I just read that Jeff Hardy has been suspended by WWE for 60 days because of a violation of their substance abuse and drug testing policy.
I wondered last night why he lost the Intercontinental Championship to Chris Jericho in the middle of one of the biggest pushes that Hardy had been having since returning to WWE. Now I know why.

That's news to me. I guess I'll have to check out pwinsider.com. I wonder who'll win MITB now and who'll replace Jeff. I thought since he was getting pushed to the moon, they figured he didn't the IC title, so Chris got it so he wouldn't regret coming back. Then Jeff would win a world championship this year. That won't be happening anyime soon. Hopefully, Jericho or Kennedy will win this year's MITB. Although, Kennedy seems to be getting punished even after all this time since he got suspended. Jeff really blew this opportunity. :(

Oh, I know. He was finally after missing up before and coming back getting a push. And honestly I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't already written in to win MITB and now because he messed up they'll have to rewrite months ahead.

Yea, and my favorite of all HHH is the boss son-in-law and we all know too that there is NO WAY he's using anything (YEA RIGHT!!!, and he's my favorite and I think that it's just he's got people in the right places and can get by with it), If he ever divorces Stephanie lets see how fast he ends up suspended for steroids.

you know its so funny that some of these guys tend to be treated as favourites and am sure they will get caught as soon as they fall out of favour with the management of wwe,but until then lets wait and see it is sure that there is no innocent one amongst the wrestlers

The thing is by it being a 60 day suspension we know he's used them before. That's why I say rehab should be mandatory before they come back from the suspension. If they know they have to do that before they can come back from the suspension no matter what number violation it is then I think it would cut down on it quite a bit.

Yup! And he is not the only professional sports entertainment athlete to be using the substances either. One other main athlete that had problems for a long time was Randy orton. But he seems to have finally straightened out. Vince usually just suspends them as they are a very valuable asset to his company. It's a shame but it's actually fairly rampant this substance abuse. I knew about this infor prior to the matches Monday night as I read Pro wrestling insider online.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Yea. And the thing is under the new policy they have since it's for 60 days that means it's a second violation of the policy and a third violation will mean mandatory release.
I guess I just better be glad that my all time favorite HHH is the boss son-in-law because we all know as built as he is that he probably uses but I'm sure that he is probably one of very few that Vince lets it slide with.

Randy's was for building his body. This was a year and a
half or so ago when he got "injured" and was out for a few months. Thanks for BR as well.
