Can't post for 20 hours!
I know that people here don't like WWE and they're right but I wanted to tell a cute story about some of my students.

I showed a picture of the 1852 painting "Union" and asked my students who they saw in the picture. One kid said "John Cena" and I said "no you don't, there's no way.... You can't see him" and one girl kinda looked at me. Most other kids were looking at the picture on their desks so I did the waving hand over the face thing and she flipped out and yelled "did you guys see Mr. Grem do the face thing?" Less of a fan thany one Roman Reigns loving student but it was cute.

I was looking through the internet to look at posts about Punk's injury. I saw one hypothesis about Punk on Reddit's SquaredCircle and I didn't think much of it (due to being Reddit), but reading it start to make actual sense.

What if Punk being Straight Edge IS the problem with his injuries?

Punk is 45, which is getting up there in terms of a wrestling career. What if because of his own beliefs and ego, he is not take the right supplements to keep his body in a proper shape for such an age? I mean for gently caress's sake look at Sting and Billy Gunn. They're in their 60's and doing thing normal people in their 60's should never do. They are OBVIOUSLY on the good steroids and supplements, not to mention proper exercise and diet.

Punk looks like he is on a well-maintained diet and regular exercise, but I do wonder that Punk in his Straight Edge mentality considers "drugs". The obvious he doesn't drink or smoke or take things recreationally. What if he abstains from vitamins and supplements to help an aging body?

Punk is in good shape for the average person in their mid-40's, but his beliefs are killing his wrestling career at his age now.

They do when they've spent 25 years wrestling, most of them hurt in one way or another. Wrestling is really, really hard on your body. You don't just do roids and not get bigger and then tear a muscle. The roid tears happen when the muscle becomes too strong for the ligaments. If Punk was roiding enough to tear his tricep, you would be able to tell at a glance.

There's plenty of reasons to hate on Punk, no need to invent new ones.

I'd have to find it again but I read a study in the past few years where doctors examined clean bodybuilders and steroid users. Clean lifters clocked no upper body tendon ruptures while the users had something like a 17% instance of upper body ruptures.

So Punk must be remarkably, impossibly unlucky to blow two upper body tendons while being clean.

I can buy that he blew two tendons clean but it also means he's either sick and doesn't know it or the wear and tear on his body is so bad that he should not be in the ring and he built up that wear and tear in a shorter time than most wrestlers which is very unlucky. That's really it, he's either juiced or is one of the unluckiest people to live.

Punk always looked like an old drug addict, even though I don't think he ever really juiced.

If Punk had been injured bodybuilding, this would be applicable. But he wasn't, he was injured in wrestling, which is a completely different set of circumstances and stresses on the body.

No idea if he's clean or not, just pointing out that this doesn't prove anything either way.

I think we can all agree that the best outcome is punk has been on steroids the whole time and has looked like poo poo for the past 20 some years regardless of the gear

Yeah as funny as it would be if this was clear evidence of punk being gassed up it feels pretty obvious that there’s a difference between the kind of strain you’re putting a body through lifting heavy things up and down vs getting thrown around in a wrestling ring

The study specified the injuries usually didn't occur while lifting weights but usually from lifting mundane objects, falls, or during sports activity.

I'm not aware of many other sports that involve catching other grown mean flying at you at maximum speed and then falling onto concrete, so I'm still gonna say none of those are really comparable to the strains at speeds they'd be seeing in wrestling. But fair enough.

I think it's heartbreaking that Hangman's chops made Punk fear for his life so deeply that he felt forced to break his long held ethical code and get on the gas in an act of self-defense. Sloppy shop.

I doubt he's on the gas. I think his issue is that he's not particularly athletic and has been pushing himself to perform at the level of his often highly-athletic peers for decades. His body isn't suited for the poo poo he's been doing with it and now it's breaking down.
