Former WWE superstar Chyna is finally getting back in the ring ... taking on 9 dudes at the same time ... except it's for a porno movie.

TMZ has learned ... Chyna was totally serious about pursuing a XXX career ... and just wrapped up on a Royal Rumble-inspired flick in which she locks up with a bunch of dudes who all look like famous wrestlers ... including a wannabe Hulk Hogan, wannabe Triple H, wannabe Ric Flair and more.

Published | Updated

Another come-from-behind victory for Kobe Bryant ... sucking face with the woman who has now taken all of his homes, Vanessa Bryant ... and now TMZ can confirm the two are working on a reconciliation.

Vanessa showed up for the Lakers Valentine's Day victory over the Atlanta Hawks. The two shared a kiss in the tunnel on the way into the locker room.

TMZ broke the story ... Vanessa filed for divorce in December, and they have already sealed the property settlement deal in which Vanessa got all 3 Newport Beach estates.

But sources told us at the time Vanessa filed ... don't be surprised if she goes back to Bryant.

Published | Updated

New York Jets interception-machine Mark Sanchez might actually have done something right this year ... and her name's Kate Upton -- this according to the super model herself.

Rumors have been spreading like wildfire ... Mark and Kate are an item -- but we asked the buxom Victoria's Secret angel straight up ... are you single ... and she played coy, replying, "What do you think?"

We pressed a little more ... asking if Mark was the mystery man -- Kate hedged, responding, "I don't know!"

As for the real truth -- Kate tells us, "It's whatever you think!"

So here's what we think -- if Mark had any game, he would have AT LEAST made the playoffs.

NY Knicks Star Jeremy Lin I Wanna be Just Like Tim Tebow!

Published | Updated

Jeremy Lin is the biggest sensation to hit sports since Tim Tebow burst on the scene -- and wouldn't you know it ... Lin says Tebow is one of his biggest inspirations.

In case you've missed out on Linsanity -- Jeremy has come out of nowhere to be the New York Knicks starting point guard. He's scored more points in his first three career starts than any modern era NBA player ... and he's a devout Christian.

Before dropping 38 on Kobe Bryant and the Lakers last night, Lin -- who said he may become a minister after his playing days -- told 95.7 FM in San Francisco that he's inspired by and really respects Tebow.

Lin explained, "I actually want to be able to do some of the things that he does in terms of the amount of charity work and the non-profit work, and the way he impacts people off the field. I think that is what is most inspiring to me about him."

If this keeps up, church attendance is going to go through the roof.

NY Giants star running back Ahmad Bradshaw has apparently developed an extra-special relationship with former "Jersey Shore" star Angelina Pivarnick ... TMZ has learned ... but the Staten Island Dump insists they're NOT officially dating.

Angelina was at Saddle Ranch in L.A. yesterday ... when we asked point blank if they were together ... and we were met with an uncomfortable silence ... followed by, "I'm not dating him ... like, no."

Pivarnick explained, "We've hung out together ... we're really close, he's a cool dude."

"I think he's a hot black ... I'm not gonna deny that. I would be lying if I told you he wasn't hot."

Angelina recently posted a photo of the two lookin' all cozy at a NY club a few weeks ago -- they look platonic to you?

We called Bradshaw's agent for comment ... so far, no response.

So, we gotta ask ...

Lin broke the news in D.C. yesterday on his way to the team bus ... telling a photog, "Yeah, I'm gonna go get my own place soon."

23-year-old Lin has been taking the NBA by storm ... ever since the Knicks threw the undrafted Ivy leaguer into the lineup earlier this month.

Lin had told reporters he was staying on his brother's couch, because he didn't have a guaranteed contract and he wanted more career security before plunking down his hard-earned cash on a pad.

But now that he's been KILLING it around the league, dropping 23 points and 10 assists against the Wizards last night ... seems Lin is confident this whole basketball thing could actually work out.

Deion Sanders' Aunt Laura Jones Yeah I Beat the Crap :: 0208-deion-pilar-audio-sanders-tmz-ex

Deion Sanders' aunt Laura Jones just gave a SHOCKING blow-by-blow to her violent altercation with Pilar inside Deion's Texas mansion Monday -- admitting she grabbed Pilar's hair ... and beat the holy hell out of her.

