WWE Diva Search(formerlyWWE Raw Diva Search) is an American talent competition that was produced and held byWorld Wrestling Entertainment(WWE). The first winner was Jaime Koeppe, but she did not receive a contract like subsequent winners of the contest. Other winners includedChristy Hemme,Ashley Massaro,Layla El,Eve TorresandEva Marie.In addition to the winners of the yearly contest, WWE has hired several contestants asDivas,the name that WWE gave at the time to the female performers. As of 2021,Maryse Ouelletis the sole remaining female talents signed with WWE to come from the contest. There were many failed attempts at bringing back the competition over the years following the cancellation of the 2008 season, and was at one point going to return in 2019 under the new nameSuperstar Search,but those plans were scrapped.[1][2][3][4]

On June 18, 2003, WWE made a public declaration about their intention to embark on a countrywide quest for a fresh addition to their roster of WWE Divas. The organization emphasized that the final decision regarding the selection of the new diva would rest solely in the hands of the fans.

The 2003 WWE Diva Search invited women aged 18 or above who believed they possessed the beauty, strength, and intelligence required to be the next WWE Diva. As part of the application process, participants were required to submit a photograph of themselves along with a brief written explanation of their aspirations to become a WWE Diva.

On July 1, 2003, fans were given the opportunity to cast their votes for their preferred contestants in the Diva competition. Through fan voting, the contestants were narrowed down to a group of 16 by July 20, and then further reduced to 8 finalists by July 29. The final four Diva hopefuls were determined through fan voting, which concluded on August 6. These remaining four contestants were then awarded a trip to WWE'sSummerSlampay-per-view event inPhoenix, Arizona,where they would compete in a final event that would be broadcast live on a special program called Byte This! The winner of the 2003 WWE Diva Search was ultimately Jamie Koeppe, who was also photographed and prominently featured inWWE RAW Magazine.[5]

In 2004, WWE decided to make an extension of the Diva Search, which included a one-year contract worth $250,000 and was held onRaw.[9][12]Over 7,000 females applied to be a part of the contest.[6]The final ten contestants were chosen on a casting special aired onSpike TVon July 15, with guest judgesTriple H,Randy Orton,Chris JerichoandEdge.[12]

They began airing the weekly Raw Diva Search segments on July 19.[9][12]Despite reported claims by the company that the contest would be handled in a classy manner, the contest involved prospective divas performing suggestive acts on livetelevision,such as "seducing" a male wrestler. Fans were allowed to vote for the winners,[9]but the outcome of the voting process was questioned by media outlets. The eventual winner of the competition was Christy Hemme, who went on to pose inPlayboyand competed atWrestleMania 21for the WWE Women's Championship where she was accompanied to the ring byLita,but ended up withTrish Stratusretaining the title.[7]

Finalists (winner Hemme, runner-up Carmella DeCesare, Amy Weber, and Joy Giovanni)[10]took part in a segment titled "Diss the Diva" on August 30, 2004,[13]which was censored at several points due to foul language and obscenities from the contestants when they were asked to taunt one another verbally. Backstage, the four contestants bickered with and disliked each other, as well.[10]Also, during an earlier segment in the competition, Maria Kanellis gave DeCesare themiddle finger.[11]

Despite only one winner being crowned in the competition each year, WWE hired a large number of the contestants from past contests and immediately placed them in on-camera in non-wrestling roles. From the 2004 Diva Search, Michelle McCool, Amy Weber,[10]Candice Michelle,[12]Maria Kanellis,[11]and Joy Giovanni all received contracts after losing the contest. Several of the girls were sent toOhio Valley Wrestlingto train.

Candice Michelle would become the first Diva Search contestant to win a championship on the main roster, defeatingMelinafor theWWE Women's ChampionshipatVengeance: Night of Champions.

Gia Allemandwas a contestant for the Diva Search.[14]It is unknown what season she was in. Allemand died on August 14, 2013, at 29.

DuringWrestleMania 31,WWE announced that new shows will air on theWWE Network,including a returningWWE Diva Search,which was expected to premiere in the fall of 2015.[46]There was no additional information given until July 2016, when WWE surveyed fans about potential new WWE Network shows, including a new season of Diva Search under a new name (WWE Superstar Search) due to the fact that the term "Diva" was ultimately phased out that year. In addition, the show would've been hosted byLitaandTrish Stratus.[47]

WWE originally announced on January 25, 2019, that the competition would return as a competition show, similar toNXT Seasons 1-5re-entitled,WWE Starsin association withBunim-Murray Productionsincluding casting.[2][3]But on September 29 that year, Squared Circle Sirens reporter Casey Michael confirmed it was canceled.[4]At that time, the focus of the WWE Women's Division has shifted from sex appeal to true athleticism not to mention the fact that indie wrestlers, mixed martial artists and other athletes have pretty much replaced the models when it came to hiring women.
