SmackDown Diva Maria is stepping out of the ring and into the boardroom, according to the New York Post. Maria has been announced as a cast member on the upcoming third season of The Celebrity Apprentice, hosted by Donald Trump.
Maria will be joined by fellow celebrities including former X Factor and current America’s Got Talent judge, Sharon Osbourne, ‘Time After Time’ hit maker Cyndi Lauper, Rod Blagojevich (whose wife Patti starred on “I’m a Celebrity…” with Torrie Wilson) and many more. Also on the cast is former WCW Champion, Bill Goldberg.
The show launches in March 2010 but is currently being filmed.
Good luck Maria!

Does this mean she’ll be off Smackdown for a while? Hopefully she’ll be much more successful and less annoying than Ashley was on Survivor.

Despite all the criticism on her wrestling and wardrobe, I’ll be rooting for Maria. But I want to see who else is in it too. I think she’ll get some favoritism because of Donald’s friendship with Vince.
