ECW Original Retires, WWE DVD's Pulled, Today's Birthdays

- Former WWE star Ricky Ortiz turns 37 years old today while Doug Basham turns 41.

- WWE's European DVD distributor Silvervision announced that because of production problems, they are issuing refunds to fans who pre-ordered the following DVD and Blu-ray titles: Best of WCW Clash of the Champions, ECW Unreleased Volume 1 and WrestleMania 28.

- We noted before that ECW Original Axl Rotten fell asleep at the wheel and was in a car wreck while returning home from the Extreme Reunion event in Philadelphia last month. Axl, who defeated Balls Mahoney at the event, says he's wrestled his last match. He wrote on Facebook, "This is very easy to say. No tearful videos or thank you's. I had fun wrestling Balls Mahoney at Extreme Reunion. I will keep my thoughts on the other matches and event as a whole to myself. I think I'm done. I had 24 yrs doing what I love. I'm not going to wrestle another match. Thanks for the ride. It ended in a bang....Literally.- Axl Rotten"
