I was trying to make this point in another thread. I don't necessarily think steroids is the end-all, be-all and I love the guys that can go in the ring & deliver great promos....but OP makes a good point with this in consideration: a lot of these guys just don't have that "larger than life" look. I'm not expecting everyone to be super-jacked but a lot of these cats just don't look like..."heavyweight champions", so to speak....

The audience saw Razor and went :ehh: ..."Yeah...that's a fukking pro wrestler."

If these guys showed up in plain clothes, they'd be like "Aww, that's cool. Some college guys from the Big Brother program are helping these kids out. Good for them." :obama:

...and no, I don't care if Daniel Bryan and Punk could stretch me in real life. These little kids and their parents aren't that smarky. I'd bet there are more parents nowadays that watch Raw with their kids and hear "Dad, I think you could beat up _____" than there were back in 98 when Goldberg, The Rock, Austin, HHH, and Brock were on the screen. :whoo: :whoa:

That dynamic look just isn't there these days. If only Morrison had been able to develop mic skills...:snoop:

So teaching kids the life lesson that bigger doesn't mean better fighter is a bad thing? That shyt is reality

More kids idolizing their own fathers over drugged up steroid frauds is a bad thing?

BIG SCOTT HALL ISN'T REALLY A GOOD EXAMPLE OF A STEROID ABUSER, BROTHER! HE'S NEARLY SEVEN FEET TALL, HIS JAWLINE IS GENETIC, AND HE COMES FROM A GENERATION THAT GOT INTO A LOT MORE THUGGERY THAN LATER ONES DID, DUDE! I DON'T LIKE THESE VANILLA MIDGETS, BUT TO BE HONEST, DANIEL BRYAN LOOKS A LOT MORE LIKE A TRADITIONAL GOLDEN ERA PRO WRESTLER THAN I EVER DID, MEAN GENE!

...but what about what happened to superstar billy graham and the dynamite kid and chris benoit?

graham is a poster child for the effects of roids but roiding didn't ruin dynamite kid and benoit..their high risk wrestling styles being smaller wrestlers prolly did the bulk of their damage

I believe the medical term is #wrestlefakkitry :mjpls:

What's funny is when guys try to blame lack of steroids for the downturn in the business, as opposed to say...the awful writing and same old shyt booking for the last 10 years.

to add to the fact newer wrestlers not learning to how to work properly too

Do you have a complex because you are really small? This would explain ALOT.


What's funny? Everything they said was downed by me over and over lol.

People in here backpeddling trying to nitpick, meanwhile I was a 100% correct.

I genuinely believed that John Cena wasn't on steroids all this time :russ:

He isn't.

This is America. :cenasabo:

People just tend to be WOW'ed by big athletic freaks of nature doing amazing, athletic shyt.

This is why we dig a LeBron James or a Clay Matthews or Troy Polamalu or The Undertaker or a Kurt Angle or a Brock Lesnar...

Brock Lesnar doesn't have to say a word. We get :lupe: when he comes through and fukks John Cena up b/c it just looks legit. You get a guy like Mark Henry throwing everyone in the bushes and we're like :wow:

Kofi Kingston flips over ropes and does all sorts of amazing shyt every night. We're like :manny:

Taker dives over the tope onto HBK or Brock jumps over the top rope at Extreme Rules and we're like :whoo:

You got a regular, flabby average chick twerking her flat booty meat in your face. You'll go :unsure:

....but when you got a thick, big-booty vixen with a gorgeous face like the broads that Grifter posts in the Raw threads twerking them larger-than-life cheeks, we're going :noah:, brother....

That's just the way it is....

I fukked with the cruiserweights heavy, but at the end of the night, I was still marking out for Goldberg.

Floyd Mayweather is undeniably talented...but if the 2nd comings of Mike Tyson and Ali were out here fighting today, breh....

You guys want dudes roided up to the gills but complain when dudes can barely move, are gassed 5 minutes in and injury prone.

You can't have it both ways. I'd rather see the Cesaro/Punk/DBrys of the world any day.
