You got it!
And yes, Mr. Scicluna passed away this past March.

My buddy went to school with Scicluna's kid.
He said that, one day, he and a friend were acting like assholes and got sent down to the principal’s office.
While they’re waiting outside the door, “Big Mike” walks in wearing a suit and hat.

Being the avid Studio Wrestling fans that they were, my buddy & his friend instantly recognized “the Baron.”
Anyway, Mr. Scicluna walks up to the secretary’s desk, reaches into his pocket, and removes some money, which he places onto the table.
All he said was, “This money is for my son.”
Then, he turned and started walking away.

The secretary calls over, “Sir, who is your son?”
Mikel stops cold, whips around, hit’s a most muscular (in his suit), and loudly bellows - in character, “SCICLUUUUUUUUUUUUUNAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”
Then he turned around and continued walking out.
The secretaries were speechless.
Meanwhile, the two kids were laughing so damn hard, they were crying, while one of them actually fell out of his chair.

That pick was phenomenal. Just goes to show you how big Superstar (or any wrestler for that matter) was. Dwarfing Arnold and benching a legit 6 plates per side at a time when steroids were not suffisticated like today.

Imagine what Graham would have looked like with access to the pharmaceutical stock they have today.
Did he ever discuss his specific steroid useage?
I presume it consisted of primarily D-bol, and maybe test - at least early on.

Superstar had superior genetics in two departments:
1. Building muscle
2. Synthetic hormone response.

Those, combined with his dedication & discipline, put his physique ahead of everyone else at that time.
Even by today’s standards, he was phenomenal!

I never heard him talk about his usage. I imagine he took boatloads of what little was available back then. I never saw his "Tangled Ropes" DVD yet. Maybe he gets into it on there...if Vince allowed him to discuss it.

I know in Bret Hat's book, he discussed how wrestlers would all line up backstage to see the "Doc" Zahorian and get a quick medical check and then walk away with little white boxes of their drugs of choice. Hart said he would get his blood pressure checked and then get his 20 vials of Deca Durablolin and 20 vial of Test Cyponiate and some sleeping pills. Now that's just Brett Hart. Imagine what a Hogan or Warrior white box must have contained.

I wonder how much “business” Hellwig did with Zahorian.
I don’t recall him being indicted or even mentioned in that trial.

Bret admitted to using gear in his early WWF days.
He saw the importance of being “big” and felt the pressure to conform - much like Tom & Davey.
In fact, if you look at that earlier BD/HF match I posted, you’ll see Bret looks noticeably thicker.

Bret claimed that his amounts were miniscule to many of the other guys. And, once he was established, he gradually came off.

Warrior stated in the 1992 steroid trial that he used to get his drugs prescribed from a Doctor in Atlanta.

Pillman rocked. That motercycle accident did him in. His left foot wan pretty much mangled to the point where exxcisive amounts of painkillers were needed just for him to function day to day. I felt bad for the guy. Any of you fine gents watch the Brian Pillman dvd? It came out a while ago bud I never had a chance to buy it.

Someone had sent it to Piper, who put it up on his site.
I don't know for sure if it came from a fan, friend, family member, etc.
The writing in the lower left corner looks like Japanese characters.

Maybe Donkey Kong can decode it.
lol
