The horrific tragedy playing out in suburban Atlanta, involving pro wrestler Chris Benoit and the double murder-suicide at his home is already being linked to that most evil of culprits - steroids.
Apparently, he smothered his 7-year-old son, strangled his wife and then hung himself in his weight room. Sources are telling CNN (right there in Atlanta) they suspect steroid involvement and this being a case of steroid rage. One look at Benoit in the ring and how he looks would lend some level of creedence.
Normally I would say this would spell doom for pro wrestling because the dirty little secret, which has already claimed other lives (Eddy Guerrero) and is now taking innocent lives. But the resilient WWE paid a three-hour tribute to Benoit Monday night, which appears ridiculous in light of the emerging news stories. Hell, it bumped off a storyline about the "death" of WWE leader Vince McMahon - great, exploiting tragedy for ratings.
Just like Fox News.
And the pro wrestling fans have apparently found a new blood lust in this shit called mixed-martial arts which is legalized mugging to the Rollerball-style cheering of people. I guess that is totally steroid free --right????????
At least Jason Giambi or Barry Bonds didn't kill anyone.
