Midajah - Melinda O'Hearn - Melinda McCullum

Looking back at the ladies that are the most popular here on this blog, I'm surprised at times just how much interest the World Championship Wrestling (WCW) can still stir up.
Case in point, Midajah (aka Melinda O'Hearn, aka Melinda McCullum).
The favorite "freak" of Scott Steiner was born on March 23rd,1973 in Seattle,Washington.

This five foot three, 100 pound beauty was trained by the WCW Powerplant (a pro wrestling school located in Atlanta, Georgia, owned and operated by WCW) and made her pro wrestling debut in 1999.
As I mentioned, she was one of Scott Steiner's freaks and came into the WCW at the same time as Tylene Buck, April Hunter, Kim (Shakira) Kanner and Pamela Paulshock as nWo girls.

When the WWE bought WCW, Midajah went to World Wrestling All-Stars (WWA) with Scott, and later managed Perry Saturn.
Then she went to Ultimate Pro Wrestling and trained at their wrestling school before leaving wrestling altogether.
(Despite what a few websites say, she did get in the ring occasionally)




Today Melinda works as a personal fitness trainer and has her website up: http://www.midajah.com/.

PWI's Top Ten Female Wrestlers - November 12th

Over at the PWI (Pro Wrestling Illustrated) Ratings at PWI.com, for the period ending November 12, 2010, these are the top ten female wrestlers....


The WWE's Natalya

1. Natalya
2. Mercedes Martinez
3. Madison Rayne
4. Madison Eagles
5. Angel Orsini
6. Mickie James
7. Jessicka Havok
8. Layla El
9. Tina San Antonio
10. Marti Belle

Interesting here is that the WWE only has two female wrestlers in the top ten, and TNA has two.
The other six are all from Indy wrestling promotions (although Mercedes did do Maria Toro in Wrestlicious).

Speaking of Indy promotions, I headed over to G.L.O.R.Y.'s Hot 100 chart, to find it hasn't been updated since July 25th, 2010?
Well the G.L.O.R.Y. site itself is being updated, so that's something.

Mickie James Versus Tara - Turning Point

Well I guess now Mickie James is firmly entrenched in TNA.
The former WWE Diva turned TNA Knockout will be facing another former WWE Diva turned Knockout Tara at the TNA PPV Turning Point on November 7th.

Tara is allegedly angry at Mickie, because she thinks that Mickie had something to do with Tara's WWE release.
Of course this is all storyline because Tara (Victoria) left the WWE back in January 2009 on her own terms.
But you need something to fuel the fire right?



One thing I have noticed since Mickie has arrived on TNA, is that the "Piggy James" thing has been laid to rest.
TNA seems to be celebrating Mickie's voluptuousness.
Look at her "Daisy Dukes" and tied off plaid shirt wrestling gear.
And another thing I have noticed, is that the fans (mainly the male ones) seem to be firmly behind the curvy look.



You have to admit, back in the old days, you didn't see model thin ladies duking it out in the ring.
And you wont see that with the shapely Mickie and Tara going at it in the ring.

The Top Ten Female Wrestlers for September 2010

I haven't done a Top Ten female wrestlers list here in awhile, so I thought I'd do a ten best of the best here on this blog.
Really, it's kind of interesting to me what womens wrestlers are popular because it's not always who you'd think.
And it also shows one wrestling promotion's pretty much total domination of the ranks.
Guess which one.


Maryse, WWE.com

1. Maryse
Yes she is hands down the winner.
The absolutely most searched for lady here.
And it appears I'm not the only one that thinks she is being totally misused at the moment by the WWE, check out Renee Gerber's article over at Bleacher Report.

2. Gail Kim
Another talented young lady that’s being sadly underused by the WWE.
Former WWE Womens's Champ and Former TNA Knockout Champ.
And what is she doing now?

3. Candice Michelle
Not even a Diva anymore, but strong enough to show up at number 3.

4. Mickie James
Again, another former WWE Diva in at number 4.
Now she's a TNA Knockout.
But for how long....?

5. Melina
Really, the woman that should have the WWE Unified Divas Championship belt around her waist.
At least I think so.

