WWE Star Reportedly Suspended For Unprofessional Conduct Towards Vince McMahon

According to PWInsider, former WWE Tag Team Champion Titus O'Neil was sent home from last night's SmackDown tapings in Portland after likely being suspended for unprofessional conduct.

The situation occurred at the end of Monday's Raw when all of the talent were assembled at the top of the ramp for Daniel Bryan's retirement speech. Vince McMahon was walking to the ramp, and O'Neil grabbed McMahon's arm in a playful manner.

McMahon's response didn't look angry as he also playfully shoved O'Neil and laughed at him, but obviously the outlook on the situation has changed since then.

When O'Neil showed up at last night's Smackdown tapings, he was told that he would be sent home. PWInsider says that the suspension could be as much as 90 days, which would make him miss WrestleMania 32.

O'Neil had been riding an extended winning streak since his silent split from longtime tag team partner Darren Young. That streak came to an end Monday with a loss to Adam Rose.
