Giovanni gained a job in WWE after finishing third during the $250,000 RAW Diva Search. Joy Giovanni debuted on SmackDown! as the show's "Massage Therapist." Many of her on-screen appearances in the company were with WWE wrestler Big Show, becoming part of his feud with JBL. She was written into feud with former SmackDown! diva Amy Weber, JBL's image consultant. This feud included a storyline where she was kidnapped and discovered bound and gagged in JBL's limo trunk, as well as a backstage catfight between Amy and herself. She also competed in the WWE 2005 Rookie Diva of the year contest at WWE No Way Out 2005. It consisted of several competitions including a bikini contest in which Joy pulled her bikini bottoms down to reveal a thong, thus winning her the competition.

Diva, now RAW Diva, Torrie Wilson). She was released by WWE on July 6, 2005.
