Did The Rock recieve steroids?

According to the U.S. Attorney's office, a recently busted St. Louis drug operation that distributed illegal Internet drugs called Specialty Distribution Systems Inc. sent HGH to an "entertainer/athlete" who happens to be 6-foot-5 and 276 pounds, reports The New York Daily News. The New York Daily News is also reporting that HGH was sent to a "well-known" athlete in Massachusetts. Prosecutors simply left things at that and did not specifically identify whoever those two individuals may be. Here is the excerpt from the article regarding these two individuals:

"But it did provide HGH for such uses, according to the U.S. Attorney's office. Prosecutors did not identify any customers, other than to say that one athlete was "well-known" in Massachusetts, and that one "entertainer/athlete" who received it was 6-foot-5 and 276 pounds. It was not clear whether the two descriptions were of the same person."

It's interesting to note that they specifically said an "athlete" and an "entertainer/athlete" received HGH. So well, there's reason to believe that the "entertainer/athlete" is or was a professional wrestler, especially considering that the individual in question is 6-foot-5 and 276 pounds.

This is pure speculation, but going by the description of the 6-foot-5 and 276 pound "entertainer/athlete", the closest match that I can come up with is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. The Rock's WWE Alumni page has him listed at 6-foot-5 and 260 pounds. However, during his prime in WWE, he was generally billed as being 6-foot-5 and 275 pounds. A number of bios on the internet have him listed at 6-foot-5 and 275 pounds. An old wrestling article on Time.com has him listed at 275 pounds. The Rock could very well be innocent in all this, but he appears to be the closest match to fitting the "entertainer/athlete" description.
