Lead story on Atlanta news tonight could be major embarrassment to WWE and drug policy

Fox 5 in Atlanta tonight had as one of its lead stories, an item about a man who moved into a home he had just purchased from a WWE wrestler (whose name was not identified in the story).

He found who shoe boxes filled with steroids and Growth Hormone in a crawl space in the wall along with a copy of the wrestlers current contract and a memo regarding changes in te dress code.

They announced they weren't releasing the name of the wrestler who just moved until they spoke with him first.

Bottles Labeled as HGH Found in Locust Grove Home

Reported by Art Franklin

HENRY COUNTY, Ga. (FOX 5) -- Henry County Police are investigating what a Locust Grove man says he found inside his home.

He turned over to police several bottles that were labeled as containing human growth hormones.

The man also gave police numerous syringes and other materials that investigators say could belong to a W.W.E. wrestler.

"I had never looked in here and so she was gonna put her stuff in here and just looked back in here and the boxes were just sitting there," said the homeowner.

The Locust Grove man showed FOX 5 News where his daughter stumbled upon the disturbing find in the attic of their home.

"It was actually pushed over closer to this wall," said the homeowner as he pointed to a nearby wall.

The homeowner was referring to two shoe boxes that contained several small bottles labeled as testosterone, neomasteron -- which is also an anabolic steroid -- some bottles with no markings at all and there were numerous unopened syringes.

Asked what his thoughts were upon discovering the drugs, the homeowner said "well being the fact that I have children I was horrified because my kids actually play up in that room and so the first thing I thought is what if there were to open that and they would have gotten a hold of the stuff and the syringes."

The shoeboxes also contained personal documents with the name of a man who used to live in the house.

Among those documents was a contract from the W.W.E. and a memorandum to W.W.E. superstars in 2004 about the new dress code.

Henry County Police have asked FOX 5 News not to name that wrestler at this time because they want to talk with him first.

Futhermore, no charges have been filed.

Police are still investigating what the substance was in those bottles.

While it is not illegal for W.W.E. wrestlers to take steroids the W.W.E. Director of Publicity Kevin Hennesy told FOX 5 News "wrestlers can only be prescribed steroids by a physician which is rare and only for a specific medical condition and it is usually taken orally."

Hennesy added, "If a wrestler is injecting steroids for performance enhancement purposes that would be a matter for local law enforcement."

Investigators say they believe the wrestler is staying with relatives in another state.

Police want to question him and test the bottles of substances that were found in the Locust Grove home.

Don't a lot of wrestlers live in Atlanta because it is a major airport hub?

I would asume many still live there after their wcw days also

Afterlife 04-07-2008 12:01 PM

It says "former" residence, tho. Meaning, they don't live there.

I think that's because someone bought the house and then found steroids in it. ;)

Afterlife 04-07-2008 12:19 PM

I understand that, goober. Guys were asking who still lives in Atlanta. I was pointing out that it doesn't matter.

Jeritron 04-07-2008 12:33 PM

Well it's recent, so it would include people who have lived in Atlanta in the past few months or year. Who the fuck nows. All we know is they were part of WWE in 2004, lived in Atlanta and just moved.
They say it could be past or present WWE talent.

How bout Goldberg?

Jeritron 04-07-2008 12:36 PM

If it weren't for the fact that "the police want to talk to this person" I would say the guy just moved into Benoit's old house. Wouldn't that be convenient for the media to ressurect that whole debacle

Jeritron 04-07-2008 12:37 PM

also, lol at the dress code memo. I remember reading about that back then

I was thinking that, myself.

LOL yeah. Which explains how almost a fifth of the roster was busted in the signature pharmacy scandal, right?

(Well, the number, which included a couple of people no longer o nthe roster, was somewhere approaching a fifth of the size of the WWE's active roster of non-Dvia wrestlers).

PS. Do they really need to "resurrect" the whole debacle? I mean, I know people are still pissed that the company looked bad, but let's face it, it ain't because of the media...It's because it's a company run by carnie scum employing drug addicts, murderers, wife beaters, and crazy fucks.

Say what you will about Jeff Hardy, Chris Benoit, and Steve Austin. But for the love of GOD leave Terry Funk out of it!

Dennis Stamp should get a push now

It's CM Punk.

Xero 04-07-2008 05:29 PM

Well, he's going to be gone.

Heros Welcome 04-07-2008 05:33 PM

So STEVIE can get his win back!

RGWhat316 04-07-2008 08:52 PM

LOL, this seemed big, but since it's Knox, this kind of fell flat. The guy basically just got back on tv, and just that quick, he'll be gone.

It would be awesome if they pumped in C.M. Punk chants during the court hearing though.

XL 04-07-2008 09:46 PM

Knox was under contract in 2004!?

No! Atlanta is more than just a Delta hub. It's a vibrant metropolis, the equal of Paris or New York.
Look at these fabulous sights. Turner Field, the Coca-Cola bottling plant, the, uh, the airport.

But how can a city with such a fabulous airport wind up in the bottom of the ocean?

Ah, now that's a story that can only rightly be told in a Chamber of Commerce video narrated by folk-rock trubadour Donovan.

Afterlife 04-07-2008 11:50 PM

Being that it's Mike Knox, this may be the first Steroid Scare that nobody gives a shit about. IN fact, the media might noty say his name, presuming that "A WWE Superstar" sounds more important than "WWE's Mike Knox".

:rofl: I can see it now!

News Guy: WWE's Mike Knox sold a house full of steroids. WWE has a wellness program to prevent the use of these drugs. And now to Ollie Williams for our Black-u-Weather forcast. Ollie?

Ollie: IT'S GONNA RAIN!

News Guy: Thanks Ollie.

Afterlife 04-08-2008 07:34 AM

News Caster: A professional athlete might be on steroids. In actual news...
