As you all know by now, I had seats for last night’s tapings at Madison Square Garden.

We’ve taken possible candidates (former Womens Champions and Divas Champions) and calculated their … Read more

Welcome to a very special edition of the Raw Redux, aptly titled “Raw Doesn’t Deserve a Redux.” And it doesn’t. Following the Divas being left off the Backlash card in favour of Santino and his alter ego, Santina, it was much of the same on last night’s Raw. How we’ve gotten to the point where … Read more
Blind yet? Well, I certainly got your attention with a well-selected photo, didn’t I? As you can plainly see, though there were no Diva matches on the card, Backlash still delivered some Diva action. Questionably pointless action, but action nonetheless. Seeing as how this probably doesn’t merit an entire Redux, we’ll provide you with the … Read more

Welcome to Diva Dirt’s new feature – The Weekly Roundup, a look at the week in television! From Raw, SmackDown, ECW and TNA too, we look back at the week’s highs and lows as well as giving you the opportunity to catch up on what you’ve missed!
APRIL 19TH – APRIL 25TH, 2009
This week has been huge for the Divas and Knockouts, possibly the most action packed week of wrestling so far in 2009! Over the past week, we have seen all three of the major women’s titles on the line; the Women’s Championship, the Divas Championship and the Knockout Championship were all defended.
Best Bet: My standout of the week was the Women’s Championship match from Raw, as Melina successfully defended the title against rival, Beth Phoenix before moving over to SmackDown.
Close Call: Angelina Love‘s Knockout Championship victory at Lockdown was definitely a highlight of the week, as she finally captured the belt, but I personally preferred the Raw match.
Low Point: This week’s low comes from ECW’s booking of their new Diva, Natalya, as she jobs not once but twice to Hornswoggle in the same week. Pitiful.
Check out all of this week’s videos after the cut:

Talk about beating a dead horse! That horrible rumor WWE started itself about former Diva Stacy Keibler is being initiated again by WWE insiders.

Former Divas Champion, Michelle McCool took to her blog last night and indirectly responded to Trish Stratus‘ claims earlier this week, that there are far too many women on the WWE roster.
