[Bouncer]

Former WWE wrestler Luther Reigns ( aka Matthew Wiese ) suffered a stroke recently and rehabs on an outpatient program at a hospital in Glendale, Ariz. The 36 year-old Reigns told the Arizona Republic that a culture of steroid and painkiller abuse led to the stroke. "We wrestled every night, damn near every night," he said. "We were beat to hell. So we needed pain pills to do our job."

another big enough to make news name blaming steroids. Key to it PK's you can't constantly abuse PKs and not expect this to happen. Most people don't even understand that PK's won't stop your heart - it's your head (stroke) that takes the beating - mix them up w/steroids you are asking for trouble.

pks can stop your heart and the steroids probably had something to do with his stroke
