    That came from JR's blog, right?

    Look up a few posts to see that I posted the link to the Angle story. I guess Meltzer and the others make it a second source, but they're all using the same report on the link from above.

    I can't wait for the returns of such luminaries as The Mountie, Koko B. Ware, The Berzerker and, of course, the big draw, the Gobbledy Gooker!
     
  4. Claws, I thought the same thing. A good friend of mine is a PA and she said you usually see torn pecs, triceps, biceps, quads from very muscular people and most of the time the reason they get that way is because of steroids. She said tendons aren't meant to support large muscle mass and they easily snap when that's the case. The muscle just tears off the bone. I just got the shivers thinking about that.

    Obviously, you'd hope that Cena would not be doing this in the wake of everything they gone through with the suspensions and all but especially with the WWE, it's literally guilt by association. Any injury is going to raise suspicion.

    Again, no one else answered this, but is it funny how Dr. Andrews is always available for the wrestlers at a moment's notice or other pro athletes. Does Andrews do all the surgeries or are there others who do it because as often as people get injured and he does the procedure, he's around the WWE guys more often than not.

    I highly doubt Cena's injury is a result from steriods. I know a handful of people who are friends with either Cena or a member of his family and I've never even heard a single whisper about steriod use. Also, he graduated with a degree in exercise physiology from Springfield College and was heavy into working out and building his body up the right way since he was 12 or 13. He moved to Los Angeles to pursue bodybuilding in the late 90's and was discovered in a Gold's Gym.

    On another note, how much do you think Andrews makes? He works on about 30 surgaries a week and has totaled FORTY THOUSAND in his lifetime, according to this ESPN story:

    Will Carroll even wants the guy in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Andrews is apparently the Michael Jordan of his profession.

    You know what would just piss of the entire wrestling community and fans around the world?

    if they'd have another Battle Royal and have the Great Khali win it again.

    Outing alert:

    Kar33mSkyhook is actually Vincent Kennedy McMahon!

    Fear The Vise Grip!
     
  11. Does anyone know why Mr. Kennedy and Randy Orton are still allowed to wrestle, despite being mentioned in the investigation? Is there a double standard?

    Kennedy served his 30-day suspension. Orton, I have no idea about.
