The former WWE and TNA wrestling star, Matt Hardy, is back in jail. Hardy was arrested early Saturday morning after he was reportedly booted from a rehabilitation center after failing a Breathalyzer test.

The 37-year-old was booked into the jail at 1:40 a.m. on Saturday. Jeff Hardy, his brother, is back competing in TNA Wrestling after receiving 10 days in jail, 30 days probation, and a fine of $100,000 in a September plea bargain that stemmed from his 2009 arrest on drug charges.

From Thepilot.com:

Multiple wrestling websites are reporting that Hardy was expelled from the rehab program on Nov. 18 after he failed a Breatha-lyzer test. Members of the rehabilitation center staff administered the test after they became suspicious of Hardy’s behavior, according to TMZ.com.

Hardy said he wasn’t drinking and had failed the test because he’d just used mouthwash, TMZ reported.

“I’m reading a lot of ridiculous things on the ‘dirtsheets’ tonight,” Hardy’s girlfriend, Reby Sky, said on Formspring. “So to clear things up: I could have bailed him out and did not. He’s still in jail. Have fun with that.”

Hulk Hogan has insisted that he “never laid a hand” on his ex-wife following her domestic abuse claims.

Linda Hogan, former spouse of the wrestling legend, claimed in her new autobiography, Wrestling the Hulk: My Life Against the Ropes, that he had a violent temper that would manifest itself physically when they argued.

From Nzherald.co.nz:

But the 57-year-old TNA grappler has branded Linda’s allegation a “total, blatant lie” and has accused her of still trying to trade off his famous name.

Insisting he has “no reason” to defend himself, he said during a radio interview on the Bubba the Love Sponge Show: “Dude, I never laid a hand on her … If you step back and take a really good look at this – if you take the Hulk Hogan name out of her situation, her life, her career, the air she breathes … she’s out of gas. She’s still riding on the Hulk Hogan name. Just take her and put her in the same category with the Iron Sheik and the Ultimate Warrior. They all belong together.”

The Iron Sheik and the Ultimate Warrior are former wrestling opponents of Hulk – real name Terry Bollea – and have been vocal critics of him during their retirements.

Linda said, “Drugs were always around – prescribed. Wrestlers have always got injuries. There was a constant flow of pain pills, anti-inflammatories, steroids – a lot of them did take steroids. It makes somebody – you don’t know what you’re dealing with.”

Hulk Hogan insisted recently he “never laid a hand” on his ex-wife following her domestic abuse claims.

Jim Cornette, veteran commentator, promoter and booker for TNA, aired his sentiments over the condition of wrestling by saying that wrestlers are forced into drugs. This remark has come as a serious blow to reports in the past that Vince McMahon did not support the use of steroids.

Cornette also remarked that Vince McMahon is promoting larger-than-life stars in WWE and the wrestlers are supporting his ideology by using steroids to keep a high-profile job in the wrestling business.

From Pwtorch.com:

Cornette views Andrew “Test” Martin as an example of a wrestler being re-hired because he has a certain look and not for any additional talent he could bring to the table. Cornette says Martin probably felt the need to look a certain way, which required use of steroids.

“As far as Test goes, it’s a tragedy that a guy is 33 years old and is gone because he got involved in professional wrestling,” Cornette said recently on the Who’s Slamming Who podcast. “In the old days, everybody was a cowboy and if they did drugs, they did it for recreation because they were making too much money. That’s almost easier to take, to me, than guys feeling like they have to do drugs to keep a job or they have to do drugs because their bodies are so broken down from the style that they get addicted to them.”

Cornette says the combination of hardcore wrestling and fewer jobs in wrestling have made it difficult for wrestlers to stay away from an addictive lifestyle. Moves don’t mean as much, so wrestlers have to use weapons that lead to pain pill addiction. Fewer jobs are available with only one major player, so wrestlers have to look a certain way to get major-league work.

Cornette further remarked that there seems to be no coming back for the good for wrestlers particularly when they have shorter life-spans in the business and in life.

Total Non-stop Action Wrestling, the second largest wrestling promotion, behind WWE is noted not to have a wellness policy.

TNA must seriously consider establishing a wellness policy as media would normally turn to WWE every time a wrestler gets busted for steroids or drug use.

There are number of reasons why TNA should have a wellness policy. It includes getting the message across that steroids and other performance enhancing drugs are not tolerated in professional wrestling.

TNA gives the impression of offering an open door for anyone using steroids, PEDs and painkillers.

