Does anyone here know if it’s true that Trina Michaels has been given a development contract from the WWE, because from wrestling threads I have read and from some of her youtube videos I’ve seen it appears that she has received one?

Hmmmm. Mainstream porn is becoming more violent (gagging, choking, slapping etc.). Wrestling is becoming more porn-y (Tylene Buck getting into porn, lots of female wrestlers posing in Playboy, etc.). Anyone else wonder if one day they will actually be the same thing?
Imagine a world where one person buys a DVD and says "hey, there's a lot of porn on this wrestling DVD". Someone else buys the same DVD and says "hey, there's a lot of wrestling on this porn DVD". And they're both right.

Last I heard she was starting training in Southern California. Not seen any confirmation on a WWE deal in any of the newsletters. WWE developmental is now in Florida, she'd have to move there full time if she had a deal. If a deal was in place, considering the physical demands of a wrestling career, I'd guess her other career would have to end anyway.
WWE also recently shifted to PG rated programming and are going for a more child and family-friendly product.

David Starsky,
Not necessarily, Lena is presently training in California. Granted it is do to her father being in poor health and her desire to want to close to him.

If Trina does have a WWE development deal and ends up making it to the main roster from some of her wrestling related youtube videos I could seen her doing a Punk / Skater Girl type gimmick, ala a sexy wrestling version of the way Avril Lavigne looked during the music videos for Sk8er Boi and Complicated.

Anyone who's followed pro wrestling for any amount of time knows that a development contract doesn't mean anything. I'd wager the vast majority of them never pan out into anything even remotely resembling a roster spot or television time for the people who get them.
I was going to say that I doubt a former pornstar has any chance of seeing herself on WWE television in a recurring role. But if Trina Michaels landing an actual contract leads to a premature burial of Ramsey, then I'm fuckin' pulling for her.

Vince McMahon has made it a point to stay away from "porn girls" in the past. Playboy is ok, esp. if you do it when working for the company, but porn is not. So this is probably just a rumor and Trina doesn't have a developmental deal because she'd bring in too much heat.
That's why Jenna Jameson never worked for the company, but did work for ECW. So if Jenna cant get hired there (as was considered) during the height of the Attitude era when everyone was doing hardcore matches, crotch shots and the girls were wearing as little as possible, then I can't see it happening now when the company is sadly moving toward more kid friendly product.
Of course for any red blooded American male, no matter what age, Trina Michaels is most assuredly a very friendly presence ;-)
This would be awesome if true, but I just don't see it being true.

Me either. Vince allegedly has a policy saying there's no hiring of anyone who's done even just nude shots in the past (one reason we've never seen the luscious April Hunter on WWE. Also, I say allegedly because nude shots of Mickie James have popped up online) So hiring someone who's well known for doing porn would be totally out of character. Considering they're now publicly traded it's even less likely than it was 10 years ago.

Is there any people here that are friends and/or colleagues of Trina? If so can one or more of you please ask her to come here and post a comment about this issue, or at the very least ask her whether or not it is true? If one or more of you decide to do the latter and she says yes can you all post whether or not she seems to be telling the truth?

CJ: Hey, Trina! Word on the street is you got yourself a WWE developmental contract. Do you mind posting on Adult DVD Talk.com to confirm or deny this? Or you can just tell ME, I'll go back and post what you say and then I'll speculate on whether or not you were being honest!

If Trina will really join WWE then I'm sure we will see it all on her youtube channel. Btw, as much as I love Trina I can't understand her favorite wrestler is douchebag Cena :-(

Sorry Ramsey, it's official.
Tragedy struck the porn world today as the badass Trina Michaels announced her decision to take a break from porn and follow the better angels of her nature into the only-marginally less skeevy world of professional wrestling.
"I can't say this is my 100 percent retirement from porn but I will be gone for a while," Michaels said. She will be feature dancing and shooting as many scenes as possible before she leaves in November for a month of training on the east coast.

Goodbye, Ramsey.
And don't think the crack she left open in the door for a possible (I say "definite") return applies to you, homie.
You're outta here, pal. PEACE!

Vince usually sends newbies to OVW(Ohio Valley Wrestling). Don't know what the southern Cal business is about. XPW isn't that where Jasmine st Clair ended up?

I believe that the WWE ended its relationship with OVW back in February, and Vince now sends his people to Florida Championship Wrestling. With that said, I've heard that WWE talent scouts are seeking to recruit from OVW. As for southern California, it could be for Ultimate Pro-Wrestling (which gave the wrestling world John Cena) or it could even be to attend the New Japan training school/dojo in Los Angeles.

Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be offical yet. Gail is acting all Hamlet on them and hasn't decided to sign yet.
Btw, on topic...I wish Trina the best of luck, but I just can't see Vince singing someone with a porn past when he's trying to make the product more family friendly. It just doesn't make sense.

