Lay-Cool & Melina: Where Do We Go from Here?
Last night's SummerSlam pay per view is in the history books and while Steven will be reviewing the Divas match at length later, I wanted to broach the subject of Lay-Cool vs Melina, which was teased to us at the end of the Divas Championship match. Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but last night's attack on Melina at the hands of SmackDown's mean girls opened up a world of opportunity and to me, was the Diva equivalent of the then-NXT season one rookies hitting the ring on Raw back in June, in t...
TNA Announces ECW-Inspired PPV: Should They Bring Back the ECW Vixens?
Always first for originality, TNA's next pay per view -- Hard Justice -- has been renamed Hardcore Justice: The Last Stand and will be a tribute show featuring many ECW originals. But of the names rumoured so far [Jerry Lynn, CW Anderson etc.], there doesn't seem to be any women from the original ECW. Hmm, just an oversight I'm sure...
To help out Dixie and co., here's our guide to the four women we'd like to see:

Hardcore history: Making her ECW debut in 1995, Beulah was introdu...
Armchair Creative Team: Weighing the Possibilities for Raw Viewer’s Choice
This Monday's 3-hour Raw is billed as a "viewer's choice" show, with the fans determining what happens based on who and what they want to see. The extent of the viewers' actual power is likely small, but it presents an opportunity for Diva fans to tell the WWE what they want to see. Of course, Melanie and Erin have a few ideas of their own--read through them and vote for the one you'd vote for this Monday night:

How to Salvage What’s Left of the Knockouts Division
When former Knockouts Champion, Tara's contract with TNA expires on May 21st, there will be a gap in the Knockouts division that needs to be filled. For the past year it seems, the entire division has revolved around Tara in one way or another, she is without a doubt the star power of that division and has been the top Knockout from the moment she came in to the moment she leaves. One woman doesn't necessarily define a division, but with a spate of departures including the high profile loss of A...
Guest Blog: ‘Why WWE Needs Awesome Kong’ by John Canton
Having listened to the Awesome Kong interview here at Diva Dirt and read a recent radio recap from her, one thing is perfectly clear to me: Awesome Kong wants to work for World Wrestling Entertainment. She's not outright campaigning for it, but if you listen to her, you can tell she's interested. The question is, does WWE have the same interest? I have no idea. The thing is, they definitely should and I'll be happy to tell you why.
By signing Awesome Kong, WWE would be breaking the mold of wh...
A Week of Drastic Change (But Not Really) in Women’s Wrestling
It's funny how things can change so much in just seven days, yet still remain very much the same. Since last Thursday, it's been one bombshell after another. In the last seven days, both WWE and TNA have made, I'm sure what they consider to be 'wise business decisions', in releasing Mickie James and allowing Tara to slip through their fingers. It is odd to watch this as a fan, as we effectively need to readjust the way we watch women's wrestling on national television and prepare ourselves to ...
Analysing the WWE Draft 2010: Kelly Kelly, Natalya & Rosa Mendes
The 2010 Draft has come to a close and we have now learned that three Divas will be moving homes this year, way down from last year's eight moves. Just how will they fit into their new brands? What can they offer? Let's discuss...
Kelly Kelly
Kelly Kelly's move to SmackDown reminds me in a sense of Torrie Wilson's move in 2007 and Maria's in 2008. Here is a hot, popular girl that they just don't know what to do with. She isn't quite a wrestler but she isn't just eye candy. They want to push ...
No Knockouts on Tomorrow’s PPV: A Sign of the Times?
For the first time in what seems like years, the TNA Knockouts have been benched from tomorrow night's Against All Odds pay per view. With so much change in TNA since Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan took over the reins in January, could this be a sign of the times?
The Knockouts have always had some presence on the monthly pay per views with a recurring trend of having two matches on the show last year. So how did we go from two to none? It could be said that the theme for tomorrow's show, which...
The “Piggie James” Impact
If you're a fan of women's wrestling and more specifically, the WWE Divas, then you are familiar with the "Piggie James" storyline that has graced our television screens in recent weeks. The angle has ignited a lot of discussion and controversy due to the sensitive issue it has been dealing with; a woman's weight and image. The WWE constantly promotes their women as smart, sexy, and powerful and with those labels come certain expectations. I'm almost positive the girls employed by World Wrestl...
The Revelation That is Kristal Lashley
Five years ago, a petite, young, pretty model took part in a little competition called the Diva Search -- who knew then that she'd open her mouth and turn out to be one of the best talkers we have right now? A Vickie Guerrero for TNA if you will, Kristal Lashley has been extremely impressive since she became the mouthpiece for her husband, Bobby Lashley in the company. Check out her promo from Monday's live Impact below:

Even though she had a brief run as a wrestler in WWE,...
