Former WWF star turned politician B. Brian Blair, age 52, was arrested today on several counts of child abuse following a 4 AM incident with two sons, 17 and 12.
According to an article in the St. Petersburg Times, Blair got into an argument with his oldest son, shoving and punching him before locking him what was described as a "choke" that left his son with trouble breathing. The 12 year old then ended up being choked by Blair as well. There is no word at this time what led up to the incident.
Blair is known in wrestling for being one half of The Killer Bees tag-team during the 1980's.
-- WWE issued a survey to fans on their mailing list about a PPV where the Hell In The Cell would be used in all the matches, similar to the potential all-submission match PPV, and requested feedback on potential PPV names for the event:
*WWE Hell In A Cell *WWE No Escape *WWE Lock Up *WWE Rage In A Cage
-- Porn star Trina Michaels might be getting a TNA contract following the praise of Mick Foley and Jeremy Borash. Michaels has been trying to break in to the business for a year or so now and got some praise recently for some promos she did on YouTube, which even WWE was inspired by. (Video below)
With the recent kid-friendly initiative she could likely never go to WWE, but TNA seems interested after name dropping her on iMPACT.
At the Grand Rapids TNA live show, Kurt Angle squashed the WWE return rumors. Angle announced that he loves TNA, wants to extend his contract with the company and that he will never return to the WWE again. He said he never wants to work for Vince McMahon again, despite his recent radio appearance where he said he could return to WWE if he wanted to, since his TNA contract is about to expire and he did not burn any bridges in WWE when he left.
Jeff Hardy def. Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho (Count-out) Dolph Ziggler def. The Great Khali (Disqualification) Melina def. Alicia Fox Edge def. John Morrison R-Truth & Cryme Tyme def. Ricky Ortiz, Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk def. Rey Mysterio
ROANOKE, Va. A strange brew of trickery, retribution and pure squared-circle aggression consumed SmackDown, just nine days before The Bash unleashes itself upon the WWE Universe (Full coverage).
Jeff Hardy def. Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho (count-out) (VIDEO | PHOTOS) Prior to his match with Chris Jericho, The Charismatic No. 1 Contender was confronted by World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk about their World Championship Match at The Bash (Match preview). Punk voiced no regrets about cashing in his Money in the Bank opportunity at Extreme Rules, nor with his actions in Monday Night Raws Triple Threat Match. An intense Hardy expressed his determination to take his title back at the upcoming pay-per-view. (PHOTOS)
Hardys attention then turned to Jericho. In the culmination of their heated battle, as the nine-time Intercontinental Champion was throwing Hardy back into the ring, Rey Mysterio suddenly emerged from a seat in the crowd. He attacked Jericho, driving the stunned Superstar into the ring post before returning to his seat next to two other identically dressed fans. This surprise onslaught led directly to a Hardy victory when Jericho couldnt answer the 10-count. After the bell, The Charismatic Enigma put the exclamation point on the win, hitting the disoriented Jericho with the Twist of Fate and Swanton Bomb combination.
World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk def. Rey Mysterio (VIDEO | PHOTOS) Later, Mysterio accepted the challenge from the reemerging Jericho to put his sacred mask on the line against Jerichos gold at The Bash (Match preview) (PHOTOS). The nine-time Intercontinental Champion then joined Hall of Famer Jim Ross & Todd Grisham at the broadcast table. But in a critical moment of Mysterios match with Punk, Jericho evened the score for his masked adversarys earlier attack, slamming The Master of the 619 into the steel ring post. Though Mysterio answered his 10-count, the World Champion quickly finished him off with the GTS.
After the bell, an angry Jeff Hardy charged into the ring to dispute the decision. He was clearly still seething after being stripped of the World Heavyweight Championship at Extreme Rules. But the confrontation only ended in a staredown, with Punk still walking off with the victory over Mysterio. At The Bash, things will finally come to a head when Punk and Hardy collide in a rematch. (Match preview)
Edge def. John Morrison (VIDEO | PHOTOS) The Friday Night Delight may have matched The Master Manipulator in a war of words before the bell, but The Rated-R Superstar ultimately reigned supreme, hitting the spear in the climax of their tremendously hard-fought battle. Morrison heroically fought through injured ribs, but couldnt stop the former World Champion at the finish line.
