The Blue Brand Gets Seasonal
With last night’s “Santa’s Little Helper” match at Armageddon come the requisite photoshoots showing off the Divas’ costumes. Today, in a photoshoot entitled “Divas Holiday Spectacular”, the Smackdown Divas Maria, Maryse, Michelle, and Natalya are modeling their Christmas best. Michelle goes the a surprisingly ho-ish route, given her “good girl” image, with a pink fuzzy … Read more
Watch: Santa’s Little Helper Match at Armageddon
SANTA’S LITTLE HELPER MATCH
Divas Spread Christmas Cheer at Armageddon
The supposed-to-be-heel Michelle McCool picked up the victory for the fan favourites in a Santa-themed match at Armageddon. The Divas Champion, already a controversial figure among you Diva fans, is bound to draw even more ire as she unveiled her new finisher – the Styles Clash – a move performed by TNA’s AJ Styles. Michelle … Read more
Stand Aside, Angelina – Maryse Has Her Claws Out
With all the “Batman 3” Catwoman rumors running rampant, it almost seems appropriate for Maryse channel the feisty feline in her new photoshoot, “Bad in Black”. The black leather, slick hair, and black boots? Come on – it’s unmistakable! Though, I don’t know if she matches up to the likes of Angelina Jolie or Rachel … Read more
Dust Off Your Santa Outfits, Divas!
… Because we know you have ’em! It’s almost obligatory that the Divas have a slutty Santa outfit in their wardrobe for parading around on television or Christmas-themed shoots at WWE.com (more like Christmas at the Playboy Mansion-themed shoots). Well tomorrow night on pay per view, will be just another excuse for eight lucky (and … Read more
SmackDown Watch: December 12th, 2008
This week on SmackDown, we’ve got some tag team Diva action. Looking to keep their victorious streak alive, Brie & Nikki Bella take on Maryse & Natalya: THE BELLA TWINS VS. MARYSE & NATALYA
Beth’s Got the Right Idea
Women’s Champ and Slammy award winner, Beth Phoenix stopped by the Monday Night Mayhem radio show on yup, you guessed it, Monday night just hours before her big Slammy victory. It seems Beth, like the fans, is pushing for a match between herself and Melina at WrestleMania 25 next April. Mosh then mentioned Melina’s recent … Read more
Is Trish Stratus Set to Return to Raw?
In need of a little Stratusfaction? Well, rumors are circulating about Trish Stratus making a possible return, with Raw and SmackDown taping a SuperShow in Trish’s hometown of Toronto a week from Monday. That, paired with a few hints dropped about her and Natalya wanting to lock horns, makes an appearance seem quite likely. Here’s … Read more

Well, That’s One Way to Wear Lace..
I’m always happy to see Candice Michelle‘s softer side, and this photoshoot, “Black & White” definitely shows it. Well, at least from the shoulders up. Her hair and makeup is goreous, but further down is a different story. I just can’t say I like the lacy jumpsuit – it looks incredibly awkward on her. The … Read more
Victoria Retiring From WWE
I guess we knew it was eventual but it really does sadden me to report that SmackDown Diva, Victoria, is planning her retirement. According to PWInsider’s Mike Johnson, the news has been making rounds backstage at WWE and has been a major talking point among the stars. Apparently, Victoria may have handed in her notice … Read more
Apparently, Divas Grow on Trees
You want more diverse photoshoots? Well, Mickie James is here to serve! Her new photoshoot, “Mother Nature” takes its title quite literally, in fact. The WWE’s resident free spirit has taken to the trees, making for some unique poses. It seems a bit awkward to be balancing on branches while wearing a bright, bold maxi … Read more
Raw Redux – December 08, 2008
I’ve always made this observation and I’ve always been right: It seems that the Divas get even less screen time than usual when we have these big three hour Raws. Where’s the sense in that? No Divas match left Melanie disappointed. So Beth Phoenix is the Diva of the Year for 2008 and she has … Read more
WWE Bans Michelle McCool
Kinda. So, yay! Michelle McCool took to her blogging ways this afternoon, and while most of the world would rather eat Umaga’s vomit than read a blog from Michelle McCool, here is something interesting to take notice of, and it’s rather sad, if you want my opinion. Wings of Love: Yes, I haven’t used it … Read more
And The Slammy Goes To…
Congratulations are in order for the Women’s Champion, Beth Phoenix who has been crowned the Diva of the Year 2008. Beth won the award over Kelly Kelly, Michelle McCool and Mickie James. However afterwards got into a catfight with rival and award presenter, Melina.
Who’ll Win the Slammy?
Tonight one of four Divas have the opportunity to become a Slammy award winner for Diva of the Year. But before the Academy of Wrestling Arts & Science crowns that Diva, we thought you should get a vote too. Who should win the Slammy? Three of the nominees have been a champion this year, two … Read more
Jeff Jarrett Courting Torrie Wilson?
If the latest rumours are anything to go by, it seems TNA is trying to land a Knockout of epic proportions! Jeff Jarrett has reportedly pitched ideas to the one and only Torrie Wilson to join the company. Torrie retired from pro wrestling earlier this year when she left the WWE, due to back injuries. … Read more
Style Showdown: Singing Their Praises
Welcome back to the Style Showdown! This is the contest where we put our favourite Divas and Knockouts up against each other, not in the ring, but in a battle of who looks better! Last time on the Style Showdown: top WWE good girls Candice Michelle and Maria did battle in a duel of the … Read more
It’s Jillian, Bitch
Now, I’m no Britney Spears expert, but I know a reference to her when I see one, namely Jillian Hall‘s new photoshoot “Blackout”. We all know Jillian idolizes the former pop princess, so it’s cute to see her photoshoot named after Spears’s last album. And hell, as long as she’s not belting out a few … Read more

Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful..
It may be snowing where you are (not where I am – Florida sucks), but Lilian Garcia is braving the cold weather in her latest photoshoot, “Winter Warmth”. In photos that I can only assume were taken months ago, Lilian’s frolicking in the sand and surf, looking divine. There’s not much to say – bikini … Read more

Brie’s More Fun Than You Can Shake a Stick at
We’ve seen our fair share of random props in WWE.com photoshoots, but maybe none as awkward as this: a piñata? Now I know Brie Bella, the lucky Diva lugging it around, is of partial Mexican descent, but is that enough to include such a visual non-sequitor? Nevertheless, “Piñata Princess”, as this photoshoot has been dubbed, … Read more
