Perry Saturn Says Drug Benders With Raven Got So Extreme They Should Have Died

Perry Saturn isn’t sugarcoating anything from his wild WCW run. In an admission during his appearance on the Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling, the former ECW and WCW star pulled the curtain back on the extreme lifestyle he shared with Raven during their time in The Flock — and the numbers are wild AF.

According to Saturn, he and Raven had a drug routine so dangerous it bordered on suicidal. They weren’t just taking a few pills on the road — they were loading up their bodies with anything they could get their hands on.

“On an average day, I was probably taking 50 pain pills, 20 muscle relaxers, and if we were out partying, 20, 25 tabs of ecstasy,” Saturn confessed.

Even more shocking was how reckless they were with combinations — turning their drug use into a game of roulette.

“Me and Scotty [Raven] used to take a pill bottle, put ecstasy, Vicodin, Xanax, muscle relaxers, shake it up, and we’d both swallow a bunch of pills and just wait to see what kind of high we got.”

But Saturn believes there’s one reason why they made it out alive while others didn’t. He made it clear that despite their habits, they never touched anything before a match. Respecting their opponents in the ring came first.

“There’s no way I should’ve been okay, but I always was. And Scotty always was too. I honestly believe the only reason we didn’t die is because neither one of us drank alcohol.”

“We never did anything before matches. Never. Because somebody’s trusting you with their body. You don’t go out there messed up and hurt someone. Everything was always after the show.”

Saturn’s honesty sheds brutal light on the darker side of the wrestling business during WCW’s hottest years. While the fans saw chaos in the ring, what happened after the bell was even more intense — and far more dangerous. Perry Saturn is one of the lucky few who made it out alive.
