DXX

Massacre

She initially worked for WWE after success in the first Diva Search contest, since then she has posed for Playboy. During the WWE/DXX re-brand, Maria left the company quietly, however in May 2008 after Courtney went on honeymoon and eventually left the company itself she came back to work. She currently uses a 'Girl-Next Door' type gimmick which has elements of her dippy persona she had used before.

Despite not being an in ring performer since her return Maria is widely regarded as a Diva alongside other Diva workers Charlotte Cross, Sarah Green and Ayanna Kaktus. Maria has limited wrestling experiences from her WWE days.

On 8th August 2008 it was revealed she was in a relationship with Xtreme Steven, the relationship was continued on-screen when they were caught in a sexual encounter after an interview. On 18 August, Maria became concerned after the recent staff changes made by Chris Jericho, whilst she was relieved not to be fired she became involved in an argument with new interviewer Chelsea Korka.

She appeared briefly at DXX Anniversary interrupting Korka's interview with returning Wayne Gallagher.

On the 1st September, Maria took Justin Roberts' role as ring announcer, leaving Chelsea riled by Jerichos' decision, leading to yet another catfight. Jericho then announced at the start of the show, both ladies would compete for their job. The following week, Maria vowed to beat Chelsea when over hearing her bad mouthing alongside Leila. Despite fan support and a better wrestling knowledge, Chelsea used the brass knuckles to pick up the victory , therefore leaving Maria out of a job.

Much to her suprise a week later, she returned as Massacre's ring announcer following the departure of Justin Roberts. It was also teased that Maria may be heading into the ring later on in the month on a more frequent basis.

Maria represented Massacre at The Final Cut in a Diva Hollywood Lingerie Contest which was announced days before the event, it featured the Backstage Divas- Chelsea, Zezi Pasqual and Courtney who were all fixed on either Massacre or DXX Rated. Backstage we saw all four quarelling and despite it being a Massacre vs. Rated event, Courtney and Maria united against their bitchy colleagues. In the ring, Maria proved a fan favourite up until the arrival of Santina Marella, who was announced as the winner, when Maria and Courtney celebrated with Santina, Zezi and Chelsea tried to attack however Maria and Courtney countered this move and continued to celebrate.

In the weeks leading up to Eye For An Eye, Leila Darcie -Divas Director- booked a 10 Diva tag team match making it the largest Diva competition on scale, Maria despite not being in the ring for over half a year was booked along with Chelsea Korka, who had been bullying Maria and Santina Marella over the Fina Cut result since her loss. Maria was eliminated early on by Raisha Saeed, but her team won.

DXX Rated

After vowing to return to in ring action,Maria re-debuted on DXX Rated where she was able to defeat opponent, Brie Bella in clean competition, she executed the Beautiful Bulldog to get the win. However after the match, Maria and Brie were attacked by another newcomer, this time in the form of Amazing Kong. She still continues to work for Massacre however.

Whilst she was unable to compete, Maria took part in a Halloween costume match, dressed as a cat, despite fan support from the mases she lost out to new Diva Lexi Lane, she celebrated none the less with Courtney and Ashley Hise for the new girl, despite the jealousy of Zezi Pasqual, Leila and Shelly Martinez.
