Welcome to the RAWVIEW, a review of the live red brand action. Last night saw a new number one contender (to the Divas title) crowned, in a ‘Red Carpet Dress to Impress’ battle royal match! The Divas wearing dresses was unnecessary and totally silly and random – but it served it’s purpose, I guess.
The Divas champion, Maryse, was a guest on commentary and I absolutely loved every second of it! The bitchy remarks she came out with about every Diva was priceless! So, after Maryse says “I cannot wait, I’m sure they’re all gonna embarras themselves with this!”, Justin introduces us to the match-up! Kelly Kelly makes her way out, followed by Alicia Fox! Maryse says “A little bit bumble bee, with a wig on!” about Alicia! I love how she’s digging at the heels too! Next out is Gail Kim. Rosa Mendes comes out next in a puffy white dress thingy. This makes Maryse laugh. “This is embarrasing, it’s not halloween, and she looks like she’s wearing a lampshade!” After Rosa, Jillian Hall, Katie Lea and The Bella Twins come out. Eve is out last and gets absolutely slated by the Divas champ! “By far the worst of the night! She probably borrowed that dress from her grandma’s closet. You know what Eve, the fashion police called, they want you on a show called What Not To Wear and she’ll do fabulous!” she says! BURNNNNNNNNN.
Okay after like three and a bit minutes of entrances and bitching, the match begins! The bell rings and Rosa Mendes immediately charges at The Bella Twins, but both of them topple her out of the ring, bless. Rosa Mendes is eliminated. K2 and Jillian fight as Alicia hits Gail Kim. Katie Lea then goes for a Bella as Alicia goes for the other! Katie knocks her to the floor and kicks her out of the ring. A Bella is eliminated. The other Bella fights back on Alicia, she goes to kick her but Alicia moves out of the way! The Bella gets her leg stuck on the middle rope and Alicia kicks her ass out the ring! The other Bella is eliminated. K2 and Eve seem to be double teaming Jillian as Katie Lea is dominating Gail Kim. Alicia has a smart strategy and stays in the corner for a bit, away from the other girls. Katie throws Gail into the corner and goes for a move, but Gail sneakily flies out of the ring but gets elbowed. Katie gets through the ropes and but Gail hits her with her signature jumpy move, which knocks Katie onto the apron. They try to throw each other off, but K2 dropkicks both of them! Katie Lea and Gail Kim are eliminated. K2 points and laughs, taking her eye off the game! Alicia hits a double axe handle on the back of Kelly. She grabs her by the hair and Irish whips her off the ropes, but K2 reverses with her beautiful headscissors! K2 screams to see if the fans want more, which they do – but bless, they aint gonna get it as Jillian lifts Kelly up onto her shoulders and Samoan drops her out of the ring. K2 is eliminated. I guess that’s one way to do it! Eve is propped ontop of the turnbuckle, so Alicia kicks her down. Jillian and Alicia throw Eve back into the corner and hit double a suplex. They Irish whip her back into the corner, Jillian Irish whips Alicia into Eve, but Eve dodges out the way and the turnbuckle post and Alicia meet! Eve pushes Alicia out the ring. Alicia Fox is eliminated. Jillian, clearly mad now, goes straight after Eve and knocks her down. She backs up to the oppisite side of the ring and SCREECHES! She signals for her flippy turnbuckle elbow move which again she misses as Eve catches her with her legs! Jillian walks over to the ropes, where Alicia jumps up and pulls Eve off. Eve then hits a nasty kick to Alicia, sending her back out to the mat. Jillian is yelling and prancing around thinking she’s won, but she turns around and her face drops. She glares at Eve and runs for her, but Eve pulls down the rope and Jillian falls straight through! Jillian is eliminated. Maryse looks disgusted as Eve jumps up on the turnbuckle. Maryse does her signature TALK TO THE HAND pose before saying “I would need some kind of extension for my Divas title ‘cos she’s so WIDE on the hips!”. Bitch, please.
I actually really liked the match overall, but the dresses were a little too random and off putting for me. But it was a good match on the whole and Maryse’s commentary was the best. You can watch the match below.
