Two More WWE Wrestlers Suspended

Posted Nov 3rd 2007 2:10PM by TMZ Staff

Chris Masters, DH SmithDH Smith and Chris Masters were both suspended by the WWE on Friday for violating the league's Substance Abuse and Drug Testing Policy.

Masters received a 60-day suspension because it was his second violation, while Smith received only 30 days for his first violation. Smith is the nephew of wrestling legend Bret "Hitman" Hart. The WWE wouldn't say what they tested positive for.

The WWE suspended 10 performers back in August, but as part of a new policy, this is the first time they have released the names of those suspended. WWE spokesman Gary Davis said, "WWE is very serious about eradicating the use of steroids and the abuse of prescription drugs, and we hope by making the names of our performers public it that will be a further deterrent to the other performers."

6. I am wondering if the wrestlers are forced to take these steriods by Vince McButt. There are not many less than beffed up bodys in the WWE. I beleive McButt is judging them by body mass only and not talent. And over 30 have died in the last 10 years at aa very early age. Who is the culprit there. McButt?

10. These 2 young athletes are being used as a smoke screen set up by the WWE....They are essentially nobody's that only real wrestling fans know, so they are said to have tested positive, maybe they did, maybe they didnt, and then it shows the government that the federation is "trying to clean up the sport", but what is really goin on is that the top guys that they know are on "stuff" and are the ones bringing in the ratings and money are getting a pass on the testing so that is wont negatively impact the profits being made for WWE.....really come on think about it..........its just another act created by a powerful money hungry organization to protect their money making athlete's and these samller named guys are just being used as pawns, but they im sure are still getting paid nicely.

Performance enhancing substances have been used to decades and will continue to be used for decades because its human nature to always wanna perform better and recover faster than the next the guy. there is so much more to go into that the general public doesnt know about these things, but only believe what is written in the media as its the truth written in stone. Wake up people there is worse things going on in the world than grown adults using testosterone to get bigger stonger and recover better and essentially become more "manly"...........Get over it!!!! BRing our Troops Home and stop the abuse of prescription drugs before worrying about people enhancing thier performance.

11. Smith may be the nephew of Brett Hart, but he's the SON of Davey Boy Smith of the British Bulldogs, who died at 39. sad, very very sad.

13. 30 and 60 days. They got a vacation, not a suspension.

14. Did everyone forgot that wrestling is staged? Why would any wrestler use drugs to boost their performance when they already knew who will win before the match? Stupid publicity stun.

15. Bottom line, WHO CARES! Since when did TMZ become so concerned with the wellbeing of wrestlers? Shouldn't you be out seeing if Britney farted today, now thats news. Remember kids steroids kill you and your dreams, I mean look at Schwarzennager or guys in the NFL, they are living in the streets off handouts, right TMZ?
