There is no scandal in the WWE over steroids. Let me make that perfectly clear. This unbelievable connection between the two will probably never go away, but here is my two cents on it.

First of all Vince McMahon was never found guilty for pushing steroids on his wrestlers in a court of law. Even Hulk Hogan who was employed by WCW at the time testified that Vince didn't force his wrestlers to use steroids.

Second the WWE has a stricked policy against steroid use. Many wrestlers have already lost there jobs because of it. Third I am so sick, and tired of this whole Chris Benoit story getting intertwined with wrestling. One has nothing to do with the other. The only connection is that Chris Benoit was a wrestler. His occupation had nothing to do with the death of his wife, child, or himself. One other thing on that whole Benoit roid rage rumor. How many people do you know of that have had roid rage for three full days, and out of those people. How many of them took the time during there roid rage to do little things like tie some one up, or lay a bible next to them. The answer to that question would be zero, because anybody that is enraged about anything, or due to anything would not take the time to worry about little things.

Any death of any wrestler is automatically linked to steroids, and then to organization that they work for. The evidence is right there in front of you. If you would just look at it. Being a wrestler is hard work. Not just mentally, but physically. There office(the ring) is made out of metal, and wood. There is no spring underneath, and it is not a trampoline. The faster people who want to jump into something like this, and point the finger at pro wrestling wise up. The faster they would realize that these men are in pain 365 days a year. They feel they need pain killers, and other meds to help them deal with it. It would be like you having a headache before you go to work. What do you do? You go to the store, and get some Tylenol, or aspirin to help you deal with it. Only you take to many, and get sick from it. Then your spouse points the finger at your employer, and says it is there fault you got sick, because they scheduled you to work that day.

The main focus here should not be a witch hunt for Vince McMahon, but more of finding a way to eliminate the accessibility of steroids to athletes.
