This week, we saw Divas in action both in and outside of the ring, we even saw legendary Divas slap the taste out of some cocky current Divas mouths too!

You’re Scared That I’m Your Biggest Fan Threat…

Michelle McCool’s still hanging around backstage, flaunting her title (with a really nice hairstyle this week!) as Mickie James is talking to Hall Of Famer Mae Young (who’s looking a well as ever, bless her). Showing respect to Mae, Michelle greets her, saying that it’s great to see her… Then ‘noticing’ Mickie sitting next to Mae, “You, not so much.” – But hey, as Mickie says, “The feeling’s mutual.”
*Insert cheap plug for Bragging Rights*
Natalya, Beth and Michelle for Team Smackdown Divas? I don’t have a problem with that! The good news is that theres always next year? With retirement rumours circling the internet, I guess it is real cute, eh Mickie?

Clearly, my dream rivalry are being shoved into team because they’re a whole lot more talented than Mickie James is, not because they’re intimidating or hard to say “No!” to, right Michy? ;) This is the part where Mickie knows, and Beth and Natalya know that Mickie James is currently Michelle’s biggest threat (I seriously thought that she was going to say “biggest fan”, but I think I need to stop wishing for Psycho-Mickz!) for the title… Exit stage left for Mickie with the most charming good luck message: “Break a leg.”

“Hi, Maeee.” Enter the Glamazon, Beth Phoenix, who is also quite happy to strut around backstage, you can hear it in her voice! “Hey Michelle.” Happy to be a part of Team Smackdown at Bragging Rights? Of course she is! The mood changes when she brings Michelle’s title into the equation, then exit stage right, she’s off. Cheeky Mae has to have her little input, oh yeah, Michelle got ‘told’ by Beth (and I guess we can say by Mae Young, too)! HOW DARE Michelle tell Mae Young to shut up, does she not know who she is in the presence of?! Either way, we had Mae slap the taste out of Michelle’s disrespectful mouth and give a little stare down as if to say: “Go on, I dare you.” Michelle McCool is having none of it and decides to leave, while Mae Young looks a little bit proud!

Mickie’s Got Rights To Brag Anyways…

For some strange reason, Mickie James coming out to a Smackdown crowd doesn’t make her seem so dull as a face. It’s a bit refreshing to see Mickie come out instead of, say Melina or Eve. Cheap plug for both Bragging Rights AND SD Vs. Raw 2010… To see the game characters in teams was pretty cool! Back in the ring, Mickie tosses her hat to Jerry Lawler… Come to think about it, doesn’t it seem a bit like Raw dyed blue? Well, that’s just my two cents, which is brought back down to Smackdownland when Layla enters the arena, with (correct me if I’m wrong) a hot new titantron and equally hot attire (which has already been granted the photoshoot wish!). Did Layla trip or something? A lot of attention was focused on the commentators as she was entering the ring, then there was a sudden shot back onto the ring, which is a bit strange. Usually it’s an advert shot, or that might just be me thinking about Raw again!

Again, I won’t go into in-ring details, the video is embedded for your viewing, but I will say that Layla seemed to take quite a number of bumps to the back of her head, which is both painful and frustrating! Michelle McCool is watching the match backstage, liking what she sees when Layla has the upper-hand. Roll up by Layla. Roll up by Mickie. Mickie tries to gain momentum, but Layla stops it and then goes for a pin fall. Mickie kicks out? She wasn’t even in a pin-fall predicament in the first place, Michael! While watching this, I had in mind that Layla is pretty good in the ring, she shows an arrogant heel persona, with a side of feisty, but the crowd just IS NOT interested in this match, which is a shame! *SLAP* Just like when Michelle got big-headed earlier, Layla gets the same treatment from Mickie and comes crashing down to Earth, thus gaining Mickie’s momentum! The crowd is very annoying, they’re like zombies, even when Mickie hits the Neckbreaker on Layla, not even when Mickie hits the Mick Kick do they shift. 1… 2… 3… Oh look, there IS life in there somewhere. They’re probably cheering because the match is over, which is unfair! I think it was a pretty good match, Layla and Mickie had some chemistry, but maybe it needs to be worked on a little bit more.

WINNER; Mickie James!
