WWE 2009 Oct. Diva Trade Discussion *All news goes in here*

I don't know about you guys, but I think RAW got screwed with that trade today .

If Gail & Jillian went to SD too RAW would really bite. RAW is full of mostly playboy and model types WWE trained to wrestle now. Yeah, I know....that includes my girl Alicia.

Shhhhhhhhhhh

all my faves are on SD..'cept Maryse. do you know how long i been waiting for this to happen?

i can cut raw out of my schedule!!!!!

yay!!

I'm kind of excited about the roster change but I'm skeptical at the same tiime about but before I jump to conclusions I will see how it works first.

EDITED

Seems like we are picking the best of the worst here LOL

i dont understand why raw needs so many
and why ecw has any at all
unless savannah and courtney decide to turn to wrestling
but wwe always takes like 2 years to make the switch *maria and eve as examples*

I see Layla turn face and join Cryme Tyme then feud with David Hart Smith and Tyson Kidd and Natalya.

oh how I hope. I think she'd just get better working with someone like Natalya.

I hope Beth turns Face and takes the title off of Michelle Then nattie can take it off of Beth.

I think a character change will be good for Beth. I will like to see how she does as a face.

Oh I never thought of that shocked

PWInsider's Audio update reports:

Quote :

-According to backstage sources, Mickie was moved to SmackDown as punishment, for both her recent stretch of matches with the likes of Maryse, Gail Kim and Rosa Mendes, and also because of her weight. They're telling her to go there "to shape up both figuratively and literally".

-Another trade rumour concerns Beth Phoenix - the PWInsider updates also said that she'll end up being Dolph Ziggler's new girlfriend.

-Mike Johnson said that WWE felt Melina had lost momentum on SmackDown, and the original reason why she was moved in the first place - because they felt she would help out the Hispanic demographic - wasn't working. So they decided to put her back on RAW, which she didn't want to leave in the first place, and put the belt on her straight away to give her momentum.

I'm sorry but I dont think Mickie is fat at all. She's curvy from her chest to her ass.

I don't believe this.

There was no reason at all to the trades. Just WWE's random booking.

well the Mickie thing doesnt surprise me. In the end i think they will get sick of her and release her, though.

did anyone notice Mickie looked incredibly sad right when the bell rang vs Jillian?

look like Beth Phoenix will be Dolph Ziggler's new girlfriend on smackdown.

Beth and Dolph? omg i hope this doesnt mean Beth vs Maria

They've been aiming for Mickie vs. Michelle for quite some time I think, so I wouldn't be surprised to see them battle it out.

tbh that was one of the first things i thought off, Layla as Eves replacement, that would get her more over.....but i just never bothered posting it

Layla getting some wins off Nattie would be fun to see. to work with Nattie would definitely help Layla out.

Another rumor-
-Another trade rumour concerns Beth Phoenix - the PWInsider updates also said that she'll end up being Dolph Ziggler's new girlfriend.

Yay for this I want to see Beth beat Maria up but I rather beth turn face and go for the gold. I wouldnt be surprised if they did a triple threat with Mickie v Michelle v Beth.

^ already posted, janine but thanks.

i'm not too fond of Maria in ring but if she's jobbing to Beth, that's ok.

Like I said in another thread the Beth -Dolph pairing can be good. They can go for gold together and get gold together. lol

But I rather Beth turn face and feud with Michelle and take the title from her and go to a feud with Nattie.

I think it should be Layla to be Dolph's new girl and her and Maria feud, they can help eachother out.

I wouldnt be surprised to see Mickie v Michelle v Beth in a triple threat.

I disagree with Maria being anywhere near the ring unless being squashed by Beth Phoenix

MORE EXCITING NEWS

Diva-Dirt.com

The fallout from the Diva Trade last night is still being felt and now details are starting to pour in. A source backstage at Raw last night tells us:

- The reason for Mickie James‘ move to SmackDown was put down to her work ethic of late as well as her weight. The decision was made to move Mickie to SmackDown, sending her a message to shape up, ‘both figuratively and literally’.

The jibes about her weight, in my opinion, are completely ridiculous — she looks fine and healthy.

- Fans of Jillian may want to start planning a party; her title win last night is expected to be the start of a programme with Melina over the Divas Title. As with all things Creative though, plans can change in a heartbeat but as of now, that is the plan.

- All of the Divas backstage were in good spirits about their moves. The plans were only revealed to the Divas involved over the weekend, while the rest of the crew including the roster learned the news last night along with the rest of us.

