All this emphasis on WWE, it’s time to mix things up a little bit! This Thursday night, TNA hopes to capitalise on the influx of WWE fans heading to Orlando for WrestleMania with a live edition of iMPACT! on Spike TV. On that broadcast, you will get to vote for Awesome Kong‘s opponent in a live interactive vote! Although it is unknown at this time, the pool of Knockouts you can vote from – all will be revealed during the broadcast on Thursday night.

Granted, it is rather like WWE’s Cyber Sunday, but there are no T&A fulfill your fantasy battle royals here folks! Given the amazing action we’ve come to expect from the TNA Knockouts over the past few months, this should be just another notch on their belt as the continue to dominate women’s wrestling in North America! We advise you to tune in, this Thursday night, iMPACT! on Spike TV – if only to see how this groundbreaking interactive vote plays out!

Turning a Car Crash into a 25-Car Pile Up


Well, I think it’s suffice to say that the BunnyMania match just got worse. As was just announced on RAW, Ashley will be taking Candice‘s place in the match, as Candice had clavicle surgery earlier today.

Question: Why not stick a competent wrestler in the match? (*cough* Mickie) I know Ashley posed for Playboy and all, but Mickie doesn’t wrestle like a two-year-old and break like a china doll. Do the math, monkeys. Barf.

Edit: Now with a super-professional-looking match photo!

gailkim-interview.jpg

Diva Dirt will be dishin’ dirt with Gail Kim very soon, and we want your help to make it happen! Got a burning question you want to put to the very first TNA Knockout Champion? Well we want to hear from you!

Gail is the first woman in professional wrestling history to have held both of the major women’s titles in North America, as a former WWE Women’s Champion and TNA Knockout Champion. She has helped revolutionise the way we see women’s wrestling as part of TNA’s Knockout division and just happens to be one of America’s most eligible females as voted by Forbes magazine!

The Round-Up – March 23, 2008

theroundup.jpg
Get this week’s Diva news rounded up… with commentary! This week we discuss TNA Knockout drama, Lita‘s WWE snub, WrestleMania weather, Candice’s injury, the SmackDown! Diva contest and much more!

• Maria: “I’m Still a Baby” – Maria spoke to the Winnipeg Sun, touching on a (uncomfortable) array of topics, jumping from an encounter with her father to discussing how Playboy has pursued her since she was a teenager. In a possible sign of coercion, (In the WWE? No way!) Maria claimed that “They approached me again and I turned them down again, but WWE came to me two weeks later and said it would be good for me to do it.” Yay for feminism! Click here for the full interview.

Erin – Sounds about right to me. I love how the annual Playboy storyline centers on the “It’s my choice!” mantra, and behind the scenes, they couldn’t contradict themselves more. Does “good for you” translate to “it’ll make you slightly relevant for a few weeks”? Because someone needs to tell them that Playboy’s past its sell date and it’s not really worth the effort anymore.

Melanie – The amount of press Maria has been doing lately is kind of mind-numbing. WWE has really pushed for Maria’s Playboy media-wise, as opposed to Ashley last year. Maybe because no one has a clue what Ashley says half the time? Either way, I can’t wait for this debacle to be over so Maria can sit her ass back down.

Update on Candice Courtesy of Maria

12

The game of “Will she? Won’t she?” continues with Candice Michelle as just one week away from WrestleMania, her BunnyMania tag team partner Maria revealed in an interview that Candice had reinjured her clavicle:

Q: That’s right, Wrestlemania is now only a week away, so what can we expect from your in ring Wrestlemania debut in the playboy bunny match?

A: Well its gonna be a very interesting night, as of right now, Candice Michelle re-broke her clavicle on Monday, and I don’t whats gonna happen with that, she was my tag team partner, and as of right now she has been saying Im gonna do it, no matter what, im gonna be in the ring, but I don’t know how much she can be, and I don’t know how she is gonna be feeling when she gets out there, so it’s my first time ever wrestling at Wrestlemania, so im gonna put all the stops out, Passion is my motivation, and that night im gonna be extremely passionate, especially if im down one partner.

With more twists and turns than an episode of 24, will we learn Candice’s fate tonight on RAW?

Hallelujah! Our Prayers Have Been Answered!

Those of you who sought solace in a high power after news of Candice Michelle‘s injury broke out can finally rest easy. Bust out the glowsticks and turn up that techno, because we bear good news:

According to Main Event Radio in Montreal, Candice Michelle plans to tough it out and work WrestleMania 24 despite injury.

In other words, if you were devastated at the thought that WrestleMania 24’s BotchMania er, BunnyMania match might suck significantly less with replacement player Mickie, never fear – Candice is still here!

