Vince McMahon was apparently not too pleased with Roman Reigns failing a drug test
Aside from the upcoming draft and brand split, the major news in the world of WWE lately has been the suspension of Roman Reigns. The three-time WWE Champion was suspended 30 days for his first violation of the WWE Wellness Policy, leaving many to believe that his mega push could be coming to a halt.
That actually might be the case in some respects, because the boss himself is understandably upset with his top guy getting flagged for the violation.
According to the Wrestling Observer (h/t WrestleZone.com), Vince McMahon is none too pleased with the fact that the man he’s pushing as the next big thing of his company hit this massive roadblock in the form of a Wellness Policy violation. While Reigns will still be one of the top guys in the company when he returns soon, he might not be at the level that he’s been the past few years which was basically the heir apparent to John Cena as the face of the company.
In reality, this report shouldn’t be all that stunning. Reigns was put in quite the position by McMahon, who seemed to really have an affinity for his future in the company. Then, all of a sudden, his newest top guy gets popped and has to take a 30-day vacation.
Time will tell whether or not McMahon cools off a little bit and lets Reigns take his spot back, but right now it looks as if he could be in the doghouse for a little while longer.
