The Wrestling Observer's Headline Says It All...

"WWE wrestlers are so screwed this time"

Holy cow. Not only does this completely expose the Wellness Policy as totally ineffective (as many of these guys were buying tons of stuff during the period when testing was going on, and apparently none have been caught as of yet), but if these guys are indeed among the ten wrestlers WWE announced it had suspended earlier today, it completely straps the company of a ton of top names when they are already hard hit by injuries. Case by case of the big names:

Randy Orton: Current top challenger to the WWE Title on Raw.

Kennedy: Future main-eventer and has been planned to be Vince's son ever since the angle started.

John Morrison: Current ECW champ, whose insane push has totally buried the only other major star on the brand (CM Punk).

Umaga: Top Raw star and current IC champ.

William Regal: Currently Raw General Manager.

Chavo Guerrero: Being re-built as a heel on Smackdown, challenged Rey at SummerSlam in his comeback match.

Edge: Currently out with injuries, but will be a top heel on Smackdown when he returns.

Helms, Haas and Funaki are lower on the totem pole, but no less significant to this story.

In addition, the SI expose reveals that Benoit and Eddie Guerrero both received steroids from the same source, as did Brian Adams, who also just passed away a few weeks ago.

This has to be as low a point for the company as anything in the past ten years. More thoughts in the days to come. For now, I will leave with two questions:

1. Chavo - after what happened to Eddie, what the hell were you thinking?

2. Is there any way WWE can put EVERY title on CM Punk, right now?
