Diva Dirt LIVE returns tonight at 11pm ET with a post-WrestleMania special. We’ll be discussing all the action from tonight’s big extravaganza and take your calls on the show too! Call in on 347-989-8156. DIVA-DIRT.COM/LIVE LIVE FROM AT 11.15PM ET
Three well-remembered former WWE Divas will be hosting a live after show for WWE’s Tough Enough beginning tomorrow night. Candice Michelle, Lilian Garcia and Torrie Wilson will host the Tough Enough After Show for AfterbuzzTV every Monday night.

Diva Dirt’s Cryssi is our correspondent at the annual Hall of Fame ceremony taking place tonight in Atlanta. Some early notes:
* Eve Torres and Kelly Kelly are on inductee ‘arm candy’ duty, bringing out the Hall of Famers to the stage.
* Lay-Cool sitting together.
Some more exclusive snaps from Axxess this past week sent in by David.
As previously noted, Wendi Richter was at Axxess yesterday signing autographs and looked fantastic. David noted that was incredibly personable.
Also at Axxess yesterday was none other than Snooki, signing copies of her New York Times bestselling book. (Seriously! She’s a bestseller!)
Former WWE Women’s Champion, Amy ‘Lita’ Dumas announced on Twitter that she will be at WrestleMania 27 Fan Axxess today.
She wrote: “Headed over to the Georgia Dome for Fan Axxcess to broadcast live with Project 96-1 WKLS. Come find me!”
Dumas lives in Atlanta, but up until now hadn’t been announced for any WWE events. I wouldn’t be surprised if Amy is at the Hall of Fame tonight or backstage at ‘Mania tomorrow.
Perhaps also interestingly, Trish Stratus mentioned in our interview that she’s working on doing something very cool this coming Monday on Raw. Pure speculation on my part, but Trish & Lita vs Lay-Cool would certainly fit the bill!
Perhaps one of the most memorable moments in WrestleMania Diva history… who can forget Molly Holly having her head shaved bald in 2004? Relive it below:
Diva Dirt’s Mr Glamazon brings us her exclusive daily blog detailing her adventures in Atlanta for WrestleMania 27 this weekend. Check back each day for a new entry! Note from Melanie: Unfortunately, David was unable to write his blog today, but did send along the following pictures from yesterday’s Axxess event! [nggallery id=475]
Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive clip from the upcoming revival of Tough Enough featuring Miss USA, Rima Fakih, learning to take a bump. Up until now only promos have been released, but this first piece of footage from the show gives viewers an idea of how the show will look and feel. Check out the … Read more
In a new interview with SLAM! Sports, Sunny aka Tammy Sytch discusses her WWE Hall of Fame induction this weekend.
On getting the call that WWE wanted to induct her, Sunny says John Laurinaitis called her while Raw was on and told her to tune in:
“I already had it on while I was packing for my trip to Mexico, when all of a sudden the announcement of Shawn Michaels going into the hall of fame comes on,” recalled Sytch. “I said to Johnny Ace, ‘That’s great! Good for him, he deserves it,’ as I acted happier than a pig in poop.
“Then Johnny Ace goes, ‘Well, Vince [McMahon] and I were talking and we’d like you to be the second inductee.’ I paused, and then said, ‘You’re s**ttin’ me right?’ Then he says, ‘No, I’m not s**ttin’ you.’ So of course I started crying and shaking and freaking out. I was thinking to myself, ‘Oh my God, I’m only 38, and usually the people who go into the Hall of Fame are at least 50, or dead by the time they get inducted. All I could think was, ‘Holy crap, this is awesome!'”
WWE’s annual Axxess convention kicked off yesterday in Atlanta and continuing our access-all-areas (pardon the pun) coverage of WrestleMania 27, we snapped a few pictures from the day’s events.
Appearing at Axxess yesterday were the likes of Kaitlyn, Gail Kim, Rosa Mendes, Lay-Cool, Vickie Guerrero and more!
Check out a selection of pictures from Day 1 of Axxess below:
Fans at WrestleMania Axxess this weekend are being treated to a display of Trish Stratus’ greatest hits — well, outfits — in the memorabilia section of the convention.
Several outfits from Trish’s WWE heyday are on display. Diva Dirt has exclusive photos and an exclusive video tour! Check it out below.
Also, you can hear Trish talking about the Axxess display and how/why she chose the outfits in our interview with her from earlier this week.
It’s been five years since Trish Stratus last competed at WrestleMania. This weekend she makes her return, but today we take a look back at her last appearance.
