Some of you may remember that Dawn Marie was in some shit a while back concerning some pretty nasty allegations of misusing moneys raised through her Wrestlers Rescue charity. I've searched high and low over the last twenty-two months for updates, but haven't found so much as a whisper either way.
While I don't know whatever came of the accusations, I did come across this: http://www.onlybobsopinion.net/2012/02/help-out-jimmy-snuka.html

Apparently, Dawn's foundation is still operating...
And, apparently, Superfly needs a new ankle.

I just killed two birds with one stone! ;)

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE has signed Ashley Fliehr Johnson to a developmental contract. Johnson is the daughter of hall of famer Ric Flair. She is a former Division-1 athlete in volleyball at Appalachian State University. She is expected to report to FCW this summer.

You mean the Chappell Hill incident?
Yes, I believe that was Ashley. She apparently socked Ric and, when police came, she resisted arrest by kicking one of the officers, so they tased her.

I'll bet Vince won't try any stupid shit with her...Nailz II, baby!

I read this a few days ago and was absolutely delighted with the news as i too have an appreciation for her appearance :D On a side note, Chyna is roughing it up pretty badly these days with collapses, hospital trips and horrific plastic surgeries. I hope Lisa Marie maintains her current appearance.

Victoria's kept herself in A LOT better shape than other divas from her generation such as Dawn Marie, Tammy Sytch, Francine, and Missy Hyatt. Trish has probably maintained the best - at least insofar as the last time I saw her.

I hope that this starts a trend; maybe Penthouse & TNA can ink some kind of deal with other various "Knockouts" appearing. I would LOVE to see Angelina Love & Velvet Sky in the pages! Lacey Von Erich should return to TNA long enough to do it, too. 8)

Did Christy Hemme appear in Playboy a few years back? I wonder if she signed anykind of "no-compete" clause!

She is so fucking sexy. Loved when she had those red streaks going through her hair during her WWE days. Incredible athlete, too. Always liked her 'widow's peak' finishing move in the ring. Very tough and a badass. Wrestled through a torn ACL for over a year.

Randy Orton's WWE Suspension History - Is His Latest Wellness Strike His Third?
By Daniel Pena
May 30, 2012 - 10:27:25 PM

WWE announced Wednesday that Randy Orton has been suspended for 60 days for his second violation of the company's Talent Wellness Program. Though it is his third suspension by the organization, it is only his second suspension to be classified as a Talent Wellness Program infraction.

Orton was first suspended by the organization on April 3, 2006—for 60 days—for "unprofessional conduct," which did not count as a Wellness Program violation. He smoked marijuana backstage at the March 28, 2006 SmackDown taping, which company employee Bruce Prichard discovered and reported to management. Orton addressed the matter during an interview published in the September 2006 issue of WWE Magazine.

When asked why he's "always acting like such an ass," Orton stated, "My problems came to a head when I decided to smoke a joint and someone smelled it and stooged me off. You know who you are, so if you're reading this, thanks. But I also had a few outbursts of anger on the road. I get loud and verbally abusive. But I've nipped that part of me in the bud. I attended an anger management clinic in Atlanta. It cost 15 grand for a four-week stay. I had to live down there on the campus. The first week I was there, I was like, OK, I'll do what I have to do to get out of here." But then I started to realize, wow, I was wrong in a lot of these situations. I just got this reputation of being hard to work with, being a dick and everything in the book. But the truth is, I don't flip out anymore."

On August 30, 2007, WWE suspended eleven wrestlers (Booker T, Charlie Haas, Chavo Guerrero, Chris Masters, Edge, Funaki, Gregory Helms, John Morrison, Mr. Kennedy, Umaga and William Regal) based on information provided by the Albany, New York, District Attorney's Office concerning contracted talent using online pharmaceutical outlet Signature Pharmacy to obtain performance-enhancing drugs and prescription drugs to clients who had not been examined by doctors. Both Sports Illustrated (article) and the Daily News of New York City (article) independently named Orton as a client of the Orlando based pharmacy, which Albany County and Florida law enforcement agencies raided in February 2007. Orton received somatropin, nandrolone, stanozolol between September 2004 and February 2007, which occurred after the "no drugs from online sources" rule was instituted in the Talent Wellness Program. However, he was the lone contracted performer not to be suspended by WWE. Wrestling Observer editor Dave Meltzer reported that WWE took no action against Orton because he had already been suspended in August 2006 (for failing a drug test for a steroid which he not have a prescription for), resulting in double jeopardy. The ruling appeared suspect since Orton continued to receive pharmaceuticals following the suspension. Dr. David L. Black, who administers the program, was asked about the matter on September 25, 2007 during an U.S. Congressional investigation into WWE's business practices (document).

Brian Cohen, senior investigator and policy advisor for the United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, asked Black, "There is another talent of Randy Orton who had be suspended in 2006, for not having—tested positive without a prescription, and he was mentioned in this article as well, and subsequently went to headline two pay-per-view events, but in the past month. I just wonder if that kind of—I know the policy would be suspended for 60 days; correct? Does that undermine your efforts when you see this happening, when you see a guy who has been in an article last week and then headlines these events?"

Black replied, "Oh, sure I would agree that that's not good."

WWE attorney Jerry S. McDevitt stated in a December 2010 letter to Concussion Inc author Irvin Muchnick that no action was taken against Orton because he was not on any Signature Pharmacy client list provided to WWE by the Albany, New York District Attorney's Office. WWE, however, did not threaten Sports Illustrated nor the Daily News with legal action regarding the claim.

Gee, I wonder how he got that reputation.

Maybe they count his infractions the same way they do Mysterio's. I lost count of what he was up to, but it seemed like you read he was suspended again...and again...and again, yet he always came back. Aren't they supposed to release you after a certain number?

Was very surprised to hear this but he will never be fired as he is a "franchise player",Think if he went to TNA.  I personally can't stand him but to each their own...

Wow! For a while, she was looking good in a few sporadic shots I'd been seeing of her.
Maybe this is a bad angle, pose, lighting, makeup job?

I wonder what he was caught doing? He doesn't look as built as he used to.


It could have been something besides steroids. A while back, somebody here had a list of "substances" that were considered WP violations. Orton's already been caught smoking weed backstage at shows. How pompous, arrogant, and pretentious, that he thinks he is above everyone else and can do shit like that without consequence.

............

Super Luchas Magazine, a usually reputable magazine from Mexico, reports that Randy Orton violated the WWE Wellness Policy after testing positive for Dianabol and marijuana.

Marijuana isn't punishable by suspension in WWE, just a $2,500 fine. The report states that Orton tested positive for marijuana, was fined and then tested again for other substances where he tested positive for use of Dianabol. Dianabol (methandrostenolone) is an orally-effective anabolic steroid. Dianabol was commonly used by bodybuilders until Congress banned it under the Controlled Substances Act.

There is no confirmation to this rumor yet so take it for what it's worth.
