WWE Champion RVD and Sabu Arrested
HANGING ROCK — Two wrestling superstars from Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Entertainment may be tough in the ring, but they didn’t have enough muscle to escape drug charges after being stopped Sunday night by the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
Robert Alex Szatowski, aka WWE and ECW champion Rob Van Dam, and Terry Michael Brunk, aka Sabu, also a former ECW champion, were pulled over on U.S. 52, near Patrick Street in Hanging Rock at about 10:15 p.m. The two were apparently driving from their performances at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena earlier in the evening. According to the OSHP, Szatowski was initially stopped for speeding. When troopers approached his vehicle, they smelled marijuana and performed a search. Troopers found the wrestler in possession of 18 grams of marijuana and five Vicodin, prescription pain pills. Brunk was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia and also had nine pills that were not immediately identifiable, but were known to be controlled substances, according to the OSHP. Both were cited and posted bond at the scene. Szatowski, of Battle Creek, Mich., has had a long, successful career with both the WWE and ECW. In addition to being the current champion of both, he has been intercontinental champion six times, hardcore champion four times and has been a part of several championship tag team duos. He is scheduled to wrestle tonight on WWE Raw and is also wrestling Tuesday night to retain his WWE and ECW titles during the “Extreme Rules Match” on the Sci-Fi channel. Brunk, who lists his hometown as Bombay, India, on the WWE Web site, has also had a successful career with the ECW, earning world heavyweight championship titles two times and tag team championship honors three times. Both Brunk and Szatowski are scheduled to appear at 10 a.m. Thursday in Ironton Municipal Court. Both wrestlers won their matches last night in Huntington, W.Va. Van Dam defeated the Big Show and Sabu defeated Justin Credible. --------------------- 13. DISCIPLINE FOR VIOLATION OF LAW Any Talent who is arrested, convicted or who admits to a violation of law relating to use, possession, purchase, sale or distribution of prohibited drugs will be in material breach of contract and subject to immediate dismissal. --------------------- I guess RVD and Sabu will be getting a call from Johnny Laurinaitis soon telling them "creative has nothing for you"... |

Re: WWE Champion RVD and Sabu Arrested
It's no shock to me that he smokes weed.
It'll be interesting to see if WWE follow their new drugs policy and release one of their top tier talents. I doubt they want to give someone like RVD away to TNA (even though TNA will book him horribly and he'll become just another guy after 2 weeks). |

Re: WWE Champion RVD and Sabu Arrested
back when in my teens when i used to love ECW, RVD was always known as a stoner. Infact, he was on the cover of High Times at one point. This was bound to happen.

Brunk, who lists his hometown as Bombay, India, [/ QUOTE ] Sabu is actually from Michigan. I found it pretty funny that they research the wrestlers real names but than used their WWE hometown. If The Ultimate Warrior was arrested would the news report say he was from parts unkown? If WWE decided to suspend/fire either of these guys it would basically kill ECW. To any Sabu hatters please watch his old ECW matches, he was incredible and is still decent now. |