Ex-WWE wrestlers involved in steroids issue usually enter TNA after being released from WWE. This creates a very negative impression on TNA.

Having a wellness policy improves TNA’s credibility, as more viewers become attracted to the company. Many wrestlers also prefer to work in a company with a clean and honest reputation to avoid their reputation from being tarnished in return.

A wellness policy is also one means to control future “accidents” or deaths in the future. Several wrestlers have wasted their life over drugs, stars such as the late Andrew “Test” Martin or Curt “Mr. Perfect” Henning.

Finally, media would less likely criticize pro wrestling if wrestlers come out clean. Nobody wants pro wrestling destroyed just because of controversies such as wrestlers getting caught from using steroids.

From Bleacher report:

Even I have called TNA out on some of these issues but something that grinds my gears about TNA, and something that strangely no one has brought up, is that they have yet to establish a wellness policy.

As of right now, TNA has no wellness policy at all, not even one in basic form.

“The Test” Andrew Martin was found dead at his apartment in Tampa, Florida Friday night. The suspected cause of his death was steroid overdose. Reports said a neighbour had peeked in one of Martin’s windows and saw the former World Wrestling Entertainment champ motionless. A call was then placed on 911 and police immediately rushed to the scene.There were no indications of foulplay so drug overdose is the most likely cause, but this is yet to be confirmed as soon as autopsy reports are released.

He joined Total Nonstop Action Wrestling in 2007. He debuted in a tag team match with The Abyss and Sting against AJ Styles and Christian Cages. His last match before his death was against “Christian’s Coalition” where he, the Abyss and Sting defeated AJ, Christian, and Tomko.

From Wrestling Edge:

This would prove to be Martin’s one and only match in TNA as company officials decided against offering him a contract due to concerns over his physical size in light of the impending United States Congress investigation into the wrestling business following the Chris Benoit family tragedy. Additionally, his unimpressive wrestling debut, the feeling that he wouldn’t mesh well in the locker room, and an untimely post he wrote on his MySpace account defending the usage of steroids in professional wrestling, also factored into the company’s decision to not bring him back.

Regarding the MySpace post, Martin defended steroids by saying they’re mostly used for cosmetic reasons, and compared them to a facelift or botox. However, he said it’s wrong for athletes in other sports to use them because steroids give them a competitive edge.

Standing 6’6” tall, Martin became known as “The Test” because he always challenged his opponents to pass the test. He was also known as “The Punisher.” He was the latest among the string of wrestlers who died, the last was Chris Benoit. Andrew Martin died at the age of 33.

It was just recently when Rep. Henry Waxman revealed the wide use of performance enhancing drugs in WWE and TNA. It was only recently when various wrestling officials have been interviewed about this issue. Vince McMahon, the chairman of the World Wrestling Entertainment Board of directors and also a major shareholder, was one of those important figures who spoke up. Unfortunately, not everyone was contented at how he addressed the matter, such as Rich Twilling, who wrote in his article:

From ProWrestling.net

First of all, it quickly became annoying every time Vince claimed he did not understand the questions being asked or said things like, “I do not know where you are going with this.” After Vince’s horrible display of dialing a telephone during the Million Dollar Mania giveaways on Raw, I figured he was out of touch and despite being a great business; he probably was not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

However, for Vince McMahon to pretend he does not know everything going on in his company is ridiculous. Jason Powell and I have discussed Vince’s short term memory on Dot Net Weekly, but come on. Vince’s display was ridiculous, pathetic, and at times humorous. You wonder sometimes if the guy has an ounce of class in his body. In fact, when asked why he pays for rehabilitation programs for former wrestling employees, he responded with, “Two words: public relations.” It almost makes you wonder if he has the annual Tribute to the Troops because he knows the show will make him a public relations darling.

Twilling is very bothered by the fact that McMahon is refusing to answer questions on his own steroid use and pretending not to know anything about the rampant use of these drugs in wrestling. There are many factors that would make you think whether McMahon was lying or not. First of all, he could have just easily said “No, I didn’t use anabolic steroids” if he knew it was the truth. Second, he becomes overly defensive when addressed with the issue. Third, the way he answered seemed like he was putting on a show, just like in regular wrestling matches.

The Oversight Committee shouldn’t be content with the information they get from McMahon. Wrestling is his game and wrestlers, his people. Of course he would do everything to protect them. He isn’t called “the boss from hell” for nothing
