Saving Face - The Jey Uso Arrest

in wwe •  7 years ago  (edited)

Remember when Rob Van Dam got busted with weed while on the road with Sabu? Remember how he was World Champion then? He wasn't for long.  To save face, the WWE felt the need to have RVD lose the title. 

Here we are now, years later and we run into a similar situation. 

The Usos have been on a steamroller (no pun intended) ride. Since their heel turn, attitude change and then seeming return to being faces, the Usos have been the definition of tag team wrestling on the Smackdown Live brand. 

The big question is now, will all of that change at the Royal Rumble Pay Per View when the twins face the likes of Benjamin and Gable. 

This isn't a question of ability, or ring awareness. This is a matter of Jey Uso getting arrested on Sunday for DWI. So we have to ask the big question: Will the WWE take the tag titles off of the brothers to save face? We have to remember that WWE currently has a ton of irons in the fire when it comes to charities. From Be A Star, Susan G Komen and Connor's Cure, does the WWE keep a championship on the shoulder of someone who was just arrested for drinking while driving, or do they follow the recent trend of transparency and blurring the lines between whats real, and whats scripted?

I guess we will all find out next Sunday.
