Every week all us women’s wrestling tune in to RAW, SmackDown, or ECW hoping to see our favorite Diva in action. With all the glitz and glamour of WWE, it’s easy to forget where our girls got started. That’s why I’ve decided to send to guys on a trip to the past, to see your favorite Diva’s humble beginnings. Let’s kick things off with one of Smackdown’s newest Divas: Alicia Fox.

Wow, what a difference a few years can make. In her first singles match against Beth Phoenix, Alicia looked like she was in the middle of her first week of training. She wasn’t horrible, but the whole match seemed really stiff and rehearsed, a far cry from her recent work. As you can see above Alicia has surpassed expectations by putting out a great match with a season veteran like Natalya. If she can keep up this progression, I imagine we’ll see her with gold before too long.

Katie Lea has been competing for way longer than the average Diva and it’s evident in these matches. The biggest difference between now and then is Katie Lea personality. Katie doesnt have the same charisma that made her the top heel in OVW. Hopefully, with the scarce Diva roster on ECW, Katie can stand out and make a name for herself

Mickie, Mickie, Mickie. Mickie James‘ skill level in OVW is about the same as the present day. The biggest change Mickie made for her WWE debut was her image.Unfortunely, Mickie didn’t dress as well as she wrestled. The style change is definately welcome. I have a feeling all those bright colors and mismatched sneakers wouldn’t fly in WWE. I guess theres no lights in the locker rooms in Kentucky.
