Kurt Angle Likes To Suck & The Origin Of The Titty Master: Ten Things You May Have Missed In Wrestling This Week
Wait, let me rephrase that...
8. Beautiful Was Almost Bald
Angelina Love was a guest on the Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast recently, discussing her stint in WWE developmental, current run in Ring of Honor and, naturally, her time as a member TNA/Impact's the Beautiful People.
While Love was initially happy in the company and received a sizeable push, she ended up leaving first because of visa issues and then creative differences.
Angelina spoke about how she was at first happy with TNA President Dixie Carter and writer Vince Russo, but didn't like things as much when new creative people were brought in, mentioning how Dixie had an out-of-the-blue request for her.
"If you weren't ex-WWE, or if they didn't come up with a storyline for you, you were not used. I was paid per appearance. After that, Dixie told me that she wanted me to shave my head and do a completely different character. I was like, 'What part did you say?', and she just couldn't get out of the conversation fast enough.
Nobody seemed to care at that time. Bruce Prichard was there. Eric Bischoff was there. I was not a fan of theirs so I decided it was time for me to go. After five years of me and Velvet killing it, if they couldn't see my worth at that point, I didn’t need to stay there".
Add another to the pro-Russo column, folks. That's now fifteen wrestling personalities that like him, to five hundred who don't.
