Name: Maria From: Ottawa, Ill. Career Highlights: Competed in the 2004 RAW Diva Search; RAW backstage interviewer Initially impressing fans as a contestant for the 2004 RAW Diva Search, Maria signed on with WWE later that same year as a backstage correspondent and interviewer. Quickly earning a reputation as the oblivious RAW backstage reporter, Maria seems to ask the wrong questions, irritating and amusing WWE Superstars and Divas alike. Maria has already had several memorable moments, including interviewing Eugene and William Regal right after they won the World Tag Team Championship from La Resistance. For it was this particular situation which led to an overwhelmed Eugene dousing Maria in chocolate milk as part of a post-match celebration. However, not everyone is as thrilled with Maria. Such was the case when Maria once again asked the wrong question in an interview with Trish Stratus, leading to Trish beating Maria senseless. Sometimes it simply doesn’t pay to be the RAW backstage interviewer … Making an impression on RAW nearly every week, Maria is hopeful of continuing to ask the hard questions – even if they’re obvious or downright wrong!
