Brett Armstrong sent in the following... I just picked up the WWE Best of 2004 magazine ($9.99 in Canada). Basically it’s what it says, a recap. Smackdown and Raw both have a year in review section, and a superstar of the year. There is also a small 2-3 page recap of each pay per view during the year. The rest of the magazine is basically pictures with sections from matches, celebrations and behind the scenes stuff, the pictures really are good because they are a bit more than the magazines generally offer, they are a little more artsy and look like pictures than just pictures of the in ring action. It’s not a bad magazine, it is better than the normal magazines, but if you didn’t like 2004, you certainly won’t like this.

Matt W. sent in the following... I just wanted to email the site and inform that Chyna is on VH1's "The Surreal Life" and she basically just confessed to everyone around a campfire about some of her personal demons. She said that "I don't have any family or friends and that she has serious relationship problems." She also said that "It got so bad that six months ago I tried to commit suicide by downing a bottle of pills in my bathroom." I don't know if this is old news or not, but wanted to inform the site either way.