Thanks for the update.
WWE might not mind hiring someone who's done porn. Candice Michelle did softcore porn and Mickie James did nude pics before arriving in the WWE. Even though they didn't do hardcore porn, I don't see WWE frowning too much upon Trina's background.

Don't worry Ramsey. She has to deal with wrestling promoters now. That means there is no way she is retired from doing anal.

The most true thing said in this thread yet.
As for those talking about Florida and OVW and anywhere else, Trina will have a long way to go before she ends up in any of those farm leagues. They don't take a completely untrained hand and throw them on TV, even in small markets and their developmental territories. If Trina doesn't quit she might make it to one of those places and her making it on to actual WWE TV is an even longer shot. I'm not saying she can't do it but I'd say don't hold your breath. After the money she's made in porn it's going to be hard to take a lot of the shit that comes with being in the wrestling business.
She has NO idea what she's in for.

Does that imply the Divas had to sleaze their way onto TV for real?
So that french canadian hottie...Charise?... had to sleep her way onto TV?
If so, that's totally hot.
Also, I laughed for like a minute straight the last time I tuned in, when the announcer said someone was "the daughter of Jim the Anvil Niedhart." After that I was just seeing Jim in her face and busting a gut.
What would be a tragedy is if they make Trina dress down in some unrecognizable hairdo and outfit to cut down on the number of people who figure out who she is. But they like their cuties cute, so it's more likely they'd just avoid her and play it safe.

before i start, let me say this is definitely no reflection on trina, but totally on wwe. i have absolutely no problem when they have a diva match on, but holy fuck, at least have girls who actually know what they're doing in there! these days, most female wrestlers are just eye candy with really basic and poorly executed moves. (notice i say most, not all) if trina really does go through the training and develops a nice move set, awesome. but if vince is just doing this to get a little ratings spike, then this is gonna be a waste.

OTOH Trish Stratus was one of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen when she first started out. She eventually turned out to be very good though.

Trish Stratus' beginnings were a little different from other WWE Divas, however.
While nowadays they seem to be brought in with the promise of being wrestlers who soon wind up sucking and being simply eye candy, Trish was brought in specifically to be eye candy (the valet/manager of T&A, Test and Albert) before she herself took a genuine interest in becoming an in-ring talent. Trish really wanted it and over time became really good. There are more than a few periods I can recall where she was the best female wrestler on the roster (or trading that honor with Lita).
She's loved, admired and most of all respected by the vast majority of WWE fans for a reason and it's not all her looks.

Im not big on posting on these boards so for much more info look at my myspace page myspace.com/trinamichaelsmania .... as for what company I'm headed to, i wish I could say but right now I have to keep quiet...i hope u all understand and I truly appreciate all of the support....

For the WWE fans that are here do you all think for Trina to have a legit chance of making it to the main roster she must be able and/or willing to do most if not all of the following?
1) Until she gets respected for her in-ring and on-mic abilities tone down her sexiness and wear outfits that aren’t so revealing, maybe like Lita’s ring attire during her time with Team Extreme and/or a female version of Jeff Hardy’s current outfit.
2) In attempt to get people to view her as more than just a former porn star maybe try to do something extreme with her look, like taken on a persona of a really pierced up bald and/or Mohawk having punk chick.
3) She must be twice or three times as great as any current or past WWE superstar (female or male), both in the ring and on-mic. She must be someone Vince couldn’t see not having in his company, like a female version of Stone Cold, The Rock, or Hogan.
4) She must be able to do the types of high flying maneuvers that wrestlers such as the following are able to do with ease.
Evan Bourne
Aj Styles
Kofi
Rey
RVD
5) She must be willing to be a bleeder, participate in hardcore matches, and regularly perform the suicidal type of spots that Jeff Hardy and Sabu have done over the years.

If in fact Trina might sign with WWE, and I wish her the best of luck with whichever company is lucky enough to bring her in, then she doesn't necessarily have to do any of those things.
She just has to have a look or skill set that pleases Vince and co. It's as simple as that. She could prove to be a great worker but not have the promo skills to be a convincing character or she could be great on the mike but not so good in the ring. But if Vince and his TV people like her then she's going to get her shot. That's really the only qualification you need to be on TV.
But whatever happens, she's going to have to put in a lot of hard work and I wish her the best success in making good on this. Hope she gets in there and kicks some ass.

I think she has to show a unique personality to stand out from the other Divas and work on her mic skills. While she does this, she should practice her in-ring moves so that she'd be able to hold her own in the ring whenever she's called on to do so.

Honestly I think the TNA Knockouts are quite boring ..Their skits are not synched very well BUT the WWE Divas need a kick in the ass to cause they aren't to good either! Trina (hopefully WWE bound) will help their RAW or Smackdown or ECW Brands!
