Mele Mel Pursues WWE Career

Although he is revered in Hip-Hop circles, Mele Mel is planning to make an impact of a different kind in the world of professional wrestling.

The rapper, who was recently inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, will attempt to become the latest champion in Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Entertainment.

"I'm going to try and get some of John Cena's money [current WWE champ] and get with the WWE to do my thing," Mele Mel told AllHipHop.com "I went to the wrestling school over the summer and picked up a little bit of moves. I wanted to see if it was something that I wanted to do, other than just dreaming of wanting to be a wrestler. It's a little rough, but it's something that can be done."....source: AllHipHop.com

This is one of the dumbest decisions I have heard in a while. This man is considered a legend in hiphop and now he wants to destroy his image by getting into a wrestling ring with guys half his age and a ton more skill. I'm not sure why he would think that the WWE would be interested in him. I guess we'll have to see if I have to eat my words.

Over at magsdirect.com, I was looking for The Source magazine. Apparently they sent a cease and desist letter to Hip Hop Weekly which is another publication the can be subscribed to a magsdirect.com. The Source is accusing Hip Hop Weekly of trademark infringement.

Two former owners of The Source now work on Hip Hop Weekly and they state this on the front of their publication. Stay tuned for more drama. You can also subscribe to them at magsdirect.com.
