Stephanie Trinity WWE

One of the worst mistakes the WWE ever made in the Divas division was letting Stephanie Finochio aka Trinity go.
Can you image how awesome a Trinity/Victoria tag team would have been?
Or a Trinity vs Victoria feud?
Talk about the "Divas of Destruction".
But alas....

This....

Priscilla Kelly WWE

One of my favorite Indy wrestlers today, The Priscilla Kelly.
I still think the WWE should bring her in as Paige's long lost cousin or something.
Just don't change her gimmick.
Leave her just as she is.

Mandy Leon Submission Queen?

Indy wrestler Mandy Leon seems to have a pretty good arsenal of submission moves at her disposal.
Oddly that idea seems to rarely work in wrestling.
They tried it with Gail Kim but it never seemed to take hold.
Actually submission moves look like they would be more suited to womens wrestling to me.

Laurel Van Ness TNA

Laurel Van Ness has changed a lot since she first appeared on TNA, Impact Wrestling, Global Force Wrestling, whatever they call it now.
Laurel Van Ness (Chelsea Anne Green) had an on-screen relationship with Braxton Sutter, but then got rejected by him during their wedding when he professed that he was in love with Allie (Braxton's wife in real life).
She then started her crazy gimmick, wearing a trashed wedding dress, smeared make-up and carrying a wine bottle.

WWE NXT - Aliyah vs. Peyton Royce

On April 5th. 2017, two of my favorite WWE NXT Divas clashed, Aliyah and Peyton Royce
Well I say two of my favorites, but actually I like most of the NXT ladies.
Peyton of course is very popular and I think Aliyah should get more love than she does.
Though she has only been wrestling for 4 years, she is a great jobber, a skill that is kinda looked down on today.
But a classic jobber has to make you think that they may actually win a match to draw you in well and she does.
And of course Payton plays the dominating Diva perfectly when she has the advantage, so the two play very well off of each other.

Asuka vs. Nia Jax - NXT Women's Championship Match

At NXT's Live Event in Osaka, Japan, Nia Jax took on Asuka.
It was a good match, size and power versus speed and skill.
But in the end Asuka prevailed in front of her hometown crowd.

Melina Versus Alicia Fox at Summer Slam

Melina trashes Alicia - http://www.wwe.com/

You probably already know that the SummerSlam WWE ppv is August 15, 2010 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.
Among the featured wrestling matches will be a Divas match for the WWE Divas Championship between Melina (the challenger) and Alicia Fox (the champion).
This will be the first time this title has been defended at Summer Slam.

Thank God.


The beautiful Melina - http://www.wwe.com/

Maybe the WWE will end this farce and put the belt back into the hands of an actual wrestler.
The only thing I have against this match is the lack of build up.
Melina returned to the WWE on August 2nd on RAW, jumped Alicia and now she already has a title shot.
Less than two weeks build up?
I know Melina is a fan favorite, and she has the skills, mike and in ring.
But shouldn’t they have aimed for a bit more of a build up?
I guess I am just spoiled from "back in the day" when feuds had months of build up.

UPDATE:
Well the WWE did give Melina the WWE Diva's belt as she beat Alicia Fox at last night's SummerSlam.
Best part of the match to me:
It looks like Melina injures her knee early in the match...so Alicia goes to work on her arm.
Brilliant!

And afterwards, Team Lay-Cool interrupted Melina's victory celebration with a one sided beat down.

Is Awesome Kong Gone Now?

I keep reading that TNA Knockout Awesome Kong is still with TNA.
But I checked the TNA Roster page this AM...and I saw no listing for Awesome Kong.
http://www.tnawrestling.com/roster/superstar-roster

You may recall this happened before, she was removed, then put back on the roster.

So is TNA just messing with us?

The Female Wrestlers of Florida Championship Wrestling

April Mendes

Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) is the training ground for the WWE.
And like the WWE it has it's own divas.

Right now, their Diva roster consists of....

April Mendes (April Jeanette, Miss April)
Unlike a lot of the WWE's Diva prospects, April came in already knowing how to wrestle.
She's worked for wrestling promotions like Victory Pro Wrestling(VPW), National Wrestling Superstars (NWS), and American Championship Entertainment (ACE) as well as the all-female promotion Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU).
At WSU, she held the WSU Tag Team Championship with Brooke Carter.

