Diva Working With Two Broken Ribs, New Candice Look Pics, More

CO-ED Magazine recently conducted an interview with WWE Diva Maria. They ask her if it hurts getting bodyslammed. Maria says it definitely does. Maria says she believes she has two broken ribs. "Oh yeah, definitely. It definitely hurts. I've gotten a couple of injuries. I busted open a lip not too long ago. I busted open my nose. I broke my thumb. Right now I think I have two broken ribs," Maria said. She also talks about what past Divas she looked up to, her take on Missy Hyatt, Sensational Sherri & Miss Elizabeth, her favorite musicians, and her plans outside of wrestling. "WWE is the most important thing to me. Women's Championship is what I want the most. Beyond that, movies, maybe something musically, I hope to have my own fashion line someday. There's a lot of things I'm interested in doing."

WWE.com has posted some brand new photos of Candice Michelle showing off her shorter hairstyle and wearing a "curtain-like" dress. Speaking of Candice, she is scheduled to make an appearance at the 2nd Annual WWE Venice Beach event in Venice Beach, CA on Saturday, August 9. Other stars scheduled to appear include Mr. Kennedy, Carlito, The Miz, John Morrison, Funaki, Shannon Moore, Tommy Dreamer, Mike Knox, Layla, and Lena Yada, who is still employed. Last year, two wrestling matches were held at the event.

The brand new WWE Divas Championship was revealed at this past Tuesday's SmackDown taping. According to a fan in attendance, the belt looks similar to the gaudy WWE Title belt, except it has pink diamonds encrusted all over it.
