NWA owner confirms takeover:

''I am very excited for the future of the NATIONAL WRESTLING ALLIANCE. As everyone knows by now - Billy Corgan and I have agreed on principle regarding his acquisition of the NWA brand. This decision comes after many weeks of negotiation and deep consideration. Although Billy Corgan may be a fresh face to wrestling - he is an extremely successful businessman and has a deep admiration and respect for the NWA. He is also putting together a very strong team. With the capital and business acumen that Billy Corgan brings to the table - I am confident that he has the ability to take the NWA to the next level. And I have promised to do all I can to help him succeed. I ask you to join me in supporting the new NWA regime in the future. I am not leaving wrestling - but after four years at the helm of the NWA - I look forward to stepping back and allowing someone new and passionate to take control of this great and noble organization. Thank you to everyone who has supported the NWA over the years and during my tenure. I also want to publicly thank Billy Corgan for his confidence and respect for this iconic brand. The next few months are going to be really exciting for the National Wrestling Alliance - but most of all for the fans!''

Diva stalked:

Carmella says she has been getting stalked...

"I had like this crazy stalker. When I first moved out there I had no where to go. Like, I had no where to go so I was just staying in a car. Maybe about a week or so, so it wasn't crazy but um... or like staying on my friends couch or like living off of you know Easy Mac and just like whatever I could do to just try to get by. Then like I said when I was living out there, I did have this crazy stalker at the time but nothing came of it. But I ended up first like they hacked into my phone and my everything and I ended up going to the police because at the time... so I literally just made the cover of the Lakers Girls calendar, which was kind of a big deal because they only had two calendars, I was like the cover girl or whatever. The day after was when I had like got these phone calls from this guy that was stalking me and so I went to the police in LA and I'm like, 'so I just got the cover of this calendar.' I was afraid I was going to lose my job because this guy was just like being crazy and they were like, 'mam, this is LA, we can't do anything for you.' So I was like okay... it was just like it was like it was nothing... I'm knocking on wood I have not heard from him or anything."
