— Mary Blinstrubas, Stephanie McMahon’s executive assistant who had been with the company since November of 2006, was let go amidst last week’s layoffs.

Blinstrubas was said to be incompetent. For instance, she’d constantly send out creative scripts via e-mail to random departments within the company, putting random people in the loop on creative plans before Vince McMahon himself even had a chance to review the shows. She’d also slip up and call Michael Hayes ‘Virgil’ and refer to Dusty Rhodes as ‘Brian’ (after Gewirtz). Blinstrubas would also accidentally patch in important calls with random extensions on the WWE board during conference calls with Vince.

Blinstrubas’ other duties included grocery-shopping for Stephanie, buying her clothes, relaying messages to her nanny, etc.

— SmackDown wrestler Hurricane Helms did a Q & A on his MySpace account answering a set of questions from the fans. He listed the non-WWE wrestlers he’d like to work with one day. Helms wrote: “Ron Zombie, Human Tornado (think what a team we’d make) Chris Sabin, Samoa Joe and Roxxi. I’m pretty sure that I could destroy them all, with the possible exception of Roxxi.” When asked about about the CM Punk vs. William Regal feud, Helms said he’s not impressed. “So far I’m not impressed, but mainly because I know what these two are capable of,” Helms wrote. Regarding how he met TNA Knockout Velvet Sky, he said: “I bought her off the internet! LOL She hates it when I say that! LOL” Helms was asked if he could ever see himself wrestling for a promotion besides WWE. Helms wrote: “I’m sure that when/if my WWE career ends and I’m still able to perform that I would seek employment elsewhere just as anyone would if they left their current job. I might even start my own promotion. I’d call it FEW, Future Endeavors Wrestling! I’m sure to get heat for that remark!” You can read the blog the Q & A at the following link.
