Stephanie McMahon's Reaction To Nude Photos Surfacing On WWE.com

WWE's live events website (www.wwelivetour.com) remains offline after nude images were published in the photo gallery on Wednesday.

The website featured an unmoderated section where fans are permitted to upload photos taken at live events. A nude photo of former WWE Diva Tiffany from her Playboy modeling days was uploaded to the website, garnering attention online. More tawdry images were uploaded including a graphic still of Chyna's s genitalia from her 2004 adult film 1 Night in China, a photo depicting TNA Wrestling broadcasters Mike Tenay and Taz looking on with approval, and a photo of The Miz with lettering reading "I'd fap to that."

Stephanie McMahon, who oversees the website, called an emergency meeting upon learning of the situation. "Everyone was said to be blaming everyone else," according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

TNA is exposed even more on their bullshit.........

– Though he may no longer actively compete, Hulk Hogan still commands among the highest salaries in the professional wrestling industry.

While discussing TNA’s decision to renew their contract with Hogan on the October 5 episode of Wrestling Observer Live, Dave Meltzer stated that the organization pays the wrestling legend $35,000 per television appearance—potentially totaling over $2 million per year.

TNA regularly discloses financial information to Meltzer, hence his knowledge of Hogan’s salary.

TNA's entire business model is fucked up. Someone needs to topple that shit and start from scratch.

And with any company/business, changes have to be made from the ownership on down. And since the Carter's are willing to pay someone $2 million a year to do absolutely nothing and discredit the company, then I take it they're fine with the direction of TNA and the bleeding of money from Panda. I guess, changing the booking won't do anything to save TNA. The Carter's have to release the company in order for someone with wrestling sense to make it somewhat respectable and hopefully it lasts long enough to save it.

When Heyman was in talks and he gave his business plan on how he would run the company, I guess the Carter's didn't want to turn their pet project over to a Jew. The one man who is left in this industry that a majority of the masses respect, they won't let him turn the company over into a positive instead of a negative on the bank account. He may not have even asked for the checkbook, he may have asked for stock in Panda and entire of creative control of TNA, and they didn't want to do that. The Carter's are keeping TNA on life support and watching it slowly grow old and die with no respect.

Colt Cabana stated during an interview with Pitch.com that he has not heard back from WWE officials since working two tryout matches for the organization in August.

"They won't return my calls or anything," he tells Justin Kendall. "It’s pretty weird, man. I don’t get it. Nobody was really receptive. It's just like they wanted to ignore it. I think it's because Punk is such a rebel that ... they were able re-sign Punk, but I think to kind of stick it to him, they don’t want to talk to his friend."

He is asked whether he had that feeling when he worked the tryout matches.

"Nah," Cabana responded. "It didn’t seem like. All of the wrestlers and all of the personalities and all of the personnel, they love me. They get it. I think there’s just a group of people who don’t get me or don’t want to get me. Unfortunately, that keeps me away from an opportunity, but at the same time, I think the answer was so obvious to put me on TV and capitalize on it.

"At the same time, I think it’s really nice that my fans are really gathering around me and supporting me and continuing me in wrestling without WWE. A lot of people say that you can only be successful if you’re in WWE, and I’m a great case and point where when it’s all said and done, to be a great wrestler doesn’t mean that you have to be a WWE Champion or WWE superstar."

-- Maria Kanellis stated this afternoon on Twitter that she would only consider returning to WWE if she is given the opportunity to compete for a women's championship.

"I have only one thing in my life that I regret and thats not getting to really fight for the Woman's Championship. If I ever come back it would be for a belt," she wrote in a response to a query regarding a possible return to the organization.

WWE is attempting to have storylines "ripped from the headlines" in their shows, and the current angle of the RAW roster "walking out" on Triple H is referencing the Wall Street protests.

Some tweets that were re-tweeted by the company on Friday include Wade Barrett saying, "#OccupyRaw until our safety has been secured." Dolph Ziggler said, "Those dirty hippies on wall street have the right idea....We should #OccupyRAW until we get what we want! #TripleHout"

My daughters and I are humbled and grateful. If Eddie was here today, he would have had a feast of all his fav foods. He always knew how to have fun and celebrate his bday!!!"

Chavo wrote, "Today is Eddie's birthday. 44yrs old. I miss him very much! I know many of u do too. Let's celebrate in his honor! Missed but not forgotten!"

"Eddie, As the best who said it..."VIVA LA RAZA!"

"In honor of Eddie's birthday, I'm gonna frogsplash the 1st person to piss me off today!"

Vince McMahon recently made the decision to announce the real weights of WWE Superstars instead of worked weights.

In light of news that WWE Chief Operating Officer Triple H has vowed to not step down from running the Raw Supershow, Christian has spearheaded an effort by various Superstars, Divas, referees, announcers and crew members to travel to Oklahoma City on Monday and stage a "Solidarity Rally" in the backstage parking lot of the Chesapeake Energy Arena prior to the show. The contingent, which consists of those who walked out on Triple H this past Monday night, tell WWE.com that they will not return to the Raw Supershow or step into the venue to perform until Triple H relinquishes control.

