SmackDown Results: 3/26/10 - Beth Phoenix Excuses Vickie Guerrero

Beth Phoenix has had her eyes set on Michelle McCool's Women's Title since arriving to SmackDown early in the fall. But a rising Mickie James took the spotlight, leaving Beth to side with McCool to take on her only threat, at the time.

Yet, with Mickie James taking time off to promote her debut country album, Beth Phoenix was certain that her time to challenge for the Women's Title had come. That was until Divas GM, Vickie Guerrero denied the Glamazon the opportunity. Instead of continuing to take a back seat, Beth Phoenix created an enemy within Vickie Guerrero, which culminated into this match between Beth and Vickie.

Much like the evil streak of Mr. McMahon, Vickie altered the match in her favor, making it into a 5-on-1 handicap match. Vickie Guerrero was joined by Women's Champion, Michelle McCool, Divas' Champion, Maryse, Layla, and Alicia Fox. Let's face it, Beth Phoenix is the most dominate "diva" in all of the WWE; heck, Beth Phoenix is the most dominating women's wrestler in all the WWE. And for Todd Grisham to comment, "She's dominate, but not that dominate," when introduced to her four other competitors, one doesn't simply know how dominate Beth can be. In addition, Beth Phoenix is a women's wrestler competing against two models, a former teacher, a dancer, and the widow of Eddie Guerrero, how hard can it be?

The match started off with Layla over confident of Phoenix's odds of winning the match, but in all honesty, Beth can tear her apart. Then during a Guerrilla Press lift, McCool started nudging the head of Beth Phoenix. You might as well be poking a bear or sticking your hand in a tank of piranhas, because Beth helicopter spinned Layla to knock down McCool. After that all hell broke loose as Beth didn't want to wait for the tags, but threw them into the ring and double clotheslined divas 2 at a time. But the numbers game was too much, and a simple kick to the face did her in for the 3-count, much like what happened to Orton on RAW. And just like McMahon, Vickie was tagged in to cover Beth for that 3-count.

And if things couldn't get any worse for Beth Phoenix, McCool suggested that Vickie execute the Frog Splash over the Glamazon. Indeed, it would have been an odd tribute to her late-husband, but the ribbiting splash was held off as Mickie James, Kelly-Kelly, Eve Torres, and Gail Kim cleared the ring. Which it has been announced on wwe.com that all 9, plus Vickie, will compete in a 10 Diva Tag Match at WrestleMania.

And the coup de grâce, Beth got some payback on Vickie Guerrero by accidently ripping off Vickie's pants. Now, I know this is not the wardrobe malfunction that men dream of when watching the Divas wrestle, but it was possibly the most hilarious thing on television. WWE is TV-PG, really? Because I believe that her grandma panties which read "Excuse Me" in bedazzled jewels just blinded the WWE Universe. Beth Phoenix, much like Melina, has crossed over from heel to fan favorite in miraculous fashion.

As for the WrestleMania match, whether it is a dark match or simply five minutes, it beats any Divas match in the past 3 years. There is no Playboy gimmicked matches, Lumber jills, or spoof Divas Battle Royal, it will be 5 on 5 in a clean match.

RAW Results: 2/15/10

RAW's Elimination Entries: Who Holds the Momentum?

Last week, Carl Edwards assigned three main-events to take place this week: Randy Orton vs. Sheamus; Kofi Kingston vs. Ted DiBiase Jr.; and John Cena vs. Triple-H. Much like last week on SmackDown, these matches pitted the entrants of the Elimination Chamber in singles competition. But who has the most momentum going for them this Sunday?

Randy Orton versus Sheamus

This Sunday Sheamus will have to defend the WWE Title inside the Elimination Chamber against five other guys. Announcers have stated that defeating John Cena for the WWE Title and winning against Randy Orton at The Royal Rumble were tests of his ability to lead the company. However, Sheamus will undergo his true test, not only as a superstar but as a champion, in a title defense where he cannot escape via count-out or disqualification.

Randy Orton, on the other hand, has been trying to regain the WWE Championship, but Legacy seems to always get in the way. Sheamus won the match again via disqualifications thanks to Cody Rhodes.

Legacy tried apologizing, but Orton struck Cody with an RKO, while Sheamus bicycle kicked DiBiase in the face. Then Orton struck the WWE Champion with another RKO.

