WWE Wellness policy changes

WWE has announced major changes to its wellness program:

1 - From now on, anti-estrogens such as Anastrozole, are forbidden too (they are usually taken to cover some of steroids' effects such as growth of breast issue).

2 - It was announced that Dr. Joseph Maroon was hired as the program's Medical Director.

3 - Some pre-contract exams are compulsory (mainly cardivascular, drug screening and physical exams).

4 - WWE is offering free rehabilitation to all former WWE superstars who may need it (it's said that over a dozen have already taken it, although only some have made public - Waltman, Hall, Roberts and Simmons)

5 - The program includes not only wrestlers but also referees, announcers, commentators, etc.

The source also includes a list of the 37 WWE performers who have been suspended since the start of the wellness program.

I can't believe you left out the funniest part of the article. They also have to strip down now to give the urine sample. Why you ask? Because Afa Jr tried to cheat on his drug test by using a realistical prosthetic penis. Just mentioning it <_<

Jim niedhart used to take a dump in the sample to avoid them finding the speed he used to take. there's tonnes of techniques the stars of yesteryear used to use to mess with the tests... On a lighter side; looks like JR might be up for a suspension then ey? Getting high off the good ol' oklahoma BBQ :p Maybe The king Jerry Lawler might be suspended for his addiction... of puppies?
