WWE investigating Rob Van Dam and Sabu charges
By Ed Williams III

In the wake of being faced with five violations, including drug possession, by the Ohio State Highway Patrol, WWE.com reports that Rob Van Dam and Sabu arrived at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia at 1:30 p.m. today and immediately went into a meeting with Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis.
Following the meeting, Mr. Laurinaitis told WWE.com that Rob Van Dam and Sabu will be eligible to compete tonight on RAW and tomorrow night at ECW on Sci Fi while an ongoing investigation is being conducted by World Wrestling Entertainment. The two men will be appearing in court Thursday morning at Ironton Municipal Court.
According to the Ironton Tribune, Rob Van Dam and Sabu were pulled over on U.S. 52, near Patrick Street in Hanging Rock, Ohio at about 10:15 p.m. Sunday night. The two were apparently driving from their performances at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena earlier in the evening.
According to the Ohio State Police, as reported by the Ironton Tribune, Van Dam was initially stopped for speeding. When troopers approached his vehicle, they smelled marijuana and performed a search. Troopers found RVD in possession of 18 grams of marijuana and five Vicodin, prescription pain pills. Sabu 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.

Yikes kids... looks like the EXTREME duo may be in some trouble. It will be interesting to see how WWE gets through this since these two men are main eventers in ECW not to mention the fact that RVD is the current WWE & ECW champion. Now I noticed they will both be wrestling tonight and tomorrow night. On ECW's show tomorrow, both the ECW and WWE title are up for grabs when RVD takes on Edge. Now if WWE is hell bent on sticking to their drug program, don't be surprised if RVD drops both belts to Edge tomorrow night. What are the odds? What are your two cents Jackhammer and our new anonymous comment maker? I know you both have thoughts.
