I can’t tell you that I haven’t, but you’ll never be able to prove that I have.
I would say John Cena’s statement is pretty much gonna sum up any interview George Mitchell’s baseball steroid investigation is able to land. No amount of links to internet pharmacies or accusations by other players is gonna make a guy come out and say “Yeah, I used roids. What of it?”
Steroid use in wrestling isn’t a newsflash.. And overall, steroid use in sports isn’t new, but you don’t hear anybody wanting to put asterisk next to the 70s Steelers or the late 80s A’s. Roids and PEDs are hot button issues, but MLB’s increasing attendance and revenue, combined with our nation’s love for the NFL, tell me that the general public only wants to be entertained.
**MAJOR UPDATE**
When I wrote this post, I trusted that CNN had shown the interview in at least an 80% accurate light. I was wrong. WWE.com has posted two versions of the CNN’s John Cena interview from “Death Grip: Inside Pro Wrestling”. In response to the actual steroid question, John Cena responds “Absolutely not”. The statement I quoted above was taken from Cena speaking about a broad example.
One question? CNN, WTF?!? I don’t need any help looking like a jackass.. I’m a blogger.. And as a blogger I’m pissed. Bloggers are the ones that are supposed to make up news and fabricate stories just so we can get views hits. If the MSM is gonna start bogartin’ the unethical side of journalism, what will us unemployed lowlifes with keyboards do to entertain nerds that are wasting their company’s time and money reading our blogs?

Cena, Batista, Chris Masters, Bobby Lashley, Lex Luger they all did steroids think about it guys your in a company where physique is a strong point WWE may be just acting out the matches but you still have to look like you now what you’re doing ps. WWE is just storylines and Cena Sucks
