  • Divas Championship Cut For Time

    The Divas Championship match between Natalya and a Diva of Vickie Guerrero‘s choosing was cut from last night’s Night of Champions pay per view, due to time constraints it has been revealed. WWE didn’t want to load the card to the brim because they didn’t want to run out of [...]

    Mickie James may be in for a tough couple of nights if Joey Styles is correct! In a WWE.com exclusive interview last night after Mickie’s big win over Katie Lea, Joey told the Women’s Champion that “Beth Phoenix would be waiting for her tomorrow night.” Of course, that means tonight [...]

    It looks like WWE is seeing fit to pull the old switcheroo, though unlike the cool kind in movies like Fight Club (which I was referencing in the title, if you are insane and haven’t seen it), this kind of twist is one we didn’t want to see, but kind [...]

    Layla, Noooooooooooo!

    I don’t know what has left me more aghast, the shocking end of this week’s Doctor Who or the Layla news I’ve just read. The latest rumour making rounds is that Layla was moved to Raw in anticipation of her posing for Playboy next year. *Dramatic pause* Allow me to [...]

    This week on SmackDown: A blockbuster six Diva tag team match saw Cherry, Kelly Kelly and Michelle McCool face off against Maryse, Natalya and Victoria.

    Welcome to the ninth edition of Screen Sirens!

  • Melina’s Real Injury Sidelined for Vince’s Fake Injury

    Uncategorized June 26, 2008 8:40 pm 14 comments

    According to reports, the reason why WWE.com hasn’t kept us updated on the status of Melina‘s very real injury thus far, is because they don’t want to detract from Vince McMahon’s very fake injury. Hmm, I would like to say I’m shocked but I’m really, really not. This is exactly [...]

    It has emerged today, that WWE Creative hadn’t originally planned to move any Divas during the Draft. According to reports, they felt that there wasn’t anyone that absolutely had to move. Obviously, they changed their minds with Layla and Maria being drafted yesterday. No one that absolutely had to move?! [...]

    Wonders will never cease! Lena Yada is almost nonexistant on TV, yet she continually gets new photoshoots on WWE.com. Let’s face it – she’s the new Maryse! This photoshoot is inexplicably titled “Playful”. I’m not getting a playful vibe from this one – maybe from a Mickie shoot, but not [...]

    After four years on Raw, Maria was moved to SmackDown earlier today in the Supplemental Draft but girlfriend is not happy.

    Michelle McCool‘s well known for her spiritual outlook – hence the “Stairway to Heaven” photoshoot title/play on words. But does she look heavenly as they say? It’s kind of a unique look, what with the bright, cobalt blue pants and vest combo. I’m digging it, though. The blue of the [...]
