A rare short documentary featuring TNA Knockouts, Angelina Love and Taylor Wilde as well as Diva Dirt’s Kristin Astara was brought to our attention today and I thought it’d be cool to post it. ‘Learning the Ropes’ features the three ladies during their time training in Deep South Wrestling back in 2005 when all three were under WWE developmental deals.
Check it out below:
Thanks to Tom for the tip.

@Melanie Has Kristin ever talked about her time at DSW if so can you link me?
Thanks
never knew angelina was in a contract with wwe…..yet she bad mouths it! Bitter! lol
Yeah all these 3 female wrestlers were with WWE
I remember it was planned for Angelina Love when she was there that she was going to get called up as JBL’s manager and feud with Jillian Hall in 2005 then Angelina fell with a torn ACL injury until early 2006 when WWE tried her out again as a manager of a tag team called The Gymini in dark matches for Smackdown
I remember Taylor Wilde was close to get called up to Smackdown in the middle of 2007 under a masked wrestler gimmick with the ring name San-Eye
Mmmmm I would have a 4way no holds barred match with those for women to a clean finish;)
I personally think Angelina was much hotter back then. She is still very attractive right now, but better looking back then.
Angelina seems like like such a coo person. I would love 2 hang out with her. Dies anyone kno if she is still daring the lead singer of Linkin Park??
this really gives you an insight of how the talent in developmental train
” Dies anyone kno if she is still daring the lead singer of Linkin Park??”
she was dating a married man? =/
@Mr.AJ Lee
She was NEVER dating the lead singer from Linkin Park. She was dating the lead singer of Saving Abel, But they split in like 2008.
Shes a badass chick!
I always wanted to see Michelle McCool and Kristal Marshal vs ANgel Williams and Trenesha Biggers aka Rhaka Khan in DSW 2005..
angelina, was alot prettier back then
@ SherriShepherdWWE
I agree. She looks so pretty without the crazy ass eye makeup and trashy tattoos + outfits.
Holy shit was that Kofi at 11:30?? He looks so tiny!!!
Watching this makes me realize…how shitty the developmental diva roster is today compared to back then. And ‘back then’ was only 4 or 5 years ago.
completley off topic, but Taylor was also the WWE Fan of the Month – her shoot was pretty hot. This was the first time i’d ever seen her, she had the Diva look the WWE would go for at the time. Just saying haha.
I never knew Angelina was in contract with WWE, she looks so different. I agree with cutymania. Looking back, the development facilities had alot of female talent. Angelina, Kristin, Taylor > Naomi and AJ. Were there any other big names who were in contract with WWE at this time?
