-- Some people within TNA recently sent out feelers to people in WWE about taking BG James and Kip James off of their hands. WWE actually said they would possibly consider BG James (his brother Scott Armstrong is currently a referee for ECW), but said they want absolutely nothing to do with Kip James.
-- Highspots.com has just released "Girls Custom Wrestling Matches" DVDs on six women including two TNA Knockouts. They have released DVDs on former ECW Vixxen Francine, former WWF Hardcore Champion Bobcat, former WCW valet Daffney, Ring of Honor wrestler Lacey (who once did a rant on her MySpace on WWE Divas and did an angle in ROH just last December in which she cuts a promo on Tammy "Sunny" Sytch for making it hard for fans to take women in wrestling seriously), and current TNA Knockouts Salinas (going by her real name Shelly) & Robert Roode's manager Ms. Payton Banks (going by her indy wrestling name Rain). The matches are pretty much displays of various wrestling holds as they grapple each other in a ring in an empty building. Highspots advertises all of the DVDs with the following tagline: "UNCENSORED VERSION! May contain adult language and wardrobe malfunctions.", so it appears to be more about T & A than wrestling. You can see the product pages on the DVDs on Shelly Martinez and Ms. Payton Banks at those links. The videos were shot late last year.
-- TNA Knockout Christy Hemme is auctioning off a pair of black wrestling boots she has worn on TNA Impact on eBay at this link. Bidding for this item starts at $595.00, with the "Buy It" price set at $795.00. Thus far, the auction has no bidders. Additionally, an auction for the "school girl" outfit Hemme wore for her appearance on Howard Stern's show back in 2005 when she was in WWE to promote her Playboy spread was up on eBay this past week. The auction ended this afternoon with no bidders. The auction price was set at $995.00 with the "Buy It" price at $1,395.00. The former WWE Diva even threw in the undergarments she wore that day in the auction (black bra and a "mystery" G-String) as a bonus for the winner, but alas, there were still no bidders. You can see the closed auction at this link.
