The cause of Titus O’Neil’s WWE suspension by Mr. McMahon has been released online

It was announced that WWE suspended superstar Titus O’Neil 90 days for grabbing Vince McMahon at the end of this Monday’s RAW broadcast. According to PWInsider.com, the suspension was called for him showing unprofessional conduct. After Daniel Bryan’s retirement ceremony, cameras showed Vince and Titus getting into it. It appears to be somewhat playful, but apparently it was anything but.

If you were not able to get a good look, here is a quick video of the incident:

It appeared that Titus was either trying to tell Mr. McMahon something, or as most people reported, they were playing around. Apparently, Mr. McMahon was not in the mood and gave him a lengthy suspension. It is very unusual for something like that to happen, especially to someone as well-liked as Titus O’Neil. After all, he is a great ambassador for the company when it comes to children events. Titus has been seen on all fronts of company business, giving WWE good PR when needed to.

It is possible that once the Daniel Bryan segment finished, Mr. McMahon just wanted everyone to go to the back as quickly as possible. WWE’s cameras were quick to fade away once the incident happened. The company even edited their video to try and remove the incident from being shown. As you can see though, nothing escapes the internet.

The suspension will not allow Titus to gain a WrestleMania paycheck and he won’t be allowed on the road. Once Titus’ suspension is complete, it is unknown if there is more punishment awaiting him. In the weird-ruled world of WWE, anything is possible.
