The trio of WWE Wellness Policy violations from this week was the main topic covered on Jim Ross’ latest blog at JRsBarBQ.com.
Following the suspensions of Alberto Del Rio, Paige and Eva Marie, JR feels that it’s pretty obvious certain Superstars would be getting themselves into deeper trouble if not for the safety net of WWE’s Wellness Policy. “Adults, especially those that are blessed to earn large sums of money in their chosen profession, should know better if they are busted for partying,” he said. “If they are popped for using supplements with banned ingredients and they were not aware those supplements were on the banned list then that is another matter all together but a violation nonetheless.”
Ross put things in perspective, noting that wrestlers are not the only professional athletes dealing with these issues. At the end of the day, it boils down to personal responsibility.
“While WWE is a times unfairly criticized by fans who apparently don’t understand the program while other wrestling organizations who have no programs or impotent programs to help their athletes are generally given a free pass. That’s a head scratcher.”
