WWE Database Leak Exposes Millions of Users’ Data

Security firm Kromtech Bob Dyachenko revealed to Forbes that he uncovered a huge unprotected WWE database that contains information on more than 3 million users. Dyachenko claimed that it was open to anyone who knew the web address to search.

The breach includes addresses, educational background, earnings and ethnicity as well as customers’ children’s age ranges and genders. This information was reportedly stored on Amazon Web Services S3 server without username or password protection. It’s likely the database was misconfigured by WWE or an IT partner. The same thing happened with other recent leaks on Amazon-hosted infrastructure.

WWE issued the following statement regarding the issue:

“Although no credit card or password information was included, and therefore not at risk, WWE is investigating a potential vulnerability of a database housed on a third party platform.”

“In today’s data-driven world, large companies store information on third party platforms, and unfortunately have been subject to similar vulnerabilities. WWE utilizes leading cybersecurity firms to proactively protect our customer data.””Although no credit card or password information was included, and therefore not at risk, WWE is investigating a potential vulnerability of a database housed on a third party platform.” “In today’s data-driven world, large companies store information on third party platforms, and unfortunately have been subject to similar vulnerabilities.

GFW Officials Have Had Enough of Alberto El Patron Ripping on WWE

We previously noted that Alberto El Patron decided to rip WWE after Sunday’s Slammiversary event went off the air but things didn’t go his way Wednesday night when he attempted again.

Our correspondent at this week’s tapings sent word that El Patron tried to do the same during Wendesday’s tapings, but GFW officials have finally had enough and didn’t allow it. When El Patron grabbed the mic for another shoot, he said “it’s that time of the night where I talk about that company in Stamford.”

Patron would go on to mention how his attorney called him and asked him “what the f–k are you thinking” as he recently “lost enough money from his divorce.” This is when GFW decided to cut his microphone and play his music. El Patron attempted to shout over the music saying he “has enough voice to scream.” His music continued to play louder. El Patron tried to continue before giving up.

WWE Bans Another Term from WWE Programming

It appears that WWE has banned yet another word from being used on WWE programming.

Bryan Alvarez mentioned on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Live that the company is no longer using the term “Money in the Bank Briefcase.” Moving forward announcers and talent will refer to the briefcase as the “Money in the Bank contract.”

Seth Rollins Teases Match Against The Rock at WrestleMania

Vince Russo’s The Brand Recap – Family Before Wrestling, Ripping on His Son, When did Wrestlers Become Marks? More!

Russo mentions that he can’t stop thinking about the new Kevin Owens documentary, where Owens was shown backstage after his Universal Title win crying with Sami Zayn, Triple H and others. He talked about this on his show yesterday, and it’s been stuck in his head ever since. He can’t believe that ‘professional’ wrestlers are crying backstage over being scripted to win a fake Title.

Russo informs that he has worked with some of the biggest stars the industry ever produced. King Kong Bundy, Hogan, The Rock, Austin, they were all professionals. They came to work every day, did their job, and went home at the end of the night. They carried themselves perfectly, and they knew that they were working in the entertainment business.

Somewhere along the line, the wrestlers became marks. He knows that this doesn’t apply to all the performers, because he doesn’t picture guys like Braun Strowman or Roman Reigns acting this way. For the most part however, today’s generation of wrestlers are taking themselves and the business so seriously that they forget about the actual important things in life.
