I'd say Vince probably does take steroids, but its not like you can just sit at the couch and become much bigger just by taking them but Vince does work out a lot I hear, and hates to lose to anyone when working out,a small rivalary with his son in law even,He blew out both his knees,with HHH only blowing out one, and recovered in 1/2 of the time HHH needed I believe.HHH told a story on some dvd I think where if he'd do 100, then Vince would have to do 100,he'd go to 120 or something and Vince would do the same.

Anyone else surprised Balls Mahoney still has a job?Besides Taz and Tommy Dreamer, hes the last ECW orginal to have a job,but Taz and Tommy were with the WWE even before that, so hes the last orginal they brought in.

Yea i now steroids arent some miracle drug, and that you also have to put the work in, but i think its kinda hypocritical that Vince comes down so hard on people that use them, when he almost certainly used/uses them himself. I lift weights and know a fair deal about it and to make gains like that, at that kind of age, is near enough impossible. You never know tho, maybe Vince is just a freak or had been training all along. To be honest i think if Vince had his own way all the wrestlers would be jacked, i think he just makes it look like he hates juicing to make the WWE brand look more wholesome.

Vince was a bodybuilder when he was younger or at least very big into it. He wanted to be a wrestler, but his father wouldn't allow it. I'd venture to say he's always been a pretty big dude, but we never knew since he was always wearing suits and shit.

Yea that would make sense, i never noticed at teh time but rewatching older stuff now, he always looked pretty broad at the shoulders in his suits.

One used is 16 plus 8 shipping. 24 ain't bad. Just got to see if this actual seller will ship to the states.

You may wait a few more weeks. I think the paperback comes out sometime this month. That's what I'm doing.

Stevie too,Had forgotten him, and Vince has to come down hard on them now,its a good thing overall though.With Benoit doing the unthinkable and Congress and the media staring down at wrestling he has to.gee I hate Congress,You'd think they have something better to do then to get into baseball and wrestling and ask about steroid use when the economy is in a recession.
