5 Wrestlers In Vince McMahon's Doghouse Right Now

We don't have to don our detective hats to hard-boil down the source of discord here.

Alicia Fox turned up intoxicated to a WWE house show earlier this year, in no condition to perform. This went undetected by Arn Anderson, apparently, who couldn't tell the difference - Alicia Fox best worker in wrestling confirmed - and the acrimonious incident led to Arn's firing. Michael Hayes was only suspended for actually enabling Rosa Mendes' struggles with alcohol, which lends credence to the old stories of Arn and Vince's philosophical opposition.

Per the latest whispers, Fox has since gone AWOL. According to Cagematch.net, Fox last appeared for the company at a February 10 live event, and rejected WWE's offer of rehabilitation. It's a grim story, and while it is on brand to criticise WWE for its business and creative practises, the company appears to have acted with the utmost professionalism throughout by making decisions - and attempting to make decisions - in the interests of Alicia's wellbeing.

Alcoholism and substance abuse is a subject close to home for your writer, and I gather many others. I hope Fox overcomes it.
