Maria’s improvement
Sunday, March 23rd, 2008I haven’t been a big fan of the tired, old storyline involving WWE Diva Maria and one-time InterContinental Champ Santino Marella; the abusive. controlling boyfriend vs. compliant beauty storyline has been done to death over the years, with probably Macho Man Randy Savage/Miss Elizabeth and Marc and Rena Mero being the most successful iterations of it.
Yet I must say that it doesn’t require the services of a CAT5e to suss out the in-ring improvements Maria has shown; her recent matches finally have her pulling off enough convincing moves to rank her right up there with other battlin’ WWE divas like Candace Michelle, Mickie James and Melina. Sure, none of them really measure up to the days of Lita and Trish Stratus, but hey… those days are long gone now.
