Paige Wanted To Physically Harm Herself After Recent Cyber Bullying, Paige & Alberto El Patron Getting Married

Paige and Alberto el Patron announced on social media that they are getting married this Wednesday. Paige, who was a victim of being hacked and having personal videos and photos leaked online, acknowledged how tough it has been for her since the leak and said that there were days that she wanted to “physically harm” herself.

You can read her full statement below:

“I made a big mistake. Huge. I put trust in the hands of someone that took advantage of a young girl years ago. It was my mistake and I’ll always take responsibility. But the one thing that was the hardest was thinking “my husband is gonna leave me” “my family will disown me” but I’m blessed beyond words to have a family and a husband that stuck by me because they know who I am. They know I’m not a bad person and they held my hands through hell. Because as my husband says “you may feel like the devil is throwing you into a storm, but just remember, you are the storm”. And he’s right. But we are human. Unfortunately people don’t see it that way when they are behind a keyboard. They don’t think that we have feelings or that we don’t suffer.Not only was I a victim of viral humiliation but a victim of cyber bullying.

I had days where I wanted to physically harm myself. Not only for what millions was telling me but because my family and my husband were suffering the same fate from the internet because of my mistake. It made me and Alberto to wonder how people who aren’t as mentally strong as us can handle this? How many people have to suffer because of the internet and the cowards behind the keyboard.

Or how many men and women have fell into the same trap as me and made those mistakes?

That’s why we are taking this massive negative and making some kind of positive. We wanna bring those people to justice and also take down the ones who are trolls, with the lack of a better term.

Bring awareness. Bring help to those who don’t have the tools or the mental strength to do this themselves. To show men and women alike to always think about their future before they do something like this that may cause a butterfly effect later on in life. Now I know through all of this is..

No one will make me feel bad about my mistakes, I already know what they are and I already feel bad. But Alberto and I together can also make a change. My mistake could help people’s future. Think. Before you act.

Anyways. Onwards and upwards. Only happiness. No longer talking about anything. Just looking into the future and being happy! I mean come on, I’m getting married? How can I not be happy!!!!”

Impact Wrestling And Lucha Libre AAA Announce Partnership

partnership impact aaa tna jeff jarrett

A new alliance in the wrestling world has arrived … because Impact Wrestling and Lucha Libre AAA announced on Wednesday that they’ve reached a partnership deal.

The Anthem press release states that the agreement includes a talent exchange and “other opportunities to collaborate with each other in their respective markets.”

Jeff Jarrett sounded thrilled by the new deal and was quoted saying, “This is an exciting time to collaborate, coinciding with AAA’s 25th anniversary and IMPACT Wrestling’s 15th anniversary. By building bridges with various partners globally, we can give fans a premier product featuring the best possible talent, which has always been a top priority.”

Jarrett also promised more partnerships “in the coming weeks and months.”

Matt Hardy And Jeff Hardy Offered New WWE Contracts

Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that WWE has offered new contracts to Matt and Jeff Hardy and that “all signs point to an inevitable [WWE] return.”

As we previously reported, Broken Matt is currently battling with Impact Wrestling over the use of his name/gimmick.  The wrestling company believes they should be paid when it’s used, but Hardy doesn’t agree. The brothers are also the current ROH tag champs after signing a short-term deal.

Still no word on whether WWE creative is looking to use their “broken” characters, but the legal side of things probably doesn’t bode well for a chance of that happening immediately.

Update: 

PWInsider confirmed reports that Matt and Jeff Hardy have been in talks with WWE, and noted that “it’s a matter or when, not if” the brothers return to the company.

According to PWInsider, the deal is only for Matt and Jeff, and not for Reby or Senor Benjamin. It was noted that one major issue that would have to be worked out is the schedule, as the Hardys likely don’t want a full time schedule.

Konnan Not Happy With Impact – AAA Alliance

As noted, Jeff Jarrett, Nordholm and Jeremy Borash were at AAA’s annual Rey de Reyes tournament this past weekend and announced an alliance between AAA and Impact Wrestling. Jarrett noted that Impact still plans to work with Konnan’s CRASH promotion in Mexico. Konnan was asked on Twitter if he was “OK” with the alliance between AAA and Impact, and he admitted that he wasn’t:

Konnan did confirm that despite the AAA – Impact partnership, CRASH talent like the Laredo Kid and Garza Jr. will still be featured on Impact Wrestling.

Reby Hardy Reveals Legal Proposal From Impact Wrestling, Says They Are Done Playing Nice

As noted, Impact Wrestling sent ROH and pay-per-view companies legal threats before ROH’s 15th Anniversary show last weekend. Reby Hardy posted several posts on Twitter regarding Impact’s legal battle with the Hardys, as seen below:

UPDATE: TNA sent an absolutely laughable legal proposal re: trademark, usage & ownership. Sigh.We tried to play nice. Truly.
Oh well.

They also seem real hurt about #f–kThatOwl. Awww.

Cute.

Fun facts ! Señor Benjamin never signed one piece of paper stating TNA could ever use, broadcast or profit from his image/likeness.

Fun facts ! Maxel was never legally cleared to work/appear on camera. Wanna check them TV child labor laws & get back to me, TNA ?

Fun facts ! Nearly every notable attribute that makes #BROKEN Matt Hardy “Broken Matt Hardy” was developed by ME in a @WaffleHouse. Yummy !

Fun facts ! Trying to prevent someone from legally making money is torturous interference of business & a HUGE OFFENSE ! How bow dat C&D ?

Fun facts ! I filed for the #BROKEN trademark when all the shady business from JJ & Anthem got back to me, WEEKS before his contract was up.

If owning my husband was that important, why not file/apply – oh, I don’t know – BEFORE his contract was up ? BEFORE you found out I did ?

And the store I’ve been running for 5+ years, 100% by myself, with MY original designs & my sole effort/investment. Yeah, they want a cut.

Theme song I composed/recorded/graciously allowed them to use GRATIS when they were having licensing issues w/music. They claiming that too.

If the character is TNA’s, where are their format sheets ? (Don’t exist). Where are the scripts ? (Can’t be produced; don’t exist). And….

..Best part. Ready ? SURPRISE ! “The Hardy Show” was behind the scenes recording OUR entire creative process this whole time. See you soon !

And #f–kThatOwl

Reby also noted that all of the character terms (‘delete’, ‘broken’, etc.) were Matt’s idea except for “obsolete,” which she said she came up with. She also hinted that they have hired legal representation:

I’d suggest those who don’t know the 1st thing about image releases in television refrain from commenting on what is/isn’t “right”……it’s past a matter of opinion at this point. It comes down to law, something we never had to worry about til TNA brought it into things

They wanna get legal & specific ?
We can get legal & specific.
That’s what it comes down to.
Sad, but that’s what we’re forced to do.

From now on, someone will be speaking for us regarding the ridiculous situation we’ve been put in. And not on twitter. Thx for the support.

Maxel was 100% safe & well protected at all times. Dixie & Universal made sure of that. Not sure new mgmt would have; PART of reason we left

Getting technical NOW regarding releases & permissions to appear re: Maxel because we have no choice but to given the circumstances.

We didn’t bring legal garbage into this. TNA did. They want to bring the law into it, so can we. Simple as that. Anyone else questioning anything about my kid can pull a Maddox & dump your BS load elsewhere. Thanks
