WWE is a tough place to survive for most Superstars as the demands of the business, including the gruelling schedule, and the cut-throat competition to reach the top, can make or break a WWE Superstar.

WWE Chairman Vince McMahon has complete control over the actions of the Superstars that work for him, and is known to not tolerate a Superstar stepping out of line. McMahon has often fined or sent home Superstars for things that they've done that does not help the business in any way.

Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens have been real-life friends for a long time, having come through the wrestling business to the WWE. They've had some memorable feuds, while also teaming up together as a tag team on WWE.

Owens and Zayn were sent home during WWE's European tour in 2017 due to disciplinary reasons, and missed 5 SmackDown Live events in that tour.

The duo apparently went against what the creative team had decided for them for a SmackDown show, when they were feuding with New Day and were to get a beating from the babyface faction, as per Pro Wrestling Sheet.

They did not do so, leaving the ring before it happened which resulted in WWE sending Zayn and Owens home.

But that hasn't seemed to have affected their WWE future as Owens is feuding for the WWE Championship against Kofi Kingston, while Sami Zayn has been running his mouth on RAW. Zayn even had a title opportunity on SmackDown recently when he faced off against Kingston and AJ Styles for the WWE title.

Rosa Mendes was a part of the Diva Search, and despite not winning the competition she was offered a WWE contract. She mainly worked as an enhancement talent as well as a manager for other Superstars before becoming a WWE correspondent, and then retiring from the WWE.

During a European tour in 2013, Mendes was sent home from the tour and WWE made this statement: "Milena Roucka (Rosa Mendes) left the international tour for personal reasons".

On the night that Daniel Bryan announced his retirement in 2016, an incident when the Superstars and Vince McMahon were returning backstage turned out to be a bad one for O'Neil.

O'Neil tugged Vince McMahon's arm while exiting, which led to him being suspended for 90 days which was later cut to 60 days..

Titus doesn't seem to understand what he did wrong, but he says that the incident is in the past: “I still don't understand it. I literally put me my hand out and said, 'Ladies first.' So I don't know what the wrong time is to say, 'Ladies first' or the right time. It's water under the bridge. It happened and I took ownership of it regardless if I was right, wrong, or indifferent, or if the situation could have been handled different. It happened.

"I served my suspension and it's over with. It goes back to the fact that I know who I am and I know what I did and I know why I did it and God has rewarded me tenfold," said O'Neil in an interview with Lillian Garcia (H/T Cageside Seats).

But O'Neil is still with the WWE and has been involved in various charities with WWE.
