After nearly a two year hiatus, The Top 12 (formally known as the Divalicious Dozen) has returned to OhSoDivalicious. If you aren’t familiar with ‘The Top 12′ then here’s the drift; it’s just like WWE.com’s ‘Power 25′ feature but ours is much smaller (and better). Ours counts down the top twelve women of wrestling each week. Let’s get on with it with our number twelve, shall we?

#12 – GAIL KIM

Last week: #11
Things are not looking good for the TNA Knockouts champion! For a third week in a row, Gail Kim has been pinned by new rival, Brooke Tessmacher. Not only was she pinned this week by her, but she was even pinned after Brooke hit her with her OWN finisher – Eat Defeat! Gail’s got plenty to worry about now as Brooke challenges Gail at Sacrifice for the title.

The last time we had a music makeover, 30% of you guys that voted thought Brooke Tessmacher should be bouncing down the ring to Rihanna’s saucy “S&M” song, and 15% thought she should keep her current theme, making it come third place in the poll.

Today’s music makeover is none other than the brand-new-returned-from-injury-new-Divas-champ LAYLA! Last night at Extreme Rules – one year since she injured her knee – Layla made her return as a surprise opponent for Nikki Bella and she went on to capture the Divas championship for the first time in her career, making her the fifth Diva to hold both the Divas and now retired Women’s titles. Layla returned using her old Laycool theme, “You’re Not Enough For Me” which now, I think is too old and overused… it’s time for change!

“Pound The Alarm” by Nicki Minaj ♫

Making her big return to RAW tonight as Divas champion, the new bubbly good girl Layla needs a proper dancey track to get her motivated and the crowd pumped – Nicki Minaj’s ‘Pound The Alarm’ just does that. It could get the crowd pumped in an instant with the catchy dance / pop hook. Music makes me high.

After returning from injury and winning the WWE Divas championship last night at Extreme Rules, WWE.com caught up with Layla and they spoke about her injury, rehab and winning the coveted butterfly! Check it out below.

The Divas division is once again flawless! Early yesterday a text message had circulated that former Divas Champion Beth Phoenix had not been cleared to compete in her rematch against new champion Nikki Bella, forcing Executive Administrator Eve Torres to remove her from competition. Those pesky Bellas assumed they were going to be given the night off and were about to head home when – surprise! – Eve drops the bombshell that Nikki will be facing a mystery opponent….. they can relax! It’s not Kharma! And just who was this mystery opponent? None other than the flawless one herself, the returning Layla! For those of you who have been living under a rock for the past year, Layla had been sidelined since last year’s Extreme Rules – where she defeted former tag partner and BFFL Michelle McCool in a ‘Loser Leaves WWE’ match – with a torn MCL and ACL. After a failed attempt at Twin Magic, Layla hit the Layout on Brie, pinning her to capture her first Divas Championship!

A HUGE congratulations to Layla! It is an awful lot of hard work to come back from an injury like that, her title win was well deserved!

WWE’s Greatest Tag Teams list has just gotten a whole lot more flawless! Former Women’s and Divas champions Layla and recently retired Michelle McCool – AKA ‘Team LayCool‘ – make their mark on the list at #36. Here is what WWE had to say about the saucy duo:

Real talk. Latent sexism will lead many to balk at the idea that two Divas earned their way onto a list dominated by Superstars, but the truth is no duo terrorized their division quite like Michelle McCool and Layla in 2009.

Gleefully evil, unflinchingly vicious and better looking than everyone on this list besides Rick Martel, Team Lay-Cool tormented their opponents to the point that Mickie James broke down in tears when they infamously dubbed her “Piggie James” in front of a disgusted crowd. They were a nightmare, a pair of Roddy Pipers in press-on nails who toted around a bifurcated Divas Championship as if it was their very own tag title. Lay-Cool weren’t just attitude, though. When an unfortunate victim finally worked up the courage to fight back, Mich would kick them in the face while Lay cackled in the corner. They were wicked, but being bad never looked so good

LayCool disbanded after last year’s Extreme Rules in a ‘Loser Leaves WWE’ match, in which we saw Layla come up the winner, and Michelle saying a tearful goodbye to the WWE Universe. Whether you loved them, hated them, or just simply loved to hate them, there was no denying that these women were simply flawless!

In light of Trish Stratus’ finishing move the Chick Kick being ranked number eight out of the ten best kicks WWE had ever seen, I thought it was about time we made another list here at OhSoDivalicious and this list being of the best Diva and Knockout kicks of all time.

