Ashley Massaro Linked to Escort Service

[Enigma 0]

From PWI:

 

Thanks to Jay Gunn for the following. ... I'm reading the newest issue of Rolling Stone (with "The Hills" girls on the cover - what has this rag come to?), and there's an article about a high-end escort service in L.A. operated by a woman named "Nici" that setup women like Maxim and FHM models, porn stars, and Playboy Playmates with rich clients who would pay up to $25,000 a night. Of course, she was busted by the FBI, and the Rolling Stone article lists the names of several of Nici's escorts, one of whom is WWE Diva Ashley Massaro. It's an interesting article and worth seeking out.

 

Mike Johnson had a chance to check out the issue, and Ashley is indeed mentioned, with a photo, as a WWE star and Playboy cover girl who was amongst a number of Los Angeles based women attached to the escort service. We should point out that there was no implication that she ever had sex for money, just that she was among the celebrity-type women the service took a fee for in return for setting up meetings with their clientele.

More fuel to the fire Ashley bonfire. She really doesn't have any redeeming qualities does she?

Can you imagine paying $25,000 and you get stuck with Ashley?

Interesting to see what WWE does about this. Candice did porn and she's still around. But I think WWE are sick of ashley anyway and this might be the excuse they need to get rid of her.

 

BTW I hope London knows about this, otherwise he's in for a shock.

They had some Playboy Girl on the Howard Stern talking about this a few weeks back. How she is paid over $20,000 for one night.

Didn't she do it before she was contracted to the WWE?

 

Ashley doing on this on the side despite her WWE contract though, surely WWE are entitled to enquire and possibly fire her over this. I know you can never deny anyone an opportunity to work, but for Ashley to bank her WWE fame to be an escort seems very sleazy, and, I guess, without the WWE's knowledge could lead to her being fired.

Especially with WWE wanting to aim at kids again, this isn't going to look good, not that I can see it being made very public.

 

However, what has Ashley got left to offer?

What has she ever offered? I mean I know she could potentially appeal to all the skater emo boys out there, but really, I doubt they'd watch WWE just for her.

I don't think Candice ever did porn...I know she did some softcore stuff, but not actual porn. Mickie James did some stuff that was probably closer to porn (those photo shoots everyone has seen on the internet).

 

Really wouldn't mind seeing Ashley fired. She sucks in the ring and looks completely awkward and weird, regardless.

False False False

 

Just got buzzed on some BS that is going around. Dont believe it for a second.

Getting in touch with my lawyer as we speak.

No post song because I'm beyond upset.

Surprisingly coherant for an Ashley blog.

My suspicion is that WWE just doesn't want to be blindsided more than anything else. The fed likely knew about Mickie's off-color past and certainly knew about Candice's filmography before hiring the women. Ashley being associated with this "escort" business (if true) could be another matter entirely. We'll see.

Well. Matt Hardy certainly has a type.

I hope she tries to sue the FBI.

Candice did softcore, Cinemax-style porn. That's a lot different than the hardcore version.

[SamoaRowe 0]

Double post, shit man.

[Atticus Chaos 0]

TMZ have picked this up.

[Exslade ZX 0]

Alright two things that made me laugh while looking at some of the info posted above.

 

This post on Ashley's myspace "is £60,000 enough?" And the headline for TMZ being "WWE Diva Fingered in Escort Ring?"

[Lil' Bitch 0]

Holy shit! Didn't see this one coming.

 

Edit: I'm hoping the crowd will chant "She's a hooker!" during Ashley's matches.

[Enigma 0]

Pretty funny how Ashley's spelling, capitalization, and grammar cleaned itself up in that blog post as opposed to her usual "hAy gUyZZZ!!!111" crap.

From the WO.com update:

 

--The current Rolling Stone magazine as well as the TMZ.com web site has a story about a high-end escort service in Los Angeles that hires porn stars, Playboy playmates, Maxim models for rich clients who pay up to $25,000 per night that was just busted by the FBI. Among the names listed as escorts in the article were Ashley Massaro, who was listed as a Playboy cover girl and WWE star. There is an interesting twist here that hasn't come out. There is a bikini model named Ashley Massaro from Las Vegas, who is younger than the WWE's Ashley Massaro and the two are often confused because they look similar. It wouldn't shock me that they are mistaking the two.

 

So, she might actually be telling the truth on this one, and is innocent.

I DEMAND that an evil twin angle be booked!

Now wouldn't that be a kicker. If Ashley Massaro V1.0 is innocent, her lawyer could just line up the defendants for the lawsuits.

It depends how recently all this was. If it was in the last year or two, it was likely Fake Ashley because Real Ashley wouldn't have needed the cash.

[Bix 0]

The belief is that it was during her WWE run.

 

And, well, $25,000 a night ain't bad.

 

I'm sure it could be a misunderstanding given the existence of Ashley 2: Electric Boogaloo, though.

[BUTT 0]

A week of...hookering would probably pay more than a year of her WWE contract!

[Atticus Chaos 0]

Getting money from whoring? After you have $250,000?

 

She's finished if she did this during her time in WWE. Before, maybe they could have forgiven it, but throughout her tenure?

[Thanks for the Fish 0]

I've always figured this to be a mistake. I can't believe so many here figured Ashley was whoring around. She's likely to get a lot more money if the publication used her photo and linked the wrestling Ashley into the story.

Why wouldn't it be her? The FBI is generally the most efficient and accurate law enforcement agency on the planet. While it's possible they could've made a mistake, if they said it's WWE Ashley, odds are it is indeed her.

 

$250,000 sounds like a hell of a lot of money. But keep in mind that the WWE employees pretty much pay all their own expenses. Gotta pay for a hotel room every night. Gotta pay for a rental car every day. Gotta pay a LOT for your own medical insurance. Gotta be peer pressured into going out eating and drinking with your fellow employees after the show. Gotta get raped on income tax because you're in the highest bracket and officially listed as self-employed. Whatever a wrestler's paycheck is, consider their actual take-home money to be half that.

 

Furthermore, some people are just greedy, and will always grab for an extra dollar. Why did the Enron folks lie and steal when they were already millionares?

[Enigma 0]

The FBI never said it was her specifically.

 

It was Rolling Stone who got the list, and said the "Ashley Massaro" listed was WWE's Ashley.

It is quite likely that the FBI would just use the name Ashley Massaro, and the Rolling Stones author jumped to a conclusion. Two things jump out at me.

 

1. Wrestling fans are fairly obsessive. Why didn't we hear about this before?

 

2. Wrestling is a touring gig. It would be very difficult for Ashley to carry a dual career as female wrestler and escort.
