BeliEVErs, as we enter into the Holiday season, let’s be sure not to forget those less fortunate than ourselves. Today I donated to the “Education for Rural Amazon Communities” fundraiser, and I encourage you to do the same! Education and conservation go hand in hand, and by improving education opportunities for rural communities, we can provide the chance for the Amazonian people to develop alternatives for their own sustainable future, and the protection of their land. Education is something that is so important, and I think it’s sometimes taken for granted. I’ve been blessed with an incredible education, and here in the US the resources are made available to us, but for others in rural communities the same cannot be said. My brother Phil, is out in the Amazon at this very moment, working in these communities and is leading this fundraiser with the goal of raising money to go directly into providing environmental education supplies for the local Amazonian schools.

As an added incentive, I’m going to send a signed 8 x 10 picture (see picture), to anyone who donates over $20 to this wonderful cause between now and November 22nd. (For more information on how to receive your signed photo, see below)

Visit http://www.globalgiving.org/projects/education-for-rural-amazon-communities/ and thank you in advance for supporting this worthy cause!

Here are some photo’s of my brother, and the team of environmentalists he’s working with out in the Amazon. To stay up to date with Phil and the work he’s doing, be sure to follow him on Twitter @Phil_Torres, and check out his blog www.TheRevScience.com.

To receive your signed 8×10 photograph:
Please donate a minimum of $20, and send a screen shot of the donation receipt page or scanned image of your check, along with your mailing address, to eve@evetorres.com. Please include the subject “AMAZON” in your email.

Keep BeliEVEing!

I have heard from a lot of people alerting me that ‘Eve stole your standing moonsault’. Here is my perspective…Eve is a shady thief…I’m totally kidding. Eve is a wonderful person, a good friend, and one of the people I miss the most from WWE. But seriously, hundreds of wrestlers have come and gone through the major wrestling organizations. If every move they used became off limits, there would be nothing left to do. The way I learned it, there is a certain code of honor where if you ‘borrow’ someone’s move, you in some way change it and make it your own, which Eve did.

Academy and actually dates one of the Gracie's. The Gracie family are generally
considered the founding family of MMA.

WWE Divas Champion!

4/12/2010 - London, England

I am still on a high! This feeling is indescribable. Who would have thought, 3 years ago when I was just interviewing for the WWE Diva Search, that I would hold the WWE Divas Championship in my hands tonight. In some eyes, I may still be considered a rookie to the Divas division, but I have had my eye on the title since I was interviewing champions backstage. Tonight, I realized how far believing in yourself, working hard, training hard, and most importantly, acting with respect and integrity can take you in life. I would not be able to call myself Divas Champion if I hadn’t taken the opportunity to learn from the best. When you respect your teammates, coworkers, teachers, or superiors, which in my case, happens to be other WWE Superstars, and even my opponents, they will respect you... and want to help you succeed. No one gets anywhere in life on their own, and without the guidance of those with more experience than you. But beyond the help and advice of others, I also respected and believed in myself. I knew in my heart that if I worked and trained hard enough, and continued to believe in my own potential, that this opportunity would eventually present itself. And here I stand, Divas Champion!!

And truthfully, I feel that now is only the beginning! The hard work and discipline gets turned up ten notches, because now that I have won the title, I have to keep it! I have to defend it, and bring honor and pride to the WWE Divas Championship every time I do. So the training continues, and the matches and opponents will continue to get harder, but I am definitely up for the challenge. I have a feeling that Maryse may be a little upset ;-) so I am sure the heat will be turned up with every encounter.

Thank you WWE Universe for being a BeliEVEr!

‘BeliEVErs’ aren’t just those who believed in me, ‘believers’ are those who trust that they too can achieve any and everything by working hard, being kind and respectful to others, and truly believing in their dreams.

My thoughts on the Diva Trade

Hello BeliEVErs!

It's official... as of this Monday night, I am now a Raw Diva! I would be lying if I said that I wasn't COMPLETELY shocked when I found out I was being traded to Monday Night Raw. I would also be lying if I said there wasn't a little part of me that was sad to be leaving my SmackDown friends, Cryme Tyme, Maria, and the rest of the "Blue Team". I even enjoyed my exchanges with Layla's feisty little self. Also, on SmackDown, I was lucky to be able to compete against two of the strongest women wrestlers in the WWE: Michelle McCool, and Natalya. Competing against women like them taught me what being an in-ring competitor is, and forced me to bring my A game at all times.

Now, I am ready to take what I learned from SmackDown to my new home on Monday nights! I am excited for the new challenges that await, and hopefully, the fun times as well! Hanging out with Snoop Dogg (and Hornswoggle) on my first night on Raw was a fun way to get broken in to my new home ;-) As I love competing in the ring more and more, I can only hope that there will be more opportunities, and Diva's Championship title shots that await in the future. I am definitely proud to be an addition to the Raw women's division.

As always, thanks for your support!!

Eve
