SmackDown Watch: January 30, 2009
Hurrah! Looks like the Divas weren't entirely left off last night's SmackDown broadcast! Returning to SmackDown after being attacked by Stone Cold Michelle McCool three weeks ago, Eve found herself back in her role of backstage interviewer. However, things got interesting when Stone Cold Michelle McCool turned up to confront the Diva:
EVE AND MICHELLE BACKSTAGE
I was actually shocked to see Eve slap Michelle. But this whole segment was ruined when: A) After the slap, Eve didn't just go...
What If?
You guys ever wonder what could have been in WWE? Ever think that a few less 'future endeavors' would have made a difference in today's division? Ever think of how things would be without the Diva Search? No? Well, don't worry cause I've done the thinking for you. Here's a couple of circumstances that woulda, coulda or shoulda created an alternate reality in Diva World.
WHAT IF: Beth hadn't had her jaw shattered by Victoria?
Remember Beth Phoenix's first appearance on WWE television? She w...
Eve Set to Debut In the Ring, But Does She Deserve It?
Recently Smackdown Diva Eve has begun to wrestle at WWE house shows and is set to make an in-ring debut on Smackdown next week (see Smackdown spoilers for more details), wether or not she deserves to have more of an in-ring role is up for debate, personally I feel she deserves it. Eve has wrestled against Natalya, Beth Phoenix and Maryse at house shows; she has also teamed up with Candice, Michelle McCool and the Bella Twins. It seems the WWE wants to prepare her for the ring and test out her...
Trish Wants to Appear at WrestleMania
Now is the time of the year, with countless feuds gearing up, that everyone's speculating on what matches could be taking place at WrestleMania. Melina vs. Beth? Maryse vs. Gail? (We wish!) Well, if Trish Stratus had her way, she'd be filling that spot. In a recent interview, Trish discussed her recent Raw appearance and whether or not she'd like to get back in the ring once again:
"I would definitely like the chance to finish off what I started with Beth in a one-on-one scenario," Stratus ...
Katie Lea’s Got Passion
Katie Lea's new photoshoot "Purple Passion" isn't exactly typical fare from her - sure, there's still the intense eyes and seriousness, but she's showing more diversity, mixing in a few different poses. She'll never be one to pose all smiley or do the "duck lips", and for that I'm thankful. I'm not big on the outfit - purple's not one of my favorite colors, and the cut of the top is a bit unflattering. The bottom half though, with the black pants and thigh-high boots, look excellent in her c...
The Dawn of a New Era
Following her WWE Women's Championship victory at the Royal Rumble over Beth Phoenix, Melina was interviewed about coming around full-circle following an injury to becoming a champion. Before the interview was over, Melina said this about the new age of women's wrestling:
And what I also wanted to say is Trish wrote a blog about an end of an era. And it's true; it was the end of an era when Victoria retired. But I'm hoping that we can create a new era of women's championship reigns. And who...
TNA Takes Another Shot at the Divas.. Through Taylor
I know we don't post enough about the TNA Knockouts, so I thought I'd fill the gap and post about them. On the January 15th, 2009 edition of TNA iMPACT! Taylor Wilde took another shot at the divas, in a promo-segment. I know this is somewhat old news, but for those who didn’t see it, Taylor came out with Roxxi and announced that the Sarah Palin angle was set up to punk the Beautiful People. While she is talking to the Beautiful People she suddenly breaks character and compares them to...
The Draft Needs to Happen…Now
Week after week, I find myself watching WWE and continuously getting let down with the state of our Divas. I think we've got a great mix of athletic, beautiful girls, but clearly the WWE and their Creative Team don't know what to do. With all the talk of who might be going where in the upcoming draft, I thought I'd give my opinion of why the Draft needs to happen sooner than later. I know it's probably a little early to start making predictions since the Draft doesn't happen till after Wrest...

WWE Fixes Your Double Vision
Good Lord, the WWE is actually treating the Bellas as separate entities! Nikki Bella has her own new photoshoot, called "Pink Perfection", that is pretty simple. She shows that she's her own person and has her own unique traits, but it still leaves much to be desired. For those that find Nikki and her sister Brie "boring" (and there's plenty of you), this shouldn't do much to change your mind. Now not every Diva needs to be Natalya with her brazen poses, but when you're already at odds with ...
