She was part of the class action lawsuit against the WWE, and supposedly she was sexually assaulted during a WWE tour but the WWE convinced her to keep it quiet.
There were some rumors floating around her post WWE.
Again, way too young to die.

Wwe with the network

DAZN also has MLW which is slowly garnering more and more praise. Supposedly Teddy Hart has finally gotten his #### together and it's a really enjoyable product. I've yet to check it out but it's on my list.

You can also watch MLW on YouTube a few days after it's up on DAZN. There is a New Hart Foundation, with Teddy, Harry Smith and Brian Pillman's son.

She needs an exceptional wrestler to carry her to a decent match.

Just to be consistant, I'm unsure if I'm going to watch tomorrow's Money in the Bank PPV.
But I might as well throw out some predictions
Tony Nese (c) vs. Ariya Daivari
I can't see them taking the belt off of Nese, he's been on a star turn. Daivari is a great heel and ready to take the next step but not this day
Tony Nese
Daniel Bryan & Rowan vs. The Usos (Kickoff Show)
The fact that this is on the kickoff show, kind of illustrates how bad tag team wrestling is right now. The USO's are now the mean girls of the division with their superhot prank and back shaving skits.
I'll take Bryan and Rowan
United States Championship: Samoa Joe (c) vs. Rey Mysterio
Samoa Joe has been a solid champion, and it would be stupid to take the belt off of him. I stopped caring about Rey years ago. If they can have Joe murder Rey's son it would make it a 5 star match no matter what
Samoa Joe retains
Roman Reigns vs. Elias
I'm happy that Roman beat cancer and I'm glad he's back. But we're back to Super Reigns again, and the last good things about Eliass have been buried.
Roman Reigns
The Miz vs. Shane McMahon (Steel Cage Match)
I've liked Miz in the face role. Frankly I'm sick of the pudgy son of the owner regularly beating up wrestlers. I mean I get that fans love Shane because he's a spot monkey who does big spots, but losing to Shane just buries Miz, and I don't want to see a 40 some executive beating up a wrestler.
Shane McMahon ends the feud, buries Miz and moves on to feud with Reigns
Nikki Cross vs. Bayley vs. Natalya vs. Naomi vs. Carmella vs. Dana Brooke vs. Mandy Rose vs. Ember Moon (Women's Money in the Bank)
Winning the MITB is a major elevation for a wrestler on the verge. Just looking at this lineup, its amazing how weak the Woman's division has gone with Bliss, Banks and Rousey injured or not available.
Nikki Cross is a late addition, and I loved her in NXT but she's been pretty meh on the main roster. It wold have been nice to see any of the former members of the Riot Squad in this, but they've been nowhere to be seen since the superstar shuffle. I expect they'll let Mandy heel win this somehow and push her to the moon.
Mandy Rose
Finn Balor vs. Sami Zayn vs. Baron Corbin vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Ricochet vs. Randy Orton vs. Andrade vs. Ali (Men's Money in the Bank)
This should be a good match. Right now to me the ones that could most benefit from winning are Andrade and Zayn. Chances are the WWE will resist the temptation to do the right thing and do the old thing and give the briefcase to Orton or Drew.
I'm going to predict that they get this right, Zayn will win.
Raw Women's Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Lacey Evans
With two woman's title matches featuring Becky, I can guarantee you that she'll lose one. Evan's has kind of found her stride since they went from her catwalking to doing what she does best which is to be a southern heel. But I think the WWE is going to want to established woman's champions and make Evan's wait
SmackDown Women's Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Charlotte Flair
I am so sick of this freaking matchup. The WWE has failed to elevate woman to the upper card over the last wild and because of that and again the departure of Rousey, the injury to Bliss, and the vacation of Banks has left a huge hole in the division, we're stuck with the same old thing. The WWE seems to like to put the belt on Charlotte, so here we go again. Boring
Charlotte
WWE Championship: Kofi Kingston (c) vs. Kevin Owens
Without the rest of New Day at his side, I expect that the WWE won't have faith in continuing the Kofi push. I'm a big fan of Kevin Owens, but not his confusing booking since he got back. But I expect the belt will go around his waist
Kevin Owens
Universal Championship: Seth Rollins (c) vs. AJ Styles
Two great workers and should be the match of the night, I respect AJ a lot, but I really don't think at his age and with his new contract that the WWE is going to put the belt on him.
Seth Rollins
After the match we see the return of an Angry Brock Lesnar to set up a a feud with Seth.

Well this PPV is a bust of bad booking and meh matches
They had a chance to elevate someone in the Woman's division that's really weak right now. Instead after a pretty meh MITB match they put the briefcase on Bayley who's so stale and boring now that I just can't seem to care.
Then Joe who's been really good as a Champ gets his face busted by a 80 year old Rey who takes the belt. I'm wondering if they're setting up Rey's son to go over Joe
Then Shane the 50 year old pudgy Grey Haired middle manager goes over Miz who's actually been really good in a face role, because why?
God the booking is stupid and the matches have been uninspiring.

Yeah, I kind of gave up after my last post. However I did note that Brock Lesnar won Money in the bank. Becky beat Evans, then lost to Charlotte who lost to Bayley after she cashed in the brief case.
I just can't spend 5 hours on a PPV anymore.

So the reason why the commentators were shocked at the end of the Joe Mysterio match was because it was decided to end the match early because of the amount of blood that Joe was leaking.
That was not the ending and the ref was counting no matter what.
I miss the days of crimson masks.

I went through it this morning, skipping on half speed a few of the matches that I read werent great
Overall I think it was really good, their best ppv in a long time
The aj vs seth match is must watch for anyone
Bayleys cash in was great, crowd popped loud too
The brock thing goes two way for me, if he uses it for the jeddah show its dumb. But if he treats it like a heel and fakes some cash ins, then eventually loses? Could be great

Also if nick Foley isnt introducing a new 24/7 hardcore title someone needs to be fired
The stuff they could do with that is so easy
Middle of random days cut into a match somewhere, it can pop up on youtube, twitter, periscope, ig live, even have the network cut in live

I don't think that they can really do a hardcore belt because of the restrictions that are placed on WWE TV, no blood no head shots etc.
The rumor is that this is going to be a legends belt and the first title match will be Goldberg and the Undertaker.

I'm assuming you're talking about that 24/7 champion.
I remember back in the day (Don't call me gramps) when the hardcore title was defended every where every time, and they had pins happening in malls and airports and grocery stores, it was funny, and at one point Hurricane Helms came out on stage and Might Molly double crossed him and wanged him with a frying pan to win the title.
At that time it was sometimes hilarious and creative. I think this is just an attempt at a running joke.
Honestly I fell asleep just before the Funhouse, and woke up to see the end of of the tag team main event.
The product is just that bad now.