Divas’ Got Game

3

Four WWE Divas will be mixing it up with the guys in the 6th annual THQ Superstar Challenge on Thursday, March 27th. Among them are Ashley, Beth Phoenix, Layla and Michelle McCool. WWE.com revealed the brackets and it will be:

  • Beth Phoenix vs Michelle McCool
  • Layla vs Ashley

Yikes, I think Ashley just saw the “vs” part and injured herself. Calm down, it’s a gaming tournament, no wrestling required. Which of the above do you think has the most game? Our money’s on the Glamazon! Vote below:

Torrie at WrestleMania

torrie-returns.jpg

After being away from the Internet for quite a while there, Torrie Wilson has returned to her MySpace (and returned my e-mails finally, yay!) to let us know what’s up with her and drop a little bombshell that’ll have those of us that are Torrie-inclined screaming out loud!

Hey everyone!

Well, I am gearing up to head over to Orlando next week for wrestlemania and am so very excited to see everyone! It feels like forever since I got to hang with the gang and I guess I am gonna be obligated to get loose! I have pretty much just been laying low lately and doing what you do as a store owner.
We have had 2 fashion shows in the last few months and they both went awesome. I go to the chiropractor every single day for 2 hours when I wake up and they put me on a machine that stretches my back constantly for an hour straight and then physical therapy. I feel like it is starting to get a little better, but still pray everyday for the pain to go away. It is amazing that I can hurt this bad when I have never even been near as physical in the ring as some of the other superstars….what can ya do though at this point! I am trying to keep a positive outlook on things!

My store has been doing amazing and it’s such a great feeling to see how fast things are moving. We are already looking into moving our store into a space that is double in size and possibly even another location in Austin. Can’t wait…maybe someday there will be a “jaded” store near you!

I will definately fill you all in on every moment of my trip to Orlando..untill then have a great weekend and Happy Easter!

xoxo Torrie

It wouldn’t be WrestleMania without Torrie, we sure hope she gets a spot on the show as a lumberjack or something! Even if she is injured, it wouldn’t do to have her backstage and not send her out there; especially considering this will be Torrie’s sixth consecutive ‘Mania appearance.

TNA Knockout Drama

2

We haven’t covered too much on the TNA Knockouts thus far, but finally we have something to sink our claws into! Many wrestling news sites reported yesterday of friction between some of the veteran Knockouts and the newer girls; stating that the heat was mainly coming from the likes of Traci Brooks, Gail Kim and Christy Hemme.

One incident cited was Traci berating Velvet Sky backstage over her match with Gail Kim, last week. However, Talia Madison (Velvet Sky) took to her MySpace to quash any rumours:

Apparently some news sites are having fun throwing around mine and others names in some S**t they have NOOO idea what they’re talking about!

The following was posted today on various news sites;

“There were reports to management that Traci Brooks lashed out at Velvet Sky for not holding up her end of the match with Gail Kim last week.”

Lashed out?? Hmmmm…I was there and I dont even remember this happening!

If one were to “lash out” at me, seeing as how “lashing out” is such a powerful state of being, I am almost positive I would remember if this had happened to me, but I dont, because it DIDNT!!!!

This is just another case of YOU CANT ALWAYS BELIEVE WHAT YOU READ!

Instead of focusing on the real disasters of the world, these people like to dig for dirt thats NOT EVEN THERE, for the sole purpose of having something to report on their headlines! STOOGES!!!!!!!!!!

And as far as the “tension amongst the knockouts” goes, once again, everything is fine!!

Anyway, hope everyone is doing great, and keep on HOLLERING!!

I’m definitely rooting for the Knockouts and will be taking Talia’s account over the “newz sites” out there. When you’re getting on TV every week and being able to showcase your talents unlike your WWE counterparts, it’s all good in the hood and you should have nothing to complain about backstage.

If rumours are true, one name I was surprised to see listed was Christy Hemme… what?! What gives Christy the right to act territorial over anyone, when she has little to no personality and can only wrestle so much. Let’s face it, Christy has “WWE product” branded all over her ass and in this case our advice to her is: bitch sit your ass down.

Victoria’s Run of Bad Luck

0

Veteran Diva, Victoria has had a run of bad luck of late as she tells WWE.com in this week’s Diva Dish. In the span of three weeks, the Vicious Vixen has missed two house shows – the first and second times in her 7 year career:

Hanging with Victoria
We swear we didn’t jinx Victoria – we swear! But recently in Diva Dish, the SmackDown Diva apologized for missing a live event – her first in seven years. Thanks to weather and travel woes, Victoria missed another live event. While she was squeezed onto a flight to Atlanta, bad driving directions – thanks to Jesse & Festus – made her miss a Divas competition.

