Pro-Wrestling: EVE Parts Ways with WAW Gym

8

It looks as though the business relationship between Pro-Wrestling: EVE and the WAW Gym is permanently over as of today. WAW member, Saraya Knight posted the following statement in regards to Pro-Wrestling: EVE on her Facebook page:

Please note: I nor any WAW female wrestlers are to be associated with Pro-wrestling Eve, We WILL NOT BE APPEARING on any up and coming shows. The business relationship is over and it will NOT ever be reconciled!

Pro-Wrestling: EVE has yet to make a statement regarding the departure of the WAW Gym.

This news comes as quite a shock as Britani Knight, also a member of WAW, is set to defend her Pro-Wrestling: EVE title tonight against Jenny Sjodin.

We will have more details on the situation as they become available.

Ah, the perks of being a celeb!

Former Divas Torrie Wilson, Lilian Garcia and Candice Michelle — collectively known as TLC — were spotted at Kari Feinstein’s style lounge at the W Hotel in LA, where festivities are under way for this weekend’s MTV Movie Awards.

The Tough Enough After Show hosts posed with some of the free swag on offer to celebs who stopped by.

Torrie in particular looked super fierce in an effortless looking shorts and shirt combo. Love it!

SmackDown Redux (June 3rd, 2011): Tamina Win Match For Heels

94

This week’s episode of SmackDown brought us a rematch of sorts from last week. The ChickBusters (Kaitlyn and AJ), with Natalya at their side, took on Team Heel featuring Alicia Fox and Tamina. The most notable difference this week is that the heels countered Natalya’s presence by adding the rarely seen Rosa Mendes to ringside (I guess she is heel again). Will Rosa’s presence bring anything to the match? Will AJ and Kaitlyn pull out the victory this week? Will Alicia continue to just be the fiercest Diva ever? Lets stop wasting time and find out.

When SmackDown returns from what I can only assume has been a commercial break, A-Fox’s music is playing in the background and the so-called bad girls of SmackDown are posing in the ring. It’s only a few seconds later that Alicia’s theme fades and Natalya’s begins to blare across the PA system. Dressed in the most gorgeous sequined mini I’ve ever seen on SmackDown, Nattie leads her rookies out onto the stage. Kaitlyn and AJ look ready for battle and they all head to the ring. Much like last week, a backstage video begins playing while this is going on.

Chyna’s PR Representative ‘Scolds’ Her Over Porn Film (Video)

51

When it rains it pours for Chyna, it seems.

Fresh from TMZ reporting that TNA was not interested in bringing her back due to her new adult movie for Vivid Entertainment, the PR firm that represents Chyna has publicly spoken out against her decision to star in the XXX movie.

Vivid Entertainment Releases Clips from Chyna’s New Adult Movie

Daisi Sepulveda, president of Model House Talent, has scolded the former WWE star in a press release issued to Diva Dirt.

Read below:

[notice]BEAUTY QUEEN SCOLDS CHYNA AFTER 2ND PORN RELEASE

Los Angeles, CA (June 3, 2011) “We at Model House are disappointed she couldn’t make better career and personal choices despite our overwhelming support,” beauty queen and President of Model House Talent and Beauty Queen Management, Daisi Pollard Sepulveda, says of Chyna’s recent porn scandal. It was a year ago when Yohe Sato manager of Joanie “Chyna” Laurer’s came to Model House Holdings owned by Jamaican Beauty Queen Daisi Pollard Sepulveda to ask for our services to help redevelop Chyna’s image.

Kelly Kelly Featured in Us Weekly

Hey… what’s going on with Blake Lively and Leo DiCaprio? Are Courteney and Jen still friends? Who looks better: Pia Toscano or Kelly Kelly? Wait… what?!

That’s right! Our little Raw Diva is featured in the hallowed pages of celebrity tabloid Us Weekly. That’s the good news, anyway.

