Rumor Killer on WWE Diva Drug Use, Diva Out With RAW Host?

— Jim Ross’ claim that recent WWE RAW host Jeremy Piven scored Diva Kelly Kelly’s phone number backstage appears to be true, as numerous PWInsider correspondents said the Diva and the “Entourage” star were spotted together at Thursday’s New York Jets-Philadelphia Eagles preseason game.

— Internet reports alleging WWE Diva use of the weight loss drug Zylene are greatly blowing the situation out of proportion. A supplement available over the counter, the primary ingredients are resveratrol, green tea extract and Hoodia, all of which are common in many of the bodybuilding industry’s most mainstream and reputable diet and muscle-building products.

The fact that the FDA has yet to approve the drug is also being incorrectly portrayed; while true, virtually all bodybuilding supplements are sold to the public without such approval. Supplements like creatine and nitric oxide (arginine), used universally within the bodybuilding and athletic communities, are also sold without FDA approval.

While the use of such unapproved supplements is always risky, from a health and legal perspective, the use of Zylene is far more socially and medically accepted than the illegal use of prescription dieting drugs like clenbuterol.
