TMZ.com is reporting that former WWE star Maven Huffman has completed a stint in a WWE sponsored rehab program, and Huffman feels the program saved his life. The following is an excerpt from the article:

Former "Surreal Life" star Maven Huffman has finished his stint in rehab following a major prescription drug arrest … and says if it weren't for the WWE helping him out, he'd be dead.

TMZ broke the story … Maven accepted rehab assistance from the WWE after he was arrested back in April for scamming more than 1,000 prescription pills from various doctors in the Florida area.

Now, after completing 50 days in a rehab facility, Maven tells us he has moved into a sober living facility and "has never felt better."

"I owe the WWE my life for helping me through this situation."
