I guess "survivor" series was wishful thinking.

 

[WhosJoeMama]

So are drugs

Survivor Series is actually a troll job by Vince Mcmahon. In reality, Survivor Series takes place over 40 years. After 40 years, he rounds up the wrestlers still alive, and they wrestle in pudding to the death. That is the real survivor series.

I still can't believe Owen turned on Bret...

Vince McMahon should seriously have served some prison time. He operated a company that encouraged heavy drug use to make it through a serious work schedule. So many people are dead because Vince is a workaholic and wanted his wrestlers to work whether they were hurt or not and expected muscular physiques.

I'm guessing the real killer wasn't coke but rather the combination of steroids and painkillers and he likely wasn't on as many roids as the majority of guys in that era, the muscle monsters of the late 80's and early 90's do have a pretty terrible survival rate.

Never saw UFC 1.

Survivor Series 1993 was boring, though.

I remember the Smokey Mountain tag match with Cornett being quite fun.

That's a decent guess. I was shocked to find out Jake Roberts used steroids at all, since he didn't have any muscle or size in his prime. I think he's still going to die soon because you can't really take back all the damage drugs have done to him.

Bill Hicks used to tell use to tell this joke about how he thought that after a nuclear war only two things would survive, cockroaches and Keith Richards. "I saw a light. I thought we were on."
