Armchair Creative Team: Weighing the Possibilities for Raw Viewer’s Choice
This Monday's 3-hour Raw is billed as a "viewer's choice" show, with the fans determining what happens based on who and what they want to see. The extent of the viewers' actual power is likely small, but it presents an opportunity for Diva fans to tell the WWE what they want to see. Of course, Melanie and Erin have a few ideas of their own--read through them and vote for the one you'd vote for this Monday night:

Armchair Creative Team: Ideas for Maryse’s Return
With Maryse's return looming, Armchair Creative Team gets a dust-down as we ponder what the future could hold for the former Divas Champion. As one of the most anticipated comebacks in Diva history -- depending on who you ask -- will Maryse's comeback be a Melina or a Candice? We weigh in:
Feud with Divas Champion, Melina -- Perhaps the easiest and most probable option is for Maryse to come back and feud with the current reigning Divas Champion, Melina. This one pretty much explains its...

Armchair Creative Team: Booking SmackDown’s 10th Anniversary Special
Armchair Creative Team is back! And this time we are booking this Friday's SmackDown 10th anniversary special. Considered the 'season premiere' of SmackDown, the annual special usually features tri-branded matches and Superstars and Divas from all three brands. Last year, we had a champion vs champion match when then-Women's Champ, Beth Phoenix defeated then-Divas Champ, Michelle McCool in a singles match. If this year's main event is anything to go by, it looks like this year's 'season prem...
Armchair Creative Team: Spinning the Raw Roulette Wheel
We're backkk! Yeah, I know we just did this yesterday but we can't help ourselves. The armchair was calling us! Today we're puzzling over the possibilities for tonight's rumored Raw Roulette special. As most of you know, this is the one night where a spin of the wheel (and a predetermined stop) determines the stipulation of the matches. We'll take our best shot at booking--two matches each--a show that is known to be one of the most unpredictable events of the year.

Armchair Creative Team: Hypothetical SummerSlam Matches
The Diva Dirt armchair creative team known as Erin and Melanie strike once again, this time looking at what could have been at tonight's SummerSlam pay per view. As we all know, the Divas were bumped off this year's card despite a few possible matches being discussed.
Needless to say, we certainly won't be bothering with tonight's event, call me crazy but Randy Orton vs John Cena for the umpteenth time is about as exciting as rabies.
But let us speculate over what could have gotten us ...
Armchair Creative Team: What Next for SmackDown?
Oh, we Diva Dirt writers. Always a step ahead of WWE's own Creative Team, thinking up solutions to problems that they have yet to even acknowledge. Okay true, we don't have five hours of television to write every week so I guess we should cut them some slack, but these are the guys that thought Ashley headlining WrestleMania was entertainment, so forgive us if we're quick to offer criticism on their 'hard work'. Heard of 'armchair casting directors'? Y'know, those guys who sit behind their c...
