According to a few sources, Jack Swagger has backstage heat on him due to a number of failed marijuana tests. WWE does not suspend talents for failing marijuana tests, they just get issued with a $2,500 fine per offence.
This possibly explains why Swagger has been buried on WWE TV over the past several months.
On Monday's RAW, Jack Swagger told RAW General Manager AJ Lee that he needs to take some time off. Jim Ross commented on the situation via Twitter:
@realjackswagger needs a trip to the woodshed. Hes too good to be oh for 2012. Swagger can be great wait and see. Hes a #boomersooner!
WWE is currently running a storyline where Swagger is on a 9-month losing streak.
F4Wonline.com reports that Kaitlyn was not supposed to win the Divas battle royal on RAW two weeks ago where she became the new #1 contender. Apparently they botched the match as Eve Torres was scheduled to win. After Eve defeated Kaitlyn on RAW last night and since she won NBC's Stars Earn Stripes reality show, speculation is that she will be winning the Divas Title soon.
As seen in their match last night, Kaitlyn went down holding her stomach towards the end. She tweeted the following:
"Speaking of hugs... I could really use one after @EveMarieTorres got me right in the ovaries. #ThatsGonnaLeaveAMark"
