Robert Roode Suspension Caused Major Change To WWE TLC Card

It was reported earlier this week that both Robert Roode and Primo Colon had been suspended for 30 days by WWE after violating WWE’s Wellness Policy.

Roode was last seen in November when he was stretchered out of the arena following a brutal beatdown by Roman Reigns, which culminated in Roode having a table tipped onto him.

According to Dave Meltzer, prior to Roode’s suspension he and tag partner Dolph Ziggler were booked to take on The New Day for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships at TLC, but plans were changed following the suspension.

There is still no word on what Roode or Colon’s Wellness Policy violations were, but as it was the first time for both, their suspensions will only last 30 days, so the pair won’t be able to wrestling until next decade…not that Colon was going to.

New Day vs. The Revival is one of three tag title matches on the TLC card, which you can see below.