Beverly (Beverly Mullins, Daisy,Wesley Holliday)
Beverly is a former Hooters Girl.
She may be making the jump to the main roster soon, as she has been involved in several dark matches for Raw and SmackDown!.
Although she was just the valet of Alex Riley, not actually wrestling.

Jenny Cash (Jenny Quinn)
Jenny is a model, wrestler and manager.
Jenny is also known as Fifi, the manager of Le French Men (Caylen Croft and Trent Beretta)
She is currently out of action with a torn ACL.

Penelope Carwin (Jemma Palmer)
English model and professional wrestler and formerly "Inferno" on the British "Gladiators" TV Show.
Although she hasn't had much in ring experience, this girl may be the one to keep an eye on. With the proper promotion, booking and breaks, I can see her as another Beth Phoenix, Victoria or Lita in the future.

Rachael Lynn (Rachael Carr)
British singer, dancer, TV presenter, model and body double.
I've heard rumors that she is already gone.

Serena (Serena Deeb)
Another diva that can actually wrestle.
She has worked for Ohio Valley Wrestling,Pro Wrestling Syndicate, Memphis Championship Wrestling, American Wrestling Rampage, Shimmer Women Athletes and held the OVW Women's Wrestling Championship a record six times.

Angela (Angela Fong)
Canadian born model, actress, valet and occasional wrestler.
For selfish reasons I want her up on the main roster because a Gail Kim / Angela Fong tag team would be so awesome.
Of course the WWE would have to bring back the Women's Tag Team Title....

Candy Girl (Carly)
Candy is an occasional Ring Girl, manager of Sweet Papi Sanchez and sometimes wrestler.

WZROline has a cool pic of most of the divas together that you can see here

TNA Knockout News and Amy Dumas (Lita)

Besides all the Victory Road news, a rumor coming out of TNA is that Traci Brooks (Is she still the Knockout Law?) and Christy Hemme will both be returning for this weeks taping.
And also rumored to appear is Japanese star, Ayako Hamada.

Traci and Christy coming back, Sarita and Ayako debuting right behind each other....
Is TNA set to knockout (sorry) the other wrestling promotion's women's division?

And there is another rumor surfacing that former TNA Knockout Karen Angle is living with.....Jeff Jarret?
Talk about an uncomfortable working situation with Jarret being so high up in TNA and Kurt Angle working for them.
Of course this is ONLY a rumor.

Change The Record.net has an interview up with Lita (Okay, enough time has passed...it's Amy Dumas now).
The cool thing to me is that Amy talks about why she wasn't at Wrestlemania.

Faye: Were you invited to take part in the 25-Diva Battle Royal at WrestleMania 25, this year? If so, why did you turn it down?
Amy: Did you see that match?!
Faye: Yeah, it was so bad!
Amy: Right, that’s why I turned it down.

You can read the interview and understand why I like the way Amy thinks here:

TNA Knockout News

At the TNA Victory Road PPV, Sharmell will be facing Jenna Morasca.
?
I figured that the Knockouts main event would be a Womens Title Match.
No Angelina Love?
No Tara?
No Velvet Sky?
Not even Awesome Kong?



And last night on TNA Impact, Sarah Stock finally made her first TV wrestling appearance as Sarita going up against Alissa Flash (who we know better as Cheerleader Melissa).
Sarita got the win, but Alissa got her revenge after the bell as you can see here:

Alissa Flash vs. Sarita | SpikeTV | SPIKE.com

Thanks to TNA for not only posting the match, but allowing people to embed the video so others can see it.

And on Hermie's Hotseat, race car driver, announcer and professional wrestling promoter Hermie Sadler interviews one of my favorite all time female wrestlers, Daffney.
You can watch it here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUvyUtnWsCI
I just love Daffney.
I still want her and Tara as a psycho tag team.

