Curvaceous wrestler leads WWE stars into Barrie Molson Centre – Diva Maria can’t wait to strut into the ring at the Barrie Molson Centre and hear the deafening din that only hard-core wrestling fans can make.
“It’s instant gratification,” Maria says of the thrill of the live audience. “When you step through that curtain, there is no feeling like that to have fans screaming…it’s all about entertaining the fans.”

Maria is currently in the lead, but not by much!
Team Mickie is out first for this pay-per-view rematch. Ross says that the losers requested this match.
The match starts off with all 12 Divas brawling in the ring. The bell sounds and it’s Kelly in the ring with The Glamazon. Beth slams Kelly and picks her ip on her shoulders, ramming her into the turnbuckles. Victoria comes in and goes to work on Kelly. She tags in Melina who continues punishing Kelly. Kelly counters and gets a 2 count until Phoenix breaks the count.
It’s Mickie and Jillian in the ring now and Mickie clocks Beth, then kicks Victoria. Mickie continues dominating Jillian until Layla kicks her in the back. Mickie stills rolls up Jillian out of nowhere and gets the pinfall for the win.
Winners: Maria, Ashley, Cherry, Kelly Kelly, Michelle McCool and Mickie James
Backlash & RAW media up soon!
With the help of Natalya, Jillian, Melina, Victoria and Layla, Beth Phoenix dominated the thrilling tag match and picked up the pinfall over Ashley. But Phoenix and friends’ victory was far from easy. During the sexiest match at Backlash, the Divas’ battle turned into absolute pandemonium as the 12-woman fight raged on outside of the ring.
Throughout the 12-Diva Tag Team Match, McCool, Maria, Cherry, Kelly Kelly, Ashley and Women’s Champ James demonstrated that they are forces to be reckoned with in the Divas’ roster. Ashley looked like she’d never back down or give up against The Glamazon. But Phoenix showed that while she might not hold Women’s gold, she’s still a dominant Diva as she forcefully drove her team to victory at Backlash.
Poor Candice Michelle missed a big opportunity at this year’s WrestleMania.
She was meant to be taking part in a BunnyMania match – teaming with fellow Playboy playmate Maria – but suffered a serious injury just days before.
The good news for Candice though is that Maria told us she’d like to partner the gorgeous brunette in the future.
But not in the ring.
Maria confessed that she loved Candice’s previous shoot for the adult magazine and now wants them to pose for Playboy TOGETHER.
And if that’s set your heart racing, the sexy slideshow below will send it into overdrive.
