Let Us Know What You Think About 6-Sided Ring
Yesterday, we posted a Tweet sent out by Dixie Carter that showed the new (old?) 6-sided ring seen above that you the fans decided to bring back to TNA Wrestling.
Well, maybe we should say that TNA Wrestling fans in general voted in favor of the the “new – old” ring, but how do the DTRT Wrestling.com fans feel about it. Let’s get a nice “comment” discussion going and if we get enough feedback, we’ll update this story with what you have to say.
Vickie Guerrero Writes Heartfelt Letter To WWE
The below letter was posted to the WWE website on June 25, 2014
Excuse me!: A farewell letter to WWE
It has been an amazing 9-year career at WWE. I started at WWE as Eddie’s wife, and now I am leaving with my own identity. I loved performing in front of millions of people. Whether you hated or loved me, I appreciated every moment. I gained some amazing friendships that will always be kept in my heart. It is time to turn the page and start a new career in medical administration. I have so many other things to do in my life, and the most meaningful one is graduating from college in January. (Phil. 4:13 – “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”)
It is time to say “goodbye and thank you” to everyone from the WWE Universe, WWE Headquarters and everyone backstage.
My first “thank you” goes to my Lord Jesus Christ, for giving me a healthy mind and body to have been able to do the exciting things inside and out of the ring. He always kept me safe in my travels, and gave me the strength to improve myself emotionally and physically year after year.
To my beautiful daughters, Shaul and Sherilyn – Thank you for inspiring me to be better than yesterday. Your support was unconditional when I traveled. I still feel sad that I had to miss so many of your milestones. I love you girls with all of my heart.
Linda and Vince McMahon – I am grateful for the opportunities you gave me. Thank you for having my family feel accepted as a part of yours. I am thankful for the friendship we have built over the years. Vince, Eddie loved you like a dad! He had so much respect for you and it was always important to make you proud. Thank you for believing in me when I didn’t!
Stephanie – You are the true example of an independent, strong and successful woman. It has been an honor to work next to you. Thank you for being a part of my last night at WWE. I was honored! I wish happiness and love for Paul, you and the girls.

What’s next for Rousey after UFC 175?
Ronda Rousey has been one of the fastest rising stars ever since she made her UFC debut in 2011 when she defeated Liz Carmouche. Ever since then it’s pretty much been a non stop ride for the champ. What’s next you may ask? Well according to “Rowdy” she wants to take a break. You can read the article here http://www.mmaweekly.com/ronda-rousey-planning-to-take-a-break-following-ufc-175
Not sure if you remember but Rousey had scheduled a vacation/cruise but those plans came to a holt when she was offered to fight Sara Mcmann. That being said I think it’s safe to say the women’s batemweight champion deserves a break don’t you think?
Before that though she has to face her next challenger Alexis Davis in the co main event of UFC175 on July 5th
Oh and never fear guys because Rousey has said it won’t be some type of hiatus break. When she says break she means “probably like a month”