Triple H stated earlier in a video interview that John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus and Big Show will headline Monday night's telecast.

"Beyond that, I might not have referees, I might not have announcers, I might not have cameramans. Quite frankly, I don't know what's going to happen," he said. "We'll see what we come up with on Monday. Hell, they might all show up and I won't let anyone back in."

TMZ.com has an article up right now with the headline "Brock Lesnar Signs New Deal with WWE". They confirm what we had reported and that is that Brock Lesnar will be featured in the WWE '12 video game.

The TMZ.com article notes: After SEVEN YEARS apart, UFC pain machine Brock Lesnar is getting back into business with the company that put him on the map -- WWE -- in a deal that will make him the "featured star" in a brand new video game. The website reports that the people developing WWE 12' approached Lesnar back in January and asked for permission to use his name and likeness in the game and the advertising campaign. Brock apparently loved the idea but had to clear it with UFC President Dana White first. White told TMZ: "I love WWE and I have nothing but love for Vince McMahon -- I'm totally OK with Brock being in the game."

Beth Phoenix: “i have my signs ready with my message written loud n clear.”

John Morrison: “Wonder if HHH & his stooges will try to censor our signs at the #Rally like they censor signs at RAW/Smackdown TV tapings… HHH’s stooges are anyone who didn’t walk out last week on RAW- I hope Cena/Punk/Sheamus/Orton man up and join our rally on Monday”

Former WWE Star Tomko Caught Injecting Oxycodone In Restaurant Bathroom

TMZ.com reports that Travis "Tyson" Tomko, 38, was arrested in Florida on Monday after law enforcement discovered the former WWE star injecting himself with stolen pain medicine while hiding inside the bathroom of a Chili's restaurant.

He is accused of robbing a CVS Pharmacy of 210 tablets of Oxycodone on Monday. A pharmacist claims Tomko threatened to attack him unless he was supplied with "several bottles" of Oxycodone.

The pharmacist complied and Tomko left with 210 tablets of the powerful painkiller. Tomko, however, claimed he did not threaten the pharmacist

According to the police report obtained by TMZ, Tomko went to a nearby Chili's restaurant, where he allegedly injected 178 "crushed up and melted down" pills into his system while spending 30 to 40 minutes in a restroom.

After police were informed of his whereabouts, Tomko was arrested and taken into custody on a robbery charge. He allegedly told police that he has a "severe drug problem." One officer says Tomko had "needle marks and blood running down his arm." He also flushed "something" down the toilet.

Tomko was taken to a nearby hospital and subequently transported to a nearby jail, where he was booked for robbery. He's currently behind bars in St. Johns County Jail -- bond was set at $7,500.

Brock Lesnar Expects To Wrestle One More Match For WWE

Wrestler turned mixed martial artist Brock Lesnar says in an interview with ESPN.com that he expects to wrestle one more match for WWE.

"I think I will. I think under the right circumstances I will," he responds to Jon Robinson's query regarding one final WWE match. "I think if Vince McMahon and I were able to sit down at the same dinner table and break some bread that we could come up with some kind of game plan. At the end of the day, I'm an ultimate fighter. That's who I am and that's who I'll always be. I was an entertainer but at the end of the day, I'm still as real as it gets. I think a lot of things have to fall in the right places for something like that to happen."

Lesnar is asked who he would like to wrestle of talent he never had a match with; he responds "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.

"Ironically it's probably the guy that walked out on me. The guy that took his ball and went home. A guy that I was supposed to face and I think that he was just plain downright scared to get in the ring with me because he was one of those guys that was on top and saw a huge threat in Brock Lesnar at the time. That's "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. I worked with everybody and anybody that was anybody there and if I came back, I think the guy that I would come back to fight is "Stone Cold" Steve Austin."

Rumors surfaced last year about Lesnar possibly facing The Undertaker at WrestleMania. He comments on how the match would have been like.

"I was a true wrestler. I was a Division I national champion. I came into the business wanting one thing and one thing only, and that was to be the champion, and I wasn't going to let anybody stand in my way. I think there was one guy that had a problem with that and that was Undertaker. If I were to have gotten in the ring with him I would have ripped his arm off and f------ beat him with it."

The firing of Jim Ross by John Laurinaitis on Monday night’s RAW Supershow was not in the final script and most people backstage had no idea that it was going to happen.

It’s also believed Ross didn’t know about the angle either. It was noted that JR’s wife could be seen at ringside, looking excited as he entered the ring for the segment.

Ross told a fan on Twitter today that it was embarrassing for his wife and that they both were “blindsided.”

Regarding last night’s show, it’s said that what ended up airing was almost nowhere near what was originally wrote. Everything on last night’s show was re-written more than once.
