What will happen to Evan Bourne when he returns?

[Troy]

Evan Bourne is currently serving a 60 day suspension for his second Wellness Policy failure, he had only been back on the road for less than two months after his first Wellness Policy failure. This latest suspension expires on March 17th so in two weeks time WWE have the option to bring him back to television.

Last time WWE kept him off television for a little bit before bringing him back so that he could defend the WWE tag team titles that he still held with Kofi. Soon after the dropped the titles on a house show, Air Boom then had a rematch in which they failed to regain the titles and then the next day he was suspended again.

What will WWE do with him this time? Will he make it back on television? If so when will he be brought back and what will he be doing if he makes it back to television?

He will go through a step program

- Being squashed on Raw
- Work Superstars
- Be the butt of a couple jokes on tv that blur kayfabe
- Losing streak at house shows
- 2-3 piss tests randomly
- Talked down to by agents and Ace

Simply put, he is going to be tested to see if he wants to be there and if he will fuck up or bitch while in the dog house. And honestly, it is his fault and no one else as he is the idiot who decided to smoke fake weed or spice to avoid a 2000 fine. He is the guy who failed another drug test a month after coming back. And he did when they made an exception out of this world for him, by making him the only person in the history of the company to get a wellness violation and not have to drop their title or fall down the card.

It is going to be a long road back for him. As you said he was lucky that last time they let him remain champion whilst he was suspended and then he abused their trust and got himself suspended again. I see him working Superstars for a bit and losing. He will be the Superstars jobber for a bit before gradually making it back to RAW as a jobber. If I was WWE I wouldn't even bother bringing him until at WM. There are too many important things going on and WWE can punish him a bit more by keeping him away from house shows for a couple more weeks.

The only way I see him moving up the card and winning regularly again is if the crowd really gets behind him and pretty much forces WWE to push him.

He will be buried and then realeased unless he proves he wont mess up again, however I can't see him being there in a year or two's time

Sent to WWE's Cruiserweight show should he still be around if / when it debuts.

 

[AZUCAR!]

I don't see him getting used at all. He had his chance when he came back from his first suspension and a few weeks later he got suspended again for failing WWE's Wellness test. They'll quite possibly send him back down to FCW and leave him down there for an unspecified amount of time or he'll end up released after Wrestlemania.

 

[Prodigy]

This will be a tough choice for WWE to be honest. I mean, in the public eye it is bad publicity for WWE to bring back a druggy who they put so much trust in, however if he sorts himself out he is a great draw for younger audiences and it could be a loss for WWE.

 

[Darth Shizzel]

If they can bring back Jeff Hardy and make him the WWE champion then they can bring back Evan and let him roam in the midcard, I think he just needs a sit down and a choice either he gets his head in the game and they will push him maybe to a IC title and a sometimes contender for the WWE title or he's shown the door.

The WWE works in mysterious ways, serial offenders like Orton and Hardy got perma-pushed yet workhorses like MVP & Natalya have got buried alive.

Seeming as they've kept him on despite him seemingly begging to be fired, you have to assume they are going to feature him again.

I think almost the opposite their keeping him cause he's doing shit to get fired I wouldn't be shocked if he came back only to get fired from failing another drug test.

 

[Defiant]

He's served two 60 day suspensions almost back to back so if anything I'm sure Evan's had a lot of time to take a look at himself and refocus. Unfortunately (though understandably) I doubt he'll ever regain the little momentum he had before. I love the guy, but he'll be gone within the next two years. Hopefully he proves me wrong.

 

[Andrew]

Superstars to start with for Bourne and maybe NXT.

He can help the new guys around until proven enough to be back on RAW or SD.

The WWE's removed him from the Raw opening, the WWE thingy, and almost everything but their website. There's no doubt in my mind that he's being released and just being held suspended so then that's additional time in a no compete clause. There's no point to really think about what could happen, he's as good as gone.

He's still in the Raw opening at least he was last week on the skybox stream I was watching. I watched for it as I read the report but he still does that shooting star press though I don't think he's highlighted as much

 

[Crippler]

Appear on Raw for 30 second squash matches then superstars for a month, then NXT for 2 years then finally FIRED.
