I ask this because Gail Kim, Melina, and Beth Phoenix all are 30 and over seem to have disappeared. I know Gail and Melina are in a twitter war and are on Superstars and Beth sporadically makes appearances on RAW. Is this age discrimination because they are women? Gail Kim is 34 years old Melina is 32 years old Beth Phoenix is 30 years old Rosa Mendes is 31 years old Layla is 33 years old

Divas are a lot like running backs. Once you hit 30, the GM goes for younger and cheaper.

I would take a 33 year old Layla over Kelly Kelly at 19 any day of the week.

Ivory'd give some of the other divas a run for their money, and if she isn't already 50, she's damn close to it.
That said, it seems for the average Diva, 30's the sunset. Unless you're exceptional in the ring or in the looks department, you don't make it to mid, let alone 40.

How long did Victoria last? She was 37 when she left. Currently 40.

If you can perform in the ring or are pretty over they'll probably keep you well into mid 30s.
Trish, Lita, and McCool left on their own, and they were going to push Layla until the injury. If you're just eye candy, then you probably have less time.

As long as you can perform and connect with the crowd, as well as be good looking, age shouldn't matter.

Hopefully they don't hold tight to the 30 year old rule, I want some Sara Del Rey on my TV!

I don't know why you're so shocked, as she more or less looks her age. 33 is not even close to being "old."

Surprised? Well, if Mae Young can be a diva, I say there is no limit.

Everyone should be happy WWE didn't have HD in the attitude era. The leathery skank divas they had then would probably look pretty busted in HD.
