In the wake of the Chris Benoit‘s family tragedy, WWE is offering to pay for 500 former wrestlers to get treatment for alcohol or drug addiction. TMZ reports:
The letter, sent last week from WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, urges performers in need to get help and encourages wrestlers to support one another. “If you do not have a drug and/or alcohol problem, but know you know a former WWE performer who does, we are asking you try to help them by encouraging them to take advantage of this opportunity.”
