World Wrestling Entertainment updated its Wellness Policy last week to officially note that any positive test for marijuana will result in a $2,500 fine. Previously, it was a $1,000 fine.
The levied fine was in response to pot usage running rampant throughout the company. With that being said, usage is said to be way down among those on SmackDown, but still reportedly "out of control" among RAW talent.
In the case of alcohol, the policy states that WWE performers are prohibited from "using or consuming alcohol at any time within a twelve hour period prior to any WWE event or WWE scheduled performance."
