WRESTLING ace Roman Reigns has been banned from WWE for 30 days.
The wrestling community has been left stunned by the revelation heavyweight champ Reigns — whose real name is Joe Anoa'i — will have to sit out for the next month.
The 31-year-old, from Pensacola, Florida, US, had been on a lengthy winning streak and was wowing the sport.
But World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) said today it had banned Reigns for "violating their wellness policy".
SORRY: Reigns apologised on Twitter
It would not reveal what the violation was but it could be anything from marijuana use to something as serious as steroids.
The ban will come into effect immediately.
Reigns, who has been wrestling professionally since 2010, took to Twitter to apologise to his fans.
The dad-of-one wrote: "I apologize [sic] to my family, friends and fans for my mistake in violating WWE's wellness policy. No excuse, I own it."
TALENT: Reigns has been in form this year
It is Reigns' first violation of the policy.
He beat AJ Styles twice this year.
