Jim Ross Accepts Steroids Usage In Wrestling – Under One Condition

AEW commentator Jim Ross has said that he accepts the use of steroids in wrestling, as long as doctors approve it beforehand.

The use of steroids in wrestling has been a hotly-debated topic for decades, with several now-deceased wrestlers having admitted to using them.

During an episode of his Grilling JR podcast, Ross said he’d only be fine with the use of steroids if they were prescribed by a medical professional:

“When things get negative, you’ve got to address them and take some heed that we got to make some changes. I’m not an advocate of people using steroids if it hurts them.

“If they’re under doctor’s care and they’re paying attention to their health, then I don’t have any issues with it, as long as it’s under doctor’s care. But if you’re going to go outlaw and you’re going to diagnose yourself, and dosages, and supplies, that ain’t good.”

In the mid-1990s, Vince McMahon was charged with supplying steroids to his talent but was found not guilty.