In Pictures: Kelly Kelly Goes Risqué for Maxim Hot 100 Party

The bad news? K2 loses a ‘Who Wore It Best?’ style battle with American Idol’s Pia Toscano. It seems both ladies were recently spotted in the same Jovani dress. Kelly wore hers at a Maxim party a few weeks ago. The originator of the look, however, was Katy Perry at last year’s MTV Movie Awards.

Impact Write-Up (June 2nd, 2011): Frankenstein Learns To Speak

39

So last week, the Impact Wrestling Knockouts took a little vacation to Crazy Cove and ended up leaving us all scratching our heads. We saw blood trickle from the lips of an evil genius and her monster creation forced the enemy to pay dearly for the mistake. There was also that little trip to Psycho Pasture where someone needs a definite dose of estrogen injections to calm down that menopause. This week, the crazies are back and in full force. From a balls to the wall brawl to a singles match that isn’t so one-on-one. Not to mention, a little surprise at the end that has the peasants of the mountain rejoicing in the fields. As always, it is bound to be an interesting show for Impact Wrestling so stop sitting around here, reading this mess. Get to the good stuff!

Before the show can even officially start off, the cameras are centered backstage and as you would have guessed, someone is fighting. ODB literally tries to start things off with a BAM!(you like it) by attempting to put Velvet Sky and her face through an equipment box. But, thankfully, Velvet bounces off and rolls to the floor. The words “whore”, “bitch” and “douche” are thrown around like candy at a Christmas parade. ODB slaps the backside of Velvet, who was apparently posing for a photoshoot for TNA photographer, Lee South. Even he got a taste when he tried to pull ODB back off Vel Vel, proving that chivalry is not dead. By the way, love your work. Sorry about your testicular region.

When ODB comes back for Velvet, she gets a kick to the stomach and slapped back around because we know that Velvet is feisty. She even goes so far as to spear the Dirty Bitch herself through the pretty pink paper backdrop. The photographer in me just cringed. This whole time, Velvet keeps asking her what’s wrong with her and I can only imagine what every psychiatrist is thinking. Dr. Phil would have a field day with ODB. I can see him questioning her motives for dumping the water bottle over Velvet’s head or why she felt the need to throw her against the wall then choke her against the floor. Then going on to dive in about why she’s throwing out big names she overheard on CNN at the sports bar and talking about chubbies.

This whole thing is coming off a bit like a scorned lover’s brawl, if you ask me.

Nonetheless, ODB drags Velvet out toward the Impact Zone, while a camera man runs from the other side. ODB slams Vel Vel into a table and muscles her around, slamming her head into the seating wall. Um. Ouch. She even throws out something that sounds like it is supposed to be “bikini shoot” but comes out sounding like she just stepped out of the Alaskan wilderness. Dontcha kno?! Anyway, Velvet, clad in only her underwear that is covered by a new Impact Wrestling shirt, ends up against the opposite wall. The Dirty Bitch goes to punch her but Vel Vel rolls away, causing her to punch the wall. I know that hurt.

But we all know that Velvet is full of fire and once she gets the upperhand, she’ll take it. She takes her attacker back against the table and slams her down, telling her she isn’t finished with her yet. Back across to the other wall and it looks like Velvet might actually get one up but ODB is bigger and stronger, so she comes back quicker. I’m not sorry to say it but ODB is not someone I would want to run into in a dark alley. I’d probably cut her with Cryssi’s knife. I should probably lend it to Velvet because that tailbone to the wall is definitely gonna put her down for awhile.

ODB, attempting to predict the future, points to a handicap sign and tells her victim that’s what she is going to look like when she’s done. But here comes security, who apparently had to eat a full course meal before getting out there. ODB puts up her hands and as soon as they take a breath, lands a hard kick to their manhood. Can you hit that high note now? Haha. Here’s my question, if ODB isn’t even employed, why is she allowed to just hang around?! So much for security. But whatever, she doesn’t care and neither does Velvet because she whips her around, slapping the hell out of her. A chest chop with a slam into the wall and Velvet screams in her face that she isn’t finished with her.

