The WWE need to implement a stricter, more thorough drug policy and also have an off-season I think. Hell, the off-season only needs to be about a month/a month and half, and that would help.
I don't really think many people on the indies use steroids, although I remember hearing rumours that Aries is. But indy talent, outside of some ROH guys, arn't locked down to a contract anyway so it is up to them what bookings they take. If someone wants to take 300+ bookings in one year, that's their decision and although it will secure them a better pay, they should be prepared to face the price of taking those bookings. The price being that either they're gonna be on ****loads of drugs and medication, or their bodies will be broke down.
That's the problem with the wrestling business. You need to take more bookings if you want good pay, yet taking more bookings means there is a higher chance of you being on medication and abusing painkillers. However, take less bookings and your body is safer, yet you don't earn as much. The wrestling world is far from perfect.
And I'm saying all this without reading that article. I really don't want to. Seriously, who the
cares about Mike Johnson anyway. He's a fan, just like me :l
