If Angle's whole situation is any indication, Daniels should not be punished whatsoever in any way, shape, or form. If he is, then NO ONE in charge there deserves to be in charge, and I'd make a strong recommendation for everyone to abandon ship now. If Chris Benoit didn't hang himself, he'd be TNA Champ right now.

OH MA GAWD! IT'S STONE COLD CHRIS DANIELS! HE'S RUNNIN' OVER KURT'S LIMO WITH A MONSTER TRUCK AND HE'S MOTIONING FOR BEER!
Hey, Russo already ripped off the Stone Cold character once before in TNA...

Well, I thought it was funny.
Anyway, they should revive the Beer Drinking Championship and have it be their third tier title. It'd be a more competitive division than the X division at this point.

I admit....I laughed....out loud. That was well played. Nice job. I agree with if Daniels is punished for this then there really are problems with TNA. Not that that would surprise me.

Its all Gregory Helms' fault If you believe PwTorch, that photo was taken the night of the arrest. Not too smart... I don't believe that he'll get any sort of punishment for this. There have been a few DUI's that have gone unpunished by WWE, so I don't see TNA taking a tougher stand.

To let Angle's legal (and possible drug) problems slide, and then to punish Daniels would look really, really bad. This is why everyone was saying that by not punishing Angle they were setting a really dangerous precedent.

Can't imagine why anyone thinks they would punish him, can't really remember a time when a wrestler, or really any celebrity, had their career affected over a DUI arrest with nothing else involved.

Catch-22 for TNA. I feel bad, I really expect more from Daniels. He has a kid, what business does he have drinking and driving?

The bottle involved had a bad attitude and everyone says it was crazy, so I don't blame Daniels one bit.

It stinks that he was arrested but some of the replies in this thread stink even more.

Aww. Who changed the awesome thread title?
It was stupid of Daniels, but it's the sort of stupid that's traditionally gone unpunished in wrestling companies. I personally think a DUI arrest should carry a short suspension, like two weeks or something, just to send a message to the public and the locker room.
But, since they've done nothing about Angle's far worse charges, they can't punish Daniels. Like others have said, that set a bad precedent.

I don't buy it.
Seriously, we all know Daniels is Suicide, now we just have to figure out who is driving Daniels car dressed like Daniels!
PS as with every real life story of a wrestler we need one person to doubt it's validity. I will fill that role.
IT'S ALL A WORK ITS ALL A WORk

Chris is very well respected and liked within the locker room and if he gets a punishment of any kind, there will be a backlash from the roster. Personally they should have some sort of precedent to deal with this issue like say strike 1, warning, strike 2, fine...than so on and so forth, but because they didn't do anything to Angle they really can't do anything to Daniels. Way to push yourself into a corner TNA, very WCWish of you.

Kinda surprised, I dunno maybe he just didn't seem like the type to me that would get arrested.
Interesting to see how they handle this, but I don't think any real punishment will occur out of this though.