WWE Diva News and Updates

"The Wai-In" has a two part interview posted on YouTube with former WWE Diva Trish Stratus.
Trish talks about her yoga studio, pro wrestling and more.
You can see part one here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heDM7gAnyKo

Trib.com has an article up about Torrie Wilson and her being on "I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here!" on NBC.
I hope she does better than Ashley Massaro did on "Survivor: China".
You can read the full article here

Speaking of Ashley, I missed her birthday on May 26th.
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASHLEY!

Indy wrestler Serena Deeb is still a maybe with the WWE.
She appeared on an episode of ECW on Sci Fi, but has yet to sign a developmental contract.
Serena has worked for Shimmer and Ohio Valley Wrestling and in OVW she has held the Women's Championship six times.

And while they are trying to get one diva into the WWE another has been sidelined for nine months.
Jenny Quinn, a WWE developmental women's wrestler in Florida Championship Wrestling tore her anterior cruciate ligament and will be out rehabing it.
Jenny is known as "Fifi" and Jenny Cash in FCW.
You can keep up with Jenny at her MySpace page here.

WWE SmackDown! Diva Eve Torres is taking classes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at the Gracie Academy in Los Angeles, California, as are several of her fellow Divas.
You don't think the WWE read what I posted on my other blog about turning the Divas division into submission style wrestling seriously do you?
If so...where is my writers fee?
LOL

In it's "WWE Outside The Ring And More...." section, there is an article about Mickie James touring the garden of 9-year-old Sarah Lindauer.
Sarah is the latest "WWE Community Champion."

WWE Divas Mickie James and Maryse

For the second straight week in a row on WWE Raw, four time ex WWE Women's Wrestling Champion Mickie James pinned the current Diva's Champion Maryse.
This time was in a tag team, but Mickie still scored the pinfall.
Will Mickie be wearing the belt around her waist soon?
Everyone likes Mickie.
Even when she was doing the "Psycho Mickie"storyline with Trish, she got huge pops, even bigger sometimes than the Golden Girl Trish herself.
And Mickie has paid her dues.
She started wrestling in 1999 and wrestled for Indy wrestling promotions, TNA and OVW before finally landing in the WWE in 2005.
The current series of matches with Maryse at house shows and on TV are really getting attention.
To be fair though, one half of the reason Mickie is looking so good is Maryse.
Maryse has come a long way from Miss Hawaiian Tropic Canada in 2003.

This may sound strange, but as much as I like Mickie, I hope she doesn't get the belt quickly.
I hope we get to see a really good feud.
It doesn't have to be the "old school" six month to a year draw out program, but I would like to see some real build up.
I personally think it would be a good idea to have the title change hands in August at SummerSlam.

Interview With Female Wrestler, Pink

I didn't really know what blog to post this to, since I have a blog for basically Indy wrestlers and two for Lucha Libre, but the title of this blog is "The Beautiful Women of Wrestling" so this fits fine here.

The Indy wrestlers of today harken back to the days of Mildred Burke and the other greats.
And they deserve a lot of respect.

More Wrestlicious News

As was pointed out to me in a comment, the "face" of the new Wrestlicious promotion is Jimmy Hart, but the Wrestlicious promotion is being funded by 19-year-old Jonathan Vargas.
(I would have loved to just post the comment but somehow Blogger "ate"the comment when I tried to publish it. The poster was a "lost" someone, if that person would contact me I'll be more than happy to credit them for pointing this out)
As you may already know, Jonathan won the $35 Million Powerball Jackpot this past May.
So this young man is evidently really making his dreams come true.
Jonathan plans on appearing on the show as "JV Rich", the Rapper/Owner of Wrestlicious.

And the reason Wrestlicious looks so much like GLOW is that the Senior Producer of the show is GLOW alumni Johnny Cafarella.
And here is how some of the female wrestlers got around contract conflicts....
13 episodes were secretly taped last August.
That's how they got Daffney (TNA's Governor) and Madison Rayne (another TNA Knockout) on the show.
And according to sources all over the web, FOX has indeed picked up the show and will run the 13 episodes this Fall.

And since I can't resist it, here's another Wrestlicious promo.....



And there is also a Wrestlicious website up now.....
http://www.wrestlicious.com/

UPDATE: Okay, I found out now and credit for letting me know about this goes to lostangel84!
So thank you very much lostangel84 for putting me on to this!

