Wrestling's darkest era took place in locker rooms, hotels & airports as opposed to the ring. These places are where the business hid its biggest secret. From Shawn Michaels taking 35 painkillers a day, to Sandman drinking 48 beers before matches, to Jake Roberts smuggling things through airport security inside his snake bag. Today we highlight the side of pro wrestling the business didn't want fans to see. These wrestlers were broken by an industry that rewarded pain tolerance, punished sobriety, and looked the other way until it was too late. Some made it out. Some didn't. For this video, we'll look at those wrestling nearly destroyed, but thankfully they came out the other side. We'll discuss the historical struggles within professional wrestling for educational and documentary purposes.
