Alberto Del Rio Violates WWE Wellness Policy, Suspended 30 Days... also Paige... and Eva...
On Wednesday, August 17th, WWE announced that they have suspended Jose Rodriguez, better known to fans as Alberto Del Rio, for violating the
company's Wellness Policy.
Rodriguez will be serving a mandatory 30-day suspension effective tomorrow, Thursday, August 18th, for his first violation of the WWE Wellness Policy.
He joins Roman Reigns as another well-known, top active WWE Superstar to violate the Wellness Policy.

Talent may not be sexually transmitted, but apparently, Wellness violations are:

This might be his first strike, but it's not hard to imagine that this is the final nail in the coffin for his current WWE run. Right? Taking
into consideration his lack of motivation (I won't put all of that on him), which probably stems from his tenuous relationship with creative and
management I don't think either party will have any compunctions about parting ways when his contract is up. I think the real question here,
moving forward, is whether or not he decides to ask for his release BEFORE his contract is up.
He's got plenty of options out there in the world. Work in Mexico is only a phone call away, and I'm sure LU wouldn't mind having
him back.
edit: Just now saw Anglefan's post. Goddamnit Paige.

Yeah, I have no doubts whatsoever that he's gone after his contract is up in a few months, if not sooner than that. I'm sure that Lucha
Underground would pick him back up in an instant.
As for Paige, I might be a fan of hers, but in this instance, I've got no sympathy. She made her bed and now has to lie in it. I was thinking at
first that this was another AJ/Punk scenario, but AJ left of her own accord, she didn't get Wellnessed alongside Punk, although if Punk did get
Wellnessed, that'd be a whole different issue in and of itself.

It's unfortunate, but hopefully this is the boot to the ass that gets Paige's act back together. I'm fearing this might be the
continuation of a downward spiral.

So they got busted for coke and/or something like that right? I know Paige has been trying to get in shape, but peds would seem out of place.
Add in nobody knowing what Roman was dinged for...and 80's HBK is smiling while modern HBK...not so much.

Unfortunately, I'm thinking its more of the latter rather than the former. Paige just made history with this as well, since she's now the
first woman to get a Wellness violation in the WWE.
Also, if things get really out of hand, Del Rio's gonna be in some shit since Paige's family does not seem like the kind of people that
I'd wanna get on the bad side of.

As far as I know, and this comes from living in a community that gets a lot of Marines from the 29 Palms base in town partying it up on weekends and
NOT from personally trial & error, cocaine has a really short half-life in your blood and urine and is supposed to be undetectable after 24-48 hours.
Whether that's an old (hard partying 80's) wives tale or not, I don't know. I suppose I could Google it, but I do so enjoy the
natural ebb and flow of civilized discussion.
It would make sense that she (and he, obv) could have been busted for some sort of fat-burning, amphetamine-based product. It's been noted
elsewhere here on the bOOards that ADR is looking a lot more cut than we've been used to seeing him, so there's that.
Also something that could have played a factor is ALCOHOL. My understanding of the wellness policy is that performers aren't allowed to be under
the effects of alcohol while performing, or conducting business under the WWE banner. Is it possible that maybe they partied it up a little too much
on the recent overseas tour? Had a hangover bad enough to trip a drug test?
Who knows at this point, but it'll be interesting to see how this plays out.

Christ, I didn't even think about that. If I was ADR I'd DEFINITELY avoid taking bookings in the UK for the foreseeable future. I imagine
Saraya and/or Ricky Knight has it within themselves to pull a Brick Top and feed him to some hungry pigs.

After listening to Saraya Knight's Colt Cabana podcast, I would be inclined to agree.
Alberto El Patron could always return to ROH!

Yayo info: http://drug.addictionblog.org/how-long-does-cocaine-stay-in-blood-hair-or-urine/
My hard partying neighbor used to do coke every once in a while and he thought it didn't stay in your blood that long. He also had an idea they
would take a hair sample. So, on that note, he partied hard one weekend a few days before he had a major job interview at a bank. Even though
he's mostly bald he shaved his head and goatee and figured he was okay. He didn't figure on them sampling his chest hair. He did not get
the job.

Fire ADR now and get him out of the company. Sit Paige down and scare the shit out of her to get her head back on straight. Fuck, when she gets back
from rehab make her room-mate with Death Ray (who's being called up soon to the main shows as a producer) or even hire her incredibly
scary-looking mom to keep her contained. This is fucked and she has too much potential to waste by becoming this generation's Sunny.
You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know,
that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but
I'm not high. You know what I mean?

I suspected for a while now that there was something going on besides the injuries she had the last few months. There was a backstage clip from about
this time last year where Road Dogg took her aside and told her to lose the attitude backstage. Her in-ring decline/shift-to-jobber began not longer
after she and Alicia got booted out of a restaurant for nearly getting in a fight with some hecklers. For awhile most of her own social media accounts
were full of pics of her with a drink in her hand. Then there was that thing in Vegas with ADR where the cops showed up and put her in a van and they
tried to explain it off as some nonsense they were doing for Total Divas.
Kid's got issues, probably from life on the road with no one looking out for her. They can save her if she wants to be and hopefully will before
she wrecks her career.

Does hashtag activism work? We gotta get together to #SavePaige, mostly because of things like this.
Come back to us, baby girl, before it's too late.

Thought I saw Del Rio wearing tights that said "El Patron" on them on Smackdown this week. Never noticed them before. Was wondering if that might
have made management enforce said wellness policy so quickly.

Guys, guys. Eva Marie didn't do anything wrong. How was she supposed to know whatever she tested positive for could be absorbed Vicks Vapor-Rub
style from her chest. The REAL culprit could still be at large.