Hopefully hear more soon.

i do not want Layla as Dolphs new girl. Im trying to persuade ppl Layla aint THAT bad, and she cant help me if shes having to wrestle someone as bad as Maria

*waits for Silverz to mark out*

Layla vs nattie would be so much better.

^lol

True but being Dolph's girlfriend Layla will be in a good storyline with a top heel, I think it will get her over more then she can move on better oponents.

I do agree Lay isnt that bad at all. Shes really improved but I want her involved in something insted of just jobbing. Maria can job to her. lol

Chances are WWE would want to give maria credibility so a Layla/Maria storyline would be Layla jobbing. We dont need that


put her up with Nattie because I could see some give and take plus Layla needs out of jobberville. She has the ability to win atleast 1 match on her own without interference. She isnt Rosa

Yay Jillian!!!!!!!

What a waste of time these trades were! They have the complete package in Katie Lea and she could be fighting for a title. But no, they keep her on ECW where her talents just go to waste!

Poor Jillian!

But I am so glad Mickie got stripped of the title! And in such humiliating fashion! Then shipped off to Smackdown! LOVE IT!

I am so glad the Bellas got put on Raw!

Maybe we can finally see Maryse vs Nikki vs Brie!

They basically put all of the divas on Raw, besides Layla and Maria, and left 3 of the best wrestlers: Melina, Gail, and Jillian to ensure that the matches are not complete mess ups.

I really hope Jillian and Gail are challenging for the Divas title soon. But I am almost sure Maryse will be the next diva's champ. .

As for SD, they sure got the best divas now! I mean Michelle, Mickie, Beth, and Natalya are 4 of the top 7 women's wrestlers in the wwe. I really hope they make Natalya wrestle. The only problem is that SD only has two faces: Mickie and Maria. Someone else should turn face to even it out a little.

Either way I am pretty excited to see how this turns out. SD made me mad because they didn't do much this week.

Mickie vs Layla one on one in a few random matches. Book it!!

I'm pissed about that too, Katie needs to be used more. The Bella's and Rosa could have developed nicely in ECW. Next draft time, Katie will be getting drafted, I'm sure of it

-- There is talk that Mickie James has been frustrated with her position in World Wrestling Entertainment. Though specific details were not specified, it's being said that she has been unhappy the past few months.

from : rajah.com

aww.. poor Mickie.

looks like she'll be getting pink slipped.

OMG MICKIE IN TNA????? I kinda want her in her original home! TNA!!!!

I like that. Anything that will allow Layla to work with someone wit the skills of Natalya is a plus.

I also like the Beth/Dolph pairing since it means Maria would get her ass handed to her night after night.

As far as Katie, the WWE is is wasting this woman's talent and looks. I agree with everyone who says she's a total package. She needs to go to Smackdown especially since it's the better roster as of this month.

I'm just glad Mickie's gone from Raw. Have fun on Smackdown, Mickie! Now they can edit out your botches.

Beth Phoenix was moved to Smackdown because it was felt that she lost momentum on RAW. It’s been rumored that she could be paired up with Dolph Ziggler.

The Bella Twins were moved to RAW because Vince McMahon was said to have “fallen in love with them” following their guest host skits on RAW several weeks back. They are expected to be featured in guest host segments on a regular basis now.

WWE is said to be high on both Jilian Hall (McMahon likes her act) and Melina (which is why she was moved to RAW).

Beth & Micki, Welcome to SD!!

I really have no interest in Raw now.

Quote :

As a kid growing up in Medford, Maria Menounos sometimes watched professional wrestling with her dad. It was like a soap opera, but instead of Luke and Laura, the wild-eyed characters were named “Ravishing’’ Rick Rude, Randy “Macho Man’’ Savage, and Brutus “The Barber’’ Beefcake.

“My mother got so mad at us for watching it,’’ she said yesterday, “but I got sucked into the story lines.’’

WWE chairman Vince McMahon must have had an inkling when he invited Menounos and her “Access Hollywood’’ colleague Nancy O’Dell to host this week’s “Monday Night RAW.’’ Menounos jumped at the chance, but with a request: She wanted to wrestle. (And promote her next movie, “Serial Buddies.’’)

“They agreed,’’ Maria told us yesterday, “so I took six training sessions and learned the different moves - the leg drop, the arm drag, the sunset flip.’’ The throwdown was televised live Monday night, and Menounos was dressed appropriately: Black spandex pants and a bikini top emblazoned with the Greek flag. (The evening’s featured acts were Randy Orton, West Newbury’s own John Cena, and Chris Jericho.)

