New York: Diva style

"I have to agree with the guy below my review, this years Divas DVD was much better than last years. It's been a few years since there's been a lingerie photo shoot, & it's a nice change. Most of the girls shoots are on location, most notably Maria (Brooklyn Bridge), Ashley (Central Park & Times Square), Stacy (Madison Square Park), Melina (Grand Central Station), & Candice Michelle (New York City). The other girls have not-so recognizable backgrounds. Lita has a darker looking shoot, apparently taken in some subway. Trish's shoot is in a gym (very nice). Then there's some regular studio looking shoots, like Sharmell, Kristal, Mickey James, & Torrie Wilson. The best segments are Trish & Melina. Melina is a little difficult to listen to though, as she is in character, talking about 'paparazzi', & how everyone in Grand Central Station 'is there for (her)'. They might not have been there for her, but I'm sure they stayed for her. Her shoot is VERY hot. Anyway, it follows the standard Divas DVD format...mostly photo shoot, some in-ring clips.



On the Chapters menu:

left click Sharmell for a little tid-bit on the Miss Black America pageant.

left click Melina - Melina talks about taking pictures with Kane, a police dog named after the Big Red Machine.



Extras include the semi-usual Divas 'matches' (arm wrestling, pillow fights, costume contests), & 4 actual matches:



Trish vs Victoria (Womens Championship, Raw - 9/26/05)

Ashley/Trish vs Victoria/Candice/Torrie (Handicap Bra & Panties Match, Raw - 10/3/05)

Six Diva Tag Match (Raw - 10/17/05)

Santa's Little Helper Match (Tribute To The Troops, Raw - 12/19/05)



Behind the scenes magazine shoots, 2005 Diva Search weekly recaps, & a little more bonuses complete this DVD.



Again, better than last years, & recommended, but still can't top Tropical Pleasures."

Very good theme and better extras than last year's DVD

"This is an improvement over last year's, thanks partly to the theme. After so many bikini DVD's, seeing the ladies in lingere was a nice new theme and it's cool seeing them shooting around New York. Each lady is profiled along with shots of them in the ring, interviews and more. Even better is some of the interviews are in character, like Maria being a ditz and Melina being a haughty spotlight hog.



There are more matches, mostly from RAW although I do wish they'd included the Divas battle royal from the Eddie Guerrero tribute RAW, which was pretty good. Also surprised that they didn't have the Lita/Edge wedding where they teased a Matt Hardy appearance. However, overall, this is a pretty good way to look at the ladies of WWE. Just a shame they decided to dump Christy Hemme's stuff when she left the company."