As of this point, Orton is carrying the momentum.

Ted DiBiase Jr. versus Kofi Kingston

Ted DiBiase and Kofi Kingston have a profound opportunity to capture the World Title at an early stage in their career. The feat may seem far-fetched, but Sheamus lasted no more than 6 months before scoring the WWE Title.

Kofi was actually suppose to partake in the Elimination Chamber last year, but was ambushed by a frustrated Edge who had lost the WWE Title in an earlier chamber match. Despite his recent push back in November, the momentum has faded from Kofi Kingston.

Ted DiBiase, fighting at half speed after being kicked in the face by Sheamus, managed to pick up the victory. He evaded a high flying move from Kingston and locked in Dream Street.

DiBiase, despite being struck in the face by the champion, proves his resiliency by taking down Kofi Kingston in a clean victory.

Triple-H versus John Cena

It was been said that this was a WrestleMania worthy main event. Yes, we get that seeing as Triple-H tapped out to Cena at WM22. Then Triple-H retained his title against Cena at Night of Champions '08. And again, Triple-H defeated Cena the RAW prior to Bragging Rights. These two have faced each other so many times that the hype is gone.

John Cena is probably one of the most limited superstars on the roster when it comes to technique, but the robotic maneuvers of Triple-H are no better. Whenever Triple-H gets Irish-whipped to the ropes, he hooks his arm to fling himself over. It is one of H's weakest selling points.

My prediction on the finish was for either Michaels or Batista to interfere; yet, it was Sheamus who threw his WWE Title in the ring, and delivered a bicycle kick to Triple-H in a middle of a Pedigree set up. Cena attempted to out maneuver Sheamus, but was also knocked down. And for the exclamation point, Sheamus hoisted H is the air and executed The Celtic Cross.

The three riding the wave of momentum are Orton, DiBiase, and Sheamus. I'm actually disappointed with how these past two weeks played out. Why are these six competitors chosen to seal their fate inside an Elimination Chamber, what are their connections to one another? Where are the speeches, the animosity?

Simply stated: Three weeks was not enough to choose entries and establish a meaningful build-up. And Elimination Chamber, another themed pay-per-view (occurring for it's third year), serves only one purpose: to establish the champions heading to WrestleMania.

Mr. Ballin' Came to Play

Last week, ShoMiz became the new Unified Tag Team Champions, defeating D-X. Yet, with a no.1 contender's match taking place last week on ECW, has D-X forfeited their rematch clause?

Before their title match on the final episode of ECW, ShoMiz had to deal with The World's Strongest Tag Team. Why in the world did MVP and Mark Henry reunite? Their tag team days were dead and buried for months, but for some reason they came together to score an upset on ShoMiz.

Now that The Miz holds both the United States and Unified Tag Team Titles, MVP has found the one person to grant him what he desperately wants... a chance to relive the height of his career in 2007.

Jerry Springer Segment: A Giant Waste of Time

Need I say more? Really? Okay... WWE is Rated-PG, and Kelly-Kelly announces that not only is she pregnant, she is unsure of who the father is. List of candidates that could've dipped their pen in the company's ink: Santino Marella, Chris Masters, The Great Khali, Michael Cole, Jerry "The King" Lawler, and Hornswoggle. Then of course The Bellas reveal that Brie is actually a man. And then Eve Torres, really badly, portrays the jealous girlfriend of Chris Masters and gets into a fight with Kelly-Kelly.

This was revealed to be a set-up. Yes, we understand that wrestling is fake, but we are not stupid. It was actually intended to reveal Springer's love interest, Mae Young. Just like Ranjin Singh stated: This was a giant waste of time.

Brutally Tacky: Bret Hart Accident

The fact that Bret Hart has nothing new to say means that he has over stayed his welcome. Either have the match at WrestleMania or don't. And seeing as Mr. McMahon already declined Bret's offer to a WrestleMania match, and took back his nomination for inducting Stu Hart into this year's Hall of Fame, Bret really has nothing left to do with WWE. It was all very anti-climatic.

And when did John Cena become his best friend? John Cena wasn't even present on the historic night (Jan. 4th) when he came back. But yet he is the only one defending Bret against McMahon, and Batista apparently.

Then backstage, Bret Hart being greeted by the mid-carders. Is he suppose to be inspiring the next generation of superstars that if they reach their dreams, they can be humilated into a broken down old man?

