"WWE has officially incorporated a ban of the drug carisoprodol, trade name Soma, into its talent wellness policy. Though not yet noted on WWE's corporate website, the amendment has reportedly already gone into effect.
The amendment was attributed to "issues" that took place with the WWE talent over the weekend. A party drug that is popular with a "certain segment of the talent base," according to F4W, there have been numerous incidents in which wrestlers passed out in public due to overuse of the drug. In a 2007 interview, former WWE Diva Terri Runnels told TMZ, "I've personally seen a WWE Superstar nearly die right in front of me after taking 13 Somas…while still behind the wheel of his car!"
While muscle relaxers, including carisoprodol, had previously been prohibited for "non-medical use," the new amendment reportedly bans use of the drug even when prescribed by a doctor."
