WWE star Kia Stevens did not deliver a healthy baby boy on December 31st, despite what she told friends. Kia tells TMZ the child tragically died before she was able to give birth.

Kia tells us she is still devastated over the loss ... and initially lied to friends about the child being "healthy" because she was incredibly emotional and was afraid to tell the public the truth after announcing her pregnancy on live TV.

Kia says she's finally coming to grips with everything ... and wants to help other women in her situation.

"I am planning to start a foundation for women that have experienced the same thing" ... Kia says ... adding, "It's a bigger club than people think."

Kia tells us she's already organizing several events to raise awareness ... and will have information about her foundation available on her Twitter page in the near future.

From WWE.com:

While competing against Jinder Mahal at a SmackDown live event at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Arena on Tuesday night, Ted DiBiase suffered an ankle injury that is expected to keep him out of action for several weeks.

“Ted sustained a Grade 2 tear [on a 3-tier scale] to his deltoid ligament, and he also sustained a calcaneal fracture, or a heel bone fracture,” WWE physician Dr. Michael Sampson told WWE.com after the SmackDown Superstar was taken to a nearby medical facility for X-rays.

wrestlezone.com:

During an interview this past Monday on the Toucher & Rich radio show out of Boston, WWE Champion CM Punk had the following to say on the "internet war" he has had with the likes of Shawne Merriman and Chris Brown:

They're not Twitter wars. They're not. The Merriman thing isn't even anything. That dates back a couple of years now. We were in Costa Rica, there was a bunch of us lounging around a pool. I think it was me and Ted DiBiase, we were watching this goof run back and forth. He would literally go into the little poolside gym, do some bicep curls and then walk around us, hoping that some of the Divas would notice. A couple of the girls got up to leave to go get ready for the show and some big fat white guy came out of nowhere and I saw him handing out business cards to the girls.

Punk went on to say that after former Diva Gail Kim got up to leave, Merriman approached her, the situation got very awkward, and Kim did her very best to get away from Merriman and avoid him for the remainder of the night.

If serious, Merriman was a beast in the NFL until he got busted for juice.  Sucked after that.  I think Chris Brown is that "tough guy" who beat up Rhianna....

Okay, thanks.
And, yes: I was serious. I don't follow much in the way of "real" sports. ;)

SEScoops:

TNA executive Eric Bischoff posted the following on his Facebook page late Monday night ripping TNA employee Jeremy Borash:

“Just had a beer here in Nashville. Bartender asked me I worked for the boss ‘Jeremy Borash.’ When I asked ‘WTF’ that was supposed to mean, I was told emphatically that Jeremy has represented himself as an ‘owner’ of TNA. Jeremy is a low rent bit player who should be fortunate he has a job.”

I hope this isnt genuine, Borash is a mediocre employee who wouldnt be missed even in the toughest of times............

Do I smell an attempt at an old, WCW-esque "worked-shoot?"

The first two questions I would ask:

1.) Is she in a position to help him?

2.) Would it matter? I really think Jim may be beyond third-party help at this point - be it an intervention and/or financial aid.

I read that about Bloom a few days ago however he has denied this, claiming to be going on tour in Japan. The rumour is he's going to be Ace's henchman and go after Cena however i believe the Cena angle has been shot down. I dont know how he would fit in today tbh.

According to F4WOnline.com, former WWE and UFC star Brock Lesnar has signed a one year deal with WWE, which would clear him to make an appearance at WrestleMania tomorrow night.
 
As we reported earlier, Lesnar has arrived in Miami, and according to the latest sources, he was flanked by tons of security and personnel shielding him. WWE has yet to issue any type of confirmation that Lesnar has either signed a deal, or will be appearing at WrestleMania tomorrow.

According to TMZ.com, Buff Bagwell has made and IS making excellent progress following last Monday's auto accident, in which he apparently suffered a seizure and flipped his Jeep. His mother Judy Bagwell, former co-holder of the WCW tag-team titles, told the website that doctors removed Buff's breathing tube and he is talking and eating solid foods.

Which one, Justin or Sabu?  Either way that explanation sound dubious at best.

You never know what to believe; especially of what you read on the internet. It’s very possible that Sabu experienced an allergic reaction to a medicine, but it's also possible he had a bad reaction to a medicine interacting with other “substances” in his system at the time.
I’ve never heard any stories of Sabu being a user/abuser of rec drugs. That doesn’t mean he isn’t, nor does it mean he is.

I wonder what kind of state Credible was in to take a picture like that and think it would be nice to post it on Twitter.
