Yep, he messed it up. It has nothing to do with the fact that he has a physically demanding career and as a result he has become addicted to painkillers. Nope, he and he alone messed it up.

The reasons for him taking the drugs/painkillers/whatever are irrelevant. Whether they should all be banned or not is irrelevant.
What is relevant is that they are not allowed, he knew that, yet still chose to go against at what could be the peak of his career.

Yeah, because addiction is a choice.

In a profession such as wrestling or any sport for that matter, it's nearly impossible to stay off of drugs, no matter what the circumstances. Jeff did what 75% of all wrestlers would do and that's take painkillers to ease things up. He's not a moron. I think that the Wellness Policy is a crock, anyway. I bet the people who are good friends with Vince are probably currently taking the same thing that Hardy got busted with, but aren't punished.

75%? I'd be suprised at anything less than 85%, and I'd say it's more likely that it's in the 90-95% range.

I was being generous :)

I agree with theone86, Jeff Hardy blew it. A man needs to take responsibility for his actions, excuses are unacceptable the second time around. He knew what he was doing and if there was a problem he should have gotten help. Now he's forced to get help. Personally I hope he overcomes all this and can live a drug free life. From a wrestling point of view, I think Jeff just blew any shot he had at ever holding the WWE title.

I feel that my opinion has been misrepresented, or misunderstood, or both. My opinion on the wellness program is that it takes too much of a hard stance, and that eliminating random testing and dealing with wrestlers on a case to case basis instaed of having rigid punishment guidelines would be more beneficial. The whole thing, from the start, has never really been about helping anybody. It was basically a detraction method because people were making a connection between Eddie's death and steroid use and getting on WWE's back, and it continues to be an overglorified detraction method to this day.

What they should do is offer rehab to ANYONE who gets caught. They shouldn't wait until somebody ends up like Nick Dinismore and rehab becomes mandatory.
From JamesP on 3/12/08 7:08 PM
Basically, rather than the 3 strikes you're out rule, they should actually be erious about getting the roster clean, rather than trying to look like the gold standard for morals and look good for press by suspending any wrestler on drugs and doing nothing else. Maybe I should organize all of this into a blog. But then that would just add more fuel to willierko's and Petedaddydolla's fire.
