Francine Fournier confirmed Thursday that she still intends to work the upcoming Women’s Extreme Wrestling Tit for Tat pay-per-view taping on December 14, 2007. In her first substantial MySpace update since July, Francine wrote:

I will be working for WEW (my favorite company!) on December 14th in Philly. I really love working there. I get to have a slumberparty with my best girlfriends and I really enjoy working with everyone. It’s such a good time!

As always, Francine has plenty of other things going on. In addition to continuing to plan her upcoming nuptials, Francine has posted new eBay auctions for her ring worn clothing and shoes.

Francine will also be accepting orders for another round of custom videos until December 12th. Francine and the Battling Bunnies are scheduled to record new videos on December 14th - you can send orders and questions to francinesthings@yahoo.com.

One final note for Francine fans looking to impress the Queen of Extreme this Christmas season - according to her MySpace blog, there’s nothing Francine wants more than gift certificates to Lush (www.lush.com).

Circa 1995 this is one of the first ECW matches I’d seen and one that definitely stands out. Matches like this are why I, and many others I’m sure, became fans of ECW in the first place:

Great stuff. Richards used to throw a super kick better than anyone, now he does a tech review like nobody’s business.

ECW favorite Stevie Richards may not get much airtime on the WWE’s new ECW, but that doesn’t mean you have to go without a weekly fix of wrestling’s most entertaining performer.

Richards, using his real name Michael Manna, is hosting a web based tech review show at T4show.com. He blogs there as well and seems to know his stuff. Who knew Stevie Richards was a nerd? Oh, well.

Here’s my favorite review so far:

Quick fun fact: Stevie Richards resets his router with a series of super kicks. Visit T4 today.

What’s Shelly Martinez been up to lately?

None of your goddamn business, that’s what.

In all seriousness, by now you’ve probably heard that since wrapping up work on The Search for the Next Elvira and her fetish film for Jewel De’Nyle, Shelly has reportedly been hanging out at ringside during LAX matches in TNA. I say “reportedly” because she’s only appeared in disguise so far, but once she sheds the costume, rumor has it Shelly Martinez will be managing LAX.

Shelly is also sporting a TNA Knockouts banner on her MySpace profile.

If you haven’t caught TNA IMPACT! lately, it’s definitely worth checking out their Women’s Division matches. Hopefully TNA will make better use of Shelly Martinez than the WWE did.

Every once in a while, a kid is born and you just know his life is going to be an uphill struggle every step of the way. It’s a pretty safe bet Balls Mahoney’s kid is one of those children.

On Thanksgiving day (November 22, 2007), Balls Mahoney’s girlfriend gave birth to a 9 pound boy, Christopher. The poor kid never had a chance. As soon as his schoolmates find out who his dad is, Christopher is going to be called “Little Balls,” “Tiny Balls,” or one of those equally uncreative epithets that kids love to toss around.

EoS congratulates Balls on the birth of Christopher. We hope the name sticks!
