Wresting isnt a sport but it is in the sence of how much these guys put the body through.
Its disturbing the damage that is done.
If it was a "sport" and not classified as "entertainment" more regulation could be made for these people. From steroid abuse to pain meds and workload. Its all too much and you can clearly see it in the epidemic of deaths of 30 and 40 year olds with heart attacks.
no other sport will you see this.
Not UFC, not Boxing, Not the NFL or Rugby.
Pro wrestling although "fake" has the most "real" tolls on the body.
These athletes or actors take more of a beating than all other sports combined and at a intense level of abuse that doesnt let the body rest or recover.
Its very disturbing.
And only going to get worse.
The fact that the majority of these guys once they leave the biz find themselves broke simply becasue of medical bills and lack of health insurance is also a very disturbing trend..
Untreated related health issues from wrestling hidden by the chronic taking of pain meds, no health insurance to help or provide treatment all a real recipie for disaster.
RIP to this guy.