TNA Knockout Madison Rayne News

TNA Knockout Madison Rayne (Ashley Lane, Lexi Lane) has an interview up at UGO.com.
You can read the interview here:
http://www.ugo.com/sports/madison-rayne/

As a matter of fact, UGO has a lot of interviews with female wrestlers.
They have interviewed most of the TNA Knockouts including Velvet Sky, SoCal Val, Angelina Love, Rhaka Khan and Traci Brooks.

And speaking of Madison, she will be taking on Taylor Wilde on this week's TNA Impact!.


And speaking of Madison again...she and Daffney (TNA's "The Governor") both took part in the Jimmy Hart's all-girl promotion Wrestlicious.
Evidently this was filmed before their TNA contracts, so they wont be appearing on the show.

Wrestlicious

Lacey Von Erich with the "Deer Trapped in the headlights" Claw Hold.....

I mentioned before that Big Vision was thinking about a new GLOW...well it seems Jimmy Hart has done more than think about it.
The promo for his new show "Wrestlicious" looks like GLOW spun through a time warp.
Campy characters, singing, dancing, wrestling.....wow.
Yes it kinda looks like WOW too.
Can Jimmy pull this off?
Well the comments on YouTube seem to show interest in this new project.
GLOW still has a cult following out there.
They may be kinda quiet, but trust me, they are watching.
And Jimmy has an advantage over GLOW.
Their wrestlers were models, some of these ladies are wrestlers that also happen to look good.
Lizzy Valentine, Daizee Haze, Portia Perez, Daffney, Becky Bayless, Roni Jonah and Lacey Von Erich are just a few of the stars I saw on the clip which you can see here:



So how is this gonna do?
Reality is pretty ugly these days.
Maybe we "need" to see a farmer's daughter take on a vampire in a squared circle.
Maybe a headhunter wrestling a lifeguard is a good counter to the constant gloom and doom of the economy.
And add to the mix the fact that these ladies have paid their dues and really can wrestle.....

Who knows, "The Mouth of the South" may be on to something here.

New TNA Knockout Jenna Morasca ?

Sole survivor and million dollar grand prize winner of CBS' “Survivor: The Amazon”in 2003, Jenna Morasca has signed with TNA.
Why?
I have ragged WWE for signing women that have nothing to do with wrestling, and now TNA turns around and does it.
It can't be star power.
I had to look up who she was.
I mean she won in 2003, that was six years ago.
So why is she in TNA?




Former WWE Diva Joy Giovanni was backstage at Monday's Raw in San Antonio, Texas.
Could she possibly be thinking about a come back?
Maybe in time for the 25 Diva Battle Royal at Wrestlemania?



And rumor has it that the WWE has contacted Luna Vachon to appear in the Battle Royal.
This of course would be better than having Charlie Haas showing up in a dress.

More Diva's Battle Royal News and a TNA Sarah Stock Update

"Okay Steph, suit up, you're going out there...."

Molly Holly will not be appearing in the Diva's Battle Royal at Wrestlemania 25.
During the Wrestlemania weekend she'll be signing autographs, but she wont be working in the ring.
But at the rate Divas seem to be dropping out, WWE maybe making a call begging her to reconsider.

Debra Marshall (Debra) will not be at Wrestlemania 25 either.
Like Lita (Amy Dumas) she'll be in Houston at Booker T's charity event on April 3rd.

And I hate to say this, but it looks like WWE Hall of Famer Mae Young will be in the Battle Royal.
UPDATE: According to the WWE, the 86 year old Mae Young will NOT be in the Battle Royal at Wrestlemania 25.

I wonder why no one has asked if Stephanie McMahon will be in the Battle Royal?
She was the WWF Women's Champion at one point.......

And now SuperLuchas.net is saying that Sarah Stock (Dark Angel) is NOT going to TNA.
We know that Sarah still has several CMLL match obligations in Mexico, so it may be awhile before we know for sure anyway

Lita not at Wrestlemania?

It appears now that Lita will not be at Wrestlemania 25.
She has e-mailed fans saying that she will instead be at Booker T's Legends of Wrestling Fanfest charity event on Friday.

As MC pointed out, Sunny is rumored to be at Wrestlemania 25.
