Raw Redux (January 3rd, 2011): A New Raw Year’s Eve (Torres, That Is)

January 5, 2011January 4, 2011 by Steven

After a few altercations in the past two weeks, Natalya finally gets to have her way with Melina in a six Diva tag match on this week’s edition of Raw. Will Natalya get the last laugh or will the slap happy Melina take it to the champ once again? Watch below as Nattie, Eve and Brie Bella take on the team of Melina, Maryse and Alicia Fox:

The Divas segment starts off with a replay of the tension between the champ and the #1 contender, which segues nicely into the entrance of Melina’s team. After a quick commercial break, we come back to Nattie’s team in the ring. I can only speak for myself, but I was shocked and confused to see Brie Bella joining Nattie and Eve in this match. With their current storyline with Daniel Bryan, I would have thought there would have been some progression there and Gail Kim would be taking the #3 spot in this match. In any case, the official signals for the bell and Maryse and Brie kick things off for their respective teams.

May We Suggest: New Year’s Resolutions for the Women of Wrestling

January 2, 2011 by Erin

With the start of a new year comes the inevitable promises one makes to one’s self. They range from dieting or learning a new language to cutting out vices or staying optimistic. While we at Diva Dirt fully encourage this practice, we feel that a lot of those fall a bit short; to be blunt, they’re a bit generic. So, to spice things up a bit, we’ve put our heads together and come up with a few interesting, life-improving new year’s resolutions for the women of wrestling. This is all in good fun, so we suggest that you don’t try these at home (i.e., take them too seriously). That is, of course, unless you’re the ones to which we’re suggesting them. If that’s the case, we say try away!

Alicia Fox: “I will rethink my hair coloring choices.”

Angelina Love: “I will cease my monopoly over the TNA title belts purely on the grounds that a regular belt will hold up my pants just as well.”

The Bella Twins: “We will find our own identities.”

Beth Phoenix: “I will get the word “glamazon” into Webster’s dictionary.”

Chelsea: “I will perfect my English accent.”

Cookie: “I will, for my next trick, spoof Danielle Staub.”

Daffney: “I will, in an effort to reignite TNA’s interest in me, give David Flair a call.”

Eve Torres: “I will stop “crunking”.”

Gail Kim: “I will cut a promo. This isn’t “I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings” and I am not a mute.”
