Is Melina Changing?

With everyone paying so much attention to Kharma, some of the other Divas have kinda slipped out of sight.
Case in point...Melina.
Melina has held the WWE Divas Championship twice and the WWE Women's Championship three times making "The A–List Diva" a five time (insert Booker T repeat here) champion.
But she hasnt been on Monday Night Raw in what, almost three months?
Oh sure she's shown up on WWE Superstars (in a losing effort against Beth Phoenix), but where's the WWE love?
We know there was some heat between Trish and Melina about her boyfriend John Morrison's match at Wrestlemania.
Melina seemed to feel that she should have been in the match with John, not Trish.
But the WWE gets over things like that right?
(Uh-huh)
Besides, WrestleMania XXVII was back on April 3rd and Melina hasnt been on Raw since January 24th (I think), and that was way before WrestleMania.



On a recent live chat over at her official site (http://realmelina.com/) she said...
"I'M ACTUALLY THINKING OF CHANGING MY LOOK ALL TOGETHER. MAYBE IT WILL MAKE PEOPLE SAD BUT I AM AT A POINT WHERE I NEED A DRAMATIC CHANGE."
Evidently Melina's cap lock is stuck or she likes to shout, but we get the point.

What kind of change is she looking for?
Going back to face again?
I hope not.
I think Melina plays a great heel.
If the WWE would give her a chance to play at all that is.

AJ Lee - The Next WWE Diva?

It's rumored that Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) and WWE NXT Diva AJ Lee will be the next lady called up to the main roster for the WWE.
AJ has teamed up with Natalya at several live Smackdown events, taking on Rosa Mendes and Alicia Fox.
This week she had a dark match at Smackdown taking on Rosa.
Interestingly, the WWE seems to be letting AJ ease into the main roster by working with Divas that also came from FCW like Natalya, Rosa and Alicia, as opposed to just throwing her out there.



AJ was trained by Jay Lethal and made her pro wrestling debut on September 29th, 2007.
Before signing with the WWE, AJ worked for WSU where she held the WSU Tag Team Championship (with Brooke Carter) and the WSU/NWS King and Queen of the Ring (with Jay Lethal).

She was signed by the WWE in May of 2009 and went to FCW.
There she has held the FCW Divas Championship and was the Queen of FCW.
AJ is the first FCW Diva to hold both the Divas Championship and the Queen of FCW title.

She got quite a bit of recognition by appearing in the third season of NXT as one of the rookie Divas where she was eliminated in Week 12, despite the fact that she won six challenges, more than any of the other Divas.
(Naomi was next closest with five).

Probably the smallest Diva at five foot two and 107 pounds, AJ relies on her speed with the bigger ladies.

Here is a video of AJ Lee taking on Brie Bella at NXT.
In a change for Brie, she is actually four inches taller and has 23 pounds on her opponent.

Chyna Returns to... TNA

Although the TNA website is still listing the match at TNA Sacrifice this Sunday as "Kurt Angle and ??? vs. The Jarretts" we all know Kurt's partner is Joanie "Chyna" Laurer.
That is unless you have no internet connection, and if you don't, how are you reading this?
After nine years, Joanie will be returning to the (now) square ring in TNA.
A move which has left Vince McMahon livid according to reports.
Vince was considering placing Chyna in the WWE Hall of Fame, but that's pretty much gone now.
And the sad thing is, Chyna is working for TNA on a "handshake deal" with a "very, very short leash."
Of course with so much train-wreck behavior in her past, who can really blame them?

Hey, I hope Chyna keeps it together.
I would love to actually see her work matches again.
But I might not get to, because it's rumored that "The Ninth Wonder of The World" has been offered a one year contract with Japan's Inoki Genome Federation which Kurt Angle has worked for in the past.

But I can still hope for Chyna vs Tara can't I?

Goodbye Michelle McCool, Hello Kharma

Isn't it kinda strange when the WWE Extreme Rules PPV has a better Divas match than Wrestlemania?
Yeah I thought so too.
I have to admit, I think Michelle McCool and Layla really brought it in their "Loser Leaves the WWE" match.
It was a better match than I expected.



I'm not gonna change here and say that I'll miss Michelle McCool or that she was the greatest Diva the WWE ever had.
But she did come a long way from the 2004 WWE Diva Search.
Michelle held both the WWE Divas Championship twice and the WWE Women's Championship twice.
And LayCool was arguably one of the best ideas the WWE had for Divas recently....and was no way inspired by TNA's The Beautiful People.
::cough::

Is she gone "forever"?
Maybe.
With the Undertaker being seen less and less, I doubt he wants his wife pulling the grueling schedule that the WWE superstars do.
I would imagine he would want her to stay home.
Plus, there is that recently revealed foot injury to content with.

On a high note, we did get to see the appearance of Kia Stevens, aka Awesome Kong aka Kharma.
(You know I kinda got excited when I heard "Kharma" was coming to the WWE, I thought it was Jennifer Thomas)
Kharma got to come in, do the "Monster Heel" bit, demolish Michelle and scare the crap out of the other WWE Divas.

Please WWE, do a Brock Lesnar with Kia.
Have her do some run ins and crush some Divas (The Bellas, Kelly, Eve) before she really gets a storyline going.
You could do Gail versus Kharma (ala TNA) or do what I think most of the fans want, Beth Phoenix and Kharma.