Finally, the greatest travisty was having Bret Hart hit by a car. Who in the world reverses into a parked limo in an underground parking lot? The woman was revealed to be Mrs. Hickenbottom (Shawn's wife). Is Shawn Michaels executing McMahon's dirty work, by taking out Bret in order to get his shot against The Undertaker's Streak?

This car angle was probably a bigger lack of creativity than the Jerry Springer segment. I was looking forward to a Bret-McMahon WrestleMania bout, to bring closure to the whole thing, even if it was a street fight. But so help me, if it turns into a McMahon-Trump match and we end up watching Cena-Batista in their places...

WWE Superstars Results: 2/4/10

Wasted Potential: Carlito and Evan Bourne

The following match saw Carlito against Evan Bourne.

At the Royal Rumble, Evan drew No. 2 and fought in a stalemate against entry No. 1 Dolph Ziggler. Evan had 90 seconds before the next participant to join the fray to toss Ziggler over the rope, but instead C.M. Punk eliminated both.

As for Carlito, he was equally as impressive, lasting 4:34 enough time to back stab half the participants in the ring. And who better to toss you out than Shawn Michaels?

The match on Superstars was questionable because Carlito and Bourne have been jobbing for various superstars for most of their careers. Carlito has zero drive, while Evan is happy just having his own WWE T-Shirt.

Suggestion: Either get Carlito back together with his brother, or revive the feud he should have had, and let it lead to outspoken matches, tag team matches, mix-gender matches, any series of matches will do. Have them go on Carlito's Cabana and tear the house down. There is so much potential, and they are letting it go to waste.

RAW Diva Update: Kelly-Kelly in Limelight

The opening match pitted Kelly-Kelly and Eve Torres against Jillian Hall and Katie Lea.

Lately, WWE has been favoring their youngest diva, Kelly-Kelly, as she's appeared on WWE Superstars for several weeks besting Jillian Hall. Whether teaming with Gail Kim or Eve Torres, the focus is centered on Kelly-Kelly.

Side tracking a bit, in other RAW Divas news: Maryse mentioned to Gail Kim, her opponent for the vacant Divas' Title, of how she detests the childish feud Michelle McCool has been having with Mickie James, and she does not want their match to escalate by those means. "Let's behave like women." Was Maryse being sincere to suggest that, or does she have an ulterior motive? The jury will have to agree when I say "motive!"

Now back to this divas match: Jillian Hall didn't try to sing, and Katie Lea seems lost without Paul. Honestly, if they are not going to be used to their potential, then why bother?

Kelly-Kelly and Eve Torres picked up the wins.

SmackDown Midcard Update: What to do

The main event was The Hart Dynasty and I-C Champion Drew McIntyre versus Matt Hardy, The Great Khali, and John Morrison.

Oh, how far Matt Hardy has fallen. Matt Hardy entered the Royal Rumble, executed two moves and was immediately tossed out by Kane. The past couple of weeks, he's had to forge a team with the Great Khali. Either WWE really wants nothing to do with another Hardy, or they have officially run out of things for him to do.

As for John Morrison and Drew McIntyre, the feud ended in favor of Drew McIntyre last week during a no-DQ I-C Title Match. The reason WWE paired Morrison against McIntyre in this six-man tag match is for familiarity purposes. What WWE needs is another contender for the I-C title, to keep things fresh.

Hart Dynasty needs to continue dominating a slew of singles matches, seeing as how they can't make a career out of defeating Cryme Tyme. Just recently, H.D. has been feuding with Khali and Hardy, which explains why they are in the match.

As for the match, Matt Hardy struck D.H. Smith with the Twist of Fate and, instead of going for the pin, Matt tagged in Khali. The Punjabi Playboy picked Smith up and executed the Punjabi Plunge for the win.

With the final scene of Matt and John waving their arms in the air, in a crazy attempt to make Khali look cool. Not really working guys.

WWE Superstars Results: 1/21/10

Y2J, The Second Fall Back

The main event pitted Chris Jericho against Kane. The two men are coming off of great wins from last week's SmackDown: Chris Jericho defeated John Morrison, and Kane defeated Dolph Ziggler. But who would fare in a match between these former co-captains?

