SmackDown Redux (May 27th, 2011): AJ Debuts In The Most Lugubrious Way

Earlier this week, SmackDown Diva Layla made an announcement that she was going to have surgery to repair two injuries; a torn MCL and a torn ACL. That announcement just happened to coincide with the debut of a new Diva at Tuesday’s tapings, former Queen of FCW and third place NXTS3 rookie, AJ. A lot of people have been awaiting the arrival of the spunky life-long pro wrestling fan and it’s unfortunate that her debut has to happen right as Layla goes out from an injury. Whether AJ was brought up to take Layla’s place, I don’t know. But what I do know is that AJ’s debut was a rather dismal one. She teamed up with NXT winner and BFF, Kaitlyn, to take on the team of Alicia Fox and Tamina. Birthday girl, Natalya, was at ringside with the faces. Lets take a look at what went down.

Tonight we begin things with Alicia and Tamina in the ring.

Random Thought: I can only assume that Tamina and her cave-woman attire are heels by default now due to the severe lack of them on the blue brand, but who knows? Maybe Rosa won the coin toss this week and didn’t have to play the heel?

Mr. Glamazon’s Hitting the Ropes: Glam Slam Mailbag #6 + 2 Glam Slam Reader Profiles

Hello everybody!  I hope you all got a chance to watch episode #1 of “Jessie Kaye: Road to the Ring”.  I’m really proud of the web series.  It’s a fun challenge to bring Jessie’s story to light.  She’s a great kid.  In general the show is just reason this is an exciting time at Diva Dirt – stay tuned for an even bigger and better rest of 2011!

Time to clean out my inbox and piece together my “Hitting the Ropes” Glam Slam mailbag!  Once again, thanks to all of you who submitted questions!

Before I jump into your questions I’d like to pay a quick tribute to the “Macho Man” Randy Savage.  Like many I was saddened to hear about his recent passing.  It is impossible for me to quantify how much he and Miss Elizabeth meant to me as I was growing up.  The WWF was a huge part of my life and Macho Man gave me many wonderful memories.  The night the “Madness met the Mania” in Hershey, PA is my all-time favorite wrestling match.  So, thanks Randy.  Now you can walk down that aisle again with Miss Elizabeth, at least in my heart.

Blog: Mia Yim Checks In from Japan, Comments on Upcoming Match with Manami Toyota

Wrestler and Diva Dirt contributor, Mia Yim is currently in Japan where she is set to debut for the REINA promotion. Mia will be sending us exclusive blogs and pictures from her trip. Check back for regular updates!

Hello all,

The past few days here in Japan has been pretty relaxing. I was just told I will be wrestling in a tag match. May 28th, it will be me and Aki Kanbayashi vs. Hailey Hatred and Manami Toyota. I am really excited for this match as I will finally be in the ring with one of my closest friends (Hailey) and a legend, in my opinion, in the world (Manami) It will be a great honor and a tough fight for us.

I took a break from training on Sunday and Monday to go and explore Japan. Sunday, Roxie Cotton and I went to Harajuku. Harajuku is one of the fashion capitals in Japan as it still holds unique fashions from Decora to Lolita styles. I wish these fashions would be popular in America. We spent about a few hours in Harajuku, although it is only about half a mile strip of just side shops and foods. We went through most of the stores, looking at all Harajuku has to offer. It was amazing to see the different selections. The snacks was the best part. The Japanese really indulge in their sweets. The sweets are in very small portions but it is soooo delicious in every bite. After a while, it began to rain and we just headed back home to relax for the rest of the day.

Kharma Being Taken Off TV?

Say what?! Kharma is being taken off TV for ‘over nine months’, reports the Wrestling Observer. Last night’s angle on Raw, which saw the monster Diva fall to her knees in tears surrounded by the Raw Divas, is said to have been the blow-off to her storyline for now. What the F…?

Raw Redux (May 23rd, 2011): I Remember When, I Remember When Kharma Lost Her Mind

After a great showing by Kelly Kelly and The Bella Twins at Over The Limit on Sunday, all the Raw Divas come together for a 8-Diva Tag Match on this week’s Monday Night Raw. Will Kharma be brave enough to make an appearance when there’s 8 Divas in the ring or will she take the night. Watch below as Kelly Kelly, Eve, Gail Kim and Beth Phoenix take on The Bellas, Maryse and Melina:

Out first to the ring is the heel team. I’m not sure how I’m feeling about The Bella Twins’ new cape accessories, but kudos to them for trying something new. However, Melina looked great in her new black on black gear. It looks it could double as an actual outfit outside of the ring. I wonder if this is a permanent change of styles or if she just lost her luggage. Either way, I’m loving it!
