Brit marks landmark achievement:
Paige has discussed becoming the first ever NXT Women's Champion...
"To be the first NXT Women's Champion is such an honor. It's so overwhelming that it hasn't fully sunk in yet. Emma gave me a heck of a match and I have so much respect for her. We made history. I still can't believe I can say that I've made history in WWE. I cried and cried when I won it and the support from everyone has been crazy. I'm getting goose bumps and teary-eyed just talking about it."
WWE take heat for Wrestler's downfall:
Friends of DT Porter who has been charged with murder (See yesterday) say his time with WWE changed him for the worse...
"I know the past few months he's been a mess. Since his release, he was always talking about how f-cked up the developmental system is. His release also really hit him hard. I'm not saying it's the WWE's fault he went crazy, but he was a different person after he got released than before he was signed."
He went on to say that while in Developmental he was hurt, and the coaching staff and fellow workers bullied him for ''Milking the injury''...
"He felt obligated to return, but he knew the writing was on the wall with the treatment he was getting while injured. He was constantly ribbed while he was out and after he came back.''
The friend said that he had recently been trying to get McGhee to move back to St. Louis and that McGhee had become even more depressed the last couple of months after his wife left him. McGhee had also lost his nephew a few months ago.
"A couple of us in St. Louis kept trying to get him to move back. He didn't have any real friends in Florida, just a couple of cousins."

Scott Hall talks the ''Curtain call'' incident:
"As far as the infamous curtain call it wasn't planned, I had my match with hunter and it was one of the best matches I had in my career. Pat Patterson was the booker at the time and he pulled me and Hunter aside, gave us some ideas and we followed them and the match was great. There was an intermission when they set up the cage for Kev and Shawn's match and Vince told me to meet him in his office in Madison Square Garden and when I was in there talking to him Shawn came strolling in and said after the match he wanted Hunter and myself to come out, and Vince went along with it. We had permission, it wasn't some kind of outlaw renegade move to hurt the company, which is what everybody seems to say. For me, I felt the responsibility to go out there and say good bye to the fans at MSG, and thank you for supporting me all of these years. That is the last time the four of us have ever been together at one time."

Heat on The Shield:
More has emerged on the backstage heat on The Shield members Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns, and the ramifications on the relationship between Vince McMahon and Triple H. Rollins had a falling out with the Big Show, not much else is known about why, but the major issue was with Reigns, He is said to have called Randy Orton out after the viper botched a spot during a match.
Vince demanded that action be taken against them, but Triple H as with Daniel Bryan, decided that the story line momentum they were building with The Shield should not be derailed by punishing them for backstage issues, and refused. This led to a power struggle in the back, with Triple H having to fight to maintain The Shield's favourable booking.
That heat is said to have dissipated now after the great match they had at Money In The Bank.

TNA champ talks TNA's financial problems:
Chris Sabin said...
''I've seen the company change, management actually, many times. Just throughout the years but that's just how it's always been. Writers change, people's jobs change, people come and go but it is weird every time because you get used to working with someone and use to seeing someone and then they're not there anymore. So it's like ahhh well what's it gonna be like when the next group of guys that are coming in? So you got to pick it up and start over with that too but I've seen it happen many times and luckily I have seemed to stuck around the entire time so hopefully I can continue to stick around."
