WWE legend and member of the WWE Hall of Fame, Jim Ross has seen everything in the business over the many decades that he has spent in the WWE and recently he spoke about the Roman Reigns Affair, that saw the super star being suspended for a month for having violated the company's wellness programme. JR, as he is fondly called, did not seem too pleased witht he whole thing. He said, "Well, it's embarrassing for the talent. I have no idea what substance that he - you wanna hope invariantly - was taking. There's a lot of the wrestlers, men and women, that are really big into the supplements out of the health food stores, and if they're not careful and they don't really vet it and see what's on those ingredients, they can be inadvertently taking something that's against the wellness program. So I'm assuming that's what he did."
However, he also offered words of encouragement to Roman Reigns, "He's a hell of a good kid. I had a lot of fun when he was in developmental, when I was still working in WWE, helping him and talking with him, kind of mentoring him a little bit, like a lot of guys did - cause you wanted to mentor him cause he listened and he put what you told him into practice. So I was disappointed in him."
He also spoke about the future when Reigns comes back," The fans don't win. So I think the triple match should be booked and held. But he's gotta be smarter in what he takes. The company has invested lots of money, the talent has invested lots of their time and efforts into helping him, and he's gotta just be smarter than he was. And like I said, I just want to believe that it was totally inadvertent and that it will not happen again."
