- Former wrestling star Perry Saturn discussed his battle with pain pills during a recent interview with ClubWWI.com; here’s what he said:
“The people, for the most part, really enjoyed that Moppy stuff. Unfortunately, I was so high all the time, I have such a clouded memory. I don’t remember most of it…All the ideas were the writers. I had no idea. Like I said, I was so stoned all the time, I’m lucky I made it to the shows ,let alone come up with anything creative. WWE has an outstanding creative staff, they come up with stuff. They try to come up with ways to get everybody over and you do or you don’t. I didn’t have anything to do with that creative because at the time, I really hated it too…Now, I get the humor of it. At the time, my main concern was making sure nobody knew I was high.”
Despite it being pre-Wellness Policy, Saturn says the company would have sent him to rehab:
“If they had found out, they would have sent me to rehab. They always, for whatever reason, took care of the guys as best they could. But I didn’t want to quit doing everything. I didn’t want to go to rehab. I wanted to keep doing things the way I was doing them. I wasn’t a big drinker. So when you drink a lot on top of doing drugs, that’s really hard to hide that. I think that’s what helped me keep mine hidden was that I just did the opiates, which was easier for me to hide.”
Saturn also had some choice words for TNA:
“It’s amazing. The ‘Predictability of Stupidity’ is unbelievable. To believe that someone could see what they did (in WCW) and use their own money to give these people another chance to do it again. Tell me TNA is going to be a successful business. That’s hard to believe. Eventually that woman’s going to run out of money and you have to think someone else will give them the same opportunity. Funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time was one of Vince Russo’s Tweets, obviously after they let him go. He said he was sure glad to see the lucrative deal TNA signed with Hulk Hogan especially since Hogan’s only appearances in TNA are during his Rent-a-Center ads. Nobody should ever get paid to stay home.”
