& DESCRIPTION |

YEAR |

 JACQUELINERecently departed veteran, Jacqueline may have been cut by TNA this year but the fans show that they still remember the former two time Women’s Champion. She makes this year’s #50, down three spots from last year. |
47
|
 |
 JACKIE GAYDAIt’s a twenty spot drop for former WWE Diva and TNA Knockout, Jackie Gayda. Despite having two kids, Gayda showed fans she’s still a bombshell when she appeared at WrestleMania 25. |
27
|
 |
 TRACI BROOKSTNA’s first ever Playboy covergirl, Traci may be getting it all out for the magazine but fans have shown they’re not as interested as they were last year. Traci drops from 33 to 48 this year. |
33
|
 |
 TIFFANYThe first new entry on this year’s 50 Sexiest Divas list comes in the form of ECW GM, Tiffany. Could her office chic look have something to do with it? |
—
|
 |
 KAREN ANGLEIt hasn’t been a great year for Karen Angle and adding to it, last year’s #23 falls 23 places this year. Lack of exposure after being axed by TNA may have had a helping hand. |
23
|
 |
 DAWN MARIEFormer WWE Diva and ECW original, Dawn Marie takes a bump on this year’s list too — but not as steep as others. She charts at 45 down from last year’s 39. |
39
|
 |
 CHYNAShe may have been away from wrestling for several years, but our readers seem to think Chyna is still sexy. She falls from 34 last year however. |
34
|
 |
 LACEY VON ERICHYoung upstart Lacey Von Erich is set to be a big star for Wrestlicious & makes her 50 Sexiest debut also, charting at #43. |

|
 |
 NIDIAFormer Tough Enough champion, Nidia is back for a second year and surprisingly moves up three spots on the 50 Sexiest countdown. |
45
|
 |
 MOLLY HOLLYOne of the most warmly remembered ex-Divas, Molly Holly, returned for a brief stint at WrestleMania this year but that didn’t help, as she doesn’t quite match her spot last year. |
35
|
 |
 TAYLOR WILDEMaking her 50 Sexiest debut is former Knockouts Champion, Taylor Wilde. Wilde became TNA’s own blonde sensation last year but pushed the envelope compared to other blonde bombshells. Thumbtacks anyone? |
—
|
 |
 NIKKI BELLAInterestingly, only one Bella makes the 50 Sexiest Divas list: Nikki. Yeah, I guess Nikki is the sexier Bella, judging by your votes? Nikki makes her debut at #39. |
—
|
 |
 KRISTAL MARSHALLDespite being released two years ago, Kristal is still looking every bit the Diva, turning heads in the fitness industry — and all this post-baby! No wonder she’s moved up the Sexiest list this year! |
41
|
 |
 LILIAN GARCIAOutgoing Raw ring announcer, Lilian Garcia has already fallen 17 spots down from last year and she’s not even gone yet. We’ll miss that set of lungs… |
20
|
 |
 MADISON RAYNEOne of the rookie Divas on the TNA roster, Madison Rayne makes her 50 Sexiest debut this year. And as part of the Beautiful People, we expected nothing less! |
—
|
 |
 JENNIFER BLAKEIt’s a surprising debut for SHIMMER’s Jennifer Blake. The young Canadian, known for her platinum blonde hair is ‘Girl Dynamite’ indeed! |
—
|
 |
 CHRISTY HEMMERecently returned Knockout, Christy Hemme drops 20 spots on this year’s list. Has Christy lost her sexy? |
14
|
 |
 SHELLY MARTINEZShe’s a former Diva and former Knockout but it looks like being away from the industry has hurt her. Shelly Martinez drops to #33 from last year’s 19. |
19
|
 |
 ANGELA FONGMaking her Sexiest list debut is the trail-blazing FCW Diva, Angela Fong. Never has there been such a buzz about a developmental Diva & that translates to a good debut for a girl that has yet to get national exposure. |
—
|
 |
 STEPHANIE MCMAHONHolding onto her spot from last year, Stephanie McMahon is still #31 on the 50 Sexiest list. Sure she’s a backstage face these days, but you voters seem to remember her! |
31
|
 |
 LENA YADAIn a huge leap from last year, former ECW Diva Lena Yada climbs to #30 on this year’s 50 Sexiest list. Lena has already wrestled for ChickFight and will soon be seen in Wrestlicious. |
48
|
 |
 STACY KEIBLERAnd taking a giant tumble is one of the most well remembered ex-Divas, Stacy Keibler. She falls to 29 from last year’s 11. |
11

 |
 KATIE LEAIt’s good news for Katie Lea, as the ECW Diva moves up 9 spots from last year! Has her gothic new look had something to do with it? |

—
|
 |
 VELVET SKYThree spots up for the Beautiful People’s Velvet Sky. She follows in the footsteps of Madison Rayne. Can Angelina Love make the list too? |

 ALICIA FOXA strong debut for Alicia Fox at #22. Since debuting last July, Alicia has been a member of all 3 WWE rosters in seemingly record time. |
—
|
 |
 DAFFNEYSpeaking of big debuts, TNA Knockout Daffney got a renewal on her wrestling career this year. Once a huge part of WCW, it’s good to have her back. And you agree as she debuts at #21. |
21
|
 |
 ANGELINA LOVETwo time Knockouts Champion falls three places from last year. This year, she emerged as the leader of the Beautiful People but that wasn’t enough to stop her from falling! |
17
|

16
|
 |
 JILLIANShe knows you want her… because Jillian jumps several spots to this year’s #16, up from last year’s #21. |
21
|
 |
 LAYLAIt’s not great news for the Diva voted Most Stylish last year. Layla drops out of the top 10 and has to make do with #15 this year. |
10
|

13
|
 |
 CANDICEIt’s 7 spots down for Candice Michelle, who was released earlier this year. Admist rumours of weight gain contributing to her release, it seems fans have decided she’s not as sexy as she was last year. |
6
|
 |
 KELLY KELLYAlso dropping out of the top 10 is Kelly Kelly. The youngster of the pack falls 4 spots this year. |
8
|
 |

4
|
 |

44
|
 |
 LITARepresenting the Diva legends, four time Women’s Champion, Lita drops four places from last year. However staying in the top 10 shows what a hold our past Divas have on the audience. |
5
|
 |
 MICHELLE MCCOOLIt’s been a whirlwind year for Michelle, first ever Divas Champ and now the Women’s Champ. So it’s only fitting she breaks into the top 10, moving up four spots from last year. |

2
|
 |
 GAIL KIMThis time last year, she was a Knockout. Now she’s a Diva and that helps her jump four spots to this year’s top 5. |
9
|
 |
 TRISH STRATUSThree years since she left, Trish Stratus continues to guarantee Stratusfaction. The legend falls one spot from last year, but still lands herself a plum spot. |
3
|
 |
 MICKIE JAMESFour time Women’s Champion and current Divas Champion, Mickie James breaks the mould of sexy by rising four spots to this year’s #3. |
7
|
 |

15
|
 |
 MELINAProving to be the quintessential Diva for the modern day, Melina retains her crown! There’s no denying that she is a perfect mix of athleticism and sex appeal. Doubling the votes of her nearest rival, Melina is still your sexiest woman in wrestling! |
