5 Superstars whom WWE secretly helped with rehabilitation
The WWE is undoubtedly one of the biggest, most loved franchises in the world, with millions of fans tuning in religiously everyday to watch their favourite stars lock horns. The wonderful thing about the franchise is that it’s sometimes so authentic that one forgets that the magnificent events happening are nothing but a well written script.However, we mustn’t forget that the wrestlers we look up to like goods are also human beings like us off the camera, and even they are vulnerable to the miseries of life. The common way many superstars deal with these miseries is through prescription drugs which provide just temporary relief before becoming an addiction.Getting out of an addiction isn’t easy, but anything is possible with a little help from ones friends, the WWE being the pal in need in the case of these wrestlers. With that in mind let’s take a look at 5 superstars whom WWE helped with healthcare without public knowledge.
#1 Scott Hall
Hall is a WWE legend who’s won some of the franchise’s most prestigious titles as well as being known as one of the founding members of NWO, all this has got him an induction into the WWE Hall of Fame. Unfortunately, something that Hall is also famous for is his long history of alcohol and drug addiction.
His addiction has led to multiple run ins with the law dating back to 1983 when he was charged with second degree murder after shooting a man in self defence, and hasn’t been able to fully stay out of trouble ever since. Hall’s misery reached its peak in 2010 when he was charged with disorderly conduct for resisting arrest, which led to his firing from TNA.
After the incident he checked into a rehab facility, with his tab being picked up by the WWE, but his battle with alcoholism continues to this day.
