Wrestler Accuses ‘Love Sponge’ of Hate Call
By KARINA BROWN

(CN) – Pro wrestler Awesome Kong claims a radio host called her in the middle of the night from a blocked number and threatened to "’sucker punch’ her until she stopped breathing," adding, "You’ll be dead like all those other niggers in Haiti you fat black bitch!" Kong, whose real name is Kia Stevens, says AT&T refuses to identity the caller, who she believes is Todd Clem, aka Bubba the Love Sponge.
    
Stevens, who works for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, says she got into a backstage spat with Clem, a Total Nonstop contracted interviewer and radio host known as Bubba the Love Sponge, after Clem disparaged efforts to raise money for victims of the earthquake in Haiti.
    
Stevens claims Clem called her at her Tampa home from a blocked number at 5 a.m. on Feb. 10. She says the caller said, "’This is Bubba the Love Sponge here at (and at this point the caller named a radio station’ and then alluded to the fact that the call was being broadcast on the radio. "The caller then started talking in a stream, threatening to come to the petitioner’s house and ‘sucker punch’ her until she stopped breathing and then said, ‘You’ll be dead like all those other niggers in Haiti you fat black bitch … Fuck Haiti!"
    
Stevens claims that when she did not respond, "the male who had identified himself as ‘Bubba the Love Sponge’ stated ‘What d’ya think about that, Monkey Kong?’ … ‘What? Those big fat Jimmy Walker lips ain’t talking shit now, huh?’"
    
Stevens says she recognized Clem’s voice, having heard his radio show.
    
According to media reports, Clem claimed on his show that Stevens had approached him backstage after a Jan. 18 wrestling match and "sucker-punched" him in the face several times while yelling "This is for Haiti!"
    
Kong reportedly served a two-day suspension for the altercation.
   
Stevens sued Clem and AT&T, demanding that the phone company release records that would identity the caller.
    
She is represented in Hillsborough County Court by Chris Mancini of Fort Lauderdale.
