Konnan provided an update on WWE star Rey Mysterio during the MLW Radio show on MLW.com. "Somebody seems to think that Rey was suspended for the wellness policy," Konnan said. "Absolutely incorrect.

"He is dealing with a family situation right now and he does have permission to be out.  They know what's going on and he will be back soon. He is not injured. He doesn't have any drug issues - and I'm not covering for him because he's my boy… but he's cool, he'll back soon."

The new episode of the free weekly podcast MLW Radio is available for free at MLW.com and on iTunes (search: MLW Radio). Archives include conversations with the Ultimate Warrior, MVP, Billy Corgan, among others.

Powell's POV: There was some early speculation that Mysterio was on his way out of the company when he was pulled from the house shows, but the story came out quickly that it was a family situation. Obviously, it's a private matter, as both Konnan and WWE officials are not releasing the details.
