Professional Wrestling
While I do do other things than music, and my day job prevents certain opinions from being posted at all. Without it none of this would be possible, so I respect it, and will comment on what I can when I can.
Firstly from my research and personal experience, Professional Wrestling more than any other sport is a tough field regardless of the physicality it entails. It is basically a "gypsy" lifestyle where an athlete travels from show to show hundreds of days out of the year, hoping to become the "brand of the moment", or just scraping by to be discovered.
As adults, or as a lot of talent, get involved in Pro Wrestling in their teens, it may need better oversight from it's employer the "WWE". Mabey WWE needs to invest into it's product a little more on the "lifestyle" kind of things, evaluate the total person, from the cradle to the end of their carreers. As the talent gets higher up in the scheme of things, check them psychologicially, socially etc. The Lifestyle the culture, breeds the Benoit's of the wrestling world.
And yeah there are those folks who can handle the travel and workschedule, use the enhancing substances and because they eat right and do healthy things, don't wind up a whack-job. I think it's more than "time" for Vince and the WWE to begin to slow down the meat-market industry and really begin caring and putting in programs to edjucate and teach the young talent how to live right. If you start grooming kids in their teens to bring you millions down the road, you have a responsibility, to make sure these kids don't continue to become the dark side of the industry.
