Wrestling Unsafe?

Recently former WWE wrestler CM Punk came out and told his story.
Punk talked about how he had to work with horrible health in WWE. He
talked about wrestling with a staff infection and also being
medically cleared OVER THE PHONE. With these unsafe health practices
it makes many fans wonder if WWE or wrestling in general is really
safe for the wrestlers. We know the old stories of wrestlers
wrestling with concussions, with broken bones, and much more. But now
the WWE claims that there medical practices are much better but are
they really? Also what about wrestlers like Ryback or some of the
divas who shouldn’t be wrestling because they just aren’t ready. The
end up hurting people, and sometimes even ending careers. Punk also
talked about the wellness policy being changed last year from the
“three shrikes you’re out” system and now they have a program
that can help you reduce your strikes.

As wrestling fans we should be concerned about the safety and
health of the wrestlers. We should push for WWE to stick to there
wellness policy and test it on everyone(executives included) and we
should want them to look out for wrestlers with injuries, and
medically clear wrestlers the right way. Also we should want them to
push newer talents.

Now why should we want newer talent? It’s simple. With newer
talent older talents like Orton can take a break from any nagging
injuries that they have and we as fans can get a break from seeing
the same faces over and over again. Now don’t expect Cena to take a
break for a long period of time, he’s the face of WWE, however if
Cena does get a serious injury; even his fans should want him to take
a break so that his injury gets the proper medical treatment that it
needs.

I am not saying that the WWE wellness policy is all bad a lot of
good has come out of it, but it also has many flaws that we as fans
should want fixed. We shouldn’t shrug our shoulders when a wrestler
gets injured and wrestle anyway, we should want the wrestlers
entertain us to get wrestler and healed up if need be.
