WrestleMania Fantasy Face-Off: Victoria vs Natalya

What If?: Angelina Love, Knockouts’ Title and SHIMMER

 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: Angel Williams hadn’t been released from WWE? 
 
For those who didn’t know, Angelina Love AKA Angel Williams was once contracted to WWE. She spent a while in Deep South Wrestling, feuding with the likes of Taylor Wilde, Kristal Marshall, Michelle McCool and Krissy Vaine. While in developmental, several opportunities for a call up passed her by, including JBL’s image consultant (given to Jillian) and Orlando Jordan’s valet. When WWE dropped DSW as a farm territory, Angel was shipped to OVW where she defeated Serena Deeb in her first match. She was released the next day. 
 
I bet WWE is kicking themselves now. Angel was quickly scooped up by TNA when they started the Knockouts division and has been on a roll ever since. Changing her name to Angelina Love, she joined forces with fellow Knockout Velvet Sky to form Velvet Love Entertainment (soon changed to The Beautiful People, now known as Mi Pi Sexy) to become of the most prominent wrestlers in TNA. 
 
Let’s face it, if Angelina had been called up to WWE she would have a fraction of the success she has in TNA. In WWE she would be lost among the the endless flood of blondes. I could see her jobbing out constanly  (a la Jillian), before finally getting released and picked up by TNA anyway. WWE just helped her cut out the middle man.

Jacqueline’s 12 Year Career Comes to End

Sad news on the Knockout front: TNA is fading Jacqueline away from an onscreen role, ending her 12 year career in the major leagues of wrestling.

Since 1997, Jacqueline has managed to stay in the forefront of America’s biggest promotions – from WCW to WWE to TNA. Her shocking longevity only struck me a few days ago, admist speculation as to why she wasn’t present at the Destination X pay per view last Sunday. It’s true to say that Jacqueline’s run is unprecedented considering the average length of a female wrestler’s career.

Not to panic though! Jacqueline hasn’t been fired. As TNA moves her away from television, she will take up the role of agent for the Knockouts division, keeping her in the fold of the company and women’s wrestling for years to come hopefully.

Jacqueline is a former two time Women’s Champion as well as Cruiserweight Champion. Her first Women’s Championship reign ushered in the Women’s Championship that we know today, currently held by Melina.

May I take this time to congratulate Jackie on her amazing career, she truly deserves a round of applause.

In a tribute to her career, we’ll be counting down Jacqueline’s top five matches as voted for by you. Details after the cut.

We’re All Mad Here

Is Beth.. Smiling?

Beth Phoenix is showing more enthusiasm than we may have ever seen out of her in her new photoshoot, “Brilliant Blonde”.
