I agree completely. Vince has upped the policy and is constantly suspending and releasing wrestlers left and right for taking steroids. The stars of the most recent generation are well-aware of the risks, but they still do it in hopes of not getting caught. When they're deliberately going against the company to do that type of shit, that's when the responsibility starts lying solely on them.

Yet another wrestler passes away far too early
Its time that something is done to stop this trend that has been happening in pro wrestling for far too long

It hasn't happened in nearly 2 years. Last wrestler to die early was Crush :( & it was due to sleep apnea.

Darn shame too, it coulda went through if Vince Russo woulda never left. And if it went through, it was said that Test would find a way to dump Stephanie & have some kind of connection with Linda so he can get more power. And Triple Paulitics would probably be back to mid card status instead of on top nearly all the time. And WCWF wouldn't be complete garbage since 2003.

I know it's unfair to blame steroids every single time, but you have to admit, that does seem to be the common denominator amongst all of these wrestlers who recently passed away. Depending on how badly they abused it, being clean for a couple years isn't going to reverse all of the side effects that it could take on someone's health.
Nevertheless, R.I.P. to the man who never got to marry Stephanie McMahon.

The common denominator is steroids + pain killers + roofies + coke + heroin + alcohol + sleeping pills + whatever the fuck else you can think of. Take steroids out of that list and these guys still end up dead.

Not Eddie, or anyone else who was clean for several years. His enlarged heart complications was a result of steroid abuse. Most the other shit you listed, despite all having horrible long-term effects, isn't going to destroy your heart like that in a fatal manner when you've been staying away from it for so long.
It just so happens that a lot of these other guys who passed away in the past couple years weren't clean of everything when they died, so the steroids gets mixed into all the other shit that they've done.

If what you are saying is true then the body building world would have a much higher body count than wrestling. Where are the dead bodybuilders?

McMahon chose in the 80s to create a product that promotes a wrestler with a certain physique. McMahon chose to sell these hulking muscle men to children. McMahon chose to do everything but personal sell the steroids to wrestlers. McMahon chose to put guys on the road 300 days a year with out paying for their travel or shelter. The wrestlers chose to go through with it. That's their own fault. It doesn't change the fact that McMahon is a slimy cunt.
There are only two men that could have stopped McMahon from running the business the way he did, Hogan the night before Wrestlemania 3 and Austin the night before Wrestlemania 17. Either of those men at those times could have made a list of demands for the entire company and told McMahon to sign or they don't show for Mania. Both of those men were told by peers at the time that they can do it. Both of those men refused to. So it's not any more Vince's fault than it is Hogan's or Austin's.
At the end of the day McMahon is a circus man. He preys on the stupid and uses them for his act and when he doesn't need them any more he throws them away. He's nothing like his father, and when Vince himself isn't around to praise his own name no one else is going to do it. He single-handedly destroyed the wrestling business and he doesn't even know it yet.
