WWE Suspends 11 Wrestlers (Pg. 9 Update)

[01010010 01101001 01100011]

For those asking about Snitsky, this is from PWI;

One of those returning names may be Snitsky. For those who have asked, while his name didn't pop up publicly on the Signature online pharmacy list, Stephanie McMahon did tell wrestlers during a talent meeting that there were two suspensions due to drug screening failures. I've confirmed Snitsky was among those brought to WWE's Stamford headquarters that week, so the timeframe for his disappearance last month fits.

So basically the 'E learned a lot from these suspensions and the whole scandal, as I see Kennedy, Umaga and others won't be retur....................


What?

Oh.

Never mind, they learned nothing I guess.

I like how everyone is reporting what I said a month ago when he just disappeared from TV for no reason.

I dont get it, why exactly were they suspended for... I mean, is someone making Mcmahon suspend them or is he actually wanting drug free stars...

Sadly, it's not like they have any other options but to use Orton due to the glut of injuries and other suspensions. Of course, if it were anybody but him they probably would've been fired by now (like Jeff Hardy, fired in '03 for refusing rehab after failing ONE test because he personally didn't think at the time he had a drug problem per-se). Though again the fact they're suspending him (in August? really? I don't remember that...i thought that was around the time he became part of Rated RKO) for something they didn't solve anyway with that suspension is...yeah.

Sometimes I wonder how well the locker room holds up if even half of this is true.

EDIT: Just found it. If Orton was suspended it was the work without pay type since he was feuding with Hogan in August '06

I think Jeff Hardy no-showing and giving half-assed performances when he did show up may have had something to do with his firing as well

True though the drug thing was the catalyst, and I was just speaking from a wellness-related POV

I Get the feeling the only reason the suspensions were given was because their purchises hit the press.
