With the deaths of wrestlers such as Owen Hart, Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit, I wanted to get opinions on what people think about Pro Wrestling. Sure it is "scripted", but I watched it as a kid and still am a fan. I don't take it seriously or anything, but its something to watch on monday when I'm home. I really only watch to see Randy Orton beat up the old guys and watch John Cena get booed. I personally think pro wrestling has been mutated into a world of drug abuse and all around problems from wrestlers passing away to kids trying moves on each other.
What really blows me away is how Vince McMahon says that wrestling has no adverse influence on kids doing this to each other, and its the parents responsibility to take matters into their own hands. Sure he is right, but you have to admit when you're wrong some point in time. If you're kid received a broken neck from another child trying moves, would you agree with him?
People just need to realize that its just wrestling and those guys are completely different people in real life, or out of the ring. Steroid abuse does not lie solely with wrestling though...especially with baseball and football.