49-year-old Laura -- who's married to Deion's uncle -- called in to Dallas K104 this morning, claiming she stopped by Deion's house to take care of some housekeeping items (a job Deion pays her to do) and Pilar flipped.

According to Laura, Pilar objected to her being in the house, and demanded she "get the f**k out." The argument escalated quickly, and Laura says Pilar brushed against her in a threatening way ... so Laura responded by grabbing Pilar's hair and hitting her.

This is where it gets NUTS -- Laura says Pilar then ripped Laura's dress clean off during the melee, leaving her practically naked, and tumbled backwards down the staircase. Laura says Pilar then grabbed a bunch of knives from the kitchen, and brandished them while she called 911.

Right then, Laura says Deion came downstairs to see what the ruckus was about -- and Pilar yelled at the dispatcher, "My husband is attacking me!!!"

According to Laura, the cops showed up minutes later -- and Pilar refused to put away the knives ... so they cuffed her and threw in the back of a cruiser. Laura says the children were present the entire time.

But Laura claims charges were never filed against Pilar because Deion intervened -- and got Pilar off the hook.

Laura also submitted an alleged audio recording of the fight -- claiming she acquired it during her brawl with Pilar ... who's allegedly been recording everything in the house to use as leverage in her divorce.

Deion Sanders' Aunt Laura Jones Yeah I Beat the Crap :: 0208-deion-pilar-sanders-audio

Pilar Sanders SUES Deion 'Orchestrated' Ambush ... On Me!!!

Published | Updated

Deion Sanders "orchestrated" a violent attack on his wife ... designed to physically force her out of his Texas mansion ... this according to a new lawsuit filed by Pilar Sanders.

In a fast and furious legal response to the altercation at the home this week, Pilar filed suit against Deion and a woman named Laura Jones, the woman accused of carrying out the attack.

According to the documents, Deion summoned Laura -- his "fake aunt" -- to help him physically remove Pilar from the home on Feb. 6 so Deion could change the locks and bar her from returning.

Pilar claims Jones is legally banned from entering the home ... but she entered the place anyway ... so Pilar says she demanded that the woman leave immediately. Instead, Pilar claims, the woman "squared off and took a swing at [Pilar] hitting her in the eye."

Pilar says Laura "continued to hit, slap, punch, choke, push and kick" her ... causing various injuries. Pilar says she was so scared, she grabbed a KITCHEN KNIFE and prepared to defend herself until cops arrived.

Now, Pilar wants a judge to issue a restraining order against the woman ... and she wants Deion to fork over a check for the mental and physical pain.

After the incident, Deion claimed Laura was only at the home to fix his phone system and said Pilar's account is completely untrue.

Barry Bonds Free to Swing 'Dangerous' Bats ... Again

Published | Updated

Barry Bonds has federal approval to pickup a "dangerous weapon" -- namely, a baseball bat -- thanks to a new court order.

Bonds is appealing his sentence for felony obstruction of justice -- but for now he's free on a few conditions ... one of which is he cannot possess any "firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or other dangerous weapon."

Barry must want to take some batting practice -- because according to docs filed yesterday ... a federal judge has approved his request to make an exception for baseball bats.

Anyone who saw Bonds slug one of his 762 home runs knows ... a bat (with or without a syringe) should be considered a dangerous weapon in his hands.

Kobe Bryant Absolved in Church Assault Case

Published | Updated

Kobe Bryant is no sinner ... so says the San Diego City Attorney's Office ... which decided it will NOT pursue charges against the NBA star over an altercation at a local church last year.

Bryant had been accused of flipping out on Thomas Hagos at St. Therese of Carmel Church back in August -- because Bryant believed Hagos snapped his pic on a cell phone during services.

Hagos claimed Bryant wrestled the phone out of his hand, injuring his wrist ... but ultimately found NO pictures in the phone.

Cops investigated the situation ... and now the City Attorney has decided there is not enough evidence to prove Kobe did anything wrong.

The C.A. tells TMZ, "Based upon our extensive investigation and interview of independent witnesses, we’ve concluded that charges cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt."

Case closed.
