From USA Today: The No. 2 wrestling employer, NWA-TNA, is considering mandatory drug testing. In November it began offering medical coverage for injuries inside and outside the ring to its 35 contracted wrestlers — the first time a pro wrestling organization has done so. It is considering medical and dental coverage.
The drug testing isn't anything I deeply care about--but holy cats! Medical and Dental coverage. I have to wonder how many wrestlers (the ones with families, at least) would be willing to take a cut in pay in order to have that benefit. I hope enough so that other promotions, esp. WWE take notice.