“I didn’t have a GPS, and turned the wrong way. I listened to Jesse & Festus, who are the worst people to listen to, and I was late! They already did the Divas’ best body contest, and you cannot have a best body contest without myself there. You know I would have stolen that, right?” she asked.

“There must be an anti-Victoria campaign going on that I don’t know about, so I was kind of upset. So that was that, another show missed, the second one in seven years!”

And for those following Victoria’s new business venture – Black Widow Customs – will be opening this spring in Louisville, Ky.

“We’re opening in May. The reason why it’s so delayed is we’re doing construction on the building and we have to get the city to OK it, and that takes a while,” she explained. “But don’t fret, it’s going to be open in May and it’s going to rock! I got more new stuff and I’m excited, totally excited.”

Also, the results still aren’t in for the YouTube Chrysler 300 Spin It Your Way online contest, which Victoria entered her Chrysler 300 in.

“This month we are going to find out from Chrysler who wins. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I have a good feeling! But just like our shows, it’s subject to change,” she laughed.

How about we send Victoria some love with our minds and hope she can break the curse! We’re with you, girl!

Crazy Bitch Attack, Oh Wait… It’s Chyna!

2

The pyscho legally known as Chyna appeared on the equally disgusting, Perez Hilton’s What Perez Sez special on VH1 last night, read what Perez wrote on his blog yesterday:

This special is all about reality TV and our chat with the former wrestler turned reality trainwreck got really ugly real fast.

Chyna flashed us her vagina like 5 times! For real.

We guess she really wanted to prove she was a biological female or something. But we’re still not convinced.

In addition to showing us her vajayjay, we also arm wrestled the he/she and did so much more.

Yikes! However, Perez shouldn’t be one to complain, I’m sure it was just like looking into a mirror.

Maria Loves to Give Head

5

To put it bluntly…

6. Do you prefer giving or receiving oral sex?

Diva Maria: Oh, definitely giving. Boys are gonna love that one!

Is there really any need for commentary? See the rest of Maria’s verbal orgasm interview by clicking here.

Don’t Cha – Maria’s Pussycat Fantasies?

4

maria-shimmering.jpg

I’ve cracked it! I’ve finally figured out just who Maria gets her style and hair tips from… the trannylicious Pussycat Dolls! The big hair, the crazy uncomplimentary outfits – it all makes so much sense now! Not content with being a Playboy Bunny, in her latest WWE.com photoshoot (that would make the ninth one this month), Maria unleashes her inner Pussycat! View photos »

Taking cues from Nicole and err… the other ones may be cool if you’re, I don’t know, blind as a bat but then again Maria is rarely the picture of fashionable perfection. We’ve been hearing recently of Maria’s passion for singing – maybe she’ll try out for the next season of “Pussycat Dolls Present…” Or better yet, before dabbling in new things, maybe she should try and perfect her current crafts? Here’s a to-do list:

  • Dress self with lights on
  • Practice new facial expressions for photoshoots
  • Oh and if I can squeeze in time, get better in ring (but only if I have nothing better to do)

Backup Plan for Bunnymania

74

In case you haven’t heard, Candice Michelle may have reinjured her broken clavicle, last night on RAW. It was the former Women’s Champ’s first televised match since suffering an injury last October.

According to PWInsider’s Dave Scherer, the current plan is, should Candice be unable to compete – for Mickie James to replace her in the Bunnymania Match at WrestleMania 24 with Candice serving as some sort of manager or coach for the team. What’s that saying? Every coin has it’s upside. Yeah, I think I found it…

The jury is still out on whether Candice will be able to compete or not at ‘Mania, so let’s not get our hopes up… Does that sound bad? I hate to wish badly on anyone but it is uber tempting in this situation.

Hef Likes ‘Em Young (In Case You Didn’t Know)

1

In an interview with phillyBurbs.com today (the same site, Melina spoke to last week), Maria revealed that she once turned down an offer to pose for Playboy at the tender age of 19.

Eric – Is it true that you turned down the original offer to pose in Playboy?

Maria – I was asked to do Playboy from the time that I was 19. I just wasn’t ready. I didn’t feel like it was my time. I just didn’t feel like it was there yet. When I became a woman and started to feel comfortable, and felt like it was everything that I wanted it to be, that’s when I did it. So yeah, I had turned it down a few times. I got the advice from my family, my friends, and the people that are closest to me and decided that this year was the year to do it.

Judging from E!’s Girls Next Door, it’s no secret Hef likes his girls young but also judging from Maria’s Playboy pictorial… girl is hardly the robust fantasy Playboy is so famed for, so imagine her at 19?! That would’ve been the type of pictorial R. Kelly likes to indulge in.

