Traci Brooks Named Head Knockout

by

The original Knockout is now the head Knockout. In a kayfabe article on TNAwrestling.com, Traci Brooks was officially named as the head official of the Knockouts division in the company. Now I don’t know if this simply means she’s going to referee all the Knockouts matches or if this means that she is referee-cum-General Manager … Read more

Glamazon Put On Blast By Webmaster

by

She may be the new Women’s Champion, but Glamazon, Beth Phoenix has been put on blast today by her now former official website owner. The webmaster of bethphoenixglamazon.com sent out this e-mail to many news sites recently and seeing as myself and Erin run Torrie Wilson and Melina‘s official sites, it’s time for us to weigh in!

I would like to issue this statement in regards to the Official Website of Beth Phoenix being “hacked”

There is some sites reporting that someone hacked the website, and placed the TNA logo there, other sites are reporting that it was just a disgruntled webmaster… tis is what happened

I was the webmaster for Beth’s Official website for its entire 9 month run, and at this point I’d like to explain what has gone on. Disgruntled is only the beginning….

I approached Beth Phoenix in regards to an Official website when she was still working down in OVW before being called back up to the WWE main roster last year. I believe we launched the site sometime around April, 2007, with the full support and input of Beth herself. We spoke about how the site should be and Beth sent on some cool ideas for some video promos that I ended up making as teaser trailers for the countdown to the opening of the site.

I had told Beth that I would look after all the registration and hosting costs of the site, because I am a pro-wrestling fan, I wasn’t bothered about spending some money each year to become the webmaster for Beth’s official website and stay in contact with her.

She wasn’t the easiest to stay in touch with, even when she was still down in OVW, but I still continued on with the site. Then some of the Beth Phoenix fansites, which may I say do an excellent job, started to get some exclusive news that I felt should’ve been reported first and exclusively on Beth’s official site. I asked why we couldn’t do it through our site, and was promised by her husband, Joey, that he would now handle reporting all news etc. to me (At this point Beth had been called back up to the main WWE roster).

So Beth is once again the Women’s Champion. Yay or nay? Sound off in … Read more

Cherry Released

by

Well, I guess it was inevitable that we’d lose at least one Diva… unfortunately it was a Diva that has been heavily part of SmackDown over the past six months. Cherry has been cut from the roster, I guess simply because she’s not a cookie-cutter bimbo. This has to be seen as a complete surprise, … Read more

Paparazzo Makes Maryse Cry

by

Rising SmackDown Diva, Maryse, may have been wowing the crowds in her mixed tag match that also featured Eve at WWE’s SummerFest this weekend – but after the event, our French-Canadian hottie got a grim taste of what it is to be a celebrity. Reports out of the event state that a paparazzo was seen … Read more

Coincidence or Fate?

by

Is it merely a coincidence that Ashley Massaro‘s first public appearance since her WWE release will be at a strip club? Or is it fate giving us another LOL-worthy moment? Either way, Ashley will be part of a barrage of former Playboy models who will be appearing at “The Scene” in Commack, Long Island, NY … Read more

Tammy Sytch Turns Down the Classiest Show on TV

by

Looks like Tammy Sytch hasn’t let herself hit rock bottom like other ex-wrestling stars have (*cough* Chyna *cough*). The lady formerly known as Sunny wrote on her MySpace blog (which you can view here) that she recently turned down an offer to appear on Season 3 of VH1’s reality show Rock of Love: I got … Read more

Will Candice be making her re-emergence on Friday nights? While I’m not a Candice fan by any means, … Read more

Eve To Make Wrestling Debut… Sorta!

by

I’m not exactly sure if it’s her “mainstream” wrestling debut for WWE, by that I mean, not on a house show or down in developmental. And to be honest, I’m too lazy to check hence the “sorta.” Anyhow, SmackDown’s forgotten Diva, Eve Torres will step into the ring tomorrow at WWE’s second annual SummerFest in … Read more

