Yes, and considering the fact that weed is illegal.


I think it's funny how some people in here are getting upset that the WWE allows drinking and prescription pain medicine but not weed. I guess that, perhaps, you people have never heard of "the law". Alcohol is legal. Prescription medicine is legal. Marijuana is not.

Want to know why the WWE cracks down on weed, but not the other? Because weed is ILLEGAL, and the others are legal.


Have I made my point yet?

Maybe they could relieve stress by doing something that's NOT illegal.

You're both wrong. WWE performers are above the law, therefore that doesn't matter. v_v

But seriously, I gotta agree with the above points. Like has been said, it's illegal, also dumb. So this policy is alright I guess. They need a prescription from a doctor for the pills anyway, right...

I've been saying, and I'm going to keep saying it...WEED SHOULD COUNT ON THE 3 STRIKES. They're doing something that's completely illegal, and if one of the wrestlers went out, got high, and crashed a car into someone and killed them, people would start pointing fingers at WWE becuase they didn't attempt to stop something that was illegal, and the WWE would have known that their employees were doing something illegal.

Quick question: They 'COULD' get a prescription from the Doc for weed too. Does it then fall under the 'prescriptive pain killer' category or the 'illegal weed' category?

I say yeah weed is illegal but the NEGATIVE EFFECTS of alcohol and pain killers greatly outdo any effect marijuana will ever have on a person so NONEof these things should be allowed in the WWE.

Marijuana has the same effect as alchohol when you're operating a vehicle. When you're sitting by yourself having a beer, it doesn't hurt your body more than getting high does. The only argument that "Legalize It Idiots" have is "oh, but nobody's ever OD'd on weed". There's a reason why weed is illegal, and will continue to be illegal, IT IS DANGEROUS.


And lol at you saying that you could get prescription weed from a doctor if you're in the WWE. If you get prescription weed, it's becuase you're about to die a painful death, and they give it to you so it kinda numbs the pain while you die....well...that's usually the main reason.


Weed is illegal any way you look at it. YOU CAN NOT JUSTIFY A WWE SUPERSTAR SMOKING MARIJUANA.


This post wasn't aimed fully toward you SNACKZ, just everybody in general.

Wasn't trying to justify it Trav - was really intrigued as to the consequences of having medical weed as opposed to just smoking weed for fun. The fact of the matter is prescription weed is not only for extreme cases of pain. Doctors prescribe weed to patients for various reasons. Your statement about the effect of alcohol being the same as weed is not true - alcohol causes liver damage among other internal complications where smoking weed has NEVER been shown to have any negative PHYSICAL effects on anyone. Sure you have the mental slowness and the munchies but other than that how can it be equal to scripts or alcohol. I am not an advocate of marijuana use by any means but the arguments stating that the EFFECTS of weed are the same as drinking or popping pills is just not true. The only reason that weed should NOT be allowed to be used in any sport is because it IS ILLEGAL. Remember that most pain killers that are prescribed to athletes contain some form of cocaine but are considered safe because its not what the FDA consider an active ingredient. These ingredients are what cause the medication to become addictive and make it where taking 50 pills does nothing to kill the pain but i digress, I think we are on the same page at least when we say that all of these things (pills, alcohol abuse and weed) should all be banned from the E.

well my stress reliever is Illegal. :sofa: :

What if someone gets high and goes in public, and does something to hurt themselves or someone else? Then the blame would be right back on the WWE.

Doing it whilt UTI is all good thoug, yeah?

The problem here isn't WWE, it's the laws....

Marijuana is less dangerous than any recreational substance you care to mention (not to mention a lot of prescribed ones), but it IS illegal.

Marijuana has the same effect as alchohol when you're operating a vehicle. When you're sitting by yourself having a beer, it doesn't hurt your body more than getting high does. The only argument that "Legalize It Idiots" have is "oh, but nobody's ever OD'd on weed". There's a reason why weed is illegal, and will continue to be illegal, IT IS DANGEROUS.

Jeeeeezus, you're government have YOU well 'trained', don't they!

Where do I start with this brainwashed ignorance....?

Marijuana does NOT have the same effect on you as alcohol... Regardless of whether you are driving or doing anything else.

There are loads of arguments that place weed > alcohol... How about the amount of alcohol related deaths & violence for starters?

As for passive weed smoking.... You conveniently neglect to consider the issue of tobacco being legal plus, considering weed smoking is not legal there would have been no conclusive studies to back up your bullshit p.o.v. with regards to smoking PURE weed (with no tobacco).

That last part about "only if you're about to die" is just utter uninformed crap!


It's peeps like you that are why the drugs laws around the world are so ill-informed, fucked up and DANGEROUS.... Even worse though is that you are so fucking self assured about it all; enough to label peeps "legalise weed idiots"... You ignorant "ban weed" fuckwit!










@ Kaedon: To a degree, that may be true but PAIN KILLERS aren't recreational.... Maybe some of the guys prefer the mild pain relief you can get from weed?

What are these negative effects of alcohol you refer to? The only negative effects come from when people ABUSE alcohol, not when they drink it. There's a major difference.

However, marijuana is illegal in ANY amount. Thus, forbidding something of a legal nature with no real health consequence when taken appropriately is silly.

 

[Airfixx]

The only negative effect of marijuana "unless abused" is getting arrested.

Unless, of course, you count our oh-so-'for the people' governments not earning any tax money.

 

[Slyfox696]

The only negative effect of marijuana "unless abused" is getting arrested.

Which makes it reasonable to outlaw marijuana in your drug policy, especially since the drug policy is in place merely to avoid being taken over by the government.

I don't think the WWE really gives a damn what their workers do, as long as they are able to do their jobs. However, if they allow illegal use of drugs to run rampant through their company, then they could face government consequences. And that's why the policy is as it is.

 

[Airfixx]

^^^I agree - I'm not debating the WWE's policy - They're simply protecting the company.

 

[monkeystyle]

For what it's worth this is only temporary anyway, just like anytime they crack down on steroid use. Give it six months to a year and nobody will be caring again.

 

[CT Styles]

I don't get what all the arguments are over. It's against the LAW. It's not some kayfabe shit where Vince doesn't like it but you do it anyway. You get caught with it; arrested. Simple. I don't get why guys, who have millions of people's dream job, waste the opportunity like this.

THE Brian Kendrick, you're a dropkick.

Tough shit, they shouldnt be in the business if they cant hang with the pain. And if they just want to get high, they REALLY shouldnt be in the business. This whole report just REEKs of lack of personal responsibility. "Yeah, I got hooked on alcohol because they said I cant use weed" its complete bullshit.

 

[Jaybsty]

Weed does have a negative effect. That's bullshit. I smoked the shit for 7 years and it has a big effect on your motivation in life. Giving up weed was the best thing i ever did with my life.
