More Details On WWE's New Wellness Policy Testing Procedure
Slam Wrestling has a new article online today where Ken Kennedy talks about the new WWE Wellness Policy testing procedure. All WWE Superstars are now required to urinate in a cup in front of another person with their shirts above their waist. This eliminates any chance of Superstars using "fake bladders" or other mechanisms to cheat the system. Here is how Kennedy described the situation:
Hello, Mr. Kennedy. Welcome back from your movie shoot. Now drop your pants, lift your shirt and pee in this cup, please.
True story.
"That's how we had to take our urinalysis. The guy was sitting there watching us from the front. It was pretty invasive and a little humiliating, but that's how you have to do things nowadays because people cheat," Kennedy explained to SLAM! Wrestling before the start of the WWE swing through eastern Canada. "I think I'd have a hard time peeing if there was a dead guy in the room with me, let alone another male sitting there checking you out. Then the guy tried to talk to me while I was doing it, like I was in the dentist's office. 'So Ken, how long have you been doing this for?'"