Word has it that Torrie’s people … Read more

Love & Sky: Why TNA is Better

by

Velvet Sky and Angelina Love were recently interviewed by the Miami Herald, speaking on a range of topics, but mostly focusing on the state of women’s wrestling. Obviously, with TNA’s reputation of spawning butthurt wrestlers, one has come to expect a few potshots at the WWE when it comes to TNA interviews. However, despite the predictable shots taken by Love and Sky, they do have valid points. Here’s a selection of quotes:

‘The women’s division in TNA definitely sets us apart from any other form of women’s wrestling because we offer something called variety,” Sky said. “None of us looks exactly the same. There’s blonde hair, dark hair, red hair, no hair.

“It sets us apart because we all look different. We all dress different. We all wrestle different, and we don’t offer fluff-n-nutter that you see elsewhere. We’re hard hitting.

“Every girl has something different to offer. We all have wrestling experience. We all wrestle differently, different styles. We’re not models who don’t know anything or don’t know how to do anything. We all have experience and backgrounds in wrestling, and we really take women’s wrestling to a different level.”

The Beautiful People took it to a new level, working well together in the ring, on promos and during interviews. They improve, and the TNA women’s division is improving, attracting more fans.

”I think it’s starting to gain respect, again,” Love said.

Sky: “Because of us.”

Love: ‘There’s some aspects where it’s like, `This sucks,’ because it’s all models, and this is brutal, brutal, brutal, but then you can watch us and be like, ‘Oh my God. Those girls actually know how to wrestle.’ It’s crazy.”

Taylor’s Got Issues

by

I have always thought TNA Knockout Champion, Taylor Wilde had a striking resemblance to teen queen, Lauren Conrad from the infectious MTV series, The Hills. Turns out, just like that very show, Taylor is not without her own melodramas – Taylor has an issue uttering the letters “WWE.” Uh-huh, you read right. Taylor apparently felt … Read more

Shut Up Ashley and Shut Up Now!

by

One month after leaving WWE, Ashley Massaro is already plotting her comeback to television.

The Big Brooke Hogan Post

by

I tried, I tried, I tried. Brooke Hogan can’t really be considered a “Diva” or “woman of wrestling”, hence why we have never really posted anything about her. But things are getting juicy! First off, Hulk’s little girl may be appearing in Playboy! That is the rumour that’s been making the rounds by oh I … Read more

A Little Too Unserious?

by

As some of you have pointed out, WWE.com has deleted the Beth Phoenix photoshoot they posted yesterday, leading to speculation as to why. Allow me to throw my hat in… Though this could be an oversight, perhaps someone in the upper echelon of WWE (or Creative) saw the shoot and requested it be pulled down … Read more

Sounds ominous… “Vickie Guerrero is not Vickie Guerrero anymore,” Hector said. “She is … Read more

Two Former Divas Blog

by

Recent Diva departures, Ashley Massaro and Torrie Wilson have taken to MySpace today to update fans on themselves! First up is this short and sweet message from Ashley! Now, if you were one of the billion people who cried, “She didn’t write this!” at the controversial blog she posted on July 2nd where she announced her leave – have a cookie! The dirty but no longer Diva admitted that she didn’t pen the blog… but sorta, kinda did:

Hey yall just wanted to drop in to say thanks to everyone whose been sending well wishes and I miss yall too, I’ll see you soon though I promise. The lil angels doin better this week, hopefully werre outta the woods but who knows. I just wanted to say thanks for stoppin in and checkin. BTW that last blog that was posted, I had to call it in to one of my friends to post it because we were no where near home and thats why I guess it didn’t “sound like” me. Haha, you guys were quick to figure that out, thats some funny S**t that you know me like that. Anyway, have a great weekend everybody, I got a whole lotta stuff comin your way soo just hang tight.

