Get him help if he's legitimately got a drinking problem. Otherwise fire him. This is the FIFTH TIME he's put other people's lives in danger because he couldn't be bothered to call a goddamn cab. Yeah, it’s obvious dude needs some kind of help. Don’t really know what to say at this point. Addiction is a monster. Makes you act outta pocket in ways you didn’t even think was possible. Doesn’t at all justify his actions, of course.

I hope he's OK. This is a pattern and while I'm not going to outright say the dude has a drinking problem because we don't know him outside of wrestling, there's seemingly a trend here. I hope he's OK and if he needs help that he gets it. I think a big problem is that he isn't held responsible for his actions. WWE will put out some half baked PR response, he'll pay a fee to downgrade his charge, and we'll be back to the norm again. I was about to say that I thought Jey got suspended when it happened to him a couple of years ago but you’re right, that didn’t happen. He just wasn’t on TV for a bit.

Do they not have Uber, Lyft, or Taxi’s wherever this guy lives? Good lord, what an asshole for continuing to endanger other people like this That's what gets me...the guy is a heavily featured performer in the largest professional wrestling company in the world. He clearly has the resources to get rides places. But this is the fifth f****** time he's gotten a DUI. That goes beyond merely having a drinking problem, and into the realm of willful and gross negligence.
I sincerely hope WWE actually takes this seriously, and doesn't just sweep it under the rug because he's a feature performer and part of the Rock's extended family. I’m getting so much unfortunate Déjà vu from past threads here.

And, to be blunt, this stuff being allowed to slide actually makes WWE’s ultra-tight leash on their talent even worse.
So, my Twitch money is f***ed up but dude’s can get DUIs and sexual assault cases and all this other SHIT. And WWE goes 🤷🏻♂️ “Can’t control our talent”
This business never left the circus 🤡

HEY WWE!
ONE OF YOUR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS IS EXHIBITING LIFE THREATENING BEHAVIOR AND IT IS BEING PUBLICIZED! MIGHT WANT TO ACTUALLY GIVE A Fxxx ABOUT IT THIS TIME!

Tribal Chief going to beat the f*** outta him. I mean, he isn’t exactly DUI free himself so… Reigns was arrested in 2010 for being drunk in public prior to signing his WWE contract, not DUI, and it appears to be the only time it happened. Seems to be more of a trend with his cousins.

Yeah, I didn't know that either until looking it up just now so I hope I didn't come across too snarky in my response!

Oh no, better to say it than for me to falsely accuse a guy of something more serious than being drunk in public. And I live in Ireland. Half the population is drunk in public!

If you’ve been caught drink driving 4 or 5 times, imagine how many times that he hasn’t been caught. Dude needs help before he hurts himself or someone else due to his willfully negligent driving habits.
