Major change to WWE's Wellness policy

[chessarmy]

According to a new report by PWInsider, WWE wrestlers who underwent drug testing as part of the company's Wellness Policy this week were confronted with more rigorous testing conditions.

For those unaware, past tests saw wrestlers urinate into a vial at a urinal, but starting this past week male performers were required to provide a sample in full view of those representing Aegis Science (the firm that tests WWE's urine samples). Wrestlers, both male and female, were also required to drop their pants at least down to their knees and pull their shirts up above their n*pples.

These new testing procedures were believed to be adapted to help prevent talent from taking advantage of the procedures by using cheating devices. The word making the rounds among WWE wrestlers was that an incident had sparked the more strict testing procedures, but no one is reportedly quite sure what that situation entailed or if was something that never happened to begin with.

Either way, the belief at this point is that at least one WWE developmental talent who has since been released by the company had been caught trying to cheat when giving a urine sample. However, considering nothing could be confirmed at this time it is simply being regarded as a "story making the rounds" among talent. Whether it was based on a fact or a rumor, it was serious enough to cause changes in the testing procedures for all talent.

Wow, I guess Vince is serious about the steroids thing. He probably doesnt want to get in trouble with the government again. I think this is a good idea, even though it sounds weird...actually, its really weird but anything that can stop wrestlers from using drugs/roids is a good thing. These guys need to get it through their heads that they have to stop doing drugs and shit, if they want to have a successful career in the WWE, you just can't fail the wellness policy. Sure, you can argue that a few guys got pushed after getting suspended, but look at Jeff Hardy, he took drugs and now he'll probably never get pushed again.

The wellness policy needed some change and I hope that now maybe at least some of the wrestlers got the message

At least this shows that Vinnie Mac is serious.

What the fuck? Are Pat Patterson and Jerry Lawler in charge of the testing?

 

[Headfirst For Hardcore]

that's really funny with the pulling of the shirts, with a little bit of creepiness.

Someone probably used a piss maker to escape the test, that's my guess to what caused this. And yes, those are real, I remember someone on the Minnesota Vikings getting busted for one.

^^ I heard some guy in FCW tried to do that but got caught and released, so that's probably the reason WWE is putting this into effect. LOL @ pulling their shirt up to their nipples.

I'll bet money that Batista is going to get caught with steroids once the results come back.

[Tsaalyo Phoenix]

[the dark knight]

Thats not fair. I wish I could be one of those doctors.

"Layla, drop your pants and pull your shirt up.......One more time, I did not get a good look at it"

Ha, lucky doctors.