Dolph Ziggler def. The Great Khali (disqualification) (PHOTOS) While the referee was distracted, the incomparable Ziggler threw a chair toward The Great Khali before falling to the canvas as if injured. When the referee turned around, The Punjabi Playboy was holding the steel and was therefore disqualified. Once again, Ziggler appears to have outsmarted Khali, giving himself another victory over his irate adversary.
Melina def. Alicia Fox (VIDEO | PHOTOS) Melina reigned supreme over A-Fox, flipping herself downward off Alicias back and using her momentum to whip Alicia over for the pinfall. Michelle then attacked, hurling the Womens Champion from the ring before viciously kneeing her into the broadcasters table. The No. 1 contender promised to humiliate Melina at The Bash (Match preview) and become the first Diva to hold both the Divas and Womens Championships.
R-Truth & Cryme Tyme def. Ricky Ortiz, Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin (PHOTOS) Amidst mass confusion both in and outside the ring in a six-man brawl, R-Truth caught Benjamin with a powerful kick as The Gold Standard was leaping from the top rope. Truth followed up with the hurricane-like Corkscrew Elbow to prove triumphant.
Shortly after the announcement of her release on the official WWE website, Candice Michelle posted a blog on the WWE Universe site thanking company executives, current and past Divas, and male wrestlers for contributing to her five-year run in World Wrestling Entertainment. The blog was subsequently taken down as her account was disabled.
We managed to get ahold of what she wrote. Here is her blog in its entirety:

Candice Michelle had been undergoing therapy to heal her injured ankle, and according to her Twitter posts was under the impression she would return sometime this month. Reports had leaked several months ago that WWE wanted to use Candice to put over some younger divas while they could, and then release her due to her injury-prone reputation. Doctors cleared her to return this month, but she was greeted with a release by WWE which was announced just moments after Snuka's.
Candices reaction to her firing via Twitter: I'm Free to Grow!

Full details regarding Umaga's release from WWE Posted by Chris Kaufman on 06/19/2009 at 02:38 PM
Credit: F4WOnline.com
Last week, World Wrestling Entertainment announced that Edward Fatu (a/k/a Umaga) was released because he refused to Enter a drug rehabilitation facility after violating the company's Wellness Program a second time. This should explain why he was telling people, including his family, why he quit, since it was his decision to refuse to attend the rehab that was ordered. However, Fatu wasn't exactly telling the entire story regarding his dismissal from the company as he claimed his new deal (with his old deal expiring this January) was being negotiated and he was unhappy with the terms. Apparently, his unhappiness concerning the new terms of his contract made him quit six months early, if he is to be believed.
WWE's announcement came one day after the company released a statement to The Sun that all performers who violate the company's Wellness Program are reported publicly. The statement was apparently in response to a certain online report questioning whether the company was still adhering to the policy as some developmental wrestlers had reportedly been released as a result of Wellness Policy violations the week prior, but were never publicly announced.
There is some skepticism regarding the situation because the fact remains that WWE had not previously announced a drug test failure concerning Fatu, which should indicate that the company's public policy of doing so was not being completely adhered to.
WWE officials released a statement to The Sun explaining the discrepancy by saying the delay in announcing his Wellness Policy violation was "due to the unusual nature of Umaga's termination."
Fatu had one strike stemming from being named in the Signature Pharmacy scandal in August 2007, resulting in a 30-day suspension. Through a government raid, WWE officials learned he had received packages of somatropin, a growth hormone, between July and December 2006. His second strike would have been for a different drug as the company doesn't send people to rehab for growth hormone (which can't be tested for anyway) nor steroids.
