BIOGRAPHY
Maria debuted as Raw's bubbly and somewhat dumb interviewer. Asking the wrong questions at the wrong times, just basically irritating wrestlers and divas alike. She started out wrestling in Lingirie matches, and battle royals usually she would stay away and try not to get very physical in the matches. A notable event is when she interviewed former Raw General manager Eric Bischoff and he scheduled her in a match with Kurt Angle in which she received an Angle Slam. Maria then went on to feud with Lita and have an interesting relationship with John Cena, after that, she feuded with Melina. After, Maria developed an on-screen relationship with Santino Marella often being the victim of Santino's antics from other superstars. When Ashley returned to Raw she pushed Maria to pose for the cover of playboy, which, didn't settle so well with Santino who insisted she not do that. After she won the right for posing of playboy by beating Beth Phoenix in a match she broke up with Santino after he requested she not pose. Then, at WrestleMania XXIV she faced The Glamazon Beth Phoenix and Melina in a BunnyMania match with her partner Ashley Massaro. Despite losing she kissed Snoop Dogg at the end for a perfect ending to Maria's WrestleMania. In the 2008 Draft Maria was sent to Smackdown and made her debut beating Victoria. She then went on to wrestle her friend Michelle McCool for the WWE Diva's Championship. After Maria refereed a match between Michelle and Maryse in which Maryse won and became the new WWE Diva's champion Michelle attacked Maria and claimed she purposely made sure she lost the match thus signifiying her heel turn on Maria. She is currently still wrestling on Smackdown.
