WWE and steroids - a brewing scandal?

I just have to point out that steroids within the WWE most likely exist, but I dont think it will ever be 100% confirmed.

People say they supply them, people say they allow the use of performance enhancing drugs, some people beg to differ, some people say the WWE superstars are clean as a whistle, but for 40 years now you would think the public would have a much more clear picture, but we do not.

The only people who know are the people we see on WWE Programming, and people we dont see on WWE programming.

We have had people, like I have mentioned in previous articles about wrestling, like Bret Hart, Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, Edge, Christian, Eddie Guerrero, John Cena, Triple H, and Vince McMahon, upon countless others who have said everything from "Vince supplied his wrestlers with steroids" to "The WWE Wellness policy is 100% in effect".

Divide it up, you had guys like Bret Hart, the Ultimate Warrior, and hulk hogan, who, while NOT under a WWE / WWF Contract admit to the use of steroids being more common then one would believe.

Then you have guys like Edge, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Christian who have openly, in there own ways, either admitted, acknowledged or denied there own personal usage of steroids.

Then people like Triple H, Vince McMahon, John Cena, "Mr Kennedy", Rey Mysterio upon countless others who constantly (at least since the death and media outbreak of the Benoit story) denied countless times that there was any use of performance enhancing drugs in WWE. Most notably, Ken Kennedy, also known as Mr Kennedy in the WWE, has put his foot in his mouth, so to say, by claiming that the WWE has a very well policy and he was clean, yet a month or so later, he gets busted for "failing a test".

You can't say for sure who is doing them and who isn't, because in all honesty it really is their own choice.

As for a scandal? Possibly. Vince McMahon, I believe, I could be wrong on this, was quoted once as saying "Any publicity is good publicity" including bad publicity at that, so there could always be that sort of motive in the back of his mind to keep the ball rolling, so to say, and make his jacked up powerhouses of wrestlers always hold the mystery of whether or not they are "clean" or not so the media will continue to publicize the WWE for it.

I won't post a biased opinion on this next subject I am going to touch, but its clear and people need to take into consideration of just exactly what the human body is
