SmackDown Redux (March 12th, 2010): The Blonde and the Brawny
It's okay to look -- SmackDown has returned to form! Hurrah! After an iffy week with not much going on last week, this week's show was infinitely better with the blonde babyfaces proving the Divas moniker to be true -- they were smart, they were sexy and oh yes, they were powerful! You'd expect little else from the Glamazon Beth Phoenix... but Tiffany? Tiffany?! I was not expecting anything out of the former ECW GM upon reading the spoilers for this week but Tiffany girl, consider my eyes op...
Exclusive: Alissa Flash on TNA Departure, Zipper Gimmick, SHIMMER Title & More
As professional wrestling's Future Legend, Melissa Anderson has wowed crowds in ChickFight, SHIMMER, NCW Femme Fatales and in other promotions worldwide. In TNA, we came to know and love her as the mysterious Raisha Saeed before catching another side of her as Alissa Flash. As Saeed, Melissa managed Awesome Kong to two Knockouts Title reigns and in just a few short months as Flash, Melissa gave us great matches with the likes of Sarita and Hamada before she disappeared from television in late ...
Raw Redux (March 8th, 2010): All About Eve
After last week's moving tribute to womankind, I was bracing myself for the worst with this week's show. Surprisingly, the WWE decided to put on a straight wrestling match rather than mold the Divas action to guest GM Criss Angel's gimmick, and for that I'm grateful. But was the match anything to write home about? Let's see:
Eve Torres, Gail Kim and Kelly Kelly make their way to the ring for a 6-Diva Tag Team match. I guess it's been a while since we've seen one of those, though I hav...
Impact Write-Up (March 8th, 2010): Congratulations Beautiful People! You Now Have Accessories
Tonight was a historic night for wrestling as round two of the Monday Night Wars kicked off and in grand fashion for both the Divas and Knockouts in my opinion. Both shows featured tag team action but on Impact we got a treat. With Awesome Kong basically done in TNA, the question has remained: "What's going to happen with the Knockouts Tag Team Championships?" We got our answer and in spectacular fashion. Missing in action Knockouts Taylor Wilde and Sarita returned to television to take on The...

Impact Write-Up (March 4th, 2010): Approved Change of Pace
This week on Impact we were treated to a slight change of pace. Instead of more Tara/Daffney build-up we got a video package, backstage fight, and in-ring segment all featuring the Beautiful People and Miss Angelina Love. Ever since Angelina made her return to TNA, the Beautiful People have gone after full force and this week was no different. The backstage beatdown was pretty intense but what happened in the ring was even better. Lets get down to business.
Skip to 4:46
The video packa...
Raw Redux (March 1st, 2010): Welcome to Women’s History Month, Folks
Well, now that we've gotten past that pesky Divas Championship Tournament, it's time to set the division back several years and have a good old fashioned pajama pillow fight. Of course, this is in keeping with this week's guest GMs, Cheech and Chong, not that their names are synonymous with pajamas or pillow fights. I'm just guessing the Divas sitting in a circle and passing around a bong wouldn't have been in keeping with their PG rating. But of course, the Divas looking all jailbait-y whil...

SmackDown Redux (February 26th, 2010): A Modern Day Diva Screwjob
Earlier this week, WWE announced that the victim of the 'original screwjob', Wendi Richter would be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in April. Coincidence, then, that in the same week another Diva is the victim of a modern day screwjob. That Diva is Mickie James, a who woman who seemingly had the odds stacked against her this week on SmackDown. See the drama unfold below:
The odds didn't look good last week, when Vickie Guerrero announced that Mickie would defend her Women's Champio...
Michelle McCool Regains Women’s Championship
As seen moments ago on SmackDown, Michelle McCool has regained the WWE Women's Championship and is now a two-time holder of the belt.
McCool's win marks the first time in nearly 10 years that the Women's Championship has changed hands on a taped show. The last time this happened was also on an episode of SmackDown when Ivory beat then-champion Lita as well as Jacqueline and Trish Stratus in a fatal four way match on November 2nd, 2000. That show was taped two days prior on October 31st.
