Hey guys, I'm finally back. *crickets* Whatever. I was just on the OVW page, and came across this guy..... www.ovwrestling.com/Superstars/Superstars/andrewvain.htmAndrew Vain eh? Looks like a wellness failure to be. Who is Vince trying to fool by bringing in guys like this, and allowing Reeves back into OVW? "Oh yes Congress, we discourage steroid usage in our performers from the main roster, as well as our developmental." This is the equivalent of Pat Patterson telling us he's not gay, while the new call-up is being forced to rub oil on him. With guys like that around in OVW, you don't think some of the guys who don't have as much chance of being called up looking at them for ideas? Thoughts? Feelings? A random Snitsky attack? |

He might not be a WWE Developmental talent so I guess he isnt susceptable to the Wellness Policy.

you know, there are SOME people who work very hard to look like that and it's probably not right to just automatically assume something about a person without knowing anything about them.

Welcome to the world in which we live. Now if someone that is actually clean, but naturally put together, starts to get somewhere we have to question whether they used anything "extra" to get there.
This actually goes for any sport.
I am not saying this new guy has or has not used enhancers. I do not know him, nor do I know of him. I am just saying that it sucks that this is what we are left with anytime anyone ripped comes before us. The same goes for any competetive athlete that is simply better than those around him.
Damn science!

Actually he is developmental (he just signed like 2-3 months ago).
And for the record, he sucks. I just saw him wrestle two days ago and he messed up a bunch of moves.

Soory lildude, but in 2007 EVERYONE is under the microscope. Just look at MLB. When the Mitchell report comes out next week, ther will be plenty of names on the list that people were "sure" were clean. It sucks, but thats where we are today with athletes. I wish it wasn't like this, but I also wish I had a million bucks. |

I didn't flat out say the guy was on roids, but I've also seen him, and he sucks big time in the ring, and only got signed cuz he's huge one way or another. Having guys like that get signed only because they're huge with no actual ability is a bad example for talented guys who just aren't quite as big, so instead of working on maneuvers, they're trying to pack in more hours of gym time, and realizing they aren't getting big as fast as they'd like, that's how roids seem like a good idea.
That said, I do think he'd have to be on roids at some point to get THAT huge.
As for my Reeves comment, he's already failed once....

Did Reeves get re-signed? I saw him on tv a few weeks ago as "Gorilla Man" (no I am not kidding).
Just be happy that Vain's tag partner, Anthony Bravado, hasn't been signed. Now that guy looks gassed. And he sucks worse than Vain

Fact is, big is better from a TV perspective. It's like in the movies, sure people who have big noses and un-tort foreheads CAN get movie roles but producers and the audience by and large prefer they all had pretty little noses and a face so tight you can bounce a coin off of it.
If you ask me perpetuating a big-boobied, tight face, size-8 ideal image of women that Hollywood does is a LOT more harmful than some bonehead with slightly bigger pecs being given a push in a wrestling company.

Vein does look gassed up, but in my opinion he actually looked even more juiced to the gills than he does now when I saw a picture of him a few months ago in Derby City. As for Reeves, he's not under contract, he's just back in OVW working without a deal.
