More On WWE Steroid Scandal: Wrestlers Purchased Drugs After Start of Wellness Policy, New Wrestlers Named
Posted by Ashish on 08.30.2007
WWE Wellness Policy loses all credibility in the latest shocking turn...
Sports Illustrated has a new article online listing the names of drugs purchased by many of the WWE wrestlers named today as being linked to Signature Pharmacy, an online pharmacy that was raided in February for selling steroids and other drugs to people without being examined by doctors. The big new twist, however, is that the article also has dates of when these wrestlers purchased drugs, most of which fall after the start of the WWE Wellness Policy in February of 2006.
* Chris Benoit is listed as having received nandrolone and anastrozole in February 2006. Anastrozole is a drug that is used by athletes to counter side effects of steroid use, such as water retention and breast enlargement.
* Eddie Guerrero is listed as having received nandrolone, testosterone, and anastrozole two weeks prior to his death on November 13th, 2005.
* Chavo Guerrero is listed as having received somatropin (HGH), nandrolone and anastrozole (among other drugs) from April 2005 and May 2006.
* Shane Helms is listed as having received testosterone, genotropin (HGH) and nandrolone (among other drugs) from November 2003 to February 2007.
* Randy Orton is listed as having received somatropin, nandrolone, stanozolol from September 2004 through February 2007.
* John Hennigan (John Morrison) is listed as having received somatropin, anastrozole, testosterone, stanozolol and human chorionic gonadotropin from June 2006 to February 2007. Human chorionic gonadotropin is taken by anabolic steroid users to stimulate the production of testosterone, which is suppressed as a result of steroid use.
* Ken Andersom (Mr. Kennedy) is listed as having received anastrozole, somatropin and testosterone from October 2006 to February 2007. Kennedy made national TV appearances a few weeks ago denying any drug abuse since the start of WWE's Wellness Policy and defending the policy, saying it was strict and legit.
* Shoichi Funaki is listed as receiving somatropin in March 2006.
* Brian Adams (Crush) is listed as having received nandrolone, testosterone and Somatropin or HGH in December of 2006. Adams was found dead of unknown causes on August 13th, 2007.
* Charlie Haas is listed as having received anastrozole, somatropin, stanozolol, nandrolone and chorionic gonadotropin from August 2006 to January 2007.
* Edward Fatu (Umaga) is listed as receiving somatropin from July 2006 to December 2006.
* Darren Matthews (William Regal) is listed as having received stanozolol, somatropin, genotropin, and anastrozole from November 2004 to November 2006.
* Adam Copeland (Edge) is listed as having received somatropin, genotropin (both HGH), and stanozolol from September 2004 to February 2007.
* Sylvain Grenier is listed as having received somatropin, nandrolone, genotropin and stanozolol from February 2005 to July 2006.
The article says that WWE's Gary Davis declined comment on their report.
