Mr. Glamazon’s Hitting the Ropes (Issue #23) – I Can Handle the Truth

If you listen to Diva Dirt LIVE, you know that I get fired almost every week.  I really do try my best but inevitably I screw something up – either by calling someone the wrong name, or messing up the switchboard, or making some lame joke that not even my co-hosts will sell.  Whatever the reason I always find myself on shaky ground, which stinks because I really do love hosting the show.  Interacting with the callers and special guests is a lot of fun and if I can learn something about the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” along the way, all the better!  Fortunately for me Melanie usually has a change of heart during the week and lets me keep my job, so basically I’m working on a series of 1-week contracts (although what Melanie doesn’t know is that I’m kind of like a stray cat…feed me once and I’m hard to get rid of.)  So I never know how long this gig will last, but Diva Dirt LIVE has been on the air since June 2010 and I’m extremely proud of that.

Now, if there ever WAS a reason for Melanie to fire me it was during this past Royal Rumble in Boston (and no, I’m not talking about the plaid shirt I wore.)  I admit, I dropped the ball…big time.  See the WWE sold t-shirts at the event that advertised the Divas Championship as a fatal 4-way match, which is fine except no one was supposed to know that before the “anonymous general manager” changed the match at the last minute.  As Natalya was all set to defend her Divas title vs. Lay-Cool in a handicap match, Michael Cole received an email essentially adding a fourth competitor.

Of course I would have already known that had I just read the back of my son’s t-shirt.  UGH!

Fan Report & Pictures from TNA House Show in Pensacola, FL (February 5th)

Diva Dirt reader Billy James sent in his live report and pictures from TNA’s house show in Pensacola, FL this past Saturday. The event saw a rare house show appearance from Sarita facing Angelina Love.

Before the show started, I was to get both Angelina and Sarita’s autographs. Both ladies were very nice especially Sarita as I had the chance to briefly talk to my second favorite Knockout. I told her that loved her matches with Mickie James as they have great chemistry together and I hope that she feuds with Mickie over the Knockouts Title. Sarita that she hopes so too as she wants a run with the belt. I also had the chance to tell her about the nickname that I and some of my wrestling friends have for her, “The Salsa Mama” which she liked. Angelina got the win over Sarita with Botox Injection. I had an eraser board with me on which I wrote: “Sarita: The Salsa Mama” when Sarita came out for the match. Let me say that Sarita is just as good live as she is on TV. I found out after the show that it’s rare for Sarita to do TNA house shows due to her obligations with Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in Mexico.

Maria Kanellis Comments on Criticism That She Isn’t Passionate About Wrestling

Former WWE Diva, Maria Kanellis has responded to criticism that she isn’t passionate about professional wrestling.

Writing on her Facebook page, Kanellis wrote:

I want to make a comment about the wrestling world because a lot of people are saying that I’m not passionate about wrestling because I am not still trying to wrestle. I was completely in love with wrestling and would have done it for the rest of my life if it had a retirement/family plan and fulfilled me creatively.

Raw Redux (February 7th, 2010): Settle Your Kettle, Michael Cole, Because Natalya’s Whistle is About to Blow!

On this week’s edition of Raw, WWE gave us yet another tag team match, this time featuring Tamina, Gail Kim and Divas Champion Eve against Melina and The Bella Twins. As an added treat, we got the #1 Contender, Natalya as a special guest commentary. Can Eve pick up her first as the newly crowned champ? Check out the match below and find out:

First out is the babyface team and I can’t take my eyes off Tamina’s gear… but I wish I could. Melina and The Bella Twins are out next, and strangely enough they get separate entrances. I guess WWE were gracious enough to spare a couple of extra seconds for the Divas tonight. We are not worthy.