“Not by a mile…”

So she takes her to the barricade but gets held up herself, ass up and vulnerable for another slap. Insert a couple of bleeps and a couple more “whores” and you’ve got an episode of Jerry Springer. Vel Vel tries to fight back but ODB drags her around, groping herself and nailing Velvet with stiff shots. She rips Velvet’s shirt down the middle and throws her in the ring, stalking her. Velvet tries to kick her away but the Dirty Bitch strips her of her shirt and wraps it around her throat, choking the life out of her. What is with these crazy females and their obsession with choking?! Straddling her blonde victim, ODB tells her to kiss her ass, throws a forearm across her throat and counts a three on the mat.

“The bitch is back now! ….bitch.”

Meanwhile, she spits and gets out of the ring which, I guess, signals for Miss Tessmacher to finally make it to the ring. Where the hell was everyone for the good six minutes this was all going on? Velvet points at her throat and Tess unwraps the cotton, allowing her to breathe. She makes sure her glasses stay on her head and cradles a broken Velvet. I tell you what. If that was me….well, let’s just say that it is too violent for even this show.


skip to the 2:09 minute mark

Later in the show, we see Winter backstage, completely pissed off. She slaps her hand against the wall and turns her attention to a stonefaced Angelina Love. She starts ranting about what Mickie James did to her last week, drawing blood. She hurt her. She wanted to disfigure her and scar her for life. UNCONSCIONABLE! How many times have we heard her say that? I do believe it is her favorite word, even thought it seems like it is so painful to say. Winter goes on to tells Angelina that she has to defend her honor, she has to and it starts tonight with Tess….shhhhhh!

In a motion we haven’t seen lately, Angelina puts her finger to Winter’s lips and actually…..SPEAKS! Oh wow. I seriously choked on my drink. She says they must once again become royalty and be loved and cherished by the people. They need to go back to a happier time when it was just the two of them, no one standing between them. She is beginning to understand how Winter feels and tonight, she does this in her honor. Does what exactly? Are they going to hold hands and skip around the maypole?! Because I love ribbons and that would be awesome.

It is finally time for the Knockouts match of the evening. Honorable mention to Christy Hemme for being a fierce ring announcer and fashionista. I’m coming for that outfit. Out first is Miss Tessmacher and honestly, this is the first time I’ve actually listened to her theme song and I really like it. I can dig that. The former secretary comes out in a style only she can throw out, stripping off her clothes and showing off her ass..ets. I thought by now she would at least have a new color for her outfit but sadly, she doesn’t. Her opponent, the now speaking zombie, Angelina Love makes her way to the ring with Winter in tow. They stop on the stage and Winter caresses her minion’s face and they make their way to the ring, Angelina crawling in like the creature she has become. I do have to say that she is looking a little less crypt keeper this week.

The bell rings and the official tells Winter to get off the apron while Tessmacher comes behind Angelina, going for a quick roll-up. A fight out and another one but it is a no-go. However, Tess has fire in her and she goes for a side headlock, going for a takedown but Angelina isn’t having it. She stops it, not once but twice and takes Tess down with a shoulder block off the rebound. A gaze toward Winter and Angelina is slightly distracted, but her pain block is still intact. She doesn’t even budge when Tessmacher throws a forearm. A double hand choke turns into a toss across the ring, which leads to multiple hard right hands from Angelina. The official stays on her but all she can do is stare him down.

If looks could kill…..

A ring around(har har) and Tess gets a flying cross body on Angelina, going for another pin but she doesn’t even make it to two. Winter, always the distraction, provides just enough that Tessmacher gets knocked to the outside. Winter taunts Tessmacher while Angelina comes to the outside, throwing those stiff shots until the referee makes her get back in the ring. A quick shove into the ring from Winter and Tessmacher is down on the mat, getting picked up for two harsh sideslams. Shoulder blocks to the midsection against the turnbuckle and this official has his hands full. Angelina charges back in but Tess fights back, finally coming out of the corner, taking her opponent down with a pair of flying clotheslines. Oh, here we go. That little stripper dance victory roll….or so we thought.

