They don't owe us anything, that's between WWE and Jimmy. We don't know what has happened behind the scenes either. Oh yes, I'm sure he got a very stern talking to that'll totally make up for how they're about to give this piece of shit the tag titles as a reward for getting a DUI. Again. They could be requiring him to go to counseling, or rehab after Money In The Bank. They're not obligated to disclose that publically. Did I miss where WWE became part of the criminal justice system? It's really up to the court to decide his punishment.

It's really up to the court to decide his punishment. I mean, they’re not obligated to do so but considering that this was widely reported because Jimmy is a figure of public interest, it would be better to disclose this stuff for your public image. Especially if shareholders were to ask about it in the next meeting. Like, I can’t think of any other media or sports company that wouldn’t at least have a statement out saying “We’re looking into the matter, these people are public figures and role models” etc etc even if they don’t actually do much about it. WWE just ignored the whole thing.

My main concern is that I've seen guys in TNA who had similar problems and were allowed to keep working and I don't think that was a great decision. Sometimes you just need to be given time to focus on yourself and take care of your own problems first. It doesn't even have to be thought of as a punishment. But some guys just need time away to figure their life out.

But some guys just need time away to figure their life out. I think the crazier thing for me personally is that they had an out. Edge beat him up last week, just say “Jimmy had serious injuries sustained and will have to be out indefinitely”. You make Edge in Kayfabe look like a badass because he took out a Roman henchman, you can have Roman cut a promo on him to set something up when he’s back and more importantly, you get him away from TV.

This is a board that has turned into if some wrestler doesn't tip at a restaurant, most will be up in arms until said wrestler posts a picture of giving money to the server and writing a 1,000 word apology. And many take the stance of guilty until proven innocence. In all seriousness, if a wrestler doesn't tip at a restaurant in a society with a tipping culture, they can go to hell and f*** off forever.

At a certain point, you have acknowledge that maybe the wrestling environment isn’t the greatest for him rn. I’m a big believer in rehabilitation over punishment but that also involves understanding what’s actually triggering these events and the behavior that enables it.

Get him help if he's legitimately got a drinking problem. Otherwise fire him. This is the FOURTH TIME he's put other people's lives in danger because he couldn't be bothered to call a goddamn cab. I've actually heard that's it's the 5th time that he's been arrested since he's been in the WWE.

Would it actually surprise anyone, if they added Mysterios vs. Usos for the SD Tag Titles to MITB...and the Usos win? I mean, it wouldn't be the first time. The Usos were scheduled to win the tag titles in big plans for Roman's group months ago so it's still going to happen. Oh, I get that...still think it's a bad idea & a bad look.

He never listened to Fatu Make A Difference. He did however take driving tips from Rikishi doing it for the Rock.

It's sickening that people were trying to blame Naomi to the point where they leaked her address

So WWE is going to do nothing because he is apparently "really important to their ongoing storyline"
Yea this is gonna end in one of two ways or even both with people hurt and or dead.

Can’t let real life implications, a man’s obvious problem and the risk and jeopardization of possible real life victims get in the way of a good story, pal.
