The former wife of pro wrestling superstar "Stone Cold" Steve Austin broke what had been a court-imposed silence and charged that "domestic and drug abuse is out of hand in the WWE and something needs to be done about it."

Debra Williams' stunning charge, reported Wednesday by MyFoxColorado.com, comes in the wake of the grisly discovery of the bodies of Chris Benoit and his wife, Nancy-Daus Benoit, and 7-year-old son, Daniel.

I suspect this is going to get really nasty before it’s over.

Ah yes, Debra. Wonder if she’s planning to put that ring back on ebay again?

If the son's mental retardation was genetic then it means that Benoit's wife was having sex with one of the fans.

That's why Benoit probably killed her.

And the pressure from that was as likely to be the cause. Domestic issues aren’t exclusive to the wrestling business.

Here we go. Tragedy = campaign.

Bigger the mess, bigger the campaign.

Hey, ex-Mrs. StoneCold:

“Shut up”, Austin 3:16.

I live around the corner from Big Show- I’ve met him and his wife.

He’s one guy that doesn’t need to juice, due to his disease. I don’t expect him to be a part of this.

No but the travel, the injuries, the stress to perform, the groupies, etc.

Steve Borden (aka, Sting) wrote an auto biography about his failings.

Oh absolutely, it’s a grueling business. But many of us familiar with wrestling know Debra is just taking advantage of an opportunity.

Debra...Funny how someone that was once drawing a paycheck from WWE is now stepping out like this. You’d think she would have said something about drugs after Eddie Guerrero died (yes I know he was clean but he had his problems with drugs that EVERYONE knew about so why didn’t she speak up then hmm?)

nothing like turning a senseless tragedy into a sensational political campaign.

I just got a warning regarding the legality of this article from the Diane Feinstein Committee For Internet Fairness. They claim it is illegal because, although it shows views of a pro-wrestling wife, it shows no views from an anti-wrestling wife./s

Uh huh. Reminds me of Sable who was so vocal & sued over an “unsafe working environment” which must not have bothered her that much since she came back & did the very same things she sued over when nobody else wanted her. But when opportunity knocks....

Next thing you know, she’ll be coming out with a “tell all” book...you’ll be able to find it on the shelf right next to all the Floyd Landis books... ;-)
