Alberto Del Rio has been suspended by WWE for 30 days
The Mexican superstar has been suspended for his first violation of the wellness policy. The announcement was made just after Triple H finished the conference call for the upcoming NXT Takeover: Brooklyn event.
His suspension will go into effect on Thursday, 18 August. A statement has been released on WWE.com.
This is his second stint with the company, following a much-publicized firing following an altercation with an employee backstage in 2014. He lost to John Cena on last nights’ SmackDown Live in a very good match, and is not on the card for this weekends’ SummerSlam Pay-Per-View.
