Vince McMahon's personal doctor being the super jacked pro-steroids doctor from "Bigger, Stronger, Faster" feels like it should have been easier to see coming.

Dr. Carlon Colker MD, Vince McMahon's personal physician, was asked about Chris Benoit during a 2007 interview on Bloomberg TV's "Night Talk." He completely ignored the part about CTE/brain damage to focus on the steroid questions, delineating roid rage from outright psychosis.

There are so many layers to Dr. Carlon Colker, Vince McMahon's personal physician. Like his 1999 book "Sex Pills A to Z: From Androstenedione to Zinc, What Works and What Doesn't."

Dr. Carlon Colker MD, Vince McMahon's personal physician: "I have a unique practice in the sense that I consider every one of my patients to be, at the very least, friends, some better than others. They're family." web.archive.org/web/2022093006…

This is the Phil Mushnick article the Mr McMahon Netflix doc keeps showing but dances around the contents of. The one where Vince admits to firing Mel Phillips in 1988 for being a pedophile, then immediately rehiring him w/ the caveat he'd stay away from kids. Which he didn't.

I have a detailed story on this dropping shortly at @rollingstone, including some exclusive quotes.

ICYMI a month ago:

A new lawsuit has been filed today by former WWF ring boys against WWE, TKO, Vince McMahon, and Linda McMahon. Press release from attorneys for the plaintiffs: BALTIMORE, October 23, 2024—DiCello Levitt and Murphy, Falcon & Murphy filed a major lawsuit today against World

New from me at @rollingstone: Five 1980s "ring boys" have sued WWE/TKO + Vince & Linda McMahon for negligence, alleging the defendants were aware ring announcer/ring crew boss Mel Phillips was a pedophile & they could have stopped his sexual abuse of them. rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

Five men who had worked as “ring boys” for World Wrestling Entertainment as teenagers in the 1980s filed a lawsuit alleging that they were groomed and sexually abused by ring crew boss and ring announcer Mel Phillips on the company’s watch. EXCLUSIVE: rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

The suit paints a picture of Phillips as someone to whom WWE gave unfettered access to kids and the means to abuse them, such as private locker rooms. More: rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

“Thanks to the extraordinary courage of our clients, we now have the opportunity to hold accountable the WWE and its leaders… Vince and Linda McMahon, who enabled the rampant abuse of these young boys,” attorney Greg Gutzler told Rolling Stone. 🔗 rollingstone.com/culture/cultur…

The man who came with shiny belts.

BTW, according to the May 22, 1997 issue of the Nashua Telegraph, after his ousting from WWE, Mel Phillips ran an indie promotion, World Association Wrestling. Which ran shows at middle schools. I've only ever seen results for one show (not this one), which ran in the Observer.

On a hunch, I checked the Matt Riddle divorce docket. Today's drama (stealing $2K) makes more sense knowing that as of 11/18, he's months behind on child support/alimony ($28,789.73) and his ex wants him held in contempt again. (He already was last year.) documentcloud.org/documents/2546…

New from me at Babyface v. Heel: You REALLY want to read this letter Larry Matysik wrote to Stanley Weston 41 years ago. An amazing crash course in promoting pro wrestling/producing TV that's among the most informative things I've ever read Re: the business. babyfacevheel.substack.com/p/read-this-le…

New from me in Aaron Rupar's Public Notice newsletter: How Linda McMahon's handling of WWE's "ring boy" child sexual abuse scandal should DQ her from a cabinet appointment in any sane world, esp. education secretary. It's easily the scandal she's closest to. publicnotice.co/p/linda-mcmaho…

Here's the full video of Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) completely bungling her "question" for Linda McMahon about the ring boys child sexual abuse lawsuit and McMahon's response.

Chasyn Rance was arrested today for violating terms of his sex offender registration. Specifically, the Orange County Jail says he failed tor report changes in vehicle ownership, failed to report an “internet ID, web page, or app name” 2x, & provided false registration info 3x.
