Former ROH and TNA star on his drug problems

Former ROH and TNA star Jimmy Rave (real name James Guffey) is now the director of a mental health and drug addiction treatment facility in Georgia. Rave has come public with his battles over drug addiction speaking with the Road to Mania blog.

“I was a complete drug addict to be honest. I didn’t give a damn about wrestling because I just cared about scoring more pills and numbing myself. Which people probably could notice about what kind of shape I was in and how I looked and even my wrestling. ROH officials saw that and rightfully said hit the road. In turn, I went to rehab, got a job as a director of a Wellness Center, and I now help people realize they throw everything away that they love when they start abusing drugs.”