Chris Jericho usually has an air of conceit as he enters the ring, but this time, he scurried out of the ring when Kane made his way inside the squared-circle. Jericho, for the most part, spent the match running in and out of the ring to avoid a beat down. But when Kane ultimately caught Jericho, all he received as a beat down. Jericho failed at connecting with both the Walls of Jericho and the Code Breaker. So when he narrowly escaped the chokeslam, he abandoned the match for the 10-count.

This is poor momentum for Chris Jericho heading into the Royal Rumble. How can you hope to win if you cannot take your opponents head on?

Well, Jericho exhibited two tactics vital in a Royal Rumble. One, is to escape the ring from the bottom rope (doesn't count you out of the match); and two, be able to evade finishing maneuvers.

Blond Bashing Divas

The opening contest was WWE's resident tone-deaf diva, Jillian Hall taking on the lovely Kelly-Kelly. We have seen these two fight on numerous occasions, usually yielding the same results. But throughout the years, the one making strides to become a better wrestler is Kelly-Kelly. Her victories over Jillian Hall may be due to the fact that she knows her opponent too well, and has already amounted the precise offense to take her down. At the start of the match, Kelly-Kelly managed a springboard arm-bar takedown, followed by a headscissors takedown. If Kelly-Kelly at age 23, no doubt the youngest Diva, continues at this pace, may soon become a champion. Kelly-Kelly did find herself in trouble when attempting another headscissors takedown, Jillian had scouted the move from early on in the match, and tried to pin her during the roll over through the legs. She then attempted the Crash Test Splash, but Kelly-Kelly evaded the maneuver with a kick to the back of Jillian Hall. With Jillian Hall reeling on the ground, this set up for Kelly-Kelly's K2 leg drop for the clean victory.

Vance Archer's First Loss

Two weeks ago, on ECW, Shelton Benjamin catapulted himself out of the ring, eliminating both Vance Archer and himself from the ECW Homecoming Showdown. The intensity between these two superstars have escalated since Archer has decided to make a name for himself at Benjamin's expense. This was no flashy high-risk match, this was a gritty grapple-for-grapple showdown between these two technical brawlers. Vance Archer making use of his size to deliver a big boot to the face of Shelton Benjamin. The Gold Standard countered a move from Archer by thrusting his whole body in a pele kick. In the end, Shelton Benjamin delivers Vance Archer's first loss in the WWE with an Oklahoma roll-up.

WWE Superstars Results: Jack Swagger 3-0; Tyson Kidd Fails Lie Detector

RAW Match: Jack Swagger vs. Primo. After losing the Triple Threat Match at Hell in a Cell, Jack Swagger made a promise to be undefeated in singles competition for the remainder of the year. So far he's 2-0, beating Evan Bourne and MVP. His third opponent was Primo Colon, luckily he was not wearing the red clown shoes from 2 weeks ago. Primo attempted some swift offense, but he was unable to withstand the power of the 280lb force of the Gut wrench Powerbomb. The All American-American walks out WWE Superstars 3-0.

RAW Match 2: Kelly Kelly vs. Alicia Fox. Kelly found some success last Thursday, with a win over Gail Kim; and Alicia has had a series of bad luck against Mickie James in her pursuit for the Divas' Title, but things change. Alicia took the win with a running scissors kick to the back of the head of Kelly Kelly. Only in the WWE can a wedding planner get fired for making out with the groom to be, EDGE, and come back as a wrestler. If Kelly Kelly beat Gail Kim, and Alicia beat Kelly, then does that make Alicia better than Gail?

ECW Match: Zack Ryder vs. Tyler Reks. These two have faced off before on WWE Superstars, with Ryder always victorious. Ryder has made a name for himself on ECW, contending for the title and taking Christian to the limits, but he still hasn't reached his goal. Tyler Reks is really faltering since Sheamus has gone to RAW, Yoshi contended for the title, and even Abraham Washington hired Tony Atlas to make his talk show bearable; but, Tyler hasn't done much with his Superstar Initiative. I personally don't see a future for this guy, he just doesn't have what it takes. Zack picked up the win with the Zack Attack.

