The WWE recently suspended Alberto Del Rio, Paige and Eva Marie for 30 days after violating the company's Wellness Policy. The latest rumors give updates on the substances the three were busted using.

Del Rio and Paige were the ones first suspended on August 17 while Eva Marie's suspension was announced the next day. All three superstars were given 30-day suspensions because it was their first violation of the Wellness Policy.

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Radio (subscription required), the WWE conducted random drug tests following the news of Brock Lesnar's failed tests under the United States Anti-Doping Agency. Del Rio, Paige and Eva Marie tested positive and it is expected that more suspensions are coming.

Meltzer noted Del Rio and Paige did not test positive for the same substance with the Mexican wrestler possibly leaving the WWE in September. He has an out-clause in his contract and he is expected to exercise that option.

On the other hand, Paige has several years on her deal and the WWE is not planning to release her. There are several reports saying that Triple H is against Del Rio dating the female superstar because of his partying ways.

As for Eva Marie, she reportedly tested positive for Adderall, the same substance Roman Reigns was caught using in July. According to TMZ Sports, Ms. All Red Everything is insisting that she had prescriptions to use Adderall.

However, Eva Marie failed to address it and submit the documents on time which caused his violation. She is planning to appeal the suspension but she already started serving it. She is also very disappointed that the violation happened.

"I am disappointed that this suspension has occurred, yet understand and respect that WWE upholds their Wellness Policy to the letter and won't compromise on its integrity. I violated policy by not turning in portions of required paperwork in the time frame WWE Medical deemed timely. I look forward to my return," she told TMZ in an interview.

The WWE is rumored to be continuing the random drug tests on their superstars and it is for the better. Many fans were speculating that the company is using the Wellness Policy for storyline purposes. But Meltzer confirmed that the WWE has no plans to incorporate angles with their substance-abuse ruling.
