WWE announced on Wednesday that Alberto Del Rio has been suspended for violating the talent wellness policy.
WWE has suspended Jose Rodriguez (Alberto Del Rio) for 30 days effective tomorrow, Thursday, Aug. 18, for his first violation of the company’s talent wellness policy.
Del Rio wrestled John Cena in the main event of last night’s SmackDown Live. He was not scheduled for a match at this weekend’s SummerSlam PPV.
The 30-day suspension will keep him out of action until late September, so he will miss Backlash, the first SmackDown-brand PPV scheduled for 9/11.
