WWE has suspended Joe Anoa`i (Roman Reigns) for 30 days effective immediately for his first violation of the company’s talent wellness policy.

 

Reigns issued a statement on Twitter regarding his suspension:

:wacko: ...well, guess that explains why he lost the title at Money in the Bank.

Ouch.  Wonder what he was taking to "make Reigns look strong"...

Frankly, that's partly WWE's fault imo. Pushing him up everyone's ass to get him over, putting in everything, making him the biggest star in the company for however long they've been doing now. I'm pretty sure he felt he had to look good and be super ripped etc (if its steroids of course) to keep it going in the eyes of the company and maybe himself.

 

Then again, maybe he just did it all by his lonesome and he's been doing it for a while. Who knows in the end. Plus, it could be a narcotic knock on him. Lord knows wrestlers are always in so much pain.

Yeah, it's the same show. They were streaming it a few hours ago, and usually, YouTube streams get converted to videos after they finish, so I'm confused why they've hidden the stream.

what was Reigns actually popped for?  I can't seem to find out at the moment.

It's a mystery. The only mention I've seen is JR assuming he got caught out by a dietary supplement: http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/722817-jim-ross-talks-roman-reigns-suspension

Well, it’s embarrassing for the talent. I have no idea what substance that he, you wanna hope invariantly, was taking. There’s a lot of the wrestlers, men and women, that are really big into the supplements out of the health food stores, and if they’re not careful and they don’t really vet it and see what’s on those ingredients, they can be inadvertently taking something that’s against the wellness program. So I’m assuming that’s what he did.

Kind of like what happened to Sylvester Stallone a few years back?  Got caught with supplements in a different country there were illegal there, but legal here in the USA?

    • Claude on Windows is eating up massive amounts of RAM, with no way to stop it

      By fernan99 · Posted

      Stopped using Windows as my main workflow. Migrated completed to Linux. Been happier than a clam without a single issue nor windows annoyance. Leaving Windows has shown me the light at the end of the tunnel, or rather I went through the tunnel and I'm already at the light.
    • AirPods Pro 3 are now available for only $179

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      AirPods Pro 3 are now available for only $179 by Taras Buria Apple's third-gen AirPods Pro 3 introduced a few important upgrades over the previous generation while retaining the old $249 price. Still, that is quite a lot of money for a pair of earbuds, but the good news is that right now, you can save quite a lot of money on them, thanks to a new all-time low price. AirPods Pro 3 retain their classic look and form factor, with changes focused on the inside. These earbuds now come with five sets of foam-silicone tips, which sit much more securely in your ear, making the earbuds a perfect choice for physical activities and workouts. Additionally, new tips provide better passive noise cancellation. Speaking of noise cancellation, ANC is now much better at blocking outside noise, with Apple claiming the AirPods Pro mute up to two times more sound than the AirPods Pro 2. The AirPods Pro 3 also have heart rate sensors for activity tracking during workouts. They also support Live Translation and Hearing Aid mode. As for battery life, you get up to 8 hours on a single charge, with the case adding 20 more. The case supports wireless (Qi or Apple Watch charger) and wired charging over USB Type-C (cable not included).

      Everything I have read is that the BBC is still Pro Doctor Who but wants a solid plan before they let anyone else try to do it. Which is fair.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I totally agree no one should trust governments AND big tech companies that have near monopolies in certain market segments. The difference is of course citizens at least have some say in government. Yes, requiring Apple to open up Sirsi to other AI backends is in the interest of EU customers and certainly "opens" up the platform a crack. What are you saying? I wish the US would regulate tech companies more here and even break them up in some cases. Granted trusting the government to do it right is a crap shot at best but what is the alternative? To allow a few tech companies to continue to run everything and just print money? It's crazy to me for example that in most of the world 99% of communications go thru Facebook servers via WhatsApp. What kind of dystopian world are we living in?
    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By _neutrino · Posted

      You can.. make sure you have ADB tools on whatever OS you are running, plug your phone into your PC give it approval to talk to the phone then run this command. adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome So long as you leave Android Webview untouched it wont break anything on your Phone to do this. I have been using exclusively Firefox mobile since it was released.
