So much for that push. I wonder if they could work it into the "controversial" angle?

The worst part about this is now RFDC will use this to say he was right.

Of course its an angle. 1) The Swagger Soaring Eagle drives Jack's car. 2) No one in their right mind is going to arrest anyone in a car with Dutch Mantel in it when driving thru Mississippi 3) Jack only smokes American grown weed. 4) he's granted special dispensations as an All-American American. Sort of like Buzz Aldrin, Ted Williams, guys like that.

I don't think this will change his match with ADR. They'll bury him afterwards, but he's not famous enough where this is really bad. If I were wwe, I'd more concerned with Cena and the porn chick.

Was the DUI for alcohol or the Weed?

pulled over for speeding, which led to DUI, leading to a search where they found the weed.

Swagger must really be a dumb fuck. I would fire his ass right away. He's getting a huge push, when just a month ago he wasn't even on TV. He obviously has no respect for his profession, and isn't responsible.

You know what schmitty, I kinda of agree with you on firing Swagger, guy just comes back, was going to be in a big Mania match, which is I would say the goal of a wrestler and just craps it all away.

In reality, I will ask does anything happen here?

My guess would be at worst we have a triple threat match, I would think they would still like to go with this angle.

According to the official Wellness Policy of the WWE, which you can read on their corporate website, the punishment for any WWE Superstar or employee being arrested in possession of drugs could be as severe as an immediate dismissal from the company.

"Any WWE Talent, who is arrested, convicted or who admits to a violation of law relating to use, possession, purchase, sale or distribution of drugs will be in material breach of his/her contract with WWE and subject to immediate dismissal."

At the very least, WWE can use the drug charge in lieu of a positive test for the substance, amounting in a fine of $2,500. However, testing positive for marijuana is not held to the same standard as steroids, or other performance enhancing drugs, and WWE is under no legal obligation to suspend Swagger, in the event that he remains with the company.

I don't want Swagger to be fired, but I would understand if they do. I could start this entire angle over with someone, and you wouldn't miss a beat. That superstar is Cody Rhodes.

Wow bigger than rvd stupid?

Saw it on in a few place plus twitter why not make a statement and fire him,scence you won't fire rko, have mark henery or the shield destroy him on Monday than have a 8 man smackdown tournament for swaggers spot.

Per pwtourch you can void his contract under the wellness policy due to law enforcement envolvment

It's announced that Swagger has been fired. Cody Rhodes comes up to Dutch backstage and says he was inspired by what he was doing with Swagger. Dutch says he's known Cody since he was a baby. The only difference is he couldn't stand his pappy. Cody says he doesn't like him either. Cody does the same deal as Swagger, but also adds that he had to deal with a father that treated everyone the same, and that made him sick. Dusty ends up in Del Rio's corner for Mania, giving him more of a babyface rub. Cody is elevated to the main event. You get to keep your racist heat seeking angle.

No if I remember that guy was given a push to the MOON(not Max) and he got pulled over with weed and shit. RVD was worse, but not by much.

I really liked this gimmick and thought Swagger/Dutch played the perfect pair. I was already planning on buying a "Real American" tshirt.

Again the guy that I feel the worst for is Bob. He almost had his Wrestlemania moment.

Drop In and I were planning on pouring champagne over his head if Swagger won the title like Andre the Giant did to Hulk Hogan when he defeated The Iron Sheik.

:lol: :lol: :lol: Awesome. This needs to happen

Listening to Meltzer and he says the DUI was for weed, there was no alcohol involved. They basically have 4 options: Ignore it (weed is a fine for wellness policy), Suspend him for 30 days and continue the angle with 2-3 weeks left until Mania, drop the angle entirely, or transfer the angle to someone else.

Thats why I was asking before. After seeing a hundred athlete DUI reports over the years this one said nothing about B.A.C., breath test/blood test....so I had a feeling it was just for the reefer. I would guess this will plead down to a far lesser charge or violation.

It would fuck up the plea agreement and piss off the judge but it would be pretty ballsy and bad ass to come out monday night and say some illegal immigrants planted it in his truck while they tried to car jack it earlier from the gas station or something.

I'm not 100% positive you didn't slip the marijuana into his car a few weeks back.

The Ironton Tribune is reporting today that Rob Van Dam and Sabu were arrested Sunday night as they were driving from yesterday's ECW show in Huntington, WV to tonight's Raw taping in Philadelphia, PA. RVD was driving the car near Hanging Rock, OH when they were pulled over for speeding. When the trooper approached the car, he smelled marijuana and performed a search. The story reported that RVD, real name Robert Szatowski, was found to have 18 grams of marijuana and five Vicodin in his possession.

The story also stated that Sabu, real name Terry Brunk, "was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and also had nine pills that were not immediately identifiable, but were known to be controlled substances, according to the OSHP." They were cited and posted bond at the scene. They are both scheduled to appear at 10 a.m. on Thursday in Ironton Municipal Court.

The very next day they pulled the titles off of RVD. I don't think Swagger will be going to Wrestlemania. I could be wrong though.
