Again, in 2021, when revenue is allegedly at an all-time high…why the **** do WWE talent drive themselves *anywhere*? Every single member of the roster should have professional designated drivers. If for no other reason than that it’s detrimental to this billion dollar company to have things like this happen.
Especially in a place where anybody who doesn’t look “white enough” will be pulled over and tested for any (or no) reason.

And even if they don’t, how many WWE performers are making six figures a year minimum? Surely they’ve made enough money that they can afford an Uber. |

He may or not have a drinking problem, we cannot know for sure. But he does have a responsibility problem, a judgement problem. Plenty of people drink to that extent and dont cause any problems as they have rides arranged, or they call or have someone call them a ride. Either drink at home or leave your car there.

Or just get a fleet of f***ing buses to drive the roster where they need to go. |

The wrestlers wanting to avoid stuff like this is how HHH ended up in the Kliq and why some of the well-known partiers would travel with CM Punk when he was called up to WWECW, since they knew they’d have a sober driver.

As others have pointed out, in the era of Uber and Lyft, when you're earning six-figures+ working for a major international corporation, you don't even need to do that anymore. Just call a damn ride. |

He does have a problem, I can get that but there becomes a time you stop feeling sorry for somebody. I can have compassion that the dude might not be able to stop himself from drinking but he does still have the ability to stop himself from driving while doing so.
He’s endangering other people, being reckless and he’s going to get someone killed…

Exactly! I even pointed that out a few posts up. But I figure if you’re too shitfaced to think to do that, you might as well make friends with somebody who’s abstaining just to be on the safe side. |

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. Cena made a joke about it and they laughed about it iirc. Didn't the last one happen like, the day after Cena made that joke? |

He needs to go now. I don't care who he is. 4 or 5th time is way to many. He needs help and needs a wake up. call. No matter who you are or how talented you maybe, you don't deserve your spot when you do this more than once. It sucks but its reality. I was enjoying Jimmy return at the start when he had the Nobody's bitch deal. Than he became just another one of them.

Oh, I'm completely with you! Sorry if it came across like I was "well actually...ing" you. I just feel like a DUI (much less multiple DUIs) is something you really can't give someone a pass for in 2021. |

Homie needs help
This is like his 4th or 5th time and he’s getting too old for this shit. We are going to park your ass and you’re going to rehab.

Sadly, by not saying anything to him, WWE, Jey, Naomi, Rikishi, Roman and anyone else close to him are just enabling him. I really hope Naomi takes this seriously, because even with everything she's apparently been dealing with over the last few years in her personal life, she needs to understand that her husband has a serious problem.
Unfortunately, I think it'll just get swept under the rug like every other time.

Also here is the thing, I wouldn’t even fire him
This is reaching Jeff Hardy territory of we have to babysit your ass and can’t allow you to have any freedom. He’s playing a dangerous game with his life and others and until I know he is in right frame of mind, he’s going to rehab and when he completes that he’s staying home permanently until I see fit
Your brother and cousin don’t need you as part of their act anymore. You was supposed to get elevated and you fell all the way back. By sitting your ass on the shelf your professional career will dwindle away unless you get your shit together

This is the 4th or 5th time that we know of! Who knows how many times he's done this shit.
Dude needs help and wwe needs to do something about it. He shouldn't be back on tv this Friday like nothing happened.

He shouldn't be back on tv this Friday like nothing happened. He’s no doubt gotten stupid wasted before and didn’t get caught. Jericho described The Uso’s as his “back of the bus boys” on his podcast a few years ago before he left WWE because they were really one of the only ones who would drink with him and stay out light. They have the “old school mindset” while a lot of guys would just go to their rooms instead of partying |

I had a drinking problem myself and by the point I could not control things anymore DUI was not a problem because I was never in any condition to leave the house. Before it got this bad I own any instance of me driving under the influence as my fault not the alcohol.
