Apparently WWE have decided not to publicly punish Orton for violating the WWE Wellness Program. In addition to be fined $2,000, Vince McMahon will hire Orton a rehab consultant where he/she will travel on the road with Orton, due to the fact Orton will not be taken off WWE television.
Many stars are outraged at WWE officials and even Vince McMahon for not taking drastic action towards the situation. Paul Heyman is said to be the most outraged, due to the fact that RVD, the star of ECW was suspened for thirty days for something similar to this situation, however, Orton has not even been serverly punished.
One source within WWE commented "This is highly unfair to the entire roster that Orton was not suspened. It's going to make the wellness program look more like a joke because just about everything in WWE leaks online." It should also be noted that Hulk Hogan is the reason Orton didn't get suspened because he played peace-maker during the entire situation. He persuaded Vince to keep Orton, especially with the big Summerslam showdown coming in August.
Hogan is bigger than the WWE and ECW titles! This is Bull! RKO should be suspended IMHO! First he causes problems with his anger and now failing drug tests. It doesn't matter if Hogan jobs, this is an outrage
this just rewards orton, he gets caught with drugs, takes steroids, and gets a win over hogan, YAY FOR FAIRNESS!
i dont care anymore, RVD is normal compared orton, bring him back, since were going to throw out all the rules, RVD has been in the buisness for years, orton is just some stupid piece of crap who has famous name attached to him (see teddy heart) screw you hogan, screw you vince, and screw you orton, RVD petition anyone?
This is a big time BS! Hogan is a pompous ass!!! He just needs to keep his damn mouth shut and let Orton get suspended. I wouldn't blame a number of Superstars and Agents for getting mad at this situation.
This does not suprise me at all and it should not suprise any of you either, the way the WWE is being ran right now is a real joke and they are at an all time low as a company when it comes to integrity and crediability.
I do not have any faith in the WWE right now and their horrible product, if the WWE keeps this garbage up, the only thing from the WWE, that I will be supporting is Smackdown Vs Raw 07 and I must say, thankfully that is not being directed by the WWE and by a game developer
All this for someone who hasn't nor ever will draw a dime in his life. Not to mention the fact that they've continually buied him on TV, and destroyed any shred of a chance there may have been of him breaking out. Beyond all comprehension.
If it were someone like Hogan or Rock, it still wouldn't be right or fair, but at least understandable.
Orton has always seamed to get preferential treatment, and that appears to be continuing. They better punish him after SS, and it should be HUGE. Even though doing that still is not fair.
I really dont care if Randy used steroids (I am not surprised, because I'm sure there are many who use it), but if he failed the drug test, its only fair to suspend him too. Heyman is right, its unfair that RVD is suspended and Randy only gets a fine. I think that should WWE not suspend Randy Orton, at least make him pay on the ring, let Hogan beat the hell out of Orton
THIS STORY IS FALSE I don't know how else to say it. I've been telling you guys forever that you shouldn't believe everything you read. This story has been confirmed as false. Dave said himself he doesn't know where this story came from, it isn't in the "supposed newsletter" and there is no mention on the official website. http://www.wrestlingobserver.com/wo/news/headlines/
I'm not mad, I just think it's crap that fake news get's posted here and everyone assumes it's real and the officers do nothing after I repeatily tell them that it's fake. Some ass-clown made up a fake news letter and everyone thought it was real, it's been like this on a bunch of wreslting forums all day, I doubt the Sabu story is real either. I mean I get annoyed because since this Union started I've been telling the guys to site their sources and not believe everything written, but people gobble this up like it's straight from Vince McMahon's mouth. You realize half the crap we read is abosolute BS, it's filler made up by some guy in his mom's basement. You don't realize that you F with a person's lively hood when you just assume crap about them. That's why smarks are the worst fans of all, they don't realize this is a person's life, they get half-assed news and think they've got it all figured out, then based on that they either pan or build up a wreslter, this is a business where jobs are made off of the fans view too. That's the most ironic thing of all this trash too, we all think we're being (smart fans) and making are own choices on who we like by not buying into the hype the company pushes, in reality we just buy into the hype the guy writing the gossip story pushes. All he has to say is "Sources in the developmental league say The Great Khali is one of the best big men they've seen since Andre." and bam thousands of retarted teenagers are Khali fans because they think the smart people think he's good.

As far as I am concerned, Mena should start to enforce a policy on the Union saying, that only news can be taken and posted from reliable websites, and provide us a list of sites to only post news from, because you are 100% right about what you said
Mena, if you are out there listening, please let's put the clamps down around here, we do not need this union be littered with fake news stories like the ones posted earlier
