Ric Flair Update, News On Suspensions, Marijuana
Source: Wrestling Observer
- As we reported earlier Ric Flair walked out of WWE in the mindset of quitting. WWE have now offered him a huge new deal and a massive angle possibly leading to Wrestlemania. No word if Flair has responded though.
- To shed some light on what the superstars will go through when they are suspended. Jeff Hardy who served a 30 day suspension a few days ago lost around $100,000 including house shows and a PPV bonus. As mentioned before when suspended wrestlers do not get paid.
- One of the recent changes to the Wellness Policy saw the introduction of marijuana testing. If a star is caught with the substance they will not be suspended from TV or the schedule but will just have it taken off them and possibly their pay docked. Although illegal it's not considered a big deal and before this revision it was just frowned upon.
