CQPolitics.com has a story online how Linda McMahon, former Chief Executive Officer of World Wrestling Entertainment, is paying a salary of $280,000 to her campaign manager David Cappiello noting it's likely a record
for campaigns in Connecticut. By the end of September, McMahon splashed a whopping $3.5 million of her own money into the campaign to unseat Sen. Christopher J. Dodd (D) in the upcoming U.S. Senate elections in the state of Connecticut. Federal Election Commission records showed McMahon funded about $135,000 in political consulting and she may spend up to $50 million to boost her bid.

 | Hey everyone!! So first of all Happy Holidays!! I am so excited to enjoy some down time before the gigantic year I have brewing for 2010!! So, lil update, my neck is in fabulous shape. Still perfectly intact and healed up. I have obviously not been too present in the six sided ring since being cleared to wrestle a couple months ago. Thing is, I came back from with a some hesitation, understandable after having the serious neck injury. I kept waiting for the hesitation to dissipate in my passion. It became very obvious for me in the last match I had on TV that is wasn't going away as I felt very protective of my neck and its high susceptibility to being re-injured. I knew in that match that I was done with the in-ring side of wrestling. I am an all or nothing girl and if I can't give all my heart and energy to every match I do then I am just taking from you, my opponent and the company. This was a very hard decision to make but the strength of love for my well being ultimately always wins my ego battle and I am very proud to value and know just how precious life is. I am extremely happy, excited, thrilled and energized by the new opportunity TNA has given me, utilizing me outside of the ring. I love wrestling and feel so blessed to still have a ring side seat to something I will always have so much heart for. Thank you soooooo much TNA and thank you to every single one of you that has supported me, I appreciate you more than you will ever know!! 1 billion XO's, Christy |
