WWE released an official statement on the issue and mostly to respond to a report from the NY Post implying the WWE was racist for suspending him.
Also backed down a bit on the 90 days punishment and instead got 60 days which still keeps him out of Mania.
Quote:
O'Neil had nothing to do with race and everything to do with unprofessional conduct," WWE told the Post in a statement. They added that Titus "acknowledged the gravity of his mistake" in a text message, writing:
"I feel like s--t now so if you have to let me go, I understand. Stupid mistake."
