Lita Dating PunkDespite what she says, Lita just can't stay away from professional wrestling.
The former WWE Women's Champion has been spotted backstage at various WWE events recently. That sparked some rumors of a potential return to the business.
However, it has been revealed that those visits weren't for professional reasons. The visits were for personal reasons.
Apparently, the lead singer of the Luchagores has been dating World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk recently. The two have been spotted together backstage and at various events.
Lita was previously linked romantically to Matt Hardy and Edge.
Sid Vicious Jr DebutsIn a few years, if we get to see a man named Sid Vicious in a WWE ring, it might not be the same man that we've watched for years.
Over the weekend, Gunnar Eudy made his professional wrestling debut. Eudy is the 16 year old son of former WCW and WWE Heavyweight Champion Sid Vicious. He made his debut under a masked character named Lord Humongous, the same character that his father played during his early years in the business.
Eudy will next step into the ring with two of the most famous wrestlers of all time.
The 6'4" wrestler will team up with Scott Hall (who is close friends with Vicious) to take on his father and another wrestler. The event is to be held on September 19, 2009 in Jonesboro, Arkansas. It will be held under the Deep South Championship Wrestling banner.

Show/Khali Backstage FightA big backstage brawl between the Big Show and the Great Khali broke out over the weekend.
On Saturday, the Smackdown crew was down in Puerto Rico doing a house show. It was there when the brawl between the two giants happened.
Reports are that Show was the one to initiate the fight by taking the first punch after an argument ensued. Fortunately for Khali, he was able to block that one. The scuffle continued until Show slipped and fell to the group. Khali capitalized by jumping on top of Show before the other wrestlers jumped in to stop them. It's been said that the Undertaker, a well respected locker room leader, played a huge part in breaking up the fight.
There has been tensions between the two former world champions over the last few weeks. Show has issues with Khali due to the fact that the Punjabi Playboy has been utilizing some of his moves. Khali refuses to stop using the moves, so Show took offense.
It's been said that the general feeling backstage is that Show is to blame for the fight. No reports yet as to what punishment both wrestlers will receive for the incident.
O'Haire ArrestedSean O'Haire was arrested over the weekend.
The former WWE star was taken into custody by police in Savannah, Georgia on Sunday morning. He was charged for battery and criminal trespassing. Apparently, he attacked his girlfriend in her home.
According to police reports, O'Haire stormed downstairs and threw a fit. Armed with some harsh words and a 280 pound frame, the former WCW World Tag Team Champion physically assaulted his girlfriend.
When asked by the police officers, the girlfriend stated that she had no idea why O'Haire was so angry. She also mentioned that he's been violent with her in the past as well.
The WCW Power Plant alumni was thrown into the Chatham County Detention Center. He was released shortly after he posted a $4,600 bail.
O'Haire was released by WWE in March of 2006. Since then, he has been involved with various MMA promotions.

Shelly Martinez Discusses DrugsShelly Martinez states that recreational drugs helped save her life.
In a recent interview, Martinez states that she was hooked on prescription pills while she was working for WWE. The 29 year old Califoria native worked for WWE from 2005 through 2007. When an unnamed coworker found out, that person informed Martinez of the benefits of marijuana. She started smoking marijuana and stopped abusing the pills.
The following is what she had to say about the situation.
Quote:
| "Cannabis saved my life. I was going to die. No doubt about it. I was on the wrong path. Now, I'm healthy, happy, pain free, and here to sing the praises of how my life is so much better today because of Cannabis!" |

Angelina Love to WWEFor those of you that have not heard, Angelina Love, one of the top female wrestlers in North America, was released by TNA not too long ago due to issues with her work visa.
While the consensus believes that she will eventually sign a new deal with TNA once things are resolved, there's still that slight window of opportunity for WWE to swoop in and steal her away.
Angelina Love, a former TNA Knockouts Champion, is a Canadian citizen who resides in Toronto, which is the city where Raw is scheduled to be next Monday night (show will be hosted by Trish Stratus).
The 9 year veteran of the business is expected to be backstage at the event (either as a guest of WWE itself or as a guest of one of the many wrestlers there that she is friends with).
While no official talks have been sheduled between Angelina Love and WWE, it would not come as a surprise to anyone if management had a few words with her to gauge her interest.
Signing Angelina Love would be huge for WWE.
When word got out that former TNA Knockouts Champion Gail Kim was leaving the company for WWE, it was pretty devastating to the fans.
Gail Kim had been the centerpiece of a female division that was unarguably superior to the WWE's female division.
Losing her was viewed as a major blow at the time (of course, TNA managed to keep the division hot with the depth of talented female performers).
Much like Gail Kim before her, Angelina Love established herself as the centerpiece of the Knockouts division.
If WWE were to sign her away from TNA, they would be delivering what is expected to be a severe blow to their competition.
The Knockouts division will find a way to continue to thrive (someone else will step it up), but it would not be the same without Angelina Love.
Aside from wanting to hurt the competition, signing Angelina Love, a former developmental wrestler for the company, would strengthen the WWE women's division.
Angelina Love, whose real name is Angel Williams, brings a lot to the table.
As an in-ring performer, she's solid. She understands how to work an audience in between moves. As a personality, Angelina Love knows how to work the mic and draw heel heat.
As an overall performer, Angelina Love is exactly what WWE hopes that Maryse will some day become.
She would immediately join Mickie James and Gail Kim as the veterans who know how to work and can carry the lesser skilled divas in the company.
With her tremendous ass...ets, she could be quite useful to the company for photoshoots and various promotions.
WWE/TNA WD AwardsOn a side note, I have decided to host monthly awards for WD. Those will be about WWE Superstars, WWE Divas, TNA Superstars, TNA Knockouts. During the week-end, there will be a special newsie announcing every category + every nominee.
