The Rock Fights Drug Usage Within Industry!!!

Wrestling star-turned-movie action man The Rock has called on the fighting world to step up drug education program - so tragedies like Chris Benoit's death can be avoided.

The Scorpion King star was devastated when fellow former wrestler Benoit shot himself after killing his wife and son in June (07), while high on a cocktail of drugs. And he's keen for the wrestling world's powers to clean up the sport, adopting a no-tolerance policy towards drugs, and creating a new system to educate up-and-coming fighters.

The Rock - real name Dwayne Johnson - tells WENN, "First and foremost, what I think has to happen is there should be an aggressive educational process put in place.

"Even though these guys are grown men and they are responsible for everything they do, they clearly aren't armed with the knowledge they need to understand - just how dangerous these drugs are. "Not only are they illegal drugs but when you mix illegal drugs with that lifestyle, it's a recipe for disaster. "I know that governing bodies are working towards a zero tolerance policy. That is so important. It starts with the parents and the coaches."