Next up, Torrie Wilson has re-emerged on the eve of her 33rd birthday with a new blog, talking about going to the gym for the first time since her surgery and hanging with the Divas recently! Excerpt below:

My back is healing well after surgery and I have started working out again and I couldn’t be more happy! I guess I am one of those weird creatures that really LOVES to workout and it has been so hard to stay out of the gym the past 4 months. (YIKES!) I actually cried the first day I went back to the gym because I couldn’t believe how much strength I lost and felt like I lost everything I have worked so hard for…but heck there are people out there that have it wayyy worse than me so I definately won’t complain! I have since been just working super hard to get into the best shape of my life. Slowly but surely!

Blonde, Big-Breasted Woman to Join the WWE???

by

With all the Ashley “is she or isn’t she (a hooker)” talk, I felt the timing of this news quite appropriate – according to the ever-reliable Paul Heyman over at the The Sun, there’s a slight chance of porn star Jenna Jameson making the move from being naked on your computer screen to.. being half-naked on your TV screen – okay, so it’s not a HUGE leap, but you know the WWE loves their trashy self-promotion! Heyman wrote the following on his Sun blog:

“Tito is finishing up his UFC contract this weekend. What does he do next? Wear out his name in MMA, or capitalize on his love for pro wrestling and exploit his larger than life personality by joining WWE or TNA? And remember, where Tito goes, so goes Jenna Jameson, the best self-promoter in show business today.

Playlist – April 24, 2008

by

playlist.jpg
Welcome to another edition of the Playlist, our regularly scheduled music column! This week we have a little mixture of everything… some news, YouTube videos and new music!

mariah.pngNews & Tidbits
Here at the Playlist, in previous issues I’ve heavily touted two of my favourite artists – Mariah Carey and Leona Lewis! Well it’s with extreme pleasure I’m able to share some chart news on both of these talented divas (of the musical kind)!

• Last week, Leona Lewis made history when she became the first British female artist in history to top the Billboard album charts! Leona’s debut album Spirit sold just over 200,000 copies to give her the number one album in the United States. In fact, Leona also had the #1 single in the country too making her week extra special as she topped both the singles and album charts! (More Leona after the cut, when we YouTube her American Idol performance last night!)

• Last week was Leona’s week, but this week – the original diva, Mariah Carey knocked her off the top spot as her new album E=MC2 topped the album charts, giving Mimi her highest selling debut week of all time! Her 11th studio album sold 463,000 copies over the course of a week. Mariah’s last album, The Emancipation of Mimi was her previous record setter with 404,000 copies in it’s first week. (More Mimi after the cut in our new music section!)

For new music and a YouTube video of Leona on Idol:

Playlist: Mariah Carey “E=MC2” Review

by

playlist.jpg
Welcome to another edition of the Playlist, our regularly scheduled music column! This week all eyes are on Mariah Carey as the diva prepares to release her 11th studio album, E=MC2 next week! Check out our review of the album…

mariah.pngIn 2005, Mariah (or should we say Mimi?) was emancipated and now, the world’s biggest selling female artist is unleashing another 14 tracks of fun, bliss and emotion on her “lambs.” E=MC2 is the 11th studio album from the one and only Mariah Carey, whose storied career has spanned nearly 15 years. Still, the diva continues to remain relevant in music today – after all her 2005 album The Emancipation of Mimi was the biggest selling album of the year, spawning the #1 smash hit We Belong Together which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for 16 weeks. Mariah described her latest offering as the dessert to the main course that was Mimi… and she couldn’t be more right! Though this offering doesn’t quite match her comeback album, Mariah still has it and puts the other rising female artists in their places with a knockout album.

Already the album has made history, it’s lead single Touch My Body became Mariah’s 18th #1 hit in the United States making her second only to the Beatles in terms of artists with the most #1s (the Beatles have 20). But having listened to this album, I can almost guarantee that Mariah will be able to match, if not surpass, the legendary British band. It’s fair to say that every song on the album has single potential, yet all the songs are an eclectic mix.
