The Life
Over the last decade, a host of wrestlers have died before age 45, some from injuries sustained in the ring, others from drug overdoses and others from complications brought on by years of steroid and other drug use. Following the recent suicide of professional wrestler Chris Benoit, Real Sports revisits this disturbing trend. Often, young athletes lured to the industry by the promise of fame and fortune discover a truly lonely existence: On the road for as many as 300 days a year, with no job security, and performing in debilitating pain, they can spiral into depression and drugs. With some in the business saying the industry is to blame, correspondent Armen Keteyian examines why the problem persists and what is being done to remedy it.
