A 2nd strike for your supposedly top guy also probably ends his "top guy" status. First strike is one thing and everyone makes mistakes, but a 2nd strike combined with being exposed as a liar after such a confident denial? Yeah, not a good outlook.

This would be a 2nd strike sixty day suspension that would cost him the main event of Wrestlemania, on top of Reigns already being one of the most polarizing figures in the business. That's quite the powder keg to unleash. If this gets "resolved" and he's suspended before the 9th of February, he could do the 60 days and still make WrestleMania (although would it be worth the bad PR?). Any time after that, he's out. He could make Wrestlemania if they suspended him now, but missing the Rumble and Elimination Chamber would ensure he's not in the main event, unless they really decide to wait days before the show to decide the #1 Contender, which would be a clusterf*** in itself before the inevitable PR nightmare. |

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn... Imagine the board after they find a legit link between Reigns and this dude. JUST. IMAGINE. Lord, that would probably top the first Wellness Violation thread. Even Young Randy Orton would be like dude you're f***ing up Like I said tho, I can't believe this shit without anything to back it up. If he never been suspended before i'd have more of an eye brow raise because this would be random but he got busted for Adderall (supposedly) and as far as we know he's been clean since In regards to people saying he should volunteer to take a test, nah he has no reason to throw himself out there like that. He already denied the claims which is all he needed to do until further notice |

He was noticeable pudgier after the failed wellness for adderall. Once he came back he still had a little weight but got it back down. He got his body back in order fairly quick but he's been a bit fuller in the face. Not like any huge deal or anything, just a bit less pointed of a jaw. Yea he's def getting that Samoan fat on him Jimmy & Jey had it too but they revamped their bodies up which lead to wrestling shirtless again |

Why would it be second strike? Didn't the Signature Pharmacy people "just" get a regular suspension unrelated to the wellness policy?

No, what he's saying is that it wouldn't count as a wellness strike since he wouldn't have failed a test. It would just be a formal suspension. |

I seem to remember Booker T got a Strike (and was pissed off about it), but Mike Knox didn't. |

If it is this will be their biggest blow up in their face ever. They gave the dude everything and it went to waste Also a side effect of him getting caught would be drug test being given a kick in the ass so if you were able to slip through the cracks before, no more of that |

First strike is one thing and everyone makes mistakes, but a 2nd strike combined with being exposed as a liar after such a confident denial? Yeah, not a good outlook. Orton and Jeff Hardy both got two strikes. Orton's position as a top guy never wavered and they even created a loophole to prevent him from ever getting fired, while they pushed Jeff to the moon after his second strike. I really don't expect Roman's position to ever be derailed by Wellness, short of him actually getting fired over it. |

Is there a shareholder anywhere who can talk to us about "attachment" and clear all this up for us?

So am I alone in hoping that Reigns is innocent, and doesn't want to see him suspended and/or kicked out of the Mania main event?
Workrate and super pushes aside, this situation isn't bad for just him. It's bad for WWE and the business' public perception.

Saying you passed all of your WWE Wellness tests doesn't really say much. They are legitimate tests, but there are ways around them. It also especially sounds worse in a world where USADA testing is well known and tests more frequently and for more substances.

We're just saying he might not be and if he is there's gonna be a problem. For his and his family's sake I hope he's innocent. He doesn't need this. |
