Bloody Elbow, for MMA and UFC news

According to Dave Meltzer, WWE sent their legal representatives to Wrestlecon today to seize all company branded merchandise that was being sold at the show, after getting a court order that allowed them to do so. Apparently, WWE also doesn't want smaller independent promotions to piggyback off the success of WrestleMania 29, but no-one listens to that order because it works so well.

Fellow blogger Irv Muchnick has written a controversial op-ed piece for SLAM! Wrestling on Bruno Sammartino's decision to finally be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame this year. My personal feelings closely match Muchnick's. Though I don't begrudge Bruno the well deserved honour or the money that was the condition of his acceptance, he made a grave error by stumping for the company's Wellness Policy in the media, at a time when The Rock's and Triple H's physiques look more than a bit fishy. That scepticism is only enhanced when you know the background of his trainer as well as Irv does: "[Paul] Levesque built his own squeaky-clean physique with the assistance of a personal trainer named Dave Palumbo. Levesque hired Palumbo after his release from prison for selling fake human growth hormone. A well-known steroid guru, Palumbo designs test-beating steroid cycles."

Yahoo!'s Dr. Saturday is making a list of 5 college football coaches who'd make good WWE wrestlers, and has Bielema at #5. It's a fun write-up, and one we have a hard time disagreeing much with.

Someone call Vickie Guerrero on speed dial! The bloodhounds at TMZ.com have caught John Cena cheating on AJ Lee with Nikki Bella. Only months after his real life divorce too, the rogue! It turns out that Cena was Nikki's date at the Bella Twins' high school reunion this past weekend. Meanwhile, Brie took her boyfriend Daniel Bryan. The perks of being a WWE main eventer! Oh, yes, yes, yes!

Last couple tweets from her would suggest so.

A good ol' friend over at The Smoking Section (TSS) gives several reasons why Triple H is the worst thing to happen to the WWE. Burials, racial innuendos, and Triple H being Triple H included.

The Cosmopolitan's unique take on the Daniel Bryan's YES chant.

I was solidly of the thought that Cena needed to win until I read "Why John Cena must lose against The Rock at WrestleMania 28", from the pro wrestling website Cageside Seats, then I made a complete 180 on the subject.
