Mickie James posted a new blog on the WWE Universe website today. In it, she reveals she has a MRSA staph infection in her leg and this is a recurrence of an earlier staph infection she got when in Mexico. The infection was very bad by the time she was treated as she underwent emergency surgery to get the infection out of her blood in her hometown of Richmond, Virginia. Much longer and it could have resulted in her leg being amputated.
Mickie says she is doing all she can to be able to work Wrestlemania as the doctors have told her she will not be cleared. She addressed her country music career saying she is postponing the release of her album “Strangers to Angels” to mid-May.

- WWE showed a WrestleMania recall on RAW this week of Bill Goldberg pinning Brock Lesnar in 2004 as a way to plug Steve Austin’s guest host gig but the company has actually been talking about Goldberg and trying to get some kind of relationship going with him.
They realize he won’t come back and wrestle but they’re thinking of some kind of Legends deal to use his likeness in video games and such. Goldberg could also be possible for next year’s Hall of Fame in Atlanta since they’re running low on “main eventers” to induct. (Credit:Wrestling Observer Newsletter)