There is a feeling in the locker room that management was out to get Fatu, with the idea they drug tested him when they knew there was a good chance of catching him. Also, there was some sympathy for him among talent because he was constantly informed of ideas enabling him to shine and then those decisions would change, leaving him with nothing.
As reported a few weeks ago, Sheik Abdul Bashir's contract with TNA Wrestling expires in a few weeks. There is some interest on the part of WWE in the former Daivari.
In late 2007, Daivari requested his release from the company, which was granted on October 16, 2007.

Chavo Guerrero def. Santino Marella Zack Ryder def. local competitor Eve def. Layla w/ Special Guest Referee Maria Christian, Carlito & Primo def. Jack Swagger & The Hart Dynasty
This week WWE Superstars on WGN America was packed to the brim with 13 different Superstars and Divas in action. With four hard-hitting matches, including a main event pitting the team of Christian and Unified Tag Team Champions Carlito & Primo against Jack Swagger and The Hart Dynasty, Thursday night was certainly a healthy dose of entertainment for everyone in the WWE Universe.

Chavo Guerrero def. Santino Marella (PHOTOS | WATCH) With Santino Marella and his twin sister Santina wreaking havoc on Chavo Guerrero and his aunt in recent weeks, when these two locked up on WWE Superstars, there was no love-loss between the two. The self-proclaimed Mexican Warrior controlled much of the match early on, until Santino reversed the third of the Three Amigos. The Italian Superstar then looked to hit high-risk maneuver, but was met the underside of Chavos boot, leaving him prone to the cover and pinfall by Guerrero. Despite Santino & Santina having their fun at the expense of the Guerrero family, it seems as though Chavo may have gotten the last laugh.
Zack Ryder def. local competitor (PHOTOS) After last weeks loss to Evan Bourne, Zack Ryder didnt have much to Wooo, wooo, wooo! about, but this week, the ECW Superstar redeemed himself with an impressive win. His obnoxious attitude in abundance, the Long Island native dominated his match, and when it seemed like his opponent was all but done for, Ryder didnt immediately go for the pin. Instead, the cocky Superstar lifted his competitor up hit him with the Zack Attack -- viciously driving the unlucky local athlete into his knee. As abrasive as he may be, Ryder showed that he is truly an in-ring warrior and has a bright future for himself in WWE.
Eve def. Layla w/ Special Guest Referee Maria (PHOTOS | WATCH) In exciting one-on-one Divas action with Special Guest Referee Maria, Eve once again topped Layla Thursday night. Though both Divas on the SmackDown roster and are certainly sexy, smart and powerful, the two beauties have been at each others throats for several weeks. Layla has attacked Eve on numerous occasions after falling short to her in different competitions, including a dance-off and an arm wrestling match. Well, the result of the match tonight may have been no different with the 2007 Diva Search winner getting the pin after an impressive backhand spring moonsault onto Layla. Following the match, there was no brawl that ensued and instead, at the beckoning of Maria, the English Diva and Eve shook hands. Now the question is, is this rivalry officially water under the bridge?
Christian, Carlito & Primo def. Jack Swagger & The Hart Dynasty (PHOTOS | WATCH) The main event on WWE Superstars saw three of ECWs most talented young Superstars fall just short in a battle against former ECW Champion Christian & the Unified Tag Team Champions. Much of the match saw Swagger, Tyson Kidd & David Hart Smith controlling Primo, stop one-half of the Tag Champions from making a tag. Showing themselves to be a truly cohesive unit, Swagger worked well with The Hart Dynasty, but unfortunately, one misstep by Kidd saw the tides change. Primo tagged-in his brother Carlito, and the cool Superstar quickly gained control of the match. Both Swagger and Smith attempted to sway the momentum back in their favor, but after some help from Christian & Primo clearing the ring, Carlito used the Backstabber for the win. As The Hart Dynasty and The All-American American Jack Swagger headed to the back, they knew they had let this victory slip through their fingers.
