlers got busted I wouldn't be surprised by it.....how about you "superfans"?

Answer 1

It wouldn't change my mind about a certain favorite wrestler of mine. It was their mistake they made and would have to go through consequences. The only thing that would come to head is: "I hope he/she learned his/her lesson".

Answer 2

NO! I would be KIND OF shocked

Answer 3

well my fav. wrestler is jeff hardy and when he got suspended for drugs it wasn't steroids they were prescription pain killers, and i would be surprised because jeff isn't the kind of guy to take steroids to get buff because he isn't much of the big muscles type i would probably still be a fan and cheer him on to get over his problem like he did with the suspension with the drugs, i'm all supportive of him and if he was to take him i know he can easily quit taking just like that.

Answer 4

Anyone who is surprised about their favorite wrestler getting busted for steroids is naive, unless their favorite wrestler is CM Punk or Lance Storm who have both been very public about how they live a clean lifestyle.  Personally, my favorite wrestler is Triple H.  You would have to be blind to think that Triple H has never used steroids.  When he was working his way up the mid card in the mid-to-late 90s, he weighed about 240 pounds (more or less).  When he got his first main event push in 1999, he packed on about 20 to 25 pounds of muscle.  For years, he stayed around the 270 mark and was heavily muscled.  However, when he returned from his second quad tear at Summerslam 2007, he weighed about 245 again and had lost much of his muscle mass.  Recently, he seems to have regained some of that muscle.  It wouldn't surprise me if Triple H was busted for steroids at all.  As far as I know, right now, he's clean, but there is always a chance that he could get back on the juice sometime down the line.

Answer 5

I don't think I'm one of those "superfans" you mention.  But I AM very much an adult and a realist.  You can't be in the WWE with their travel schedule and maintain a body like Cena, Batista, Morrison, or even Mysterio or Kane, without some "help".  In the WWE, looks are everything.

What exactly that "help" is, is between the wrestler, the WWE, and what the WWE is willing to make public, depending on which scapegoat is being tossed to the wolves at the time.

So what I'm saying is, no, I'm realistic about the whole issue.  Finding out Kane is on the "juice" would make no difference whatsoever in how I react to his performances in the ring, and in storylines and promos.
