In an interview with Fox News on 8/23, Mysterio was asked about steroid use in wrestling, including his own. Host Steve Doocy asked point blank if he had ever used steroids, Mysterio said, "No. Never." When Doocy said people looking at him would think that he's probably on steroids, Mysterio responded by saying, "You can look at my body, and in a way, I am the biggest guy, right? No, I'm all dedication to wrestling. I've been doing this for eighteen years now. I've been training since I was eight years old." When asked about his name coming up in an investigation of Dr. Phil Astin, the doctor of the late Chris Benoit, Mysterio said that his only connection to him was getting pain medication, noting he had six knee operations. Mysterio said if they investigated Astin, they would find he only took pain medication.
