WWE’s Top Golden Model
10 comments | Posted by Melanie
America’s Next Top Model may have wrapped it’s tenth cycle last night, but it is just the 10th Top Model getting a golden opportunity - Mickie James is too! The Diva is seen posing with her Women’s Championship belt in her latest WWE.com photoshoot. Now, usually I’m not too keen on Mickie’s photoshoots, but I really love the glamour and concept of adding the title into the mix, it really adds something extra to the shoot. Much more refined and classy than Candice posing in a bikini with the title, last year. I just adore Mickie’s outfit, I think this is the outfit she wore during her Women’s title celebration turned Diva showdown on the King of the Ring episode of RAW, if so I loved it then and I love it now.
The only letdown is her facial expressions, Mickie’s face in the recent year or so has been looking very old and crackily. Perhaps the use of sunbeds or something, because her facial skin almost looks like it’s peeling. Not a good look in HD or a photoshoot. Click here for the full set.
Loading …DJs Are a Matter of Life or Death
5 comments | Posted by ErinWWE.com has an article up in which they question Superstars and Divas on what they would put in their own personal “survival vault”. The answers from the Divas range from the trivial (a DJ?) to the sentimental (friends and family):
“I’d definitely put an iPod in there with me singing,” noted Raw’s tone-deaf songstress, Jillian. “I’d also want another human being — maybe Britney Spears? I wouldn’t want her kids, though. Just Britney, so she can entertain me.”
The Doomsday vault, however, isn’t fun and games for everyone — especially troubled pop starlets. “My father was in the Air Force, so we had a lot of that dehydrated food and green cans [of sardines],” said Victoria, who takes the subject very seriously. “I wouldn’t have anything for looks, really. It’s basically all about survival.”
For Candice, it wouldn’t be just a Doomsday vault; it would be a Doomsday party vault.
“I’d definitely put a DJ in there,” said Raw’s sexy former Women’s Champion. “[The vault] would float on top of the water [like Noah’s Ark] until it all fell through.”
Never one to fret over the material things in life, Michelle McCool stressed the importance of having family — including golden retriever Jonah — inside her survival chamber.
“Everything else, other than my family, friends and maybe photo albums for memories, is pretty meaningless,” explained SmackDown’s All-American Girl. “You can’t put a price on the things I’d put in that vault, simple as that.”
Diva Legends Immortalised Once More?
11 comments | Posted by MelanieLast week, WWE announced that they are working on a new video game, Legends of WrestleMania featuring some of the most historic stars of WWE past. Diva Dirt is already speculating which Divas, if any, we would like to see on the game! Who wouldn’t love to see Trish Stratus once more immortalised for Xbox or Playstation? Here’s our guide to some of the top Divas from years past, that deserve to be “Legends of WrestleMania!”
- Trish Stratus
- Lita
- Sable
- Chyna
- Torrie Wilson
- The Fabulous Moolah
- Miss Elizabeth
- Luna
- Sunny
Is there anyone else you think should be added into the mix? It’s unsure if there’ll even be room for the Divas, but we think that the above have contributed vastly to WWE over the years and at WrestleMania and most importantly - are legends in their own unique ways.
YouTube Classics: Lita vs. Jacqueline in a Hardcore Match
No comments | Posted by ErinWelcome to the YouTube Classics! With this week’s theme of “Bag of Tricks” - celebrating the moments where women’s wrestling has delved into those unique gimmick matches that are decidedly “masculine” in nature - we have Lita vs. Jacqueline in a Hardcore match from all the way back on the October 8th, 2000 RAW:
Roxxi’s Hair Woes
4 comments | Posted by MelanieAccording to the dudes at PWInsider.com, Roxxi Laveaux was the logical choice for having her head shaved this past Sunday at Sacrifice because she was looking to have her hair cut anyway:
One of the reasons Roxxi Laveaux was tapped to have her head shaved at the Sacrifice PPV was that she was open to the idea when it was presented to her - partially because the hair dye and style of her voodoo character had stripped her hair and she was looking to cut it.
All those years of abuse to your hair can have that effect, just ask Angelina Love. Something tells me that going bald wasn’t the hair cut Roxxi had in mind but we applaud her all the more for going through with it! Now that brings us onto today’s poll:
Loading …Oops… Melina Did It Again
10 comments | Posted by Melanie
Yes, even I am kicking myself for choosing a Britney title, but in my defence it felt fitting. I would have left it to Erin to report on this photoshoot but I couldn’t resist when I stumbled upon the above picture. Melina looks as though she’s just let out a fart however to be honest, that doesn’t lower the tone of this photoshoot because there is nothing flattering or sexy about it in the first place.
Melina does it again… delivers a poor photoshoot, I mean who can forget the hoochie prom queen from the Bronx? And now Melina will forever be remembered and mocked for this picture. Bet on it! Check out the full shoot by clicking here. ~*Melina’s not that innocent*~
Loading …What’s That? ECW With a Real Divas Match?
4 comments | Posted by Melanie
It has to be seen to be believed, but last night ECW pulled a real wrestling match featuring the Divas. We’re not talking about Kelly Kelly vs Layla part 13544634, we’re talking about a competetive, physical match-up like RAW and SmackDown! This was a really good match, though it is funny how the ECW Divas, Kelly and Layla got no ring time! Natalya, Michelle and Victoria all were great in the ring, though Michelle seemed a little off her game this week. I don’t like Victoria jobbing to Cherry, why couldn’t it have been Layla?! Other than that, a very good match up. Watch below!
I don’t know what’s going over at WWE HQ in Stamford but I think all of us Diva fans should band together and count our blessings, because this has been a week of unusually strong booking for the Divas! We had a fantastic night for Mickie and co. on RAW on Monday, a great match on ECW and we can look forward to not one but two Diva matches on SmackDown! and then there’s Judgment Day on Sunday!

TNA Impact Spoilers for May 15th & May 22nd
4 comments | Posted by ErinWe have spoilers for TNA’s next two Impacts. Highlight below to read:
May 15th:
• Kaz & Jay Lethal & Sonjay Dutt defeated Johnny Devine & The Rock N’ Rave Infection. After the match, Lethal asks So Cal Val to marry him at Slammiversary and she accepts with a “Oh yeah”. Very similar to the Macho/Liz angle. Sonjay didn’t look happy and had some great facial expressions here. Kaz would try to tell him to congratulate them and he just kept his distance and showed some fake happiness.
• TNA Knockouts champion Awesome Kong defeated Gail Kim with the help of Angelina Love. Most of the heels and face knockouts made their way to ringside during the match. They all started arguing on the outside and Gail went to the top but Angelina Love shoved her off causing her to hurt her ankle. Kong picked her up and nailed the awesomebomb for the pin. Gail sold the leg after the match.
• Kurt Angle came out and said he asked for airtime to read a letter to Karen asking to take him back cause she needs him. He says that she needs to get her prioritys straight and makes a list of things that come before her. 1. TNA Title, 2. His gold medal, 3. The Kids, and 4 was her. He says he hopes she comes to the impact zone next week so they can leave together.
• Angelina Love and Velvet Sky, now given the team name “The Beautiful People” defeated ODB and Roxxi. Odb took the pin. You can see Roxxi did have a cut on her head from the PPV.
May 22nd:
• Angelina Love defeated ODB when Velvet Sky interfered and Roxxi Laveaux made the save.
• Kurt asks Karen to take him back. Karen says No because Kurt will never change. Kurt is begging and Karen leaves.
• Awesome Kong challenged any woman in the crowd for $25,000. A “fan” comes out and Kong destroyed her
