If they couple Roman's stuff with Jey's stuff not only is it not good for WWE but it isn't a good look for the A'noai's either. However, one is accused while another got caught If it is true for Roman than yea it's not a good look |

Just saying, if I were Roman, I'd be offering to do a test if anyone wanted to keep saying I had anything to do with steroids. I'd be calling somebody's bluff. |

Reigns better pray that they don't find a legit link between the two.

Easiest way to prove him wrong is to take the cup, and announce the results. I have no strong opinion one way or another on the issue of Reigns, but he's not leaving himself a ton of wiggle room here. |

The onus shouldn’t really be on the accused to prove their innocence. The burden of proof should be on the accuser to prove guilt. Just seems unfair otherwise. |

You're not wrong, but this is an instance where, if he's innocent, it's....really f***ing easy to prove. |

Ain’t no way they’re suspending him to miss mania... they will claim he’s innocent to prove their testing isn’t a bullshit scam

You're not wrong, but this is an instance where, if he's innocent, it's....really f***ing easy to prove. Not if there is a paper trail linking that Reigns bought them from him. Pretty sure that's an automatic strike. Regardless if his test comes up negative or he's taking something that doesn't come up on their test. |

Really Reigns shouldn't be doing anything but what he's done so far of denouncing it. There's basically no actual evidence here and he shouldn't have to try and defend himself against essentially nothing.
That said, for his sake I hope he's actually innocent because with his wording being as definitive on the subject as it is if he gets caught he's basically Ken Kennedying himself.

Roman didn't explicitly say in that statement he's clean. He strongly implied it (and I have no reason not to believe him - I also think the burden of proof is on the accuser, not the accused here), but he didn't flat out say 'no, I don't take steroids'. Just thought that was weird.

Just thought that was weird. Yeah, he didn't say he doesn't take them. He said he's passed all the tests since his last failure and that he doesn't know who the guy is. |

Yeah, hopefully he didn't lie, because otherwise he just Kennedy'd himself.

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.

In my mind, it's probably not a great idea to deny knowing someone, even if you're confident there's no link. Mostly because in these kinds of situations, a lot of the time, there tends to be a link and then you're f***ed.

Lord, that would probably top the first Wellness Violation thread. 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. |

That's quite the powder keg to unleash. If this gets proven 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. |