6. Layla
Probably one of the most beautiful Divas out of the whole bunch.
And one half of The Beautiful...I mean Lay-Cool.

7. Christy Hemme
Former TNA Knockout and current backstage interviewer for TNA.

8. Michelle McCool
PWI's Female Wrestler of the year and the WWE Unified Divas Champion.
And yes a lot of people think that's because she's "Mrs. Undertaker".

9. Torrie Wilson
Former WWE Diva for what, over 2 years now?
But still in at number nine.

10. Beth Phoenix
And finally one of the best women that the WWE has on the roster.
I really cannot wait to see her get back in the ring.

Honorable Mention:
Trish Stratus
Victoria (Tara didn't rank, it was Victoria everyone wanted to see)
Velvet Sky
Maria
Chyna

Why Isn't Maryse Wrestling?

One of the most popular women on this blog is WWE Diva Maryse.
Okay, she's THE most popular woman here, so why isn't the WWE doing anything with her?
Did she make the higher ups mad?
Is she injured?
Why is the former two time holder of the WWE Divas Championship regulated to little more than Ted DiBiase's valet?

Is this the best we're gonna get from "The Sultry Diva" now?



Yeah I know, when did I suddenly care when one of the "models turned wrestler" isn't involved in competition?
But as I have stated before Maryse, Michelle McCool and Kelly have worked on their ring skills.
And even if she's not one of the best wrestlers the WWE has, she is a really good heel.

Aloisia's Replacement - Kaitlyn

Here's the replacement for the giant Aloisia, Kaitlyn, also known as Celeste Bonin or Ricki Vaughn
I'll be interested to see how she does in the ring.
She seems to be doing pretty well with her character so far.
And the internet seems to like her.

Speaking of Aloisia, The Bleacher Report has an interview up with her that you can see here

WWE NXT Goes FCW Divas

It looks like the WWE will finally have an all female wrestling show.
Kinda.
Season 3 of WWE NXT will be all FCW Divas.
Allegedly SyFy was ready to pull the plug on the show because it was getting lower ratings than ECW had during it's run.
But someone figured out.....
"Hey...let's use beautiful women!"
Wow, you guys are quick.

Okay I'll stop complaining and take a look at the FCW Divas that will be competing...


Without a doubt, the Diva that's gonna attract the most attention is Aloisia, who you may know from the Indy wrestling promotions as Isis the Amazon.
Yes this woman lives up to that name at six foot nine.
Yes...six...foot...nine.
Even if she doesn't win the competition, I expect the WWE to pull a "Diva Search" and hire her anyway.

UPDATE: It looks like Aloisia has been removed from the line up.

The NXT ring announcer Jamie Keyes will be stepping into the ring as well.
Jamie's real name is Brittany Beede and she was born on December 31st, 1984 in Saraosota, Florida.

AJ Lee's real name is April Jeanette, and she was born on March 19, 1987 in Union City, New Jersey.
She has held the Queen of FCW title in Florida Championship Wrestling.


Next up is Aksana who is Lithuanian fitness model, bodybuilder Zivile Raudoniene.
Aksana was born on April 29, 1982 in Lithuania.
This five foot five, one hundred and thirty pound competitor has had first place finishes at the 2006 NPC Metropolitan, the NPC Pittsburgh, the 2007 IFBB New York Pro and the 2009 Arnold Classic.


Naomi Night's real name is Trinity McCray, and she too has held the Queen of FCW title.
Before wrestling, Naomi was a cheerleader with the Orlando Magic.
The WWE signed her in 2009.

Maxine, formerly known as Liviana in FCW (Karlee Perez), will also be competing.

You can see the NXT Divas being introduced by their pros here

It looks like this will be the last cycle of NXT unless the numbers go way up.

UPDATE: Since Aloisia is gone, will we get Ricki Vaughn or Christina Fox to replace her?
