Discussing the Steroids Documentary
In "Bigger, Stronger, Faster," filmmaker Chris Bell takes a closer look at steroid use in America. His subjects? His two brothers, both of whom idolized guys like Hulk Hogan and Sylvester Stallone as kids and, as adults, became part of the steroid subculture.
Bell was online Tuesday, April 29 at 11:30 a.m. ET to discuss the film and his observations about steroid use.
"Bigger, Stronger, Faster," which screened earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival, opens in New York and L.A. on May 30, and in Washington D.C. and other select cities on June 6.

Kudos to Triple H & Randy Orton
From Bill Apter of 1wrestling.com:
I have to hand it to Triple H and Randy Orton. The two of them continue to expertly handle this feud that is reminiscent of a good-old-fashioned wrestling storyline.
From the opening promo--that was so very intense--to the hold-for-hold and brawling in the match, Triple H and Orton showed that the WWE does indeed still know how to showcase a pro wrestling match in the proper manner.
Hunter mentioned in the latest Flex Magazine
WWE Champion Triple H is mentioned in the latest issue of FLEX magazine. Triple H is touted as being the first non-competitive bodybuilder to make the cover in the FLEX's 25 year history.

His hand is where?
Hulk Hogan puts oil on his daughter at the pool. I think the picture speaks for itself. Disgusting.

Blackpool Blackout
Seething from Mr. Kennedy's coronation crash earlier, a besmirched William Regal pulled the plug on Raw tonight. Before the conclusion of new WWE Champion Triple H's title bout with Randy Orton, the Blackpool, Englishman made Raw go black.
Fan report from prowrestling.net:
After the long crossface spot which was the last thing seen on TV, both Randy Orton and Triple H got a few more moves in before William Regal came down the ramp and told the referee, very calmly, to ring the bell. The crowd hated him, and he explained that since they were disrespectful to him during his coronation ceremony, they did not deserve to see the conclusion of this match—almost the same wording as on TV.
The referee reluctantly signaled to ring the bell and the timekeeper did. Orton made his way up the ramp looking angry at Regal, and HHH ran up behind him and gave him a double axehandle. They moved back to the ring with the ref trying to keep them apart, insisting the match was over. Triple H hit the Pedigree on Orton, posed for awhile, and walked down the ramp to the back with the WWE Championship belt, which did not change hands.
