Watch Online: Total Divas on E! preview

WWE recently aired a preview of upcoming Divas reality TV show Total Divas. If you missed it, don’t worry. The video has surfaced online and you can check it out above.

Total Divas will air in July and will follow suit of the majority of typical reality TV format, with Divas narrating the events as things unveil. It will feature the Bella Twins, the Funkadactyls – Cameron and Naomi, and Natalya. There have also been rumours circulating about who the new Divas featured will be.

The preview shows hints of romance, bitchiness and drama – the perfect combination for that sort of programme.

Though, while reality TV isn’t my cup of tea, I must admit that Total Divas looks quite exciting. I won’t knock it just yet.

Was the Divas’ WrestleMania match scrapped for Total Divas?

There is a rumour circulating the web that the tag team match involving the Bella Twins and the Funkadactyls was scrapped at the last-minute for backstage footage to be used in the upcoming Divas reality show, Total Divas.

According to a source, there may have been a segment filmed backstage where the Divas find out that the match was scrapped. This rumour hasn’t been confirmed, but the word on the street is that Cody Rhodes genuinely wasn’t happy with the match being scrapped.

The Bella Twins commented on their twitter account when the match was axed, saying that they were “sad and disappointed” about it, while a whopping 90% of OSD visitors felt the same way.

Flavor Of the Month – Wrestlemania Edition!

Welcome to the special festive edition of ‘Flavor Of the Month‘! Because we want holiday shoots to feel special as well, we figured that we would make an exception and give them their own spin-off! The same rules apply. You vote for your favorite festive photoshoot and the shoot with the most votes will be tossed into the year-end ‘Flavor Of the Year‘ poll. It’s so easy, even a caveman can do it!

Although it’s not a holiday, we wrestling fans like to treat it as if it were one. This past month we celebrated Wrestlemania season, and were treated to some special Wrestlemania-themed photoshoots. In addition to the annual Hall Of Fame Diva shoot featuring Alicia, Brie & Nikki, Layla, Lilian, Rosa and Tamina, we also had a special photoshoot featuring Aksana, Alicia, Brie & Nikki, Cameron, Naomi, Natalya, Rosa and Tamina donning their event shirts.

Raw Spoilers: April 22nd

Divas Set For Reality Show

Remember all those years ago when there were rumblings of a possible Divas reality show, but plans never actually came into fruition? Well hang onto your knickers, folks! It’s finally happening! From the network that brought you the Kardashians, E! has announced that a brand new show – Total Divas – will be added to the network lineup, with the Bella Twins, Cameron, Naomi and Natalya rounding up the cast, as well as newly signed Divas Natalie Eva Marie and Joseann ‘Jo-Jo’ Offerman! WWE.com issued the official press release:

The WWE Universe will get up-close and personal with the Divas like never before when E! launches a brand-new reality show highlighting the professional and personal lives of WWE’s leading ladies.

Set to debut this summer, “Total Divas” will feature an unprecedentedly in-depth look at what it means to be a WWE Diva in all senses of the word. With complete and utter access to the backstage workings of WWE, the show examines the preparation and fallout from matches, the romantic entanglements of a WWE locker room and, of course, the efforts of prospective new Divas to break through into the ranks.

The show will highlight the lives of five current WWE Divas — Natalya, The Bella Twins and The Funkadactyls — and hit the ground running, following a tag team match between The Bellas and Funkadactyls on the last Raw before WrestleMania 29. The show will follow the lives of WWE’s women as they travel around the country, living, loving and competing along the way. Viewers will also be introduced to Eva Marie and Jo-Jo Offerman, two prospective new Divas who have yet to earn their stripes, and will be tested along the way before they’re accepted into WWE’s prestigious women’s corps.

“We are excited to work with E! on the launch of ‘Total Divas,’ a series that will showcase the professional and personal lives of WWE’s multi-talented female performers,” WWE Executive Vice President of Television Production Kevin Dunn said. “There is no series on the air that can rival the charm, beauty, larger than life personalities, drama and glamour that this show will deliver.”