Angelina scouts it and drops her back to the mat. The crowd starts the stomps while the New Zombie Hot drops Tessmacher back on both her knees, going for a sit down pin. She picks up the three count and another win, but Winter isn’t finished. That simple motion to snap another victim in half and Angelina moves likes a cat, locking Miss Tessmacher in that choke hold submission. The official does his best to break them apart but Winter clammers into the ring, yelling at him to get away. SHE’S MINE! Uh…whatever you say, Morticia. I’m pretty sure given Mickie’s past, she has some idea what Angelina is going through. Perhaps they should go to therapy sessions together? Either way, they’re going to fight at Slammiversary and it ain’t gonna be pretty.

And for those of you paying attention, Karen Jarrett finally fell down the castle stairwell this week with a little help from the King himself, Jeff. Let’s just say that I have a feeling we won’t be seeing much of Mama Jarrett for a while. You can check out the video below:

Thoughts: This show just keeps getting more insane by the week. ODB has officially gone batshit and well, so has Angelina. But hey, at least she’s speaking now, right? Every cloud has a silver lining. Aside from that highlight of the night, I definitely have to state again that I want Christy’s outfit. I’m coming for it. Get it ready. I’m wondering how this Angelina/Winter deal is going to finally unravel. Did you see the way Angelina was looking at Winter this week? Like she wants to slather her in barbecue sauce and stick her on the grill for dinner. Medium rare. Rather creepy, if you ask me.

As for ODB and Velvet, well…let’s just say that I really doubt Velvet can handle the Dirty Bitch on her own. I’m pretty sure she’s gonna need back up because ODB is a T-Rex. But Vel Vel has spunk so we shall see. Until next week, my lovies! xoxo

Madison Eagles Discusses Her MMA Background, Mothers as Wrestlers

SHIMMER Champion Madison Eagles spoke to SLAM! Wrestling to promote this Saturday’s NCW Femme Fatales show in Montreal, in which she will be making her debut with the promotion. Eagles talked about her entry into wrestling and gives some helpful tips on how women in wrestling can balance their careers with their personal lives.

On her MMA background:

“I did a lot of MMA as well, but professional wrestling sort of ended up outweighing that. There’s not a lot of opportunities for females to do MMA — it’s illegal in Australia to compete in mixed martial arts, even kickboxing. So there’s not a lot of opportunity there. When I was doing the amateur and all the MMA training, professional wrestling took a bit of a backseat for a little while there because I was swimming for that. I still love it. I wish I could do Ju-Jitsu every day. I think the way that I try to wrestle is different … there’s not just the kicking and submitting, there’s the jumping, the jumping off balconies, all that jazz.”

On SHIMMER’s status in the women’s wrestling world:

“I think for a lot of women in professional wrestling, that’s their goal, across the world, to work within SHIMMER. Because we have girls from Japan and England and Canada on the show, even if they are on a rotation, they spread the word too about how much they enjoy it, how much they enjoy the backstage, actually being on the show and what an honour it is. I think the word gets spread that way as well.”

See the lineup for Saturday’s NCW Femme Fatales VI

What helped her the most in forging a career in wrestling:

“To be completely honest with you, although my husband has encouraged me and helped me so much just with my knowledge of wrestling, and realizing just how much I really can do in the ring, it’s really been me that’s really pushed hard because I’m dedicated and motivated, and nothing’s ever good enough for me. It’s really been me pushing all the way. I’m the one that went out there and got my tapes into SHIMMER, to get them even looked at.”

