But hey, the alcohol thing is actually a pretty smart rule. It enforces responsible behavior as superstars won't wind up missing flights, tapings, cues, spots, etc. because they're hammered. Although I wonder where this would leave Steve Austin if he were still open to random guest appearances (apparently WM 25 was his last). No more beer bashes?

Austin would be fine. There is no way to get drunk on the stuff he drinks on TV. Miller Lite? Water is more potent.

Wow, so do they really believe increasing the fine from $1k to $2.5k is going to make a difference?

Why don't they just fire people for smoking pot? Probably because the talent would revolt if that happened and because some major stars would probably be fired. If that's the case, why fine them at all? Instead WWE decides to go in the dumbest direction possible. Not shocking.

take it back....do it (shakes fist)

anyways......I think increasing the fine for pot is a good idea in theory but won't really help since WWE pays the superstars a lot more then what the fine is and unless they decide to put pot in the list of substances that count as strikes I don't expect to see usage go down

additionally I think them implimenting the alcohol rule is a good idea too as it decreases the odds of someone getting hurt in the ring

For lighting up scented candles?
