Steroids


Any mention of PEDs which is rampant among the "sport". And there is yet another generation going into pro wrestling? Most are totally effed up and its a miracle that these events don't lead to multiple family murders. Chris Benoit anyone? Wonder if any of the actors imbibed to prepare for the roles. Zac Efron is now a monstrosity. Doesn't look natural to me. It's crazy.

Efron doesn't look natural because he's definitely not. That much is obvious. He is stupidly jacked in this film.

As for any mention of steroids, not really, but there is one close-up where we see one of the brothers injecting himself.

I believe it’s common knowledge that anyone involved in professionally wrestling is using an excessive amount of PEDs, and I’m glad they didn’t go overboard on showcasing its use, as the one shot of the needle going into the thigh was more than enough to get the point across.
The Iron Claw is telling a story, and that story is NOT about PED use.

Steroids was primarily only used in the WWF

Zac Efron must be a method actor then, as he was very clearly on the juice in this movie.
