Victoria makes her long-awaited Royal Rumble appearance

by

WWE legend Victoria finally makes her appearance in the Royal Rumble match. She entered this year’s match at the number 10 spot and if only there was a live crowd to enjoy this moment.

Victoria is a former two-time WWE Women’s Champion and is a pure veteran in the industry. After WWE she went to TNA where she became a five-time Knockouts Champion and held the Knockouts Tag Team Championship with Brooke Tessmacher. She wrestled her last match in 2019 and retired from in-ring competition after nearly 20 years in the business.

Victoria has always been a fan favorite and has been one that people have wanted to see in a Rumble since the first women’s match in 2018. In that original women’s Royal Rumble match, many legends and Hall of Famers returned to fill the 30 spots. Victoria not being one of them certainly rubbed fans the wrong way.

By entering in at the number 10 spot, she stormed the ring and took down many of the stars of today that were currently dominating the match. These included Bayley, Naomi, and Ruby Riott. She was eventually eliminated by Shayna Baszler.

This tweet below shows what Victoria feels about finally having her moment. All smiles.

Victoria joined some other surprising entries. Jillian Hall, Torrie Wilson, and Alicia Fox were others to join her in returning to the ring. Fox wins and then loses the 24/7 Championship during the match. NXT entries included Shotzi Blackheart, Toni Storm, Santana Garrett, Rhea Ripley, Dakota Kai, and Ember Moon.

Lana pulled from TLC match and Mandy Rose returned on RAW

by

The last pay-per-view of the year, TLC, is this Sunday and for the red brand, they had their go-home episode of RAW tonight.

The match for that event from the RAW roster is for the Women’s Tag Team Championships between the champions, Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler vs. Asuka & Lana. At least that was the original plan heading into tonight’s RAW. Lana has now been pulled from the match due to “injury.”

In a storyline injury, Lana was taken out by who would have been her opponents, Jax & Baszler. This happened after Lana picked up the upset victory over Jax in a one-on-one match. Both Baszler and Asuka were not at ringside during the match. Once the bell rang in Lana’s favor, Asuka was attacked backstage by Baszler. Baszler then came out to the ring and between her and Jax, they sent Lana to the local medical facility.

Lana suffered an attack that targeted both her arm and her leg. Asuka was able to come out and fight off the tag champs, however, the damage was already done. It was announced shortly thereafter that Lana will no longer be able to compete on Sunday. A replacement for her has not been announced at the time of this writing.

Baszler and Jax were not done for the evening. Baszler was set to take on Dana Brooke in a singles match later on in the night. The match ended in a disqualification as Jax blatantly got involved by pushing Brooke off of the turnbuckle. The duo had plans to perhaps do to Brooke what they had done to Lana earlier.

They didn’t get very far as Brooke’s tag team partner, Mandy Rose, made her return from injury. Rose rushed to the ring with a kendo stick in hand to ward off the tag team champions. It worked well until Baszler grabbed ahold of the kendo stick and was about to use it on Rose.

Asuka then made the save and between her and Rose, they fought off Jax & Baszler. The segment ended with Asuka and Rose helping up Brooke as the tag champs headed up the ramp.

Diva Dirt will provide any updates on who will end up being Asuka’s partner at TLC if announced prior to the event.

Sasha Banks to defend her title against Carmella at TLC

by

The SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks has challenged Carmella for a match at the upcoming TLC pay-per-view. In a backstage interview where the women were separated during a “War of Words,” things got heated.

For weeks, Carmella has been attacking Banks from behind and saying how easy it has been to take down the champ. Last week she thought she was “calling the shots” and “giving the orders” until Banks showed up and locked her in the Bank Statement backstage. This resulted in the “separate locations” of the two women we saw this week.

Michael Cole provided the interview from the announce desk and wanted to start the interview with Carmella. Banks feels that Carmella has done enough running her mouth so The Boss wanted to speak first. Carmella mocked her by saying that she is going to say that she is “The Boss,” “The Blueprint,” and “The Standard.” Banks agreed and said she is also the SmackDown Women’s Champion.

Cole brought up that these two women go back many years as they trained at the same time in the WWE Performance Center and were in NXT at the same time. Banks says she can give Carmella her props because she is a former SmackDown Women’s Champion and the first woman to win a Money in the Bank Ladder match.

Carmella corrects Banks and says she won the first TWO Money in the Bank Ladder matches. Banks doubles down by saying that Carmella always needed someone to help her win. First the man with no chin (James Ellsworth) and then R-Truth. Mella says that she can’t help that men are obsessed with her. Banks says that there is a reason the two of them have never gone one-on-one and that is because she is out of Carmella’s league.

Carmella fires back by saying that WWE was a dream for Banks. Banks had to work so hard to get to where she is to be the very best but that makes her jealous. Jealous that Carmella just walked right in and skyrocketed to the top. She throws it in Sasha’s face that she held onto the SmackDown Women’s Title longer than all of Sasha’s title reigns combined.

Carmella says she is going to take the title and Banks challenges her saying that she has never been in the ring with a “badder bitch” than her.

This is the second woman’s match that has been announced for the upcoming TLC event. The first was announced earlier today which will see the Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler defend their titles against RAW Women’s Champion Asuka and Lana. At the time of this writing, neither women’s match has any TLC stipulations added to them. There are still two weeks to build that in.
