Jackson reportedly failed for testing positive for high levels of synthetic testosterone but avoided suspension as he had a valid prescription from his doctor.
Mexican wrestling publication Super Luchas Magazine reports that Ezekiel Jackson recently failed the WWE Wellness Policy. Jackson reportedly failed for testing positive for high levels of synthetic testosterone. However, Jackson avoided the usual 30 day suspension for a first violation as he was able to provide a valid prescription from his doctor for taking the unnamed banned substance. The report from Super Luchas claims to solve the mystery of the third WWE superstar who failed the WWE Wellness Policy in quick succession after Randy Orton (who is currently serving his 60 day suspension for his second violation) and Cody Rhodes. Although in the case of the latter, just like Jackson, Rhodes was able to provide a valid prescription from his doctor for the banned drug he was taking and he also avoided suspension, though was forced to drop the WWE Intercontinental Championship to Christian at WWE Extreme Rules when it looked certain he was going to be suspended. Jackson failing the WWE Wellness Policy should be considered as rumour for the time being however as Super Luchas also exclusively reported that Randy Orton had failed the Wellness Policy for taking Dianabol, a claim that is still denied by most WWE sources.
