"This Wrestling Life" Documentary Collects Misfits
Ever notice that whenever you go to an independent wrestling show, there's always someone around with a video camera recording everything? And why wouldn't there be, really, considering the carnival freak show that is wrestling? A wrestling show brings together freaks of all ages and creeds, all with different ambitions and agendas. In the feature-length documentary This Wrestling Life, the camera is pointed at four such freaks: a wrestler running out of time to make into the big leagues; a young kid determined to follow in his hero's footsteps; a young woman grappling with learning the ropes and her own personal limitations and a gay man trying to make it as a referee...More?

Update on the Probability of Jeff Hardy Serving Jail Time
The Wrestling Observer is reporting that based on statements made by Maureen Kruger, who is the judge handling Jeff Hardy's current court case, the expectation is that Hardy's plea bargain will entail the drug trafficking charge being dropped and Hardy will then plead guilty as a first time drug offender. The trafficking charge carries a mandatory prison sentence, so if that is dropped then he might avoid jail time altogether and face penalties by way of fines and probation.
