Major Update on WWE Suspensions

Source: Wrestling Observer

If the much talked about WWE suspensions began on the day they were announced, August 30th, then the 30 day suspensions should have ended this past Friday. Several WWE superstars should be returning this week, however, two of them will not be returning. Charlie Haas, John Morrison, Mr. Kennedy, Umaga, William Regal and Funaki should all return to action this week. Edge and Gregory Helms are both eligible to return, however they are still out with injuries.

King Booker still has a month left before he is eligible to return as he is serving a 60 day suspension because he failed a Wellness test earlier this year. The other superstar not returning this weekend is Chavo Guerrero, who is being kept off TV a little longer due to the "I Quit" match with Rey Mysterio on SmackDown. Expect Chavo to return sometime in early November.

As far as Chris Masters goes, his status is still up in the air. Masters was among the 11 suspended wrestlers, but its unknown if he is serving a 60 or 30 day suspension. Another superstar who we are not sure about is Gene Snitsky. Snitsky hasn't appeared on WWE programming since the last RAW before the Signature Pharmacy scandal broke, and he worked a Heat taping at the August 27th RAW. No word yet if he's out with some kind of injury, or his time off TV is related to the suspensions. Snitsky's name never came up in media reports regarding the Signature scandal, so it could be just that WWE creative didn't have anything for him right now or something else.
