From another board :

-----

So to sum up the SI list via Meltzer, the 10 appear to break down:

Raw - Orton, Kennedy, Umaga, Regal, Haas.
SD - Chavo, Funaki.
ECW - Morrison.
Injured - Edge, Helms.

Linked to Signature Pharmacy, but apparently no transactions since Feb '06 - Batista, Booker, Santino, Masters, Simon Dean.

And don't forget Rey Mysterio is linked to the Dr. Astin investigation.

Again, these suspensions are only based on information from the State's Attorney in Albany, this has nothing whatsoever to do with WWE's in-house testing. Other than (as has been pointed out) the fact that WWE's testing didn't catch any of them, so what does that say about the testing?

Even 20 minutes notice that a test is coming would allow someone to take a masking agent, and there is also the "I can take as many steroids as Benoit was getting if I have a prescription" loophole.
-----

Someone else made the very good point looking at that list, people in golf are laughing about most of their physiques etc and whats the point of testing. A few of those named above don't exactly have the roid monster "look" so all those who claim that, at some point, virtually everyone in wrestling does it could be valid. The investigators are allegedly also going to be supplying names of people from Baseball, NFL etc etc so this story is going to keep on going!

For me, either test every damn sport out there or just say to hell with it and let everyone do what they like. If they want to "Flo-Jo" and break every record in the book by a mile and then "fall down, go boom" a few years later, let them! Simplistic maybe but the constant drip feed of people failing tests every few months sucks for whoever's sport is under the microscope at that point.
