Back in August of 2008 REEL WRESTLING cameras caught up with then couple Kelly Kelly and Dave Batista out on a date.

However, before posting this video we tried to contact Mr. Batista’s manager. He called us back a few days later with the following quote from Dave. "Barbie and I went out on a few dates, nothing real serious. The only woman I’ve had a relationship with and loved besides my ex-wife in the last 10 years is Melina, who I still love even though we are not together."

Dave and Barbie attending a matinee showing of Legally Blonde before they performed at a Madison Square Garden house show. We hope they enjoyed one of the nicest days of the year in New York City / Manhattan.

It’s a good thing that Matt Hardy wasn’t touching down in the City of Brotherly Love after his brother, Jeff Hardy, accidentally broke his hand in a match the prior week.  While he certainly has a good excuse for not being able to sign autographs for fans, we wonder what he would do if that hand required holding a pen to sign a multi-million dollar contract?!

Matt seemed a little lukewarm in his responses about his brother whom he referred to as "the bastard" - do we sense a little animosity between the two?  Perhaps a broken heel might have been more appropriate since playing the heel doesn’t seem to suit Matt but you gotta do "whatever pays the bills."  Is a title in his future soon?  On one hand, Matt gave us no inkling, but on the other hand, it’s nice to know he "feels good."

Beth Phoenix was greeted at the Buffalo Airport by those pesky and irritating marks and we tried to set the record straight by asking her who was more annoying – our camera man or the marks?  She avoided that question and evaded several more from the status of her relationship with Cody Rhodes (“oh, the Legacy Guy with the ABS?”) to her thoughts on Miss California and gay marriage.  Were those shades worn to cover up a long night and/or a grueling flight?… or was Beth trying to go incognito since in her own words, she is “way more famous than Susan Boyle.”  We love the way she flips her hair, and the fact that she thinks she is “sexy… I know... seriously.” What confidence our diva Beth has as she views and signs her magazine photos for the marks, stating “every side is my good side.”  You go, girl, and next time, keep smiling for our “fancy” and “pretty nice camera.” tags: video candid footage paparazzi

Dean Malenko cast a grey shadow over an otherwise sunny day in Buffalo by getting in our face and demanding we shut off the video camera.  After our camera man tried to enlighten Rosa that her swarming fans were none too adoring (her real fans are the ones who buy her photos on eBay from those same airport fanatics who surround her at the baggage checks), "tough guy" Dean tried to play the role of enforcer but what he asked us to do on public property was clearly a violation of our rights.  And thanks to him, he altered Rosa’s mood so much that she shoved her cell phone in our face as she exited as if WE were the enemy!  Rosa, we just want to promote your attractive face and sunny disposition, along with any message you want to get out to your fan base (by the way, if anyone wants to translate her message, please leave a comment below).  And, please tell Dean to relax and back off the next time.  We’re not the enemy and it seems that the gorgeous and cheerful Kelly Kelly was the only one in your group who “got it” th at day.

Jillian Hall doesn’t want to take sides against our camera man and the marks so she just decides to smile, pose and take off to the baggage carousel to avoid any further controversy.  Although she states the marks are not annoying, we’ve got her thinking!

Video Candid Footage Paparazzi

In this exclusive WWE candid video footage interview by our paparazzi, Kofi Kingston refused to dis the marks and would rather think of them as his "dedicated fans" instead of unemployed, annoying followers looking to make a quick buck selling autographs on eBay.  We suppose the worst nightmare of any professional entertainer would be to descend an escalator in an airport with no fan base waiting.  Kofi’s appreciation of these legions and his insight that "it’s better that people want to see us than not want to see us" isn’t too far "off the mark!"

We caught up at the gym with Val Venis, who is still working out and staying in shape since his departure from the WWE over four months ago.  If he ever makes a comeback, maybe he can teach the new generation of Wrestlers a few things, namely how to pump Excitement, Energy and Electricity into the air!  We couldn’t agree with you more, Val - Susan Boyle rocked the house in London and we miss the good ole days when your breed of Wrestlers knew how to truly rock the house!  And you’ve proven you can still pump some excitement into the air with your "Hello, Ladies" signature trademark.

Justin Credible took time out from his workout to give us his thoughts on some current events.  Not too many people will disagree with his assessment that the first U.S. face transplant recipient is a "sicko" and "insane" for planning to take her husband back after he is released from jail for blowing her face away.  He also shared that he thinks the hype over the swine flu is total "BS" and Brett Hart is the "greatest of all time" in the world of wrestling.  Justin’s cooperation was appreciated and it’s nice to see that some wrestlers actually have an opinion and half a brain!
