5. Brock Lesnar - Steroid Possession And Trafficking

Lesnarmug1 It's January 2001. You're a 6'4" 300 pound Olympic-style wrestler making the transition to pro wrestler in Ohio Valley Wrestling, then WWE's developmental territory.

The most embarrassing thing about this arrest? The fact that the pills were misidentified and, and were actually considered "vitamins" or "growth hormones." At this point, one must think just how many times the cops in Louisville watch Ohio Valley Wrestling, note the absurdly muscled men on their broadcasts, and then possibly make a hit-list of wrestlers to suspect are trafficking steroids? If there were ever a case of a pro wrestler likely getting profiled for being a pro wrestler, it's this arrest. What in the name of Hulk Hogan is going on in the Ohio Valley?
