“They didn’t look like wrestlers to me, because they weren’t,” The Architect of The Shield recalled. “They had platinum blonde hair and they were all dolled up and had banging bodies. And at 14 years old, seeing women who looked like that blew my mind.” [Laughs]

“Can you imagine if that was your wife?” Axel said. “How awesome would that be? Having her just yelling at you with that raspy voice and the veins in her head? That really turns me on, bro.”

Dolph Ziggler <3's Miss Elizabeth

Yo, Superstars! Which Diva did you have a crush on growing up?

Dolph Ziggler gave a two-pronged answer to why Miss Elizabeth was his childhood crush.

“Miss Elizabeth was like royalty as a child,” Ziggler said. “When she was getting ready to marry ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage, you felt like you knew her.”

When Miss Elizabeth arrived in WCW in the mid-90s, The First Lady of Wrestling’s image and personality reflected the racier era of sports-entertainment. Even with her dramatic change in appearance, Ziggler was still smitten.

“She became this more grown-up, mature woman you had a crush on, just in a different way.”

Kofi Kingston <3's Sunny

Yo, Superstars! Which Diva did you have a crush on growing up?

Kofi Kingston cited the down-to-earth appeal of his childhood crush, Sunny.

“A lot of women on TV seem unattainable,” Kingston said. “But Sunny almost seemed like a tomboy, or like one of the guys.”

Sunny is often cited as being the original Diva with her combination of good looks and intelligence, and served as a manager for many of the biggest Superstars of the 1990s during her WWE Hall of Fame career. For a generation of WWE fans, she represented the perfect woman.

“Maybe it might have been a longshot, but I really felt that down the line maybe me and Sunny could be able to get together,” Kingston admitted. “It didn’t work out that way.”

The Miz <3's Sable

Yo, Superstars! Which Diva did you have a crush on growing up?

When considering his childhood crush, The Miz gave Miss Elizabeth an honorable mention but ultimately picked Sable.

“I thought she was absolutely breathtaking,” said The Miz of the Diva who epitomized The Attitude Era with her outlandish outfits and uncensored personality.. 

The former WWE Champion knows all about blonde bombshells, recently tying the knot with former WWE Diva Maryse.
