Dave Meltzer found the ire of RAW Superstar Nia Jax after his comments about Roman Reigns and the treatment he underwent for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia. (h/t WrestlingInc)
The audio clip, featured below by Pro Wrestling Sheet’s Ryan Satin, captures Meltzer saying, “There was an NHL player who had the same thing [Roman Reigns] had in the 2007 season who did not miss one game. He played every game while on this, and hockey is a pretty damn demanding sport, so everyone’s different. He actually said the pill was oral chemotherapy, but I don’t think it was.”
Reigns’ cousin Nia Jax unleashed her fury on Meltzer after she caught wind of his speculation. Jax wrote, “Dave Meltzer is a piece of s–t. The fact that u make statements about people’s health, when u have zero knowledge about it is ridiculous. If u do have access 2 superstars PERSONAL medical info, that is a HUGE violation of HIPAA & I’m sure that’s not the case. So shut ur mouth.”

Speculating about storylines, upcoming matches and locker room “heat” is one thing … but Meltzer saying Roman isn’t telling the truth about his cancer treatment is not ok. Many take his word as gospel and to speculate on such a matter is irresponsible.

On the Reigns treatment, there are different options that include a pill that is oral chemo and that is what he said he was taking and there’s no reason not to believe that, so I stand corrected on that. .
