With Cyber Sunday Halloween Costume Contest set to go down this Sunday, I felt inspired to assign costumes to each participating Diva. Although several Divas have already shared what their costume will be, I’ve gone ahead and came up with my own ideas, making sure to avoid the more cliche and skanky costumes. I mean, I don’t know how many times you can see a sexy nurse before losing your mind. Without further adieu, take a look at the costume options below and cast a vote for your favorite!

Women’s Champ Beth Phoenix is known for her brute strength and intimidating demeanor, so it’s easy to picture the Glamazon as She-Hulk, lawyer-by-day cousin to the famous Jade Giant. Like She-Hulk, Beth is statuesque and beautiful, and could totally kick some evil-doer ass. She’s also got the sass to match. Just paint Beth green and boom – you’ve got it!
• Get the look: Purple leotard, long black wig, black fingerless gloves, black combat boots, green body paint
Brie Bella, or is it Nicole Bella? Whoever it is, she’s constantly playing switcheroo, ducking under the ring at a moment’s notice to switch places with her twin. With the mysterious thought in mind, Brie could dress as a Masquerade Countess, brandishing a mask as her “disguise” and giving a new meaning to hiding your true identity.

Candice Michelle has always been a bit of a sexpot, even as a babyface. Thus, who would be a better fit for the “innocent yet sexy” icon known as Betty Boop? She has the dark hair that can be styled into the trademark short hairdo, and a form-fitting red dress would easily complete the look. All she needs is a white and furry four-legged friend.

Eve doesn’t have the most booming WWE career, but she does hold a bit of a resemblance to Judy Garland, no? So why not have her dress up as the famous Dorothy Gale from “The Wizard of Oz”? Just tie her hair into pigtails, put on the gingham dress, and find some ruby red slippers. Maybe even Toto in a basket? Hell, maybe she can click her heels together and wish for screen time! Perhaps the Wizard could lend her a career.

Jillian Hall, as you are well aware, is an aspiring singer, so of course her costume needs to reflect that. She’s already dressed up as Britney Spears, so that’s out of the question. So what about a more traditional look? Jillian could go all Liza Minnelli in “Cabaret” as dress as a cabaret singer – complete with black vest, shorts, pantyhose, boots, and a bowler hat. A song and dance routine would be required, of course.

Remember when Katie Lea‘s brother Paul Burchill was fixated on pirates? He looked like something straight out of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films. So wouldn’t it be a funny reference to those days if Katie dressed up as a pirate herself? I’m not talking the slutty “pirate wench” crap – she could mimic Keira Knightley’s more masculine look from “Dead Man’s Chest” with a long waistcost, vest, trousers, a white billowy shirt, cuffed pirate boots, and a floppy hat. Of course, a sword would be required as well. This would be a more “real” pirate look, and even though Elizabeth is hardly a historically accurate depiction of female pirates, it’s a thousand times more plausible than that “wench” crap..

Kelly Kelly could pull off the blonde genie look flawlessly if she donned the pink getup worn by Jeannie in the classic TV show “I Dream of Jeannie”. And really, the act isn’t tough at all – just fold your arms and blink! Now getting in the bottle? That’s a whole different story.

Layla is the Queen to William Regal‘s King, so why not expand on that royal persona and dress up as the most famous Queen of all? Of course, I’m speaking of Queen Elizabeth I. Seeing Layla in the voluminous dress and red wig would be priceless. And hell, at least she wouldn’t have to fake the English accent.

Lena Yada often has the sleek, sexy look of a female secret agent, so what better costume to don than one of Agent 99 from the famous “Get Smart TV show? Perhaps she could go for more of a Anne Hathaway-inspired disguise look from the recent movie, wearing a short wig, sexy dress , and a well-place concealed gun to pull out at a moment’s notice.

I think we can all agree that Catwoman is a bit played out. So what other Batman villainess is available? Maria, I think, could pull off a mean Poison Ivy, with her red hair playing a big part. The green getup and dramatic makeup would be easy to put together, and would demonstrate a bit of that fashionable creativity that Maria keeps talking about. Maria’s a big comic book fan too, so I’m sure she’d be all gung-ho about that idea.

It’s plain to see that Maryse is gorgeous, maybe even comparable to the famous Greek myth of Helen of Troy, known as “the face that launched a thousand ships”, the woman who was the cause of the Trojan War. Her beauty is legendary, and the serene blonde look emulated by Diane Kruger in “Troy” would be a perfect one to mimic. Maryse would just need to find a Grecian gown and she’s set!

As a blonde beauty herself, Michelle McCool could pull off an Ann Darrow look flawlessly. Ann, of course, is the famous female abducted by the giant ape in “King Kong”. The iconic white dress and wavy blonde hair are simple enough to find, but the look isn’t complete without a primate friend.
• Get the look: Full costume, King Kong doll
Mickie James has the quirky, cutesy thing down pat. I don’t think there’s a better costume combo of that than Raggedy Ann, the old school doll friend of Raggedy Andy. The red yarn wig, bonnet, and blue dress would look adorable on her, and she could even paint the red nose and stitches on her face for added cuteness.

Natalya is a firecracker, constantly yelling and showing her extreme strength and intimidating physique. The famous female warrior Xena would be a nice fit for Natalya, right down to the trademark warrior yell. A black wig, armor, boots, and a sword would make her ready for business.

I’ll admit that I don’t know that much about her, but newcomer Tiffany definitely hasa mod look about her. Her blonde tresses remind me of those of Edie Sedgwick, 60s icon and famous muse of artist Andy Warhol. A shorter blonde wig would be needed, of course, as well as a short shift dress and knee-high boots. Heavy, dramatic eye makeup is her trademark, so she’ll need to stock up on the liquid eyeliner and false eyelashes.

No matter your political affiliation, you can’t deny that Vice Presidental candidate Sarah Palin is a hot topic right now. Victoria, as we all know, always goes for the goofy and out-there costumes. Political costumes are about as goofy as you can get, no? So why shouldn’t Victoria pull a Tiny Fey and copy Sarah Palin’s look, right down to the famous accent? All she would need is a pulled-up hairdo, a pair of glasses, some bright business attire, and a few winks here and there.