“Total Divas” represents an unprecedented partnership between E! and WWE, and will surely provide the WWE Universe with a no-holds-barred insight into both the lives of the Divas and WWE’s flagship event, WrestleMania 29.

“I’m thrilled for E! and WWE to join forces and pull back the curtain on one of pop culture’s most fascinating pastimes,” E! President Suzanne Kolb said. “With tens of millions of weekly fans at their disposal, these glamorous, entertaining and tough women prove that behind the glitz of the spotlight, the locker room drama and the jockeying for position within the organization, they are all drawn to one thing: stardom.”

Divas Shine At the Hall Of Fame

Trish Stratus wasn’t the only Diva shining at the Hall Of Fame! Another exciting class has come and gone…. and the Divas kept up with their annual tradition of posing in their gorgeous evening gowns from this event. This past week WWE.com treated us to another edition of the Hall Of Fame Divas shoot with a gallery featuring Alicia Fox, Brie & Nikki, Layla, Lilian Garcia, Rosa Mendes and Tamina Snuka! Though we wish every Diva were featured (see: Vickie Guerrero and Aksana!) all the Divas featured look as stunning as ever. Why don’t you have a look for yourselves?

SmackDown ReBound April 12, 2013 – Six Diva Tag Match continues old and new feuds.

Divas Champion Kaitlyn’s reign has been a little lackluster to say the least with her having a short feud with AJ Lee before disappearing for 2 weeks. Now the champion has returned to the squared circle to revisit her old feud with Tamina Snuka as she teams with the Funkadactyls (Cameron & Naomi) to take on Tamina Snuka and the Bella Twins.

Take a look at the match below (match begins at 2:15).

REACTION:

I thought the match was strong in developing the feud between the Funkadactyls and the Bella Twins. I felt as if Tamina and Kaitlyn only played the filler role to fill out the six diva quota they needed while the other girls stole the show. Naomi is probably the greatest female wrestlers in WWE right now behind Alicia Fox and Natalya. She will forever be great to me in the ring. Cameron only got involved in an outside catfight which was good and the Bellas and Tamina used good strategy to distract Naomi enough to have her lose the match. I wanted to see Tamina and Kaitlyn go at it a little more, but the spears in the beginning of the match was priceless.

Average grading is B+.

NXT Lookout April 10, 2013 – Bella’s and The Funkadactyls continue feud; While Emma and The First Lady of NXT give amazing promos.

NXT has certainly been the place to look out for the Divas and as such their Divas division is beginning to flourish while the main roster girls get lost in the fray on RAW and SmackDown.

This week on NXT Emma and Renee Young have a hilarious interview, Summer Rae retains her flawless nature of being the First Lady of NXT and the Funkadactyls continue their on going feud with the Bella Twins.

The first feature that’s up is Emma’s interview followed by the Bellas vs the Funkadactyls. Take a Look Below.

Next is Summer Rae dubbing herself the First Lady of NXT and retaining her FLAWLESS image.

REACTION:

I honestly liked Emma’s promo. I was never a fan of her to begin with and I feel WWE lost the momentum with her as far as what to do with her hence her silly klutz dancer gimmick. I feel tonight she shined in the interview and I also like Renee Young even though she should’ve been a competing Diva instead of backstage interviewer.

Onto the match, I thought it was good for what it was. The Bellas and the Funkadactlys have been feuding for a while and their matches always seem the same in that the Bellas dominate then get taken out in the end, but here was a little different. Naomi worked over the Bellas for a good amount of time and then got the hot tag to Cameron who had good momentum going in the early beginning. I feel as if the storyline is getting a little dry now even if I am happy to see Cameron and Naomi in the ring. I feel WWE should add them to the NXT roster and have them compete weekly or introduce a Divas Tag Team Title so either team could win it and feud with the other as this would at least give their feud a back story.

I LOVED SUMMER RAE. As I stated before she is the greatest Heel on the roster right now. She’s bitchy, catty, rude, beautiful and can back it up in the ring. I feel NXT needs to take notice between her and Paige and I love that even if there is no match between the two that their feud is carried over with backstage work. GOOD JOB NXT!!

All in All I’ll grade NXT with an A.

See Ya Next Week.
