I wonder if WWE is in a panick. How many of them do you think is on that? They can only only suspend so many people at once.

They'll quickly make a third brand called the Penalty Box where all the violators go to wrestle in meaningless matches each and every week!
Wait, that last bit isn't anything new.

 

[Jimmy King]

Isn't it policy that if someone fails a wellness test they can still have them fulfill commitments before suspending them?

 

[Marvel]

I hope it's a work, would be genius.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Brock looks like a genious making himself a part timer

What's a Genious? I'm confused

Didn't think about that. Yeah, it can't be her. Could be Asuka, but I doubt it. In all likelihood, the match will just be cancelled.



Brock isn't as much a genius as he is just in a way better position to negotiate than anyone else not named Dwayne Johnson.

If it's Asuka, the entire SD divas division is buried on site lol!

Ryan Satin teeeted this yesterday, which leads me to believe there are more

It was the weirdest thing.

Every test came back red.

 

[Barrage]

Isn't it policy that if someone fails a wellness test they can still have them fulfill commitments before suspending them?

No. It's that if yo go through rehabillitation you can get your second Strike removed.

Otherwise known as the Randy Orton rule, it's to prevent third strikes (which are termination).

 

[Angry Grimace]

I love Nikki Glencross (AKA Nikki Storm)

Her NXT name is apparently just "Nikki Cross" since Nikki Glencross is just her real name.

 

[UrbanDandy]

Wow, Eva Marie is the Excella Gionne of WWE

How so?

 

[serenewarfare]

Isn't it policy that if someone fails a wellness test they can still have them fulfill commitments before suspending them?

They can yeah, but the article on their website says it is effective immediately. So she can't compete Sunday or at Backlash. She's missing two PPVs.

 

[notworksafe]

Bayley loses Saturday. Bayley debuts Sunday. The only problem is you want Bayley's full debut to be a bit bigger than a six person match probably on the pre-show.

They might just can the match considering it was probably a pre-show filler anyways.

Yeah, that'd be a bummer for the SD women. Even a shitty multi-woman match is still a match. Also two hours is a lot of time to fill if WWE doesn't have a preshow match.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

No. It's that if yo go through rehabillitation you can get your second Strike removed.

Otherwise known as the Randy Orton rule, it's to prevent third strikes (which are termination).

Yeah. Occasionally they can decide whether to punish you immediately or not (example: Reigns knew about his suspension for weeks, it didn't happen until after that one Raw, and Del Rio and Paige's suspensions were "announced" yesterday but didn't take effect until today)

That's gotta suck going into Vince's office and showing him the list.
"Ummm, Mr. McMahon..."

 

[rrc1594]

Byron dipped 180 when Joe got up LMAO

 

[serenewarfare]

They could add a match with some of the SD tag teams.

I feel like there will a random Sami Zayn vs. Baron Corbin or something ridiculous like that match that just shows up on Thursday

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Yeah, there will probably be more post-Summerslam

 

[Arrowgigantic]

Dang so what happens to the SD women's match now? 2v2 instead or do they grab someone from NXT to sub in?

There's somebody who is hot (the hottest, in fact) and also has red hair available.

 

[Oersted]

Maybe she went to a rave with Naomi and took some E.

The E stands for Entertainment.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Bull Nakano with red hair again?

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Who? Drawing a blank. New?

 

[Marvel]

The E stands for Entertainment.

 

[oddjobs]

I guess WWE felt they had to show they were making an effort with the wellness policy after Brock getting busted by USADA and not WWE.

I wonder who else will end up getting popped.

 

[MC Safety]

I wonder if WWE is in a panick. How many of them do you think is on that? They can only only suspend so many people at once.

It's not as if Eva Marie was wrestling.

This is addition by subtraction.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

I feel like there will a random Sami Zayn vs. Baron Corbin or something ridiculous like that match that just shows up on Thursday

Wonder if this is why Sami isn't booked on Summerslam... Makes you think.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

I know who can replace Eva.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I wonder who else will end up getting popped.

JBL.

I hope.

 

[newdayrocks]

Maybe it's something to combat her anxiety.

Feel really sorry for her, she had a good gimmick going.

She was a sure-thing to win on Sunday, too!

 

[Bluekaveli]

JBL.

I hope.

I guess the air on those mountains are toxic eh?

 

[notworksafe]

There's somebody who is hot (the hottest, in fact) and also has red hair available.

 

[serenewarfare]

If Nikki was completely cleared, she'd be back on TV already.

 

[Jimmy King]

Who would be the most shocking wellness violator? Bayley?

 

[Ithil]

I know who can replace Eva.

That giant letter A? It's red I suppose.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Who would be the most shocking wellness violator? Bayley?

Sami Zayn or Bayley. Zayn less so because he's still slowly rehabbing the shoulder injury and lots of mostly-innocuous stuff is banned by the Wellness Policy.

 

[UrbanDandy]

i guess you can call this "The Suspension Era"

 

[serenewarfare]

Who would be the most shocking wellness violator? Bayley?

I think Cena would be the most shocking solely based on the fact that I don't believe they would suspend him.

 

[Cagey]

Eva Marie didn't get suspended because WWE is working us with fake suspensions.

Eva Marie got suspended to keep the gimmick alive by intentionally doping and triggering a positive result.

She lives and breathes kayfabe.

God she's so great.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

So this is how Sami Zayn finally ends up on the card

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Yeah, it's just wishful thinking. Nikki probably isn't returning until after Backlash. Odds are the match gets cancelled. If I could dream, they'd draft Summer Rae randomly and have her fight for them because she's not gonna get a story on Raw for another five years probably.

 

[Toki767]

Who would be the most shocking wellness violator? Bayley?

Probably Kevin Owens.

Family man and all that.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Dave says these three are it for now, nothing else coming

 

[Arrowgigantic]

Who? Drawing a blank. New?

The hottest

Spoiler

free agent in Sports Entertainment baybayyyy

 

[DMczaf]

Dave says these three are it for now, nothing else coming

Plans will not change.

 

[somedevil]

If they want to replace Eva for one night put a red wig on Mandy Rose and let it be part of the gimmick that she never going to wrestle by her using a replacement to avoid the match.

 

[jmdajr]

It's not as if Eva Marie was wrestling.

Well.

Yes it is.

 

[Angry Grimace]

God she's so great.

how deep does this work go

 

[jmdajr]

Probably Kevin Owens.

Family man and all that.

Kevin Ownes suspended for using Fat Burners.

 

[Sephzilla]

Who would be the most shocking wellness violator? Bayley?

Bo Dallas

 

[Bluekaveli]

Kevin Ownes suspended for using Fat Burners.

Why does ot have to be fat burners though?
