-- TNA Knockout ODB appeared on the Who's Slamming Who podcast (whosslammingwho.podomatic.com) this past Monday. She was asked about Gail Kim leaving TNA for WWE. ODB said: "Well I actually think she kept it a secret cause I didn't know what, ya know. Obviously negotiations come in, you gotta go where you gotta go sometimes but it was a shock to me, like all the internet crap I've been hearing, but I don't really listen to the internet but I was getting text messages from everyone like "Oh is she going over there?" and I'm like I don't know. And then she made the choice to go over there and good for her, she has to.. you know it's about making money in this business too. And she's been in both places, and ya know, she's gotta think about her future now. I think she'll do good over there, she'll fit right in and she's a Knockout in her heart but I guess she'll be a Diva for a little bit." ODB was also asked to choose which three WWE Divas she would bring to TNA if she could. ODB said Beth Phoenix and Natalya. She also said she would bring back Gail Kim.

-- Mickie James has posted a poem on the WWE Universe site entitled Taking Flight. You can read her poem at the following link. The poem comes off a bit cryptic at times with the following stanzas:

Besides... I am so tired of flying. My wings ache... No one truly
knows how I long to land. I cant.. No! I won't let them... But its all
I've ever really wanted.

This time... I will not land in a trap. Only to be put on display
as if I were a trophy piece