With Trish exempt from the list as she was the only Diva to make WWE’s list, I count down the best kicks from our Divas and Knockouts!

#10 – STACY KEIBLER

SPINNING HEEL KICK (Watch)
Stacy Keibler was known for her long legs and in each and every match, she used them to her advantage. She would choke other Divas in the corner, stomp on them and even put them to sleep with her finisher, the huge spinning heel kick.

Earlier this week, WWE.com treated us to a gallery in which they called the ‘Greatest Divas Gallery Ever’ with 100 smoking hot photos of Divas past and present! From Kaitlyn to Trish Stratus, even an unseen shot from former Diva Cherry’s ‘Summer Skin’ shoot (Cherry was released in the summer of 2008, one week before her Summer Skin shoot was to be featured)! Head on over to the gallery to have a look! It’s definitely not worth missing!

Welcome to Wrestlemania 28! 

Despite not being healthy enough to do coverage, I will do my coverage anyway since WrestleMania is ONLY once a year.

I will be back to covering Raw and WWE PPVs in May since I will receive surgery this coming week.

Now for what you really want to hear about!

Pre WrestleMania Match

Epico & Primo vs. Usos vs. Tyson & Gabriel saw the tag champs (Epico & Primo) win. Rosa Mendes was pleased.

Daniel Bryan and AJ Lee are backstage in an interview. They kiss and AJ does the “YES” dance like a silly.

Now it’s time for Mania.

Lilian Garcia does a TREMENDOUS  job with the anthem.

AJ Lee  helps Daniel Bryan to the ring. She gives him a kiss and Daniel gets flatten by Sheamus.

AJ tries to console the former champion. BLESS!

Backstage, Team Johnny is babbling. Miz tries a pep talk but Brie Bella and Vickie Guerrero give him scary looks.  David Otunga (who thinks he is a stripper) drinks his FAKE coffee everywhere.

Just to let people know, Wrestlemania 29 is in New Jersey. VERY CLOSE TO THIS HAPPY LADY!

Orton loses on his birthday. :(

Cody loses his title in his dress. :(

We see a hype video for divas (all divas minus Kharma and Maxine were shown!) Lots of Layla shown! (Plus, throughout the night we seen footage of the Mania  week featuring superstars and divas!)

Maria Menounos & Kelly Kelly vs. Eve Torres & WWE Divas Champion Beth Phoenix

Eve comes out with Beth (who thinks she is a bird).  Kelly Kelly and Maria then come out.  K2 and Eve start out. They roll around. Kelly takes Eve to the corner for the back elbow  to no avail. . Eve goes up top for the moonsault but Kelly knocks her down. Maria tags in. She and Kelly do a double “sweet face” to Eve in the corner. Eve takes Maria down  and spanks her everywhere.

Finally, Maria tags K2 back in. K2 goes nuts on Beth.   K2 goes up top and hits Molly Holly’s  Molly-Go-Round pinning Beth but  Eve breaks it up. K2 blocks the Glam Slam into a bulldog.  Maria takes ninety years to go on top. Beth lifts Maria over head until Kelly makes the save. They do a dance and Maria rolls up Beth for the win.

Winners: Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos

They honor the HOF’ers.  Congratulations to them all!!!

Brie Bella introduces Team Johnny, who have Vickie Guerrero as the flag bearer.  Nikki Bella introduces Team Teddy, who has Eve sniffing Zack Ryder and Aksana sniffing Teddy.  Vickie cackles EVERYWHERE! She and Aksana get into a catfight which the Bellas join in for fun.

At the end of the match, Eve rolls in and fist pumps with Zack  distracting him, so he loses for his team. BLESS. After the match, she kicks him in the now flat balls.

Why didn’t Aksana rip her weave off?

Torrie Wilson is sitting in the front row with an idiot.

For some reason,  I’m still swooning over how nice CM PUNK looked in his suit in the Hall of Fame. Bless me.

Cameron and Naomi dance with Brodus Clay. Brodus’ MOMMA and her Bridge club dance. They have scared my Uncle, which I’m eternally grateful to them. THANK YOU!

I would like to know if catering at this event was any good….

Awwh Cena is nice to Betty Skaaland, Arnold Skaaland’s wife.

Bless WM 28! Next year better be off the charts or WWE will not know what hits them when messing with the Big Apple!!!
