should one of the best pro wrestlers have to take steroids to be the best?

Man, I don't feel so bad watching wrestling..lol this is a good wrestling debate..lol

Steve austin sold more tickets, merchandise, best viewing numbers etc then any superstar in wwe history - not to mention he was the main face of the most successful period in wwe (attitude era).

Lol dude I'm a fan of all of those guys (including cena) but the fact is austin made the most money ever for wwe, followed by hogan.

So if we are judging the greatest wrestler by how much money he made the company (which we should since its basically a soap opera) - Its Austin then Hogan.

Ah, interesting. I thought he was simply popular because I lived in Texas at the peak of his career.

The guys who made the most money for Vince were Austin & Hogan, so technically the rock isn't the most successful wrestler of all time (the most successful outside of the ring - yes).

Also, he was 6'5 270, not exactly small bro

When compared to guys like Ezekiel Jackson, Batista back in the early 2000's when he was ripped @ 300+ lbs. Brock lesnar when he was 25 coming in at 300lbs. Compared to those guys rock wasn't in their size class. And rock is hands down the most successful wrestler ever. Most successful in wwe/f? No I'd say that would go to Austin.

Rock had decent size back in the day but wasn't really massive. The guy is huge now that he can focus more on building mass without the demands of a wrestling schedule.

Oh jesus. Thats what i was talking about not jumping in too deep too early lol. Obviously your call and alot of dudes do blast and cruise especially for career needs... But remember if you do that its most likely gonna be a decision for life. Once you start blast and cruise theres a VERY good chance you'll have to inject at least twice a week for the rest of your life right up until you die.


And if your gonna do that I'd seriously suggest switching to prescriptionn TRT after a year or teo when you have no hope lf recovery anyway, and let a doctor monitor you from then on. Its not just test levels your affecting by being shutdown. Cruising by yourself can become unbealthy... Unless your gettin regular bloodwork and know what your doing, or at the very least posting it up here n let the boys take a look at it.

Your concerns are spot-on, but considering the OP's career he has no choice but to be on gear all the time if he expects to have any kind of success

You need charisma, kinesthetic intelligence, good genetics to start. You don't have to look like a greek god all the time(Undertaker, Kane, Big show) but it helps. AAS is pretty much part of the job. In a career that makes one so prone to injury and fatigue, with hours of training, steroids hasten muscle recovery and decreases injury recovery time. These guys have to hardcore bodybuild while training techniques, acting(not the best obviously) and scripts. All the while, traveling most days of the year. It's a lot of work.

I read everything I agree yeah I think if I cycle for years until I get to the www and once I reach being a wwe wrestler I think it would be best to go to a doctor and have them put me on trt for life to help maintain everything I took to look somewhat the same without losing to much muscle but just be on trt to be able to just take testosterone so that I can maintain my look sounds fine

Your life bro. Live it