Paid to Look Ridiculous

stpatricks.jpg

Some would draw the line at being asked to dress like Shrek, but not these girls! In the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, three of WWE’s finest *cough* Divas donned something green for WWE.com. RAW’s Katie Lea, ECW’s Lena Yada and SmackDown!’s Michelle McCool are our festive fools this time around. Hey, it’s Easter this weekend, how about Kelly Kelly hatching out of an egg and Candice dressed as the Easter Bunny?

Check out all the photoshoots by clicking here and once you’re done, vote below for your favourite shoot! Our vote goes to newcomer Katie, looking less dumb than her colleagues.

Victoria Brings the Fierce

0

As much as WWE would like to shove Candice down our throats, they don’t know what they’re missing with Victoria! Proving she is as fierce as she is vicious in her latest WWE.com photoshoot, Victoria brings the heat in one of the freshest and best photoshoots we’ve seen of any Diva in a long time! The former Women’s Champion exemplifies to Maria that you can pout without looking like a fish and shows Candice how to pose without looking hoochie. Her outfit is gorgeous too, something that Tyra would call “high fashion.”

TNA’s Salinas Propositioned by Reality Rejects

0

salinas-fairplay.jpg

TNA’s Salinas, better known to you and I as Shelly Martinez was propositioned by couple, Jonny Fairplay (Survivor) and Michelle Deighton (America’s Next Top Model) backstage at the company’s Destination X pay per view. Fairplay confirmed the rumour on when he appeared on the Voice of Wrestling radio show:

Jonny Fairplay was on the Voice of Wrestling radio show tonight and confirmed rumors that he and his fiancée asked TNA Knockout Shelly ‘Salinas’ Martinez for a three-some backstage at the Destination X PPV. “Yah, it’s true” he said. Fairplay and his fiancée Michelle Deighton (who is bi-sexual) openly asked Shelly ‘Salinas’ Martinez for a three-some in front of a bunch of people backstage. Deighton (former contestant on American’s Next Top Model) and Fairplay were both backstage with their little daughter Piper.

Thankfully, Shelly declined the offer for a freak show threesome, she cited she was too busy filming another porno… I mean, a fetish flick.

Incoherent Ashley Babbles On…

4

ashley-babbleon.jpg

You know that song Babylon? How about some of you guys out there get together and re-record it as an homage to Ashley, changing “babylon” to “babble on?” Incoherent Ashley recently took to her MySpace for her own episode of People’s Court, all but condemning the “haters” – aka 90% of the Internet wrestling community (way to alienate, Ash!). Apparently, part of the punk rock lifestyle includes typing like a ‘tard, did someone forget to send CM Punk that memo? “Not punk enough, Punk, it’s spelt ‘rawk’.”

Read Ashley’s comments below. But before that, a disclaimer so we don’t get sued: WARNING: MAY CAUSE SEVERE LOSS OF BRAIN CELLS.

Don’t believe everything you hear…lets clear some S**t up, shall we…

So, I guess everyones taking their turn at trying to be a reporter huh. HA!
The latest questions I’ve been getting from yall, dang, everything from Playboy nums (which is a load of crap btw n I know for fact) down to rumors about me. Just take comfort in knowing, and I mean KNOWING, that none of that S**t is true…hehe absolutely none. I suppose people would be pretty embarassed if they were called out on this so sorry to everyone who thinks starting rumors about S**t they know nothing about is their job…
Just wanted to rest the onslaught of questions I’ve been getting from yall. Rest assured, everything is DY-NO-MITE! So chill you lil freaks talking junk about me. Or I’ll take this cas and shove so far up your…whoops just kidding…hahah got carried away I suppose…
Anyway, that oughta clear things up for now, nothin but love for ya my punks!

Catch up with yall later, love ya

The dirty diva

What’s that word Diddy loves to use? Oh yeah… bitchassness. Ashley has a severe case of it.

Really True (and Candid) Internet Confessions

1

While Diva Dirt was in the development stages, former Women’s Champion Melina spoke candidly earlier this week on her relationship with Batista. Last year, Batista confessed in his autobiography Batista Unleashed that he and Melina had had a relationship.

Eric: Were you surprised at how much Batista wrote about your relationship with him in his book?

Melina: Kind of yes and kind of no. Like, I was surprised to see it but knowing him, he wears his heart, he will tell people how he feels. He doesn’t hide anything, and he didn’t say as much as he would have said, and for reasons I guess? But in his way, he put the most important people in his life in that book, and that’s his way of saying that I’m an important person in his life.

You don’t see stuff like that in her WWE.com blog! I applaud Melina’s candor in addressing the situation because there’s been a lot written about her on the forums and such. Melina is far from a slut or a prima donna, which my partner in crime can attest to. Read the rest of Melina’s interview, which is pretty feel good by clicking here.
