WWE says “StayDaddy” to Candace Michelle
June 22nd, 2009 | 
Author: After five years and endless computer memory being devoted to images of her, Candace Michelle has been released from the WWE. The SuperBowl spokesmodel for GoDaddy.com was released without ceremony or explanation this past week.
In other developments, it appears CM Punk’s character is being revitalized once more with a solid push on Smackdown. It’s a great training ground for a younger wrestler like him who’s not quite ready for Raw, but could be soon.

Angle tops Foley, three others at TNA Slammiversary
Mick Foley lost the TNA title at the Slammiversary PPV on Sunday, with Kurt Angle becoming the new title-holder after defeating Foley, Jeff Jarrett, A.J. Styles and Samoa Joe in a King of the Mountain match. It’s been a while since TNA switched champs without using Jarrett as a transitional title holder, so that was refreshing.
And that’s about the only thing that was refreshing, as the names Foley, Jarrett and Angle were a lot more interesting back when they were new, in the 90s. Until TNA develops and takes more seriously home-grown young talent like A.J. Styles and Samoa Joe, there’s just not much to be excited about here. The Attitude Era is over, and both ECW and WCW are dead everywhere… except on TNA, which is dwelling somewhere in the Outer Banks, where the houses are beautiful, but the wrestling is so 10 years ago.
