Lacey von Erich has been removed from the Roster list on Florida Championship Wrestling. There was a rumor going around that she was pregnant, but she denied it to a friend.
From what I was hearing, she didn't have what it takes to become a WWE worker.
She was seen hanging around in California with her boyfriend Grant, when she should have been in Florida training.
On her myspace page, there were some entries from friends who asked her to call home, and were complaining that she needed to come home and take care of her son, Daniel, Jr.

This was sent in by LTrott3:
Even though I am still deciding if this is in bad taste, the upcoming issue of Hustler magazine (March 2008) has a two page spread of nude photos of the late Nancy Benoit. Apparently these images are from when she was married to Jim Daus. Apparently she was touring doing bikini and wet t-shirt competitions in Florida when one of the hosts told her she should be in Penthouse. He set up a photo shoot for her and then videotaped the photo shoot. Nancy never submitted the photos and later had them destroyed but either never knew about or got the video which is now in the possession of Hustler.

Pro Wrestling Dynasty in conjunction with the AWA Presents
"Cold As Ice"
Saturday, December 29th, 2007
Charley Katz Community Center
6111 NW 10th Street Margate, FL
Belltime: 8 P.M - Admission $10
Hot of the heels of our biggest and best show to date, "Thanksgiving Thunder", Pro Wrestling Dynasty, the company that brought you such surprises as Teddy Hart and ROH Star Erick Stevens, in conjunction with the AWA, present our year end showcase "Cold As Ice" on Saturday night, December 29th in Margate, Florida! This one will feature International stars as well.
TORNEO DE LOS REYES TO CROWN NEW AWA FLORIDA CHAMPION!
Torneo De Los Reyes, a 16-man tournament to determine the number one wrestler in Pro Wrestling Dynasty, has gotten even more important with the latest announcement that the winner of the tournament will be crowned the new AWA Florida Champion! Four men have survived this long: Chasyn Rance, Scott Commodity, Mr. Saint Laurent and Daron Smythe. Each man has something to prove! However, due to a broken ankle, Chasyn Rance cannot compete. This leaves us with:
Scott Commodity recently shed his "nerd" persona, claiming that Pro Wrestling Dynasty was holding back a star that has competed all over the world, including WWE and TNA. Scott, along with his manager Fabulous Frank, made a statement at Thanksgiving Thunder in a decisive victory over newcomer TJ Flash. Can Scott continue his momentum and be crowned the new AWA Florida Champion?
Mister Saint Laurent claims to be "The Most Important Man Alive" and this is certainly his chance to prove he is the most important man in Florida wrestling today. No stranger to singles gold, MSL is a former SCW Florida Heavyweight Champion and held that title over a year against the top competition in the state. MSL looks to climb the mountain once again at Cold As Ice. What will happen if MSL faces Chasyn Rance?
Daron Smythe is a wild card in this tournament. Having broken out in 2007 with partner Wade Koverly as "The Lifeguards", Smythe has spent most of the year as a tag team specialist but has managed to make his way to the semi-finals. Can Smythe pull off what has to be considered an upset and become the AWA Florida Champion? What does Wade Koverly think of his partner's newfound singles success?
In the meantime, we have come to terms with New Japan Pro Wrestling's Naofumi Yamamoto to make his Pro Wrestling Dynasty debut on this show. This show will also see Craig Classic's first match back in the United States after his latest tour of Big Japan Pro Wrestling. You will also see the newly crowned AWA World Tag Team Champions, The Heartbreak Express.
MAIN EVENT
New Japan's Naofumi Yamamoto & "The Natural" Kenny King
vs.
"The Marquee" Bruce Santee & Jon Davis
Who will be crowned winner of El Torneo de los Reyes and the new AWA Florida Champion?
Will it be Scott Commodity, Mister St. Laurent or Lifeguard Daron?
Ladies Match

Also in action: The Sheik, AWA World Tag Team Champions The Heartbreak Express, The Dynamic Duo, Keith Blonde, The Dynasty Divas, Demon Toro, Lifeguard Wade, Kolby, Frankie Coverdale, Jaison Moore, Big Japan Pro Wrestling's Craig Classic, Austin Amadeus, Johnny Vandal, Andrew Wolf, and more.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas, and will be looking forward to bringing in the New Year, which is just around the corner.
