It seems like it's been forever since someone has been suspended for violating the "wellness policy". Is it still in effect or is WWE just not reporting this stuff? I can't believe no one is in violation, especially with a roster as big as ever. The last I remember was Lesnar who failed UFC's drug test, which made WWE look guilty as hell...

it’s been made pretty clear with kennedy’s incident etc that you just keep a proper doctor prescription for whatever you’re using at the time.

Daniel Bryan is the WWE Champion. New guys coming in probably aren’t looking at him and saying “steroids is how to get that spot.”

Are you complaining that people aren't using illegal drugs, or...?

Are you complaining that people aren't using illegal drugs, or...? He's not, he's just asking a question. Don't really know how you came to that conclusion. Anyways.... I do think some guys are using stuff. Look at Jinder, for example. The guy has bacne and tits, two signs of steroid use. Neville, when he was there looked like it too. Even Rollins looks bigger than he did a few years ago. I think you're just choosing to be naive to think that everyone on the roster is clean. |

I personally think with the exception of Jinder (Maybe a few others that I’m not thinking of right now) everyone on the roster looks smaller/leaner than they did a couple years ago.

I think it was talked about during Jinder’s push and Lesnar getting popped in UFC, but WWE’s Wellness Policy isn’t an anti-drug policy. It’s more in place to keep guys safe, rather than to prevent people from “enhancing”.
So built into the policy, there’s thresholds. There are guys that are on stuff, but they are just below the threshold for breaking the policy. WWE is more looking to make sure people aren’t dying on their watch due to drugs. Also, I think the penalty for weed was changed to a small fine rather than a suspension.
I feel like most of the people that have failed in recent years have been due to weird stuff like failing to pee in time, or some legitimate medication.

I'm sure the men/women will always be able to find ways around it.

I honestly never understood why the WWE has a drug policy like actual sports. I get "wellness" and wanting to keep people healthy, etc. I'm talking about the fact that guys get suspended or fined or "3 strikes your out" for stuff like weed or HGH.
but this is a scripted television show with choreographed moves. Its nothing like UFC where guys are literally hitting the crap out of each other, or football where if you're 265lbs of roided muscle and speed you're gonna kill someone. Literally no advantage comes to anyone in this business taking stuff.
it'd be like if a movie company suspended an actor for juicing up for a role....makes zero sense to be honest.
I get if you're high and you show up for a match you should be punished. Or drunk, or anything like that. But thats literally any job in the country....dont show up under the influence of anything, but if you're hurt and you can get HGH to help you heal quicker, how is that a suspendable offense?

It’s more of just not being on top of the organizational stuff than trying to do drugs and get away with it. |
