Aloisia comments on ‘erotic photos’ story
Aloisia, the 6-foot-9 rookie diva who was pulled from NXT Season 3 before the first episode even aired, posted an open letter to fans on her website Tuesday addressing the pwinsider.com report that said that WWE had removed her from the show because company officials discovered ‘erotic photos’ of her online.
Aloisia (real name Lindsay Hayward), 23, said she has no idea whether the photos – which were shot five years ago – had anything to do with her dismissal from NXT.
"That’s something you’d have to ask them," she wrote. "Perhaps it was a factor in their decision, but I honestly don’t know their entire thought process, as they’ve communicated very little to me about this. From what I’ve been reading on various blogs, it seems that they may have had a political motivation to get me off the show, but again, you’d have to ask them."
Aloisia noted that she is not nude in any of the photos and she even provided a link to them.
"The pictures are already out there, so there’s no point in trying to hide them," she wrote. "I find them embarrassing, not because they’re particularly ‘erotic,’ but because I was overweight and out of shape when they were taken five years ago and because they’re amateurishly shot."
She went on to say that when she first received an offer from WWE, she was asked to fill out a talent information form, and one of the questions was, "Have you ever posed nude?"
"I answered 'no' to this question, because that’s the truth," she wrote. "If they had asked me if I ever posed suggestively, I would of course have answered 'yes,' but there’s a big difference between suggestive and nude."

The photos posted of Aloisia are barely even cheesy compared to WWE Divas Maryse or others in Playboy or on the net nude..she is a real and powerful wrestler..WWE needs to find the right situation or show for her..that's all.

I don't think that "erotic photos" would be the true reason. I would bet that the other ladies had no idea what to do if they had to face her in the ring.

Well, I have to say that Aloisa make a fair and valid point.
Personally, I never heard or even seen her before this 'story' broke, but I find it very hypocritical of WWE if there is any shred of truth to this.
While I understnad they are 'trying' to promote a PG-13 product today, this is in direct conflict of the their 90's Attitude era. I believe at one point half the Diva roster posed in Playboy, and lets not forget the adulterous storylines with (can't believe I'm saying this), Vicky G. Kelly-Kelly played a stripper, the wierd angle with Beth Phoenix and Salvatore. There's also plenty of questionable photos out their with Mickie James, Gail Kim, and again more than 1/2 the female roster.
If Alosia posed 5 years ago in a non-nude fashion, then the only people actually perpetuating this story has to be the WWE itself.
This just makes no sense to me...and sorry Alosia...from what I've seen of your regular photos, I'm not quite sue what the demand is for seeing her 'erotic' ones....I'd pass.

MARYSE is still Ted Dibiase Jr.'s arm candy, right? She had some risque photos from her past and she's still under contract!

I have seen the photos in question. I found the Zapruder film less disturbing.

But even Maryse has nude photos on the net. How come they havent taken her away ? But please dont take her away. She's so sexxxxxxxxxxyyyyyy.

The photos I've seen....the only "erotic" thing about them is that it suggests she's a lesbian.
And that wouldn't be something I should be shocked about to say the least....
In fact, this would probably bring in a bigger lesbian audience!
I think this is just a way to bring attention to her instead of saying "she's garbage in the ring and it's obvious we need to be careful at the drawing board over her character and ring abilities"
