Another Pay Per View, Another Disappointment

Tonight’s Judgment Day pay per view is yet another disappointing one for us Diva fans, marking the second consecutive pay per view that the Divas have been left off. In fact, 2009 thus far has been wholly disappointing in the pay per view stakes. WrestleMania not withstanding, and let’s be honest, who’d want to count … Read more

SHIMMER Spotlight: Portia Perez

After a brief hiatus, SHIMMER Spotlight is back! In case you’ve been living under a rock, SHIMMER Spotlight is a Diva Dirt exclusive where we highlight talent from everyone’s favorite all-girl promotion, SHIMMER. This week we’re featuring one half the new SHIMMER tag team champions, Portia Perez. 
 
Name: Portia “Frickin'” Perez 
 
Aliases: Xstasis 
 
Age: 21 
 
Entrance Theme: ‘Edge of Seventeen’ by Stevie Nicks 
 
Finisher(s): Kosher Pickle (Flipping Inverted Double Underhook Facebuster); School’s Out(Swinging Reverse STO); Superkick 
 
Associates: Nicole Matthews 
 
Accomplishments: GCW W.I.L.D Champion (1 time); MEW Women’s Champion (1 time); SHIMMER Tag Team Champion (1 time – current) – with Nicole Matthews 
 
If you ask Portia Perez what phrase describes her perfectly, you can be sure her response will be ‘totally frickin’ awesome!’ and I agree. While Portia is short on years (and inches), this Ottawa native has half a decade of experience under her belt. 
 
Portia made her debut at sixteen, working indy shows in Canada. A year later the Canadian youngster began taking booking in the states. 2006 saw her debut in Mexico as masked luchadora, Xstasis as well as her official SHIMMER debut in a dark match against Daizee Haze. 
 
In the three years since her SHIMMER debut, Portia has definitely made her mark. After being sidelined with a broken hand, courtesy of MsChif, Perez returned to SHIMMER starting a feud with top star and co-founder Allison Danger. She even tried to attack Danger while she was pregnant. 
 
Along with fellow Canadian Nicole Matthews, (collectively known as the Canadian NINJAs) Portia has managed to win the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship from Ashley Lane and Neveah at the last SHIMMER taping. Portia also had a TNA dark match against current Knockout Champion Angelina Love in December. You can also try to spot her in the Wrestlicious videos (she’s in the school girl outfit) 
 
If had to pick between TNA and WWE for Double P, I would pick TNA. Even with their overcrowded roster, I think she would be able to shine more there than in WWE. I wouldn’t be surprised if TNA offered Portia a contract sometimes soon. Taylor Wilde, Sarah Stock and Madison all had dark matches before being offered contracts. 
 
So do guys find Portia Perez ‘frickin awesome’? Would you like to she her in the big leagues? As always, here’s a few vids to get you familiar:

Diva Dirt’s Before And After: Alicia Fox, Katie Lea and Mickie James

Every week all us women’s wrestling tune in to RAW, SmackDown, or ECW hoping to see our favorite Diva in action. With all the glitz and glamour of WWE, it’s easy to forget where our girls got started. That’s why I’ve decided to send to guys on a trip to the past, to see your favorite Diva’s humble beginnings. Let’s kick things off with one of Smackdown’s newest Divas: Alicia Fox.

BEFORE:

Alicia Fox vs Beth Phoenix

 
 

AFTER:

Alicia Fox vs Natalya

 

Wow, what a difference a few years can make. In her first singles match against Beth Phoenix, Alicia looked like she was in the middle of her first week of training. She wasn’t horrible, but the whole match seemed really stiff and rehearsed, a far cry from her recent work. As you can see above Alicia has surpassed expectations by putting out a great match with a season veteran like Natalya. If she can keep up this progression, I imagine we’ll see her with gold before too long.

Which Disgruntled Ex-Diva Wrote This?

A mysterious but rather hilarious list has been circulating on the Internet for the past week. “20 Rules for the Diva Afterlife” was supposedly written by a former Diva. Whoever wrote it really should consider a book deal, because this was a great – if a little bitter – read. My first thought was Sunny, … Read more