SmackDown Match: R-Truth and Cryme Tyme vs. Mike Knox and The Hart Dynasty. Its sad to see Hart Dynasty still heels, I like the 3 day span when they were faces fighting alongside R-Truth, Matt Hardy, and Finlay. Cryme Tyme would make better heels, I'm just sayin! And is Mike Know suppose to be intimidating? Because he never wins matches, he's more like a level 1 monster in any game, scary looking but easy to defeat. The heels really tried keeping Cryme Tyme occupied in the ring, avoiding to get Truth tagged in. It built minimal suspense for when Truth finally got into the ring, where everyone got a chance to knock the other out of the ring, to allow Truth to fight Tyson Kidd. I'll say this again, Hart Dynasty was taken out of ECW prematurely without actually really building them first. Truth was even distracted long enough for Tyson to go for a roll up but was countered. Truth won the match with Lie Detector.

Last night we got a glimpse of SmackDown's commentators: Matt Striker and Todd Grisham, Slammy Award winning team.

WWE Superstars Results: WWE Hypes Up The Wrong Superstars; Kelly Kelly Gets a Pop

This weekend is WWE's newest pay-per-view, Bragging Rights, where the best from SmackDown and RAW determine the superior show. Last night's WWE Superstars consisted of 3 matches, 2 of which have something to do with Sunday, while the ECW match is solely there to remind everyone that ECW is still around.

RAW Match: Kelly Kelly vs. Gail Kim. These two divas will be a part of the 3-on-3 tag team match at Bragging Rights. Joined by Divas' Champion, Melina, they will be fighting for the RAW division; while, Women's Champion, Michelle McCool, Natalya, and Beth Phoenix will be defending the honor of the SmackDown Brand. Surprisingly, Kelly got a big pop from the audience over Gail Kim. The WWE Universe is really rallying behind the Gymnastic Beauty. Gail Kim has really gone down in her wrestling reputation since joining the WWE, but that's the risk you take when you get paid the big bucks. Gail Kim lost miserably to a very cheery Kelly.

ECW Match: Tommy Dreamer and Goldust vs. Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson. For weeks it has been the same spiel, and it has always ended the same. I started thinking, wouldn't it be cool if Jackson had... I dunno, an actual gimmick? It would be awesome if Jackson was like an Apolo Creed. I'm not talking about wearing the trunks like TNA's Consequences Creed, but to have the respect, charisma, and swiftness of Apolo. Now, the Ruthless Round Table has won numerous times, but last night was different. Finally, Dreamer and Dust cheated their way to victory. Even Shawn Michaels has admitted to not always doing the right thing, but you do whatever you can to win in this business, especially if you are at a disadvantage. But of course after you cheat it is smart to run away instead of celebrating. Kozlov destroyed both of them with the Iron Curtain as punishment for pinning him.

SmackDown Match: Matt Hardy and R-Truth vs. Eric Escobar and Drew McIntyre. Both Escobar and McIntyre initially won qualifying matches against Hardy and Truth in separate matches to get on the SmackDown team. Now, after RAW, when both teams for this Sunday stood against each other in the ring, McMahon noticed the shift in power over on RAW. Seriously, it wasn't until both teams were in the ring to notice that newbies such as Escobar and McIntyre could possibly stand a chance against 2 giants?? News has gone around that the SmackDown Team, minus the captains, have been all changed. WWE decided to hype up McIntyre and Escobar to give them credibility, but, as we'll find out on SmackDown, they won't be on the SmackDown Team this Sunday. It will actually be Matt Hardy and Truth that will take their places. I guess the decision was made after this match. The match was pretty decent, but the opposing team doesn't seem too impressive. And... how often will Vickie be there to distract the referee? Seems like a pretty lame gimmick that Eric Esssssssssssssscobar is pulling.

Don't forget to watch SmackDown for the revamped SmackDown team along with Undertaker defending his title in a Breaking Point rematch.

Two New Divas Champions; Full Tri-Branded Divas Trade

Access Hollywood's Nancy O'Dell hosted RAW, and a strong minded host at that. She even issued a Divas Title Match against Jillian Hall?

Divas Title Match: Mickie James vs. Jillian Hall. Now, Jillian has been with the WWE for a long time, going through 2 gimmicks but never winning a title, until last night. In a major upset, Jillian pinned Mickie James to win her first title. The match was somewhat decent, except there was a lot of ring rust with Jillian, seeing as she rarely wrestles. But the look in her eyes and the spontaneity of it all was exciting to watch.

Until, Nancy announced that she had spoken with the other GMs about a Tri-Branded Divas Trade. And issued another Divas Title match against RAW's newest member, Melina!

