In an article by Mike Mooneyham for The Post and Courier, Mr. Kennedy says the following about drugs in WWE:

"Change is always good in any business. This company has changed a lot since I got here. Things are a lot different in the locker room. The atmosphere is a lot different. It's much different than it was 20 years ago."

Kennedy also doesn't condone drug use, but thinks it's acceptable in moderation:

"I know a lot of people don't want to hear this and it's not the most popular answer with everybody, but a lot of the guys who have passed away come from that era when this business was a rock-star atmosphere. These guys lived like rock stars and they partied like rock stars. They did all the drugs. I'm not condoning drug use - anything in moderation is OK - but these guys went to the absolute extremes.

It's no wonder when you mix steroids with recreational drugs and alcohol ... the combination of those three is a deadly cocktail. They're experiencing heart problems and all kinds of other stuff. A lot of those guys are flat broke because of it."
