The Sun's "Top 10 Sexiest WWE Divas"
The Sun just posted a “Top 10 Sexiest WWE Divas” list and Maria came in at number 7. I bit too high in my opinion.
7. Maria
Busty brunette Maria Kanellis started out as a backstage reporter in late 2004 and her ditzy interviewing style added a touch of humour to Raw.
Her on-screen romance with Santino Marella two years ago raised her profile even further, but she hit the big time last April as the latest Diva to peel off for Playboy.
For those interested, here is the entire list:
10. Sherri Martel
9. Terri Runnels
8. Sunny
7. Maria
6. Stacy Keibler
5. Elizabeth
4. Kelly Kelly
3. Torrie Wilson
2. Sable
1. Trish Stratus
Maria Inspired Blog
Maria-Kanellis.org reader Dennis sent in a touching story to us via email, and we just had to share it with everyone. We highly recommend you all go check out his blog which Maria inspired him to write. Heres a brief summary of what Dennis had to say:
My BLOG: About weight loss, setting and achieving your goals, pride, and believing in yourself – inspired by WWE Smackdown Diva MARIA KANELLIS
VISIT MY BLOG – http://fortheloveofmaria.blogspot.com/
The Cause: I just got out of a year and a half long engagement. My girl went all the way across the country to go to school. Instead of saving up, or continuing school myself – I spent all my cash going to see her. I was depressed, I gained weight, and then I met WWE Diva Maria Kanellis. Then I decided it was time for a change.
The Goals: Losing 20-30 pounds, getting tan, getting buff and back on track! ALL BY MARCH 22ND, 2009!!
The Result: To meet Maria again on March 22nd (hopefully I’ll have the chance) and looking my best, I want to get a photo with her. To inspire myself, and to inspire others.
We’d encourage all of you to go read more about his story, and track his progress at his blog.
Jim Ross Mentions Maria
Jim Ross mentioned Maria in his blog.
From what I have heard, Matt Striker and Maria did the on cameras for the June release of the Macho Man Randy Savage DVD release which features 3 disc’s of Savage’s best bouts. Simply by looking at the match compilation, this seems as if it will be an excellent DVD for Macho Man fans who have been clamoring for a Savage DVD from WWE for years. Striker particularly knows the impressive history of Randy Savage and I am sure we will get some unique “nuggets of wisdom” from Mr. “I Hate Pronouns” who rivals the King as one the WWE’s most skilled “ladies men.”

Tribute to the Troops Results
This past weekend WWE filmed their Tribute to the Troops special. Maria had a match against Kelly Kelly, but unfortunately it wont air. Kelly got the win. I did find 2 HQ candids from the match though! Maria looks amazing in a red/white & blue attire. Check them out in the gallery. As I find more, I’ll add them. The Tribute to the Troops special will air December 20th on NBC.
Update: Thanks to our awesome readers for sending in some more pics! I just updated the gallery with 5 more candids, including Maria in a “Santa’s Little Helper” outfit! Maybe she’ll be on TV afterall! Click the gallery link to see the new pics, some of them are HQ!
