Pretty wild that they managed to get the belt off him and establish his role in the next PPV before they found out about this but I guess life sometimes just shakes out that way huh

WWE should avoid Vegas, I guess.
Roman Reigns has 30 days to shut up and sip his beer.

Bret Hart fan huh?
An obvious ploy to undermine the legitimacy of Ambrose as champion and make him look weak, while keeping Roman strong.
I see through WWEs cheap games.

They wouldn't have set up the next PPV like they did if they knew ahead of time. It would make no sense. The draw was it being a Shield triple-threat match.

Huh? Blaming WWE because Roman failed their wellness test? That's rich.
"The internet" sure is filling up those arenas IRL, then..

His suspension will be up before Battleground funnily enough.

They spend more than casual fans, significantly more
We have a ton of people watch Raw every week even though they hate the product
Sometimes people are just plain stupid and can't walk away

Word was already going around on reddit and cagesideseats before RAW yesterday about the wellness suspension. See http://www.cagesideseats.com/2016/6...-roman-reigns-rumor-on-him-dropping-the-title
Wouldn't be surprised if WWE knew before MitB since the betting odds shifted a lot a day before the event.
This is pro wrasslin, bruh. Cheating on your fiance is like a 1/10 on the scumbag scale, all things considered.

You were just blaming the audience for the same thing...
It's still a triple threat match. He's back in time. JUST COINCIDENTALLY
This is really bad for him internally because Vince's insane vision was for him to be Cena 2.0, which doesn't make ANY sense given his personality.
Carny lifestyle worth is not getting caught hangin and bangin.

Right, the WWE is not the same as their audience. WWE gives wellness tests.

I would love for this to be a work but I spose WWE ain't gonna mess about with wellness violations.

The great thing about this business is that each and every night the audience gives their own wellness tests.

Just because they give him the tests doesn't mean they can't also be the ones responsible for putting him in a high-pressure situation he wasn't prepared for and doing nothing to address that pressure, leading him to drug use.

I feel bad for Roman. You can tell some of the chants get to him too. He's put on better matches than ambrose.

So what you're saying is Roman screwed Roman?
Shoot to kill
bruuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Right. It's 2016. Every fan is basically an "internet fan," casual or not. You could make these claims in 1997 maybe, but come on..

Seriously. It's no wonder it happened. He needed a safe place, but got nothing but hostility by a bunch of gross Internet smark nerds.

At least he gets 30 days of rest. He's been putting in a lot of work while everyone was out with injuries. #StillBelieve
Sucks that Dean is the champ as a result of this though.

were the steroids supposed to make Roman appear powerful?

Steroids increase muscle growth to a huge degree, if that's what he was suspended for. Yes, he would actually BE more powerful if he was using steroids.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
You might even say appearing powerful is "looking strong." But yeah, steroids just make you actually strong.
You guys are gonna be sad when you find out he was doing heroin to cope with all the boos.
You ready for that fourth reign?

now we know how he was able to pick up Seth for the powerbomb spot were as before he nearly breaks his back doing it to everyone except emaciated Dean.

Poor Roman. 
I'll be patiently waiting for his return. It'll be good for him to not hear those moronic smark chants.

Good. He just wasn't THE guy, no matter how adequately guys like AJ made him look.
It's just a co-ordinated announcement.

Usually they don't mention anyone while they are suspended.

I kinda hate how this came out because now we know the only reason Dean is champion is because Reigns fucked up and the only reason Seth won cleanly was because Reigns fucked up...Never change WWE.
His head will be projected into the ring like The Wizard of Oz as he gets drafted to RAW.
