Billy Corgan Criticizes Dave Meltzer Report

Back on Friday of last week, WZ was the first to offer Billy Corgan as one of the rumored names in talks to potentially buy TNA Wrestling. In a follow-up to our story, Dave Meltzer reported that while Corgan might have interest in purchasing the promotion, he hasn't the financial means to make such a purchase, much less carry the company on a long term basis.

In response to Meltzer's report, Billy Corgan has posted the following on Twitter, which is the first comment on the situation issued by Corgan himself. Yesterday, Corgan and a representative for TNA both issued comments seeming to neither confirm nor deny Corgan's interest in purchasing TNA:

@davemeltzerWON wasn't aware that you know the state of my empire! Next time maybe just ask….

The Miz Featured on Raw "Backstage Fallout"

The following is the latest edition of "Backstage Fallout" from Raw last night, featuring The Miz:

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
