- Former doctor, Phil Astin, who was the physician to the Benoits, and who supplied the deceased wrestler among a list of patients with illegal prescriptions, was sentenced to 10 years in prison today for his crimes.

A remorseful Astin commented, “I take full responsibility. I am sorry I hurt so many lives. I was thinking that I was looking after my patients.”

- Yesterday’s episode of WWE Raw on the USA Network drew a 3.3 cable rating, which is inline with last week’s number.

- Former WWE Diva and ECW original Dawn Marie, who is currently heading up the Wrestler’s Rescue charity, is expected to give birth to her second child any day now. Congrats to her and a thank you for all the work she is doing for the veterans of our wonderful sport!

- Emma from TheSun.co.uk sent in the following:
The WWE may not be able to sign up Britney Spears or Kylie Minogue but they are looking at taking on the next best thing.

Gorgeous blonde Rachael Carr – who has been the body double for both – is currently training in Florida and hoping to win a full time contract on Raw or Smackdown.

If the model and dancer is successful she would join Katie Lea and Layla to make a tasty trio of British babes in Vince McMahon’s federation.
