Here’s a clip of Belgian midfielder Jonathan Legear driving a porsche into a convenience store at 5:30 in the morning. Looks like Jonathan should’ve spent more time on lebreak and less time on legears. (via Last Angry Fan)

Pro wrestling star John Cena was involved in a car accident on the Schuylkill Expressway in Philadelphia on Monday.

Fox 29 has confirmed Cena was riding as a passenger in a vehicle. A spokeswoman for the WWE said Cena was not hurt in the accident.

TMZ says Cena was riding in a vehicle that was rear-ended by a tractor trailer.

He’s fine and will still appear on tonight’s show, but #prayforcena has already taken over as the #1 trending topic. As a result, here’s our poll of the week:

- To nominate a comment for one of the top 10 of the night, be sure to reply with +1. That’ll make it easier for me to differentiate between the 2,000-or-so comments that are left.

We’ve obviously known for quite some time that Hulk Hogan and his wife, Linda, had gone through a nasty divorce in 2009. But a few weeks ago, the St. Petersburg Times finally revealed the details of that divorce and holy hell Hogan got suplexed.

Details from the settlement show Linda Bollea received $7.44 million of the couple’s $10.41 million that was held in bank and investment accounts. Terry Bollea got the remaining $2.97 million.

They also agreed to sell all of their properties and Linda receives $3 million of all property sales first, and then they’ll split all profits after that. Additionally, Linda took a bunch of Hulk’s cars and she gets a nice chunk of his personal brand earnings. This deal is so bad that even the NBA owners are like, “Dammmmmmmmmn.”

And now the news gets even worse for the Hogan family, who are no strangers to courtrooms after they eventually settled with the family of John Graziano – the former marine who will spend the rest of his life being treated by nurses because Nick drives like an asshole – for what is rumored to be $5 million. So it’s only fitting that Nick is in trouble again because of his driving. A woman is suing Hogan because of injuries she incurred when the two were involved in a car accident two years ago. God, I hate when those injuries just sneak up on you.

Former WWE and TNA wrestling star Matt Hardy was arrested on Saturday in North Carolina for suspicion of driving while intoxicated after he drove his 2009 Corvette off the road and into a tree. Hardy wasn’t injured, but was released from TNA within the day with a quick statement that didn’t even wish him well in his future endeavors and included the phrase “already under suspension from the company.” That suspension was reportedly for excessive lateness, but probably had more to do with a YouTube video wherein Matt and his brother Jeff (currently awaiting trial for a 2009 arrest on drug charges) hold down Matt’s girlfriend and taze her.

Honestly it’s a confusing jumble of pro wrestling mess, but Matt, who is not afraid to be the most obnoxious person on the entire Internet, was quick to call conspiracy and deny all charges.

I took a? breathalyzer immediately on the spot and it read clean, zero, nothing. Think about peeps! There’s more to this story than meets the eye. MATTHEW

There are two sides to every story, right?

Then, of course, the mug shot found its way onto the Internet. I will juxtapose that image with Matt’s explanation for it, because “I was drunk and drove into a tree” is way less rational and reasonable than “I am being reborn as a miracle-working angel”. Uh…

When the side windows glass smashed into my face, arms, & neck, some of the blood that did felt almost angelic. I went from being afraid to die to feeling like I was almost being reborn with some sort of an ABSOLUTE PURE LIFE-FORCE. It was the most amazing thing I’ve every experience, I felt like I’d just received the blood of an angel flowing inside me-I know this sounds crazy! Due to these, I only have urges to help people. And miraculously, all my vices are gone.

Amen Friends,

MATTHEW

So who do we believe? The police officers influenced by a moderate amount of celebrity, or the aging, abusive pro wrestler on so many drugs that he believes a car accident granted him supernatural powers? Some wrestling tragedies come out of nowhere — the death of Macho Man Randy Savage, for example — and some happen in slow little steps. Like most wrestling fans, I wish the Hardys the best and hope they can get their sh*t together but am pretty tired of having to watch them fail.

The banner image is from an article on Huffington Post yesterday about reports from Media Takeout that Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom and his wife Khloe Kardashian were in a horrific, terrifying, catastrophic car accident and apparently almost died in the process. In fact, Media Takeout called the wreck “DEVASTATING” while describing how Odom’s new car “SMASHED” into a motorcyclist while Odom was DRIVING TO A BARBER SHOP. Sorry, I was bitten by the sensationalist bug there for a second.

In reality, the accident was pretty bad… for the motorcyclist and a pedestrian. Lamar and Khloe – or Khlomar, as they’ve asked me to call them – are just fine.

The cyclist is now in ELMHURST hospital in Queens. Early reports are that a YOUNG BOY – who was a pedestrian IN THE VICINITY when the accident occurred was also SERIOUSLY INJURED.

We’re told that neither Lamar, nor his wife Khloe Kardashian who is in NYC with him, were injured. (Via Media Takeout)

Seriously, the people at Media Takeout write like they have Tourette’s, but the main emphasis in this report is on Khloe being unharmed. Mainly because it would have been remarkable for her to be injured when she wasn’t even with her husband. But I know I shouldn’t be surprised that a tabloid gossip site like MTO would stoop to posting misleading headlines to attract traffic (says the guy throwing out 50-page slideshows of Kate Upton’s big ol’ bags) but I expect a little more out of Huffington Post. I’m not sure why, but I do. As for MTO, though, I think the site’s ambitious headline writing and target audience can best be summed up by commenter, urboysdreamgirl504…

You might be asking yourself why I’m writing a blog post about former Olympic ice skater Nancy Kerrigan. “Why?” you might ask. “Why? Why?” Well, since you asked that many times, I’ll tell you. Nancy Kerrigan is every bit as important to 90s popular culture as Kurt Cobain or Nickelodeon Gak, so when she’s in a car accident it should be considered news. I mean, I guess it shouldn’t, but it’s pretty funny to think that Kerrigan is the protagonist in her own Final Destination and has been barely avoiding death for the last twenty years.

Via NBC Sports:

Kerrigan’s tire flew off of her Chevy Tahoe, and that tire nearly went through the windshield of a passing minivan. The driver of the other vehicle says she was bracing herself for the impact of that tire when Kerrigan’s vehicle hit the front of her minivan. Apparently Kerrigan’s tire had just been repaired before it flew off, forcing her car to swerve.

“We just had an accident. It’s a little shaken up…I’m glad everybody and the kids are okay. It’s scary…it’s a scary thing,” said Kerrigan.

Tonya Harding was supposed to be in that accident, but ended up sitting in a parked car in her driveway all day, crying about how her shoelaces won’t tie. In a less funny joke, Kerrigan was in the Wakefield Mass area to visit the trial of her brother Mark, who is facing manslaughter charges. I hope the court finds out he’s just Shawn Eckhardt in a fright wig.
