Over twelve SmackDown wrestlers fined, and Johnny Ace getting heat
On Friday, October 14, 2005 at 2:01 AM EST According to Bob Ryder of 1Wrestling.com, many WWE wrestlers showed up late at the SmackDown tapings this past Tuesday. As a result, over twelve of them have have fined $500.
Already, things aren't going too well at SmackDown (backstage wise), and the fines just added more fuel to the fire. Many are pointing the finger at John Laurinaitis (Johnny Ace), since he was the one who had that "fine" rule back in WCW. Many are also blaming him with the way things have escalated with Jim Ross.