2nd Divas Title Match: Jillian Hall vs Melina. Jillian did not want to fight because she just won her first title. But in a matter of seconds, Melina's hand was raised in victory as the NEW Divas Champion, the 3rd Diva in history to win both the Women's and Divas Titles.

The list of the Divas Trade is as follows:

Melina and Eve Torres: SmackDown to RAW
The Bellas Twins: ECW to RAW
Mickie James and Beth Phoenix: RAW to SmackDown
Rosa Mendes: RAW to ECW

Obviously, because of the trade, Mickie had to drop the belt to Melina, but because both are faces, an interim Divas Heel Champ had to be named, poor Jillian.

Beth Phoenix was not to thrilled of her new trade to SmackDown and took it on Maria Menounos. Santino Marella then issued a match pitting these 2 together - now since when did Santino become a GM?

Divas Tag Team Match: Maria Menounos, Kelly Kelly and Gail Kim vs. Beth Phoenix, Alicia Fox, and Rosa Mendes. Gail Kim started the match, until Maria wanted in, in which she showed off the wrestling moves thought by Triple H, a few kicks and arm drags. But when Beth came into the ring, Maria was in trouble but managed to bring Beth on one knee. Kelly Kelly won the match by pinning Rosa Mendes. In reality, Maria trained at a wrestling school to learn the basics before going into the match.

Congrats to Jillian Hall for becoming a Divas Champion, but better luck next time after losing it to Melina.

How, How, How... did ZZ Top do on Monday Night RAW?

After Orton issued a handicapped Tag Team match of Legacy versus John Cena and Triple H - the WWE Universe were introduced to ZZ Top, Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons.

Huge fans of the WWE, they once recorded an entrance theme for Nicholas "Wild Thing" Bauer - at Stone Cold Steve Austin's request; they are the first ever co-hosts of Monday Night RAW and were ecstatic to be running the show tonight.

Santino Marella arrived on the scene calling them "Zzzzzzz Top!" and switching their first names - Dusty Gibbons and Billy Hill; but still claiming to be a huge fan of theirs. In honor of his "devotion," Hill fitted Santino with an honorary chest-length, ZZ Top signature, beard, and a pair of "Cheap Sunglasses" to complete the trio for tonight. Santino looked more like a Muppet from Sesame Street - with an oversized beard and shades - quite comedic.

It was also nice of ZZ Top to let Santino play - even if it was air guitar... with an actual guitar.

After the Big Show proved his dominance in the after match of the six man tag team match - ZZ Top plugged in their summer tour with Aerosmith - how did we not see that one coming...

When ZZ Top almost proved to be completely worthless, Jericho showed up to meet the icons of Rock n' Roll and requested a jamming session - seeing as he is the lead singer of his rock band, Fozzy.

Hill and Gibbons had no idea who Fozzy were, but they did know that they wanted Chris Jericho to face off against "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry. And when asked "How?" The Trio started playing "La Grange" in response to Jericho's "How, how, how."

If one match were not enough to prove their status as hosts - ZZ Top outsmarted Chavo Guerrero into accepting another match against Hornswoggle in a "Sharp Dressed Man" match - how interesting that the match also so happens to be the title to one of their smash hits! Do we see a pattern forming here?

And lets not forget their other hit single, "Legs" featuring the Divas of Monday Night RAW: Kelly Kelly, Alicia Fox, Gail Kim, Rosa Mendes, and Santino? The music was all a blair until Santino showed off his legs, in which the music cut - That's when ZZ Top decided to cut out. As a farewell to the whole ZZ Top gimmick - the Divas then contested in a ZZ Top "Legs" tag team match.

And it would not be complete without ZZ Top riding into the arena in, non other than, the red 1933 Ford 3-window coupe hot rod "The Eliminator."

I will go on to say that ZZ Top really had no business hosting Monday Night RAW, just like Seth Green, it's all a gimmick to plug their own projects. At least Seth made matches throughout the night - ZZ Top made two matches and played music the whole time. If it were not for Santino Marella jamming alongside them in a ZZ Top makeover - the whole ZZ Top angle would have been a total flop.

Note: Next Monday's Host will be - Shaquille O'Neal!

Six-Diva Bikini Tag Team Match Slide Show -Thanks Seth Green!

RAW is GREEN!

Seth Green entering the arena to the rockin' sounds of Guns n' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle" was priceless.

Seth Green looked like a little kid standing in the ring next to - this month's Muscle Fitness cover - Triple H.

