As reported earlier today, Paige has been suspended from WWE for 60 days due to her second violation of the talent wellness policy. Paige’s father Ricky Knight took to Facebook today and revealed that his daughter Paige was just suspended by WWE again for painkillers as she deals with a long-term neck injury. Knight says Paige was prescribed the pills. He wrote:
“ok here we go again yes i know about my daughters suspended once again she has not failed a drugs test.
My daughter has had a long term neck injury which imo has not been dealt with. i have ask my daughter to return to UK For help with this injury as help and direction in the USA Has not been forthcoming imo. She has been in pain and out of in ring action for a fair while now and has been prescribed pain killers which apparently is against the wellness program. i feel my daughter has been let down big time in the USA and the proper care and advice needed in the position she has been in has not happened to say i am pissed off with the situation is an understatement, this is my statement i am not open to questions thank you for your cooperation.”
Paige’s mother Saraya Knight responded to Ricky’s post via her own Facebook page, noting that she wishes Paige would just come home. She also wrote:
“sometimes letting out a scream just doesn’t sound loud enough, banging your head against a wall doesn’t reach the spot, closing down emotionally causes inner demons to surface, asking for help creates rumours, being in a sea of people but being alone, sometimes life just sucks…”
Shortly after the news of Paige’s latest suspension went public, she called out WWE for “selective enforcement” of the wellness policy.
Same shit different day. Kids..Please don't get prescriptions or doctors notes. Not acceptable.
