If a WWE performer is suspended under the Wellness Policy and said performer is able to show the WWE a legit Doctors prescription for the drug they were suspended for, would the WWE then cancel the suspension and allow the performer to get back to work?  And, for instance, if it was a first offense for 30 days, would it be taken off so it would be like it never happened?

It is the performer’s duty to give WWE the paperwork at the time that they get the prescription.  As we saw with Adam Rose, if they do so after the fact it’s on the talent.

After seeing that English gentleman dude in the cruiserweight classic, Is it safe to say that Sheamus’s position as the palest man in wrestling has been usurped? LOL

Jack Gallagher and Sheamus are in a dead heat on that one.  Being one of the paler humans on the planet, I love it.  I also really enjoy Gallagher’s work.  I hope he sticks around.

I like Mauro's passion for the product, but is it just me or the shouting (screeching) is annoyingly overdone? Not to mention the awkwardly shoe-horned pop cultural references.

I haven’t talked to everyone else so I can’t say if it’s just you or not but speaking for myself, I love Ranallo.  He brings a great passion, not to mention a vast knowledge, to the announce booth.  I love his work.

There's always this negative vibe around wellness suspensions but with the policy having been around for a while do the people who get caught really knowingly abuse of substances that are overtly bad for them or is it that, in many cases, what they caught for happened to be buried inside something legit and they just didn't know it was in there.

The bottom line is that the talent is responsible for what they put into their body.  The supplement industry goes largely unregulated so one can never be 100 percent sure what is in them.  If it’s me, that means I just train hard the old fashioned way and stay away from the magic pills.

I have a burning question that is more for my own curiosity than anything else.  The monitors that are in the announcer tables at ringside . . . . these are either thrown on the floor or bashed on someone’s head every major show.  These appear to be “real” working monitors, so my question is are these really indestructible, or are they so cheap the WWE just purchases them in bulk to replace the ones that are destroyed? 

They are indeed working monitors and they are not very expensive so if they get destroyed, it’s no big deal.  Remember, this is a company that has blown up a limousine.
