4. A Titus Sighting Sort Of

WWE.com

Monday night, we saw Titus O€™Neil return to Raw alongside Natalya in a commercial joking that Titus finishes all of Nattie€™s things, such as her novels, her hairspray and even her sentences. The ad was for anti-smoking group Truth, urging young people to be the generation that ends smoking.

So why is such a worthwhile, noble ad a €œdown?€

Titus O€™Neil is by all accounts a good person, an award-winning father of the year, a great ambassador for WWE and an all-around asset to the company. He also just finished a 60-day suspension for playfully grabbing Vince McMahon€™s arm at the end of Raw when Daniel Bryan retired. O€™Neil missed the entire WrestleMania season, and WWE lost one of its few really public faces who make the company look good for grabbing Vince€™s arm.

It€™s great to see Titus, but the fact that it was in an anti-smoking ad just magnifies the mind-boggling overreaction that his punishment was.
