Divas Champion Maryse vs Mickie James Divas Championship Match
Though doused in the face with perfume by Maryse less than a week before battling for the Divas Championship, Mickie James emerged smelling like a rose after defeating the conceited French Canadian to capture the WWE butterfly.
The satisfying victory comes after weeks of taunting and interference by the snobbish former Divas Champion. The win also propels Mickie into rare company indeed; she joins Women’s Champion Michelle McCool as the only other women to have captured both the Divas Title and Women’s Title. The milestone did not appear to go unappreciated by Mickie as she celebrated her landmark victory.
For Maryse’s part, the night would prove especially hurtful. Not only did she lose her precious title, but just moments before the match, she also blew off her suitor, The Miz, by dissing him and telling him that she doesn’t date losers who don’t have WWE Titles. C'est la vie, Maryse, c'est la vie.
Divas Champion Maryse vs. Mickie James While Maryse has held this title for quite some time, I am really leaning towards Mickie James in this one. I just feel her time is upon us and Maryse’s winning ways are about to come to a standstill with Mickie being the new Divas Champion.
Can Maryse fend off Mickie’s Challenge? Maryse has reigned as Divas Champion for seven months, defeating current Womens Champion Michelle McCool in December, to become the second Diva to hold the title.
Four-Time Womens Champion Mickie James has been hot on the heels of the Divas Champion since Maryse’s arrival on Raw in the annual Draft. She defeated Kelly Kelly, Beth Phoenix and Rosa Mendes in a Fatal Four Way Match to earn the No. 1 conterndership for Maryse’s gold.
Mickie has socred a non-title pinfall over the champ on RAW in the pas weeks, but Maryse launched a preemptive attack against her challenger last week, blinding Mickie with a perfume spray during an interview.
Prediction: Maryse will need every ounce of cunningness to hang onto her gold in Philadelphia. However, look for the hard-charging Mickie James to win her first Divas Title in the “City of Brotherly Love”.
THIS WEEK:19 LAST WEEK:20 Her actions may have been devious, but the Divas Champion got the result she was looking for as we think that Mickie James might be a little less confident when the two come face-to-face this Sunday.
