June 25th, 2012 Raw Diva Discussion Thread

AJ opens Raw by seemingly speaking to her three men...only to reveal she's been speaking into a mirror. Kane, Punk and Bryan are in a triple threat elimination match so expect her to make an appearance

DIVA battle royal tonight no Kelly or eve.

AJ runs out in the middle of the triple threat (to an amazing pop) and distracts Kane again. he breaks it off with her. she starts crying then starts cackling instead :O

some Beach battle royal announced which shows how shallow the roster is with Kelly, Eve and the Bellas not around. i may be clutching at straws here but could Kharma be returning to interrupt it? i mean they announced it in advance, not just before it was meant to happen but meaning they want people to watch it. the monster heel interrupting a T&A thing to destroy everyone has been done before but can't think why else they'd actually promote a segment like that

okay that battle royal has been hyped twice now, something big has to happen

Aj is great

I actually enjoyed that battle royal and it was good for what it was.Vickie being in it made me watch it even more.Alicia eliminated herself which was weird looks like AJ is the next contender and rightfully so.AJ to me is already Diva of The Year.

I think I threw up in my mouth a little whenever Vickie showed off her bathing suit.

AJ! AJ! AJ!

That battle royal was stupid. I've never liked the elimination rules for the Divas. They can be eliminated through any rope: top, middle, bottom. Just stupid.

When AJ feuds with Layla for the belt, will this be the first program where AJ has the height advantage? Well, Layla's toppled giants like AJ, before.

Great opening video package, followed by a great AJ segment. Hmm, wonder who'll be winning the battle royal?

Nice promo from Vickie. Say what you will about her, but she can work the crowd. Johnny Ace should take notes on how to be a heel GM. I'd say she took the ball and ran with it, making a good case to have the GM role back, down the line. Nothing like those months of Johnny Ace to make me appreciate Vickie.

Opening match: The usual great work from these three, & AJ being her adorable self.

The battle royal had a nice finish, I thought, considering Vickie's a non-wrestler. Beth & Nattie dominate most of it, only for Layla to dodge Beth's charge, eliminating Nattie. Then Layla eliminates Beth, and it's Layla vs AJ, Round 1, with Vickie still in.

Beth provides the distraction, and AJ eliminates the Divas Champion. Vickie thinks she's eliminated AJ, and celebrates. And AJ rises, and does her evil smile thing. Vickie screams at her for defying the GM by not being eliminated. AJ eliminates Vickie, and the GM fumes as AJ starts a "Yes!" chant.

So, AJ's feuding with Layla & Vickie... Looks around for Michelle...
