Shawn Daivari (Sheik Abdul Bashir/Mottola) Heavily Criticizes The Waxman Report
¤~Îñ©üßu§~¤
weeks ago indicting TNA wrestlers who reportedly failed steroid drug
tests, wrestler Shawn Daivari (Sheik Abdul Bashir) wrote a blog in
reaction to Waxman's findings. Daivari wrote,
"I don't mind someone being able to approach congress to see if an
issue is able to be investigated. That's the purpose of this country.
What bothers me is for the average person who isn't in the know of
this industry, it paints a bad picture of pro-wrestling whilst leaving
every other form of entertainment to be," Daivari wrote. "Wrestling is
part of the entertainment industry. Like music, movies, TV, sports,
books etc. etc. etc. When ever someone like a Henry Waxman says
there's a problem with drug use in wrestling (he thinks) a more fair
statement would be there is drug use in the entertainment industry.
Whenever the media racks up these "huge" lists of people that have
died in the wrestling industry over the last years, they never compare
it to the number of deaths in music. The number of deaths in
Hollywood. In that vein we are usually the smaller percentile, or at
least in the same ball park."
On what constitutes abuse, Daivari wrote: "There was an
anti-inflamitory prescription medication on the market called Vioxx
about 5 years ago. It was a very effective drug that in some cases had
a side effect of causing heart failure. With tons of studies done, and
the comparison of number of heart failures with use compared to the
number of successfull trials, and the number of heart failure with
abuse compared to the number of successfull trials, the FDA found it
more often then not with use and abuse to cause to much damage to the
human body to make it prescribeable and the drug was eliminated. I
think people are uneducated as to what anabolic steroids are. Anabolic
steroids are synthetic hormones. Birth control is a steroid. Some
antidepressant drugs are steroids. More often then not, again in cases
of USE and not ABUSE they have medical properties that are beneficial
to the person prescribed the drug. That is why a doctor can not per
scribe cocaine, or LSD. Because they have no proven medical value."
On the benefits of Human Growth Hormone (HGH), Daivari wrote, "It
seems like you cannot go a month without hearing a pro athlete, be it
hockey, football, pro-wrestling, etc. going ahead and tearing a muscle
clear of the bone/tendon while they're working. 95% of any orthopedic
surgeons will prescribe Human Growth Hormone (a synthetic hormone i.e.
a steroid) to co-inside with rehabilitation. Human Growth Hormone
helps the body regenerate tissue. It creates more red blood cells.
These are attributes with use that show it's medical value.
Nandrolone-Deconate is another synthetic hormone that doctors like to
prescribe after reattaching torn anatomy. It causes the body to go
into a positive nitrogen balance which allows the body assimilate more
protein, which every one knows, is the building blocks of repairing
damaged tissue. So of these crazy percentages that Mr. Waxman likes to
present to congress, does he take into consideration the number of
"positive" wrestlers that have had reconstructive surgery in he last
3-18 months of testing? The number of legally in the USA, under the
guidelines of the FDA, prescribed synthetic hormones BY MEDICAL
DOCTORS? No. He doesn't. Because as I said earlier he is on a witch
hunt. Am I saying that EVERYONE is innocent, and using drugs within
the guidelines of doctor or FDA approval? No. We know that's typically
not the case. But is there any way that I believe 70+ percent of the
locker room is drug abusing addict? Also no."

Don't listen to this Iranian terrorist. He probably uses those
hormones to create bombs.

Thank you drive through.

It makes me wonder if HHH and Vince were perscrbed HGH or these
hormones after their Quadriceps tears.
Bobybuilder Steve Michalik talked about returning from an injury
really fast on steroids. Of course he also talked about how they
nearly killed him and how detoxing from them basically saved his life
some years later.

Inc, you neglected to link the appropriate site, be it Daivari's or
where you got the story. I'll forgive ya for that, but let's give
Daivari some props here. I can see him going before Congress and
testifying.

Well, except for that last line he is 100% right. People in the
entertainment industry ARE fucked up. That's the dark side of the search
for fame. Difference is, in wrestling the wrestlers themselves are the
product. After decades of pushing a specific look, the consequences are
biting everybody involved in the ass. This isn't a witch hunt like the
Tipper Gore heavy metal debacle. This is actually something actually
damaging and right in everybody's face. This is not only for the good of
the wrestlers but for all the kids who aspire to get in the business
(omg, i actually went "Won't somebody think of the children." Kill me.)
All that said, Daiviari went a long way to build the strawman to
distract from his obvious juicing. And I see that 2 morons bit.
