These men, they hurt me.
RVD tested positive once before and I gave him a slap on the wrist. It's pot, it isn't a big deal, but I asked him to tone down the usage. I chose to fine him this time to try to get the message across. I upset RVD, as well as Flip Gordon and Brian Pillman Jr, his proteges.
Now Big Dave was a tough one. I chose to fine him, which is the same course of action I took when Cortez pissed hot. Dave took the fine in stride and nothing noteworthy happened.
