Ok so I’m normally not one to “rock the boats” and it’s obvious ole Billy Boy dont have all his screws connected butttttt am I the only one who kind of agrees with him? I’m 34 and grew up with the Hogan’s. The ultimate warriors, The Giants and maybe it’s just cause I was a kid but they all seemed so special and god like and you took one look at a “well known” wrestler in the mid to late 80s and you knew there was something special about them and they would stand out in a crowd. Guys back then who had “normal “ looming body were still all jacked up. It’s like actors taking steroids or HGH to increase their appearance for movie roles....would Mickey Rourke have been as legit looking as he was in the wrestlers if he hadn’t taken steroids? I say no. I mean obviously if your gonna shoot up steroids and HGH like it’s pws candy and kill your self that’s a horrible thing. But I see his point about Cena and Batista. He’s just stating it in a “I need attention “ sort of way. I do miss the days when you had your larger than life guys...you had your giant guys...you had your super heavy guys. Now everyone is 6 foot tall..210-220 pounds and posting on twitter and doing CrossFit. There’s no magic anymore and they guys just look like everyday guys who do cardio and lift. No excuse for a wrestle who gets paid to work out/ no excuse for them to have worst bodies then a guy who works 40+ hours a week, and does it as a hobby. Just my 2 cents Nah, I'm cool with my wrestlers today living long, healthy lives, and not dying before they hit 50 with hearts the size of dodgeballs, thanks. Yeah... the majority of wrestlers from Mania 1 2 and 3 are dead... that is only 34 years ago... the death toll should be nowhere near like 50% for each of them. was it only steroids that did damage? No... but they sure as hell didn't help. not to mention those that are alive still after doing massive steroids tend to not be in a great place physically.

Again....not all guys take them like pez candy. Steroids can do a lot of good if you know what your doing. What’s funny is. Most of the guys who died before they were 50 were all mostly late 80s/early 90s guy who also had drug habits. I guess the Tony Atles’s...Hulk Hogan’s, Brutus Beefcakes, Ric Flairs, Rick Martels, Butch Reeds etc don’t count. There's no way Hogan wasn't a cokehead in the 80s.

With all this Graham bashing, I am reminded of ehat he said on commentary during the steel cage match between Dibiase and Savage at MSG that was televised. He mentioned that Elizabeth should get bigger. He naturally did not say steroids but I do find that line to be very ironic due to his bad attitude.

I don't think I've ever wanted to be actual friends with a wrestler more than I want to be friends with Kofi, and by extension, Woods and E.
And I'm actually friends with a lot of wrestlers!
