- Former WCW wrestler Disqo was attacked by a dog earlier today while visiting a friend's apartment in Atlanta. Reportedly, as Disqo went to pet the dog, it lunged forward and bit his nose. Disqo had the following to say concerning the incident, "Although this vicious beast tried to take me out and do permanent damage to my nose, I want to assure concerned fans that I'll make my indy bookings in Canada this weekend. I am investigating whether or not this attack was premeditated. It brings up the question once again... just who the hell let the dogs out. Damn all dogs." - Scott Steiner has released a statement on his official site, BootyDaddy.com. In the statement, Steiner states the following, "Did you see the man in black last night? Man oh man...that's all I'm gonna say." Click HERE to check it out. Credit: BootyDaddy.com. Henry Walk from TheWrestleHolics.com pointed this out to us. Jeff Wilen sent in the following: Earlier tonight, a WWF Tough Enough preview was shown on Entertainment Tonight. They called it an all-new reality show that puts wrestlers into the ring. They showed Triple H and Chyna, and said both had an active in-ring role for the show. Clips of Triple H showing the contestants what "fake" wrestling punches were like were shown. A clip of Tazz chewing out a female contestant for sleeping during one of his speeches was shown. They also showed Kurt Angle. They said the field of over 5,000 audition tapes will be narrowed down to 13 wrestlers who will vie for a spot, and asked if they were tough enough to survive. The winner will be announced in a live TV special from Time Square. They showed lots of WWF in-ring highlights, and some of the contestants. At one point, they showed Jacqueline asking a cute contestant if she could hang with her and if she even worked out at all. They also showed several more try-outs, most of them ridiculous. The judges (Al Snow, Jacqueline, etc.) pick the final 13. The final 13 will live, play and train together. Ken Mok, the executive producer of the show, said that due to stress and injury, he didn't think there would be enough contestants to make it through production. The contestants are judged on physiques, athleticism, personality (interviews) and are drug tested. Geoffrey T Spaulding sent in the following: After Missy Hyatt's great appearance on Top Rope Radio, it was time for Bay Ragni to welcome the next guest... Former NWO girl, April Hunter.... Here's some of the highlights including a huge piece of news... -- April is originally from the Philadelphia area. She attended Garnett Valley High School. Bay learned about her as his wife, Jess saw April's photo in a copy of WOW magazine. Bay didn't believe his wife knew April until they started emailing. -- She started as a showgirl in Las Vegas and then became a fitness model. When WCW was looking for some females ( or as she called it gratitous cleavage) to join up. Out of the 12 they interviewed, she was part of the original 5. -- She just got into wrestling in the past couple of years. Her boyfriend was a big wrestling fan and she enjoyed the entertainment of it. She's been amazed at the inside things about wrestling, like the "secret handshake", etc. - She left WCW on good terms. Got frustrated since at that time there was 6 people with the book and she wasn't on tv that much, was also frustrated by the amount of travel. But, she was asked to come back and be Kwee Wee's valet and train at the Power Plant. But, she committed to move to Boston and begin to train at Killer Kowalski's school. -- She's right now with Chaotic Wrestling in Mass. Known as April Hunter-Kincaid. Part of a brother/sister heel tag team with her "brother" Arch. Chaotic just merged with Kowalski's school. April and Arch have a big inter-gender tag match with Simon Diamond & Dawn Marie. -- One of the biggest problems she's been encountering has been people not thinking she can actually wrestle. Perhaps her being 40DD gives them that idea. Hearing that Bay Ragni mentions she should perhaps hook up with Missy Hyatt at wrestlingvixxxens.com- which April thinks might be a great idea. -- Bay then announces that in addition to having Tommy Dreamer, Francine, CW Anderson and Lou E on the big show in Philadelphia on July 14th, that April Hunter has been added to the lineup as well. Also on the show will be a match from two stars from Chaotic Wrestling.. Slyk Wagner Brown against Hurricane Walters. April says that both of these guys are high flying techincal wrestlers. She wraps up by saying that she can't wait to visit South Street in Philly after the show.
