USADA loves this idea
Uff, no-one will be watching wrestling if they start testing. The one sport where there is no advantage over the other "competitor" if one is taking drugs. In fact I would claim that drug use is needed in order to recover and deal with the injuries from the brutal physical abuse they put their bodies through.
Vince McMahon running the UFC.?? I can already imagine the fighters being introduced with their own theme songs and doing scripted promos before each fight. Wait actually it's not a bad idea. bringing drama in between the fights haha (the fun kind the day male soap opera level drama)

> Could it maybe work the other way, start to make the WWE more real? That would be a tragic mistake for everyone involved. People like being in on the joke when John Cena, a grown man costumed in neon green, runs around the square stage whilst pretending to be invisible. It would ruin the fun if his opponent unceremoniously dropkicked him in the solar plexus.
Professional wrestling makes way more sense when you realize it's not sport, it's modern day Shakespeare: Plays for the layperson, with plenty of dirty humor and crassness.