It was the feud that captivated fans and is highly regarded as one of the best Diva storylines of all time. For months, Mickie James tried to woo Trish — before deciding she’d rather take her down instead. It all culminated at WrestleMania 22 in 2006…
Part two:
Tonight is the night!
We are inviting our visitors in Atlanta this weekend to join us for a night of fun with fellow women’s wrestling fans!

I admit I stress about it too much. What am I going to wear? What tie should I pick out? Did I wear this color last year? It basically takes me a few weeks to make a decision. This year I even jumped on eBay and bought a new pocket square… you know in case I wanted to go with a pocket square (what am I, 60?) I hang the suit in my closet and try all sorts of color combinations. Finally I settle on an outfit, until I change my mind a few days later. It’s exhausting.
But it’s all worth it because the WrestleMania Art Show is one of my favorite nights of the year. I had such a good time the past few years that now I have really high hopes. So yeah I go overboard but when a normal night is sitting on our couch, watching American Idol, and drinking a bottle of cheap wine, well, you tend to get really excited for these things. (I truly wish we had 4 more kids, 2 just isn’t enough work…)
So I finally put it all together: black suit, blue striped shirt, black and blue tie. Perfect.
WrestleMania festivities officially kicked off in Atlanta last night with the annual WrestleMania Art charity event — and what would a red carpet event be without some Divas?
There was plenty of flower power on show as Natalya and Beth Phoenix both opted for frilly frocks. Meanwhile, Alicia Fox is spotted all smiles in a black number.
Former WWE Diva and TNA Knockout, Jackie Haas joined us last night on Diva Dirt LIVE to discuss her new role here at Diva Dirt as guest blogger for the revival of Tough Enough. Of course, as a co-champion on the original series, Jackie certainly has some insight and expertise about the show.
We get Jackie’s opinion on the return of Tough Enough, as well as the choice of trainers and what she thinks it takes to win the series. We also discuss her personal highlights from doing the show and what she’s up to at the moment.
It’s been a busy couple of months for the legendary 7-time Women’s Champ, Trish Stratus. She’s back in the WWE fold with the USA Network revival of Tough Enough, she’s going to WrestleMania this Sunday, has a movie premiering in one week and is on the cover of Oxygen magazine! With so much going on in the Stratusphere, we decided to give the Diva Dirt Legacy Award winner a call and discuss!
USA Network is running the following promo for next week’s Tough Enough premiere centered around Miss USA, Rima Fakih: The show premieres on Monday after Raw at 11pm ET.
WWE has released video footage of the press conference earlier today. Watch below:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – the WWE Art Show is the best event of the year for wrestling fans. You may not believe me but here’s the deal. It is the first event of the week so a lot of fans aren’t in town yet. It is nice and intimate. The food is great. The drinks are flowing. The art is interesting (and for sale). The WWE stars are relaxed and just hanging around. If you want to meet one of your favorite stars, trust me, the Art Show is the way to go. The Axxess sessions are a lot of fun too, but there are a ton of people there, the lines are long, and you only get a brief moment with the star. Tonight will be my third Art Show and if it’s anything like the first two, I’m going to have a blast.
Two years ago it was all about Beth.
It was all about meeting Beth and thanking her for being such an inspiration. Thanking her for being a great role model. Thanking her for the Glamasuits, the tiaras, the Glam Slam…everything. (And um, I do find her kind of attractive…so that’s nice too.)
WWE celebrity guest star, Snooki and Stephanie McMahon took the stage earlier today in New York for one last press conference before Sunday’s WrestleMania event. Snooki sported a ‘Brunette Mafia’ t-shirt (more on the origins of that name in our interview with Trish) and posed with the likes of The Rock and John Cena. According … Read more
Holy F-bomb, Batman! Last night’s Raw needed a lot of censoring when it came to the Divas in a last effort to attract interest before Sunday’s WrestleMania pay per view.
In a taped segment, Trish Stratus and Snooki were spotted at a bar in New Jersey with the latter looking in no fit state for live TV. (Glug, glug, glug!) Lay-Cool didn’t know what was about to hit ’em…
Trish and Snooki are drinkin’ it up (well, one more than the other) at Miami Mike’s when some dude comes up to them and pesters our pint-sized (pint… *cough*) MTV star. Snooki tells Josh Mathews that she’s ready for ‘Mania (“Bring it on, bitches!”). The interview is interrupted by the lurker — who, by the way, is named Danny E (vital information right there) — and he ends up getting a smack from Snooki for his efforts. A change from being on the receiving end, eh?