How she, as a mother, thinks women like Kharma can balance their professional and personal lives:

“I think if you just take it easy and let it happen, it becomes a lot easier. If you’re too stressed, if you’re only concentrating on the wrestling, then there goes the family life; if you only concentrate on the family life, then there goes the wrestling. If you just let them mix in together and you take it easy, and just let what happens happen, I think that’s the way to do it. That’s the way I make it work. [My daughter] understands when she’s watching what’s happening and stuff like that, but she still gets afraid. Obviously, we’re getting the crap beaten out of us, but then she wants to wrestle us on the ground in the lounge room.”

Winter Talks Leaving WWE, Knockouts Championship Hopes

21


TNA Knockout Winter recently appeared on the Monday Night Mayhem radio program, discussing her WWE departure, why TNA is a better fit and what winning the Knockouts Championship would mean to her.

On her jump from WWE to TNA:

“I learned to enjoy myself at work. I think obviously things happen for a reason, and sometimes you’re at a place of work that doesn’t suit you. I definitely think Impact Wrestling is the place where I am supposed to be. I had my eye on this company for a while, even before I got here. I was so happy to get the opportunity to work here. For me, it’s about coming to work, enjoying working again, and feeling fulfilled as an artist again and a wrestler too.”

Enjoying her storyline with Angelina Love:

“I was always a big fan of The Beautiful People. I always thought Angelina did a great job, so to be involved with her, as she is one of the top girls on Impact, is great for me. I am really enjoying it.”

Watch Winter give Diva Dirt a shoutout

The prospect of becoming Knockouts Champion:

“I would love to be Knockouts Champion. That would definitely be a dream come true. I think in terms of proving the doubters wrong, I think people who know my work or know me know that I wasn’t necessarily given the opportunities that I may have done something with if I would have had it. I don’t feel that getting the Knockouts Championship would be like a ‘I’m gonna stick it to you’ thing. It would be an honor in itself to me.”

The Bella Twins Respond to Mo’Nique’s Challenge for a Match

14

Oscar-winner Mo’Nique in a WWE ring with the Bella Twins? “You’re dreamin’, Mo Mo,” say Brie and Nikki.

Earlier this week on BET’s The Mo’Nique Show with special guest Alicia Fox, Mo’Nique issued a challenge on Alicia’s behalf to take back the Divas Championship, which Fox joked that the ‘Bella Brats’ (her words, not ours!) were ‘babysitting’ for her.

Watch Alicia Fox’s interview on The Mo’Nique Show

Dubbing her team — consisting of Fox and the other guest on the episode, Kelly Price — Triple Scoop Double Fudge Chocolate, Mo’Nique challenged the twins to a three-on-two pay per view match.

On their Twitter page, the twins responded: “PS Mo’Nique couldn’t even take us down with @AliciaFoxy…. Um that’s called #YourDreamin’ Mo Mo!”

What say you, Diva Dirt fans: Should WWE try and snag Mo’Nique and deliver said PPV match? (Answer: Yes!)

Chyna Says TNA Not Bringing Her Back Due to Adult Movie

68

We had been wondering why TNA didn’t snap Chyna up following her big return to wrestling a few weeks ago at the Sacrifice pay per view.

Well, it seems we may have our answer: Chyna is claiming that TNA have warned her that they won’t work with her again if her pornographic movie with Vivid Entertainment is released.

TMZ reports that Chyna had been in negotiations for a longer term deal, until they received word of her XXX flick.

Chyna to Appear in Porn

“Chyna tells us she got a call from TNA honchos warning her that if she lets the tape hit shelves … the deal is off for good.”

Vivid released the movie online this week.

Speaking to TMZ, Chyna adds: “The whole thing has been constant drama … it’s all good in the end … [TNA Wrestling] is missing the boat.”

Thoughts: The timing of her TNA debut and the movie is a little unfortunate. I can certainly see why TNA, as a company, wouldn’t want to be associated with an adult movie. It was really nostalgic to see Chyna in a wrestling ring again and I had hoped we’d see her stick around for longer. Perhaps they can work things out once this movie blows over?