Menounos was teamed with wrestlers Gail Kim and Kelly Kelly against “The Glamazon’’ Beth Phoenix, Alicia Fox, and Rosa Mendes. Believe it or not, Maria emerged victorious. “I kind of smashed my tailbone on that flip, but I got some ice on it and I’m fine,’’ she said. “I told Vince I want to come back with [wrestler] Maria Kanellis as ‘The Golden Greeks’ and come out to ‘Zorba the Greek’ music.’

Maybe Maria Menounos can teach Maria to wrestle

lol she can certainly show Jenna a thing or two

looks like theres a small hope for jilly perhaps

i hope maryse wins the divas title soon! be sexy!

Maryse should be returning any time now. I hope Katie gets drafted in the next Draft.

Knowing WWE? Next Random Draft will be around January

Hell Yes it would but ZOMG! We dont want die hard Nattie fans bitching about Layla beating her.


I really hope that report about Jillian is true and if so, she needs to step it up with her botchy self. I excused it before because she was jobbing and I didn't blame her but now she better get back to her awesome self from circa 2005/2006

who cares if a Nattie mark bitches? girls like Layla cant get better unless they start working with the best..like Nattie...Katie...

I'll be happy as hell to see Layla pin Nattie, on her own, in a one on one match.

I would love to visit UD the day Nattie gets pinned by Layla


She needs to drop the Layout, it sucks and I want her kick back now!

^ it only sucks when assholes cant sell it. it looked effective when Melina sold it, but Eve made it look weak. and Kelly held her back like a moron

and i want to see Layla win Nattie on her own. PPL will bitch, even though i didnt see many ppl bitch when Eve did it

I will like Layla to turn face and feud with Nat but shes much better as a heel. Thats why I suggested her being Dolph's new girlfriend insted of Beth. At least it will get Layla on TV and in a major storyline. She may not job to Maria. She can beat Maria's butt.

Other then Eve moving, I don't see any problems with the trades.

- Eve was really developing as part of Cryme Tyme.. But she's not established enough for people who don't look out for WWE.com shoots or watch SD to care. However, her backfli--err.. wrestling will be better recieved on Raw I think because the Raw matches tend to be more spotty anyway. I wonder if Kelly and her will try to make a WWE verison of SariTaylor or whatever the IWC calls that team.

- I like Bellas. They don't do anything but stand in the background and smile. Plus, I don't think they are as bad as people make them. They do their parts as expected. I do think their flack is because people are obsessed with seeing the "good" wrestler with no character or charisma being pushed. I ain't saying the Bellas are the most charismatic or that they have characters, but I do think there's something about them that is so radiant.

- lol @ the "Melina lost her momentum". Jobbing to Michelle, someone no one in the arena gives a damn about, for months will do that to ya. I think the way she handled that botch on Raw made the move even more practical because she didn't break face and smiled afterwards. LEARN FROM THIS MICKIE! Just sucks that crowd didn't react at all to her coming out or winning that Divas title.

- Sucks for Rosa. Her was the perfect bumbling heel. Her move excution was getting better, even though she was only in the ring to make the face look even better.. I still would like to see how she wrestles against someone who doesn't need Trish in the match to have a good match. I hope she gets paired up with someone on ECW. Make it an odd couple like Yoshi since he doesn't speak English and she can take advantage of him wanting a piece of that ass.

- I think we should pitch in for the Beth tombstone. Her ass is soooo gonna get buried. I don't think she should be paired with Dolph. Then again, I don't think Dolph should be a heel. But I digress. If she is paired, maybe he can win the title with help from Beth and boost to Maria about how he finally gots a woman who helps him out. If that's the case, I would Beth being "madly" in love while Dolph dodges her kisses. haha

- Mickie say "Sup, Nattie and Beth?" when Michelles buries you too.





As far as Layla goes.. I like the Dolph pairing cuz I want them both as faces. haha

But, I would have Michelle deliver a bore-tastic promo about how Melina "got lucky" she had so many times to take her title and fail. Then she goes on about being a fighting champion and gives out title shots to everyone but Layla. Layla plays a key role in Michelle's wins verses Beth and Mickie (since they aren't exactly presented like jobbers). Then have another promo from the generic freak about how she did all the work only to have Layla be all "What the hell? Where's my title shot." And even if Michelle wasn't chin fucking the other SD divas, I would still have Layla lost the title match.

But man, that wouldn't do anyone ANY favors. haha
