John Cena Apologizes For Profanity On Raw, Says He Was Fined
John Cena posted the following on his twitter account:
"CeNation. Lots of posts about my language last night on raw. I do apologize. It was out of line and I was indeed fined. If I have offended anyone it was not my intention. I was very frustrated about being hurt and not able to compete. I lost my cool. I am sorry. Next time I will use something more creative like "whoop yer crap locker!" Or "whoop yer dump box!" :)"
Jeff Hardy Comments On His Legal Situation

Sports Celebrity Encounters: My Kids Meet Triple H
While walking through on the make shift tour, we bumped into a couple of the lesser known performers which my kids didn't recognize and then my older son yells "There's Triple H"! Triple H jokingly looking around and said "Where?" I was very apprehensive about letting my kids meet some of the performers that they saw on TV. We all know that Triple H is a character, but how would I know what the real Triple H was like? Would he be a jerk and insult my kids? I honestly didn't know. I will also admit that was apprehensive about professional wrestlers as I thought they would be ignorant egomaniacs, but Triple H was nothing like. He was honestly the kind of guy that you wouldn't mind going out to drink a beer with. He introduced them to a couple of other wrestlers and honestly gave my kids the highlight of their young lives. I have been a WWE fan every since, because these guys all seemed to genuinely care about the fans and even though he was busy preparing for a big TV show he found the time to shake hands with a fan.

"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?
