There is an organization starting up called New Era Fighting (NEF). They are trying to merge mixed martial arts with storytelling, sort of UFC meets the WWE. They are currently accepting applications for fighters and models. I think this has great potential if they pick people with physical and acting talent.

The Show Must Go On
Blood and Guts from Triple H
By THE LILSBOYS
JANUARY 11, 2007
There are some wrestling matches you never forget. It might be because of one big stunt, a passing of the torch moment or simply that the bout was just so damn good from start to finish. D-Generation X v Rated RKO at WWE's New Year's Revolution PPV will always stick in our heads for another reason - the guts of Triple H.
If any regular person tore a quadriceps tendon they would barely even be able to get to the phone to call a doctor, let alone finish a wrestling match in front of thousands of fans. But that is exactly what Triple H did - battling through what must have been unbearable pain for five minutes to finish his bout.
Ironically it came six years to the day since he returned from an eight-month lay-off with an identical injury, and it was initially feared this one may end his career.
The good news is that although The Game will miss a lot of action including WrestleMania, he should be back in time for August's SummerSlam....You can read the rest of the article here.

Hypocrite
This is really some f*cked up sh*t. These holier-than-thou, walk-on-water Republicans can find a way to justify anything to fit their agendas. I guess it's ok since it's Cheney's daughter...

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.

President Bush. President Clinton. President Bush. President Clinton
Hillary Clinton finally declares 2008 US election bid.
By Geoff Elliott
The 20-year unbroken run of two presidential dynasties could be about to get longer following yesterday's long-awaited announcement that senator Hillary Clinton - wife of former president Bill Clinton - is running for the White House.
"I'm in," she declared in a video posted on her website, using the internet to declare her candidacy, as did her chief rival, Barack Obama, just a few days before.
According to the polls, Senator Clinton is the Democrats' front-running candidate for the 2008 presidential race. Much of the attention is focused on the fact that Senator Clinton would be the first woman president and that Senator Obama would be the first black president.
But there's also the fact that if Senator Clinton wins in 2008, the White House will be in just two families' hands for nearly a quarter of a century... You can read the rest of the article here.
