The History of Substance Abuse in Pro Wrestling

The venerable promoter Bill Behrens, (who has worked for both WWE and TNA Wrestling and currently promotes NWA Anarchy) shares the history of substance abuse in professional wrestling from the 1960’s until today. According to Behrens, it started with beer for long road trips in the 1960’s, evolved to cocaine in the 1980’s, and graduated to pain pills and alchohol.
