Failed Drug Tests & Suspensions In WWE Developmental Not Made Public
In the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that failed drug tests and suspensions in developmental are not made public.
“You can make of this what you will, but WWE company policy when it comes to drug test failures and suspensions are that all main roster failures and suspensions are released publicly. But failures in NXT and other developmental talent are not.”
Meltzer did not elaborate as to why WWE doesn’t announce failed drug tests and suspensions for developmental. This would indicate however that a talent can be suspended or fail a drug test and no announcement has to be made.
