— According to a source, Alex Riley’s on-air association with The Miz pretty much saved him from being fired by WWE following his DUI arrest last Wednesday in Tampa, Florida. He was said to be pretty nervous for several days, however. WWE did not officially announce any punishment. Riley also worked the Survivor Series pay-per-view and Monday’s RAW. Basically, he caught a lucky break. For those who haven’t seen it before, you can click here to view Riley’s sad-face mugshot.
