Del Rio was left off the SummerSlam card and was not scheduled to appear Sunday. His 30-day suspension means Del Rio will also miss SmackDown's first solo pay-per-view, Backlash, on September 11th.
Del Rio joins an elite group of stars to violate the wellness policy in 2016, which includes Roman Reigns, Konnor and Adam Rose (who was later released).
