 Nutrabolics is a good company and they make excellent protein powder...HOWEVER

 When are supplement companies going to get this formula down? 'Pro Rassilin' fans DO NOT TRAIN nor DO THEY CARE ABOUT QUALITY NUTRITION OR THEIR PHYSIQUES!

 Why do you think B$N dropped 'HHH'? There is no return for their dollars spent on sponsoring them.

 Okay...WWE fans? Pro Wrestling fans? 95% of them NEVER EVER train or even have a gym membership. Just because Batista has a 'Nutrabolics' t-shirt on during an interview in the ring or is seen in the locker room with an Isobolic jug in his 'locker' doesn't mean jak shit!

 Pro Wrestling fans are more interested in beer, cigarettes, chewing tobacco and fast food.

 All the friends I have who are DIE HARD Pro Wrestling fans? As I think hard about it...yep, the conclusion is the same. Neither one of them train, ever has trained, ever has claimed to train, smoke a pack a day and drink Bud Lite 4 days a week and dip on Skoal.

 Dumb move on their part. Great for Dave, though.

 Thanks!


 It's true though. In the UFC/MMA world...the formula is BETTER. Most of the fans, not all...but alot more than Pro Wrestling fans, actually participate in what they are cheering on the television set on Monday nights.

 Most MMA fans I know of? Most of them train, and try to keep fit and most of them 'roll' and participate in grappling, kickboxing etc...

 I can fathom how a SUPPLEMENT company will sponsor a bigtime UFC guy.

 What I cannot fathom is why a company would impulsively sponsor for lots of $$$ a Pro Wrestler. He mayhave muscle...his physique is seen by lots of people on cable but it doesnt change the fact that NOT ONE Pro Wrestling fan is going to run out and buy Nutrabolic supplements. If any very very few but nowhere near enough to get their monies worth.

why would wrestling fans train? it's not like other sports where you can feasibly go out and have a pick-up game of your own. we all know it's pure fakery, so going into the gym to "train like the pros" is stupid. with MMA you can say "well Liddel uses xyience and he's a badass" but it's not like you can say "hey, HHH takes BSN and he's the champion!" without sounding retarded.

I know what you're saying, but face it.. 1) these guys both have remarkable physiques (for wrestlers) and 2) they're watched every week by millions upon millions of people around the world, thus they can sell the product, unlike some relatively obscure pro bb'er that no one's ever heard of outside of the bb community. I understand the supplement companies move completely and would do the same thing in their shoes, you're there to sell a product and make money not endorse 'pro bodybuilders'.
