We’ll just let the pictures do the talking.
Looks like the latest episode of Ask the Diva’s is out. This one features Katie Lea, Savannah, Eve Torres, and Alicia Fox just to name a few.
Looks like former WWE diva Maria Kanellis has quickly landed on her feet as a backstage/ringside interviewer for KOTC(King of the Cage.) Maybe we’ll be lucky and the former Diva will end up becoming a mixed martial arts ring girl. Anyone else wanna see Maria in a tight bikini?
Ahh…at last former WWE Diva and amazing yoga master Trish Stratus as returned to her blond look and we have the picture to prove it.
WWE Diva Melina has always come accross as one of the most honest women wrestlers around. Her take on her injuries, and her past depression from a previous injury give us an inside look at the Diva.
“It broke into four pieces and it jammed into my ankle. I had surgery for that as well. They put in two plates and six screws. I wasn’t able to walk for 3 months, which is very fortunate but didn’t feel that way at the time. During that injury I went through so many things personally. I was depressed. I questioned my worth. Not just in wrestling but in every aspect of my life. One day maybe I will explain further but for now I just want to thank you all for seeing me through that. I couldn’t tell you then but I can now, reading your emails and watching your YouTube tributes gave me strength to keep moving forward.” -via her blog.
Former WWE Diva Lita was known for two things. One, for her amazing ability to leap and to actually wrestle, and two, her tremendously hot thongs(of which we could only see the top in most cases.) She`s still kicking around with her band, and she`s still got a huge following.
I have been meaning to update you guys, and I am finally sitting down to do it. A lot of fun stuff is going on and I want to share it with you guys. I have been doing some traveling that doesn’t involve work, which is a new thing for me.
I went out to LA to see a few of The Pee-Wee Herman Shows live on stage. Anyone who has done any research on me probably already knows this- but I am a HUGE Pee-Wee fan, so it was pretty amazing to be in the playhouse after all these years. As if the amazing show wasn’t enough, I actually got to meet up with Paul Reubens after the show. I was a total dork. All I could do was smile and nod, or I would have just started gushing- mimicking the laugh, chirping my favorite quotes, doing the tequila dance, and I’m sure all I would have gotten in response was “I love that story, heh, heh……… Security!”. I managed to make it through saying hello and keeping my cool, until I got to the other cast members. I didn’t feel the need to save face with those guys and just gushed and gushed running around grabbing anyone on the show and making them pose for a picture with me. Total dork moment- but a real dream come true. I hear the show may be headed to NY, if you have the chance to catch it I highly recommend it.
I also went down to vacation in Nicaragua. It was the first time in forever I was on a foreign beach and didn’t have to wake up at 4 am for a photo shoot and do real vacation stuff- Horseback riding, zip-lining, sailing, hanging out on the beautiful beaches, and monkeys!! The people are amazingly friendly, and the beaches and volcanoes are unbelievable. I really had a great time – so much so, I bought a house on the beach down there!! I am really excited to visit, explore, and get to know that country even more.
This winter has been never ending in Atlanta, but I think Spring is finally here! That lead me to my basement for some spring cleaning. I was doing pretty good until I came across of a huge box of letters and cards people had sent me when I broke my neck. You guys RULE!! Thinking back, I don’t know how I could have done it without you. That was a really depressing, painful, and lonely time. Your thoughtfulness and words of encouragement made such a huge difference and gave me the inspiration I needed to get back in the ring. Thanks for being such great fans. -via her blog.
Former Diva’s Champion Mickie James has always been a good read, and her latest blog entry doesn`t dissapoint, albiet it`s a little long.
I hope you all are well. As you all may know if you follow me on twitter @mickiejamesdiva I have been sidelined for a spell. This has been very difficult for me as until this I hadn’t been injured enough to be taken off the road. Especially these last few weeks I’ve been on a roller coaster of sorts. I find that we are modern day gladiators. We risk life and limb every night to the roar of the crowd, to entertain, to feel that fire, to see each of you smile. Although we may be bruised and broken, we lick our wounds and keep going. We are driven by pure passion, raw desire, However we are also very stubborn! We don’t not admit when we are truly hurt,as it shows weakness, something that a warrior can never be.
Then, this is the second time in 2 months that I have ever been sent home from the road, both for the same reason. A Staph Infection, but not just any, as I found out in the hospital it’s MRSA. The first was from the most recent Mexico Tour where I was sent to Tampa to be treated. Then it came back worse than before this last time during the live event Loop in Texas where I was sent home. Then immediately admitted to the hospital in Richmond. To all the WWE universe who came to any of the shows or have watched in the last few weeks to see me. I am truly sorry and please know that I wanted to be there more than anything. Both times I tried to fight it, I fought with the doctors. I fought with my boss.. to just let me work through it, “its just an infection.. No big deal… I’ve worked through worse with a smile on my face” but thankfully for me, they wouldn’t hear of it! I cant express how truly grateful I am that they didn’t listen to me.
