Candice Michelle Broke Her Collar Bone - Video
Posted on October 24, 2007 at 12:32 pm (PST)Candice Michelle, who is known for gracing the pages of Playboy in 2006, and most notably her Godaddy commercials, fell yesterday in a WWE performance and broke her collar bone. She fell when she was standing on the ring ropes, and another wrestler hit the ropes, causing Candice to fall head-first, which could have broken her neck, and probably gave her a closed head injury that will require a few days of observation. This is what happens when you’re top heavy.

Police Reveal Wrestler’s Death Was Murder-Suicide
Posted on June 26, 2007 at 7:29 pm (PST)
This is about as dark as it gets. Police have released some of the details surrounding the deaths of former WWE superstar Chris Benoit, his wife, and his young son, and they are simply gruesome. Benoit reportedly asphyxiated his wife and son Friday night, and then hung himself some time Saturday.
A Bible was found next to each of the bodies, and both prescription drugs and steroids were found in the house.
Police have not speculated about a motive or what role drugs and steroids might have played in this tragedy, although a toxicology report will no doubt answer some questions.
TMZ has footage of the police press conference here.
Another WWE Wrestler Is Found Dead

It’s a bad time to be a former WWE wrestler. Only days after "Sensational" Sherri Martel was found dead, WWE superstar Chris Benoit was found dead along with his wife and young son. All three bodies were discovered in their Atlanta home this afternoon.
Police have not released any details about the deaths, which have to have some current wrestlers nervous. Benoit was scheduled to appear at a pay-per-view event last night but was a no-show due to a "family emergency," according to the WWE.
We’ll keep you updated on this tragic story as it unfolds.
WWE Questions “Dead McMahon” Storyline In Light Of Actual Death
Posted on June 20, 2007 at 2:25 pm (PST)
The WWE isn’t guilty of using good taste very often, but the wrestling mega-corporation is currently pondering the use of some actual decorum. Only days after the WWE’s own "Sensational Sherri" Martel was found dead at her mother’s home, head honcho Vince McMahon was fictionally killed in a limousine explosion on Monday Night Raw. Now the WWE is reportedly considering abandoning the "McMahon is dead" storyline.
Police do not suspect any foul play in Martel’s death, but she reportedly did not die of natural causes. Meanwhile, McMahon’s fake death was over-dramatic and silly.
Since this is the WWE, we have to be a little suspicious that the company’s rethinking of their current storyline is just for PR reasons. Ratings are king in the world of professional wrestling, and even something as tragic as the death of one of their own probably won’t change Vince McMahon’s plans.
