Injury Updates on Several Divas Including Previously Unreported Injury
|
- As you guys saw on Monday night, Mickie James is back in the ring after suffering a ruptured implant at the beginning of the month. Mickie is said to be doing fine. Though I would question whether it’s wise to take a Glam Slam after getting your boobs fixed up…
- Raw Diva Kelly Kelly was backstage on Monday night and is expected to continue on the road despite her knee injury. WWE has yet to acknowledge the injury and officials are reportedly unhappy that word of her injury got out. As we reported last weekend, the time-frame for her in-ring return is uncertain but could be a maximum of three months.
- Women’s Champion, Michelle McCool is still injured as you will have noticed on last night’s WWE Superstars. The champ is still plodding along however, working on a current European tour.
- We heard last week that Alicia Fox was working with a sprained ankle, we’ve just confirmed this with another source also. Nothing serious and she was still able to wrestle, in fact by now, she should be fine.

SmackDown Redux Does WWE Superstars (September 3rd, 2009)
|
24/9/09
As the match starts, Maria still doesn’t seem too pleased with Melina, shooting her a look as she heads out of the ring (What is she, 12?). Michelle starts out the match for her team, and she and Melina circle each other before meeting with a tie-up, Michelle taking advantage. She locks Melina in a belly-to-back hold before Melina breaks out, but is met with a knee to the stomach, Michelle then slamming the back of her head to the mat. After a braced knee to the face Michelle attempts a pin, but only gets 1.
A few knees and punches later, Michelle irish-whips Melina, and Melina uses her momentum to her advantage, spinning out of an attack and ending by planting Michelle’s face to the mat. It almost looked like a hurricanrana/face plant hybrid of sorts. (A hurrican-face plant?) A stunned Michelle sits up, only to be met with a low dropkick. She scurries to her corner, tagging in Layla.
Layla comes in like a bat out of hell but Melina bends back, avoiding a clothesline. Layla turns around and attempts a kick, but Melina blocks it with one of her own, continuing with this diversion a bit before planting Layla to the mat and tagging in Maria. Maria comes in quick, performing a flipping head plant on seated Layla. She then delivers a fist to her head in a split maneuver, going for the pin but barely getting 2. Layla reverses an irish whip, but Maria stops her momentum with the ropes, kicking her in the face. Maria goes to bounce off the ropes but Michelle makes a grab for her hair. Maria takes the bait, turning and taking a swipe at Michelle. Layla takes advantage of this distraction, booting her in the stomach as soon as she turns around, twisting her into a neckbreaker. A pin attempt, and a 2-count.
Layla tags in Michelle, stretching Maria out like a canvas so Michelle can kick her a few times in the midsection. Michelle continues to use her knee brace as an unofficial weapon, knocking it against Maria’s skull. She attempts a pin, but only gets 2. She mounts Maria, pounding her head against the mat, whic hthe referee takes offense to. (Oh, she can’t grab her hair, but she can use a hard knee brace to strike with? Okay, solid logic..) She keeps messing with Maria, kicking her around and practically stepping on her as she crawls around the ring in a daze. Maria heads to the safe haven of the ropes, but Michelle decides it isn’t a safe zone, choking her against the bottom rope with her knee. Choking Maria some more, she drags her closer to her corner, choking her against the second rope this time. After driving Maria into the corner, Michelle tags in Layla

WWE Debuts New Ring Announcer

23/9/09
It appears as though the WWE may have already found a replacement for Lilian Garcia in 24 year old Lauren Mayhew. She debuted tonight with the SmackDown brand, so it appears as though they may hold off on her actually taking Lilian’s spot until she gets her sea legs. The similarities–blonde hair, musical background–certainly aren’t lost on me, so it’s not exactly a coincidence that she debuted the night after Lilian’s departure.
Lauren has a bit of acting experience as well, though I doubt “Frat Party” is going to be a competitor come Oscar season.. For more info on Lauren, check out her official website and IMDB profile.
EDIT: Want a taste of her singing abilities? Check out this video of her singing the national anthem for the NHL’s Tampa Bay Lightning, her hometown team. She’ll likely be doing it night after night, so it’s good to know she’s got a bit of experience doing it:

Vickie Guerrero will return to WWE
|
Former SmackDown and Raw General Manager, Vickie Guerrero will return to WWE as a special guest during next week’s SmackDown 10th anniversary special.
Guerrero was handed the invitation last week and has accepted. The appearance will mark the first time Vickie will appear for the company since she left in June of this year. At the time, Guerrero decided she owed more time and attention to her young daughters.
It’ll be great to see Vickie back, she is arguably one of the biggest stars born on SmackDown in recent years.
