While they didn't appear to like each other very much on camera, the word is that both Carmella and Christy were good friends behind the scenes for the Raw Diva Search. This leads people to believe that the Diva's were just faking tension between them and leading some to believe that the entire Diva search was scripted to a certain extent.
The following is posted on the Raw Diva Search webpage which would release the WWE of any charges of fraud against them:
"WWE, IN ITS SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE DISCRETION, RESERVES THE RIGHT TO CHANGE THE RULES, METHOD AND MANNER OF FAN VOTING AND WINNER SELECTION AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, OR FOR NO REASON AT ALL."
While this is customary for most reality shows, because it relieves the WWE of any lawsuits that contestants may bring saying they were taken off the show for other reasons than the fan's voting. It had been known internally by some that Christy was favored to win because of the previous weeks voting and many times the girls went out there prepared to be voted out because of this knowledge. Other fans accused the WWE of fraud because it seemed as though the voting was setup to favor Carmella because it seemed as though phone lines allowed for multiple votes for her, but only single votes for the other Divas.
The WWE claims however that it was the heel fan vote that keep Carmella around so long and that the other Divas (outside of Christy) were so indistinguishable from one another that they split the votes up among themselves.
