The Tremendous Ten Ladies of the Week Jan 19th-23rd

1. Beth Pheonix

Last Week- 2
Total- 3 weeks

Though it’s been clear that Kelly Kelly has greatly improved her in-ring ability in recent weeks, her quickness and agility just weren’t enough when she stepped into the ring with Women’s Champion Beth Phoenix. The Glamazon used her immense strength and power to put down the blond bombshell, lending credence to her claim as the most dominant Diva. Following the match, Phoenix met up with her beau, Santino Marella, who had a special surprise for her: The Glamazon’s crazed No. 1 fan, Rosa Mendes. The Italian Superstar was eager to bring Mendes on as an intern, but Phoenix reserved judgment. That was not the last we saw of Beth Phoenix, as she also went after Melina later on that night. Rosa wanting to impress Beth attacked Melina first. Beth was not happy at all with Rosa or Santino whom sent Rosa to go after Melina. Beth then stated that she doesn’t need anyone’s help to defeat Melina. With Beth pretty much determined to walk out of The Royal Rumble as the women’s champion, will her paranoia get the best of her?

2. Melina

Last Week- N/A

Melina picked up momentum going into her Women’s Championship Match this Sunday by defeating Candice at a couple House show matches and Jillian. But after putting Raw’s tone-deaf songstress down, Melina was once again attacked by Rosa Mendes, this time at Santino Marella’s suggestion. Before The Glamazon’s potential “intern” could do much damage however, Women’s Champion Beth Phoenix herself entered the ring, casting Mendes aside in order to get some licks in on her Royal Rumble opponent. With Beth getting the last laugh is it fair to say that Melina will win at the Rumble?

3. Michelle McCool
Peak- position 3
Last Week- 3
Total- 3 weeks

Over the past several weeks, Michelle McCool has laid siege on any Diva she has felt was “jealous” of her. But this week, while Michelle was teaming with Natalya against the Bella Twins - with new Divas Champion Maryse sitting ringside as a guest commentator, Maria charged in to attack McCool, dishing out some payback on the former Divas Champion both inside and outside the ring. Only when Natalya got involved did Michelle take control, viciously slamming Maria into the barrier and leaving with a smile

4. Stephanie McMahon
Peak- position 4
Last Week- 5
Total- 2 weeks

While celebrating his earlier victory with his “Legacy,” Randy Orton learned from Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes that former potential “Legacy” members Manu and Sim Snuka were seen speaking with Stephanie McMahon, and that there were rumors that she might fire the Legend Killer as she did Chris Jericho the week prior. Intending to hedge his bets, Orton went to suck up to the Executive Vice President, who promptly saw through his brownnosing. The third-generation Superstar then let loose on Stephanie, saying that she hasn’t done anything worthwhile, and that after her father returns, she’ll be out of a job, causing the woman who runs Raw to slap the insulting Orton. Making his much anticipated return to Raw, Mr. McMahon announced to the WWE Universe those six months after his life-threatening accident, he is totally recovered and feels better than ever. After allowing Chris Jericho to speak his peace about Stephanie McMahon and the way she’s run the show, Mr. McMahon allowed his daughter to make the decision whether to rehire Jericho and place him back in the Royal Rumble. The Executive Vice President decided that she would reinstate the first-ever Undisputed Champion, but only on the condition that he apologize to her as well as the entire WWE Universe. After Jericho was dismissed, Randy Orton made his way out and demanded that Mr. McMahon fired Stephanie.

5. ODB
Peak- position 4
Last Week- 4
Total- 2 weeks

ODB and partner Taylor Wilde defeated the Beautiful People at a TNA house show earlier this week. ODB got the pin fall with a roll up from jumping off the top rope on Angelina. ODB defeated Sojourner Bolt by DQ in 2:30. . Tenay announced ODB vs. Kong for the TNA Knockouts Title for the pay-per-view. Sojo jumped ODB to start the match. ODB eventually came back, but Kong ran in and kicked her for the DQ. Taylor Wilde and Roxxi ran out carrying weapons and cleared the heels from the ring.

6. Awesome Kong

Last Week- 6

The Knockouts Champion interfered in the ODB and Sojourner Bolt match and went after her opponent for the title, ODB. Kong who is still injured only did the Implant Buster on her.

7. The Beautiful People
Peak- position 7
Last Week- N/A
Total- 1 week

Lauren interviewed "The Governor." She bragged about making fools of the Beautiful People until they ran onto the set and attacked her. Lauren asked what they were doing as if she was surprised that they didn't see the humor in what "The Governor" did. Security entered the picture to help, but Cute Kip showed up and beat them up. He finally called off Angelina Love and Velvet Sky.

8. Taylor Wilde
Peak- position 7
Last Week- 7
Total- 2 weeks

Taylor Wilde continues her winning streak again this week as she faced off against The Beautiful People in Knockouts tag team action. Kind of odd that Taylor teamed with ODB instead of Roxxi. Maybe it’s because of Kong's injury? Anyways I can't wait to see this feud unfold with TBP and Taylor, Roxxi.

9. Raisha Saeed
Peak- position 9
Last Week- 10
Total- 2 weeks

Raisha Saeed There was a lot of confusion at the start of the Rain/Raisha match when Raisha refused to enter the ring. Eventually, Rain got frustrated and went after Raisha, which caused her to escape by hiding under the ring. While Rain was looking for Raisha, a second Raisha rushed down to the ring. Rain then chased Raisha #2 around the ring until she hid under the ring as well. Rain ran around the ring and outsmarted both Raisha's by catching them as they tried to climb out. Rain grabbed both of them by the hair and attempted to unmask them as the fans went wild.
Just then, a third and the "real" Raisha charged out from the stands and attacked Rain from behind. The two women fought back and forth for close to 15 minutes before Raisha caught Rain on the top rope and hit her with a devastating Death Valley Driver for the pin.

10. Maria
Peak- position 10
Last Week- N/A
Total- 1 week

After three absent weeks (thanks to Michelle) Maria finally returned to get some sort of revenge on Michelle, when she interfered in her match. Sadly Michelle got the upper hand thanks to Natalya.

Candice Michelle

worked a couple House Show matches with Melina last weekend. Both matches got great reviews. What is the most interesting thing to note is that Candice absolutely turned heel or was at least acting like one. She faked an injury to the point where the ref gave the sign for the EMTs in the back to come out...she kept that whole thing going until Melina herself went to check on her and Candice tried to sneak a win.. If Candice is being set up to turn heel on television - she has a real shot of making that work for her. She played heel to perfection last weekend.

The Bella Twins

The Bella Twins defeated Michelle and Nattie yet again at a SD house show. Fun little match. The Bella twins did their switcharoo act, and won. The twins also had a rematch on SD but it was no contest as Maria got herself involved.