WWE Superstars Redux (June 2nd, 2011): Clash of the Rarely Seen Divas

This week on WWE Superstars featured battle between two rarely seen Divas. ‘The Paparazzi Princess’ Melina faced off against Gail Kim in singles action, a match that had Divas fans shaking with anticipation. Did the match live up to the hype? Check it out below:

Thoughts:

I came into this match with really high expectations. Sadly, the match did not live up to them, in my opinion.

Don’t get me wrong. By no means would I call this a “bad” match. On the contrary, it was better than most of the Diva matches that make it to the main shows. We all know that Melina and Gail can be quite impressive in the ring and they had some good moments at the start of the match. That said, things seemed to break down and get a bit clunky mid-match. I thought the ending was pretty good, but it just wasn’t as exciting as I thought it would be.

In past matches, these two Divas have shown great chemistry each other, so I’ll chalk this one up to an off night, Hopefully, they’ll get to face off again soon and deliver the match we all know they can.

WWE Diva, Alicia Fox, is set to appear on The Mo’Nique Show tonight at 11pm ET on BET. Recap below:

Kharma Defends Jim Ross

10

The ‘too fat’ saga continues…

Following online backlash towards the WWE Hall of Famer, Kharma has come to Jim Ross’ defense over a comment made several years ago which she mentioned this past Monday on Raw during a heartfelt promo.

Kharma recalled how she had auditioned for Tough Enough 2 only to be told she was ‘too fat’ for the WWE by Ross. Since the segment aired, Ross has been getting jibes sent to him via Twitter which he addressed earlier today.

Writing a blog about the situation, Kharma said:

If @JRsBBQ hadn’t shot from the hip all those years ago, I wouldn’t of had the fire to succeed as much as I did. I wouldn’t of had the strength to sacrifice being with my family, my country, my native tongue to live in Japan for 6 years and learn this craft. I owe Mr. Ross a great gratitude.

Kharma also notes that JR was one of her supporters in being signed by WWE when she left TNA last year, and that they’ve been good friends since meeting at the Cauliflower Alley Club reunion last year.

WILD Wrestling World Champion Amanda Forfeits Title and Quits Promotion

Women’s wrestling promotion WILD Wrestling announced on their Twitter today that WILD World Champion, “The Bloodthirsty Vixen” Amanda has forfeited her title and left the promotion.

The former champion recently posted a statement in regards to her departure:

[I’m] ditching the @WILD_Wrestling title.. thanks for your support wild fans but im moving on :)

Amanda recently made headlines when she won the title, becoming the first transgender athlete to win a championship in any sport. Amanda recently missed a title match against Allison Danger at Freak Show Wrestling in Las Vegas, NV.

According to WILD, Amanda will make an official statement later this week.

WILD has announced that there will be a tournament over the summer and fall to crown a new WILD World Champion.

JR Comments on Kharma’s ‘Too Fat’ Remark on Raw, Backlash from Fans

23

Jim Ross has been in hot water with fans on Twitter since Kharma revealed how he once called her ‘too fat’ during auditions for Tough Enough 2 several years ago. But the WWE Hall of Famer explains that the comments made on Raw this past Monday were ’embellished for entertainment purposes’.

JR wants Awesome Kong in WWE

Writing on his website, JR says:

Kharma tried out for TE in Vegas at an open casting call for seemingly hundreds of potential talents. I never told her she was ‘too fat’ but that she was ‘too big’ at that time to be cast in a role that the role’s criteria had been clearly outlined to us. People don’t get that pro wrestling shows are entertainment based and facts, situations, etc are often times embellished for entertainment purposes. Those that have lashed out at me have wasted their time denigrating me for something that was not factual and was scripted.

JR comments on Kharma’s debut

Thoughts: What fans who bashed JR failed to understand is that, regardless of whether JR called her ‘too fat’ or ‘too big’, his comment was not a personal opinion, but rather, he was speaking for the company. By WWE’s standards, Kharma doesn’t fit the typical Diva look. However, it worked out for the best and she made it to WWE eventually with them knocking on her door.