I didn’t realize the severity of the infection and how bad it was. When i was admitted into the hospital I went straight into surgery to get the infection out of my body. They also told me I wouldn’t make it to Wrestlemania. I told them they were wrong.. Watch me! When I woke up i was devastated… My leg was in an immobilizer, my knee was sliced open with tubes coming from it t help drain it. As the days passed in the hospital I found out more and more about the infection, about how bad mine truly was. The nurses also explained to me what could have happened if it had gone a little longer untreated. The infection had already gotten into my bloodstream and I was extremely ill.. A few more day meant I could have lost my leg.. Even my life… So I really want to take this moment to say thank you to them all from the bottom of my heart… To our Doctors, the Dr.’s who treated me, and my Boss(who always has to deal with my stubborn ways..haha)! It is because of you that I am getting better everyday, That I am able to write this, that I have my leg, that I have my life, I love you, God Bless You!
As I sit at home watching the road to wrestlemania… It must admit It’s not easy. In fact its one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. But it’s given me a lot of time to think.. To reflect about life, what I want, what I need, where I’m going, and how to get there. However it has also built my drive even more than ever before! Anyone who truly knows me and the type of person I am and knows that I want it all! I want to make history! I want to go down as one of the Greatest Female Entertainers of all time! I have and will continue to give my all. To make the sacrifices.. To be the absolute best I can be every single night whether it be in the ring or anywhere else. That is my promise to you!
Sometimes life throws you curve balls. Some we cant even begin to understand. I truly believe in my heart of hearts that everything really happens for a reason. It’s no secret that this last year and a half I’ve been burning the candle at both ends and the middle… Giving my everything to the WWE universe every night I can. Then working on my upcoming album that was set to release March 23rd in my time off. As i’ve reflected I’ve come to the conclusion that perhaps this is God’s way of telling me to slow down. A lot of things are happening simultaneously and I’ve been carrying a lot on my shoulders. All I truly wanted was for them both to be perfect, beautiful, and magical in their own light. I’ve never had anything handed to me on a silver platter nor would I want it to be. I work hard for everything and thats what keeps me humble and true to me… That make me who I am… However It just could be to much for any one person.
With that said I have come to the decision to push back the release of my album “Strangers & Angels” to mid May… After Wrestlemania, after the draft, after the tours… My main focus now, as it should be, is to get myself 150% for Wrestlemania first and foremost… Wrestlemania is the grandest stage of them all for anyone who’s ever stepped in the squared circle.. who’s dreamed of stepping out that curtain knows that Wrestlemania is the end all be all. There is no grander stage.. And then Commence to making even more history! It killed me to make this decision but I believe its best all the way around. I haven’t been able to promote it the way it needs to be leading to the release because of the sideline. By holding out I know I can put the proper energy and truly push my project the way it needs to be.
To all those who already pre-ordered your orders stand and I promise you will not be disappointed… I’m also extending the special pre-order sale with the limited edition t-shirt and signed CD until the beginning of may. You can order now until then at my page on Country Showcase www.countryshowcase.com/artists/mickie_j… We are also working on getting uploaded to amazon.com, I-Tunes, CD Baby, & so on… So I know you all will be able to get it across the globe. Please follow my country music ambitions on www.mickiejames.com as well as my twitter @mickiejamesdiva My Nashville Team & I are working on pushing my current single “Are You With Me” to country radio everywhere and getting it added to their current rotation so please request away. I want and need you guys beside me all the way on this. Thank you all… I love you all… 2010 James Gang is in to win! I will see you at Wrestlemania! Oh I almost forgot to mention… You all are invited to a huge fan party at Jimmy Buffets friday 8-10pm in Phoenix where I will perform a special selection from my album… I cant wait to see you all there…

Former WWE Diva Maria’s debut on Apprentice seems to have gone very well with general industry buzz indicating the women’s wrestler got some “serious” notice from Hollywood move makers.
Former WWE Diva/Announcer Lilian Garcia has a new fan page on Facebook. Just click here to find it.
Super hottie TNA Knockout Lacey Von Erich is going to be working on her in-ring skills as preparations for more active actual wrestling time(I suppose that wrestling is part of what a women’s wrestler does!). Lacey taken her blond locks over to M1(Mach One Wrestling) in Cali and will attend three times a week as part of a deal between M1 and TNA.
I start training this Saturday, three times a week! Can’t wait to get in the ring more!-Lacey via facebook.
Too bad as Lacey’s in ring performance gets better the chances of seeing another Lacey Von Erich pantsing gets worse. Damn. Check out the music video before with highlights of Lacey.
Former WWE Diva Candice Michelle(and also former nude model, and cast member of Playboy’s Totally Busted) is getting close to giving birth to her baby.
“Pregnancy is going really well, approximately 10 weeks to go, give or take, and I am in the stage where I am getting excited and really anxious to meet her! Her nursery is almost done and preparing for our home birth. I just try and imagine what shell look like…i cant wait. I’m working on scheduling the photoshoot towards the end of March. We waited a bit longer til my belly was bigger, I think it is ready!” -Candice Michelle.
Sounds like it’s going to be an interesting baby bump photo shoot, and Women’s Wrestling Divas will bring you all the pics when they hit the net.