Of course, Green and H plugged the premiere of the new season of Robot Chicken, which The Game voicing himself in a wrestling segment.

A clip was played, however, until Orton entered the arena and mocked Green's size and potential of being a man.

Green felt compelled to make the main event Legacy vs Triple H, John Cena, and himself! Thankfully he chose the two biggest superstars on RAW to team up with, or else the night would have ended with him on a stretcher.

Seth is on RAW to have fun and give the WWE Universe what they want - well... GOOD WORK GREEN!!! A hell of a job for making a six-diva bikini tag team match.

The women looked sexier than ever: Mickie James wearing a brown tribal-like bikini; Maryse a glittering set; Kelly Kelly a barbie pink set with Nikey shoes; Alicia Fox in brown; while Gail Kim and Rosa Mendez wore white.

Rosa's however, was a one piece - possibly to cover her stomach since rumors have gone around that the diva has been told to lose weight, or else be axed like Candice Michelle.

As hoped for, Hornswoggle would not be far from Green. But instead of dressing him as his double, he issued a rematch against Chavo, except this time, he would have his arm tied behind his back.

Green worried about his tag team match, so he called for the assistance of the Big Show for some friendly advice. His advice, Big Show stated, would cost him [pinky to lips] One Million Dollars [evil laugh] - Obviously an Austin Powers reference.

Green's only advice was the chance of someone his size against a pro-wrestler would result in the same way as Evan Bourne against the Big Show - which is not good at all.

Before his match, Green continued to bring the laughs as he freaked out about the match. Triple H assured him, "It's not the size of the dog in the fight" - as Green pulls out his inhaler for 'Clarity Breathing' his team mates politely left Green standing cause there is no chance in hell that he'll survive.

The match proved to be explosive, as Cena pandered to the audience and tagged in pint sized Green to deliver a "devastating" right hook to a confined Rhodes.

Green even broke up Orton's three count on Triple H - leaving the Viper to maliciously kick Green in the torso.

But before Orton could finish him off with a punt to the head - Cena speared Orton and all hell broke loose as chairs and The Game's trusty sledge entered the fray.

In the end, Triple H and John Cena raised Green's hands high in the air and lifted him up in celebration.

In closing - Green brought Sexy Back to Monday Night RAW with that hott diva action, and kept the WWE Universe cracking up the whole time.

Next Monday's Host will be ZZ Top.

A Fatal Decision for the Diva's Championship

Maryse won the Diva's Title on December 26, 2008, making her the longest reigning Diva's Champion in history.

How did she accomplish such a feat?

By dodging as many title matches as possible. Her reign is impressive but her defense record is pathetic. Since then, she has successfully defended her title against Maria and Kelly Kelly - who are, let's face it, not the greatest wrestlers. Since drafted to RAW, Maryse has avoided Mickie James for obvious reasons.

Mickie James is not only a four-time Women's Champion, but she has also has an impressive winning record against the likes of Trish Stratus, Lita, Victoria, Melina, and "The Glamazon" Beth Phoenix. A match against James would be a guaranteed loss.

Maryse, knowing full well the danger of losing her title, interfered with the Diva's Battle Royal by spraying hairspray in Mickie's eyes - leaving Kelly Kelly to eliminate Mickie for a future title opportunity. Thankfully Mickie would have another opportunity during a Fatal Four Way Match to determine who would face off against Maryse at Night of Champions. This match was women's wrestling at its finest with an impressive array of wrestling maneuvers and close calls. Mickie attempted a Reverse Mickie-DDT (standing tornado DDT), but was put in a chin lock by Rosa Mendes - who was then put in a chin lock by Kelly Kelly. Each of these competitors were determined to challenge Maryse for the Diva's Championship.

Beth Phoenix - a favorite to win the match - would have won after she placed Kelly Kelly in the Glam Slam - an elevated chicken-wing wheelbarrow facebuster - but Mickie disrupted the count and disposed of Beth over the top rope where she was knocked out cold.

Mickie finally executed the Mickie-DDT on Rosa Mendes; thus, making Mickie James the #1 Contender.

In the weeks leading up to Night of Champions - How will Maryse prepare herself for the toughest confrontation in her career? Maryse's safest bet for retaining would be to intentionally disqualify herself. She would lose the match, but she would leave still the Diva's Champion.
