– WWE's Vengeance pay-per-view this past Sunday in San Antonio, Texas drew 8,000 fans, which is a disappointment for the area.

– Former WWE Tough Enough contestant Michelle Deighton and her wrestling personality husband Jonny Fairplay, who are split up, were offered $50,000 each to appear on a new VH-1 reality show called "Relationship Rehab." Fairplay reportedly agreed to do the show but Deighton turned it down. Fairplay was going to put his money from the show into their daughter's college fund. Deighton said she would have turned down the show even if she was offered $1 million.
