More On Mysterio's Heat - Hoping To Have Suspension Overturned

As reported yesterday, numerous sources within WWE have said there is a lot of heat on Rey Mysterio for doing an interview with a Mexican newspaper explaining his side of his recent suspension. Some within WWE feel Mysterio put himself in a position where the company would have to punish him further or else risk someone else following the same path without consequence. Company protocol is to keep quite while suspended.

Mysterio worked SmackDown live events over the weekend, losing to World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk. The Intercontintal Champion was initially pulled from this past weekend's slate of house shows, but that decision was reversed when WWE opted to start his suspension on Wednesday in order tie up his place on television at tomorrow night's SmackDown taping in Cleveland.

Mysterio has told wrestlers who have asked about the circumstances behind his suspension that he had a legitimate prescription for a painkiller and that WWE didn't give him proper notice and time for his doctor to give them details on said prescription. He told many that he hopes WWE will reconsider his case and overturn his suspension when he personally speaks to management today or tomorrow.
