Bio Model Mackenzie Ryan transforms into a mermaid the minute she hits the water. “I love anything that has to do with water—boating, fishing, jet skiing, laying on the beach,” says our full-lipped Cybergirl of the Week for January 5, 2004. Why would a beautiful, blue-eyed New Yorker like her crave tranquility as much as she does? The blonde-haired knockout knocks out the competition in the wrestling ring under the name, Ashley Massaro. After winning the WWE Diva Search in 2005, our CGOW fought in Playboy’s Bunnymania Lumberjill match and in WWE’s WrestleMania Women’s Championship fight. If the winner of the first-ever Bra & Panties Gauntlet wasn’t intimating enough, the busty wrestler’s signature wresting move, Starstuck, will surely do them in. Thankfully for her opponents, Mackenzie has retired from wrestling, but that doesn’t mean Playboy and wrestling fans won’t be seeing her. The tattooed model with the punk-rock style, has plans to start her own makeup line and will continue to model—hopefully with Playboy.
