James Ellsworth Suspended On WWE SmackDown Live

James Ellsworth has been rolling with Carmella for quite some time now, and he’s had a big impact on her career. Ellsworth has helped Carmella win matches since they joined forces, and he made sure that she became the first ever Miss Money in the Bank when he climbed the ladder at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view and grabbed the briefcase himself before handing it to her.

On this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown Live, Carmella and James Ellsworth made their way down to the ring for a promo, and Carmella talked about her Money in the Bank briefcase. This week’s episode of SmackDown also featured a Women’s Championship match between Lana and Naomi, and after Naomi made her way down to the ring, and one thing led to another, General Manager Daniel Bryan also made his way to the ring.

Bryan wanted to make sure that there was no interference in the title match, so he banned James Ellsworth from the building. Ellsworth laughed, and then Bryan told him that he’s being fined $10,000, and he shouldn’t expect a paycheck for 30 days, because he’s suspended.

There you have it folks. If you’re hoping to see James Ellsworth on SmackDown Live over the next 30 days, then you may be disappointed, unless of course he finds a way to get around the suspension.

Hopefully SmackDown Live will survive without Ellsworth. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.
