WWE Superstar suspended again - firing up next?
The WWE has announced they have suspended William Regal for 60 days following his second violation of the WWE Wellness Program. Regal — in the midst of the biggest push of his WWE days, and possibly his career — initially tested positive earlier this year for various illegal muscle-building entities. As for what prompted the latest suspension, who knows. All Mr. Mal knows it that the entire pro wrestling industry is an absolute joke right now. Liars running drug tests for other liars, all trying to fool each other into thinking they are cleaning up their act. Puh-lease. Where is the industry to go if they truly weed out any and all steroids/human growth hormone? Will people actually watch this wretched product known as the WWE minus the pumped-up physiques? Further, how dumb do you have to be to even think about taking this stuff nowadays, especially given that the WWE apparently is the most-serious it has ever been in trying to root-out these problems? Idiots, the whole lot of them with Regal leading the way. Next offense and it’s the firing squad for King Regal.
Mr. Mal is easily at his lowest point of pro wrestling fandom in decades right now, both for the in-ring garbage, ridiculously-concocted, boring storylines and — to top it off — the underbelly of the industry still refusing to change. Sorry gang, but that’s Mr. Mal’s take. I wish it weren’t so. Oh, for the days or yore. I guess Mr. Mal has officially turned into a grumpy, old-school pro wrestling fan, pining for what will never be again . . .
Can anyone convince me today’s pro wrestling is still worth watching?!?!

I know what’ll convince you pro wrestling doesn’t suck. Watch TNA. I know the story lines are bad and there aren’t many great wrestlers, but they actually try to please the fans and try their hardest in matches. Unlike the WWE.

Hey there, Dori — thanks for the advice. I still wish TNA’d wrestle in a real ring, but maybe Mr. Mal’s in the minority there. To be honest, I haven’t seen TNA in months. I’ll cast an evil eye toward it this week in honor of your suggestion.
Thanks for writing.

If real, old school action is what you want TNA is indeed the ticket. At this low point in time however you begin to wonder how much of a fan you really are. I actually like that ring to tell you the truth. For true change and a return of interesting programming we need less scripting from WWE brass and more improv from the performers who at this point are nothing more than actors. We need managers, a tag team division with real tag teams and the return of Gene Okerlund - like straightmen who add humor and spontaneity to a program. On a broader note, what we really need is the labor movement (a union for you Humanoids) to get its rear in gear and get a foothold in Vince’s company. The monopoly he now enjoys could then be challenged. Even better would be some sort of catastrophy that would force the 61 year old steroid head to fold his Roman - like - Empire.

We need a pro wrestling union if — for nothin’ else — than to get together and BAN that infernal six-sided ring. It’s called a SQUARED circle for a reason. But thanks, guy. Looking forward to your call (ah-ah-ah-ah).
