Lita’s final match in Survivor
: November 28th, 2006
During the recent Survivor Series pay per view Lita finally had her last match with the WWE in particular and wrestling in general. The match was her defense of the Women’s Championship title and she defended it against Mickie James. It was one of the more spirited matches in the whole pay per view event and the crowd lapped up everything. Lita eventually lost the belt to Mickie James and she had this weird interaction with Cryme Tyme and Lita was left in the ring, basically frustrated and acting like she was duped.If I will judge …
Lita to retire
: November 26th, 2006![]()
Finally, it is official. After months of speculation on whether Amy Dumas otherwise known as Lita is going to retire from wrestling, the confirmation finally happened in last week’s episode of Raw.
After the fourth straight week of battling Mickie James (and the third straight week of putting up a lopsided handicap match), Lita made the announcement after defeating her opponent with a moonsault. Actually, the moonsault went awry as Lita’s right knee landed squarely on Mickie’s face. I still do not know if she got injured but the impact was so strong that I would not be …
Go, Go Miss Jackie!
: November 23rd, 2006
One of the most entertaining gimmicks and characters in the WWE was the wrestler Rico’s gimmick. He played a flamboyant homosexual who fluttered his lashes at his opponents, spanked their bottoms and even kissed on the lips. This was way before Guido started his Strongest Man in a Dress gimmick. Whereas, Guido is entertaining but also menacing, Rico was all about the comedy of it all. He was very hilarious in the ring and really went all out to make fans happy.One other thing that Rico brought with him to make people happy was his valet …
The lure of Jazz
: November 21st, 2006
One of the toughest looking WWE Divas was Jazz. There is no denying it, she has the demeanor and the on screen presence that is quite distinct from any of the other Divas in the WWE.Jazz is actually a study in opposites. She has probably the mellowest and sultriest theme song in the whole of the WWE (the smoky sax solo) and yet when she enters the ring you feel this real disconnect between what you see and what you hear. Jazz is perpetually scowling and looks like she is just waiting to beat up anyone …
Vivacious Ivory
: November 19th, 2006
The WWE has a number of popular Divas that are sadly not with the company anymore.One of my more favorite divas was Ivory (Lisa Moretti), who may also be known to fans as one of the trainers during the second season of Tough Enough.
Ivory has one of the most intimidating physiques among the Divas. She is one buff lady. She may not be as muscular as Chyna but Ivory has managed to maintain a body that despite its muscularity is still very much feminine and petite. This is a hard feat to achieve because there is …
Ariel the Vixen
: November 16th, 2006![]()
If you look at all of the WWE Divas you will notice that even if they do have different gimmicks, different clothes and different characters in the end they are also surprisingly similar and alike. They are more or less glamour girls when they are not wrestling. They have bright personalities (even the heel Divas all look open and forthcoming) and just look like normal babes who are just plain gorgeous and sexy.There is one WWE Diva though that is as different from the other Divas as the Bogeyman is from the other WWE superstars – …
Lita gets the belt
: November 14th, 2006
The Divas Tournament to determine who will get the vacant Women’s Championship in WWE’s RAW has finally ended after weeks of matches. During Cyber Sunday the final match in the tournament was held. It was between Mickie James and Lita – no surprise there as they were the top two favorites to get to the finals among the Divas who entered the tournament. The two Divas fought off resistance from the likes of Melina, Candice Michelle, Victoria and Torrie Wilson – some of the tougher Divas in the tournament.The spirited match between Mickie James and …
Tori: The right girl at the right time
: November 12th, 2006![]()
WWE fans have seen many Divas come and go – some barely made a blip on the radar and never really had a lasting impact. Others, on the other hand, made an indelible mark on the WWE and even after years of not appearing in either Raw of Smackdown is still being talked about and missed by wrestling fans all over the world.
You can definitely count Tori in the latter category. Even though Tori (Terri Poch) only stayed with the WWE for four years before retiring from wrestling, she has made a great name for herself …
Molly Holly: Finally Happy
: November 11th, 2006![]()
One of the most versatile and gung ho Divas in the WWE roster before was Molly Holly. She quite famous for taking high risk stunts while performing in the ring. She was also very consistent and real workhorse.It is just very unfortunate that she left the WWE because of the pressures associated with the nature of the business.
Molly Holly (Nora Greenwald) is one of the few wrestlers who have been unable to really put a distinction between what is happening in real life and inside the ring. Molly, as she indicated in many interviews after asking …
Diva on the Rise
: November 10th, 2006![]()
We have gone to know and love our WWE Divas. We all have our favorite divas and we consistently read about them and spend time trying to get to know them even through just the articles and interviews we read and watching them either on Raw, Smackdown or even ECW.But then there are some divas who are so fresh faced, so new that we only have glimpses as to who they are. This is the kind of diva that Rebecca DiPietro means.
Rebecca is actually a former Diva Search contestant. She was the contestant in the recently …
