Mickie vs. Victoria, on New Year’s Revolution, For the Women’s Title, 01/07/2007

The last time these two fought Victoria got a clean win over Mickie. After making a check list on a clipboard marking off the divas she had destroyed, she added a check next to Mickie James as she lay there unconscious from a devastating Widows Peak. She then writes “Women’s Championship” on the check list. Will this be the night Victoria makes good on that promise?

This match was fantastic! Even better than their last match on Raw (12\11\06). This match came complete with good ring psychology, plenty of reversals, suspense, dynamite displays of athleticism, and of course, our girl, Mickie James, retaining the title after scoring a clean pin fall.

Below is how I scored the match. (Click here for an explanation of my point system).

Mickie wins by pin fall after reversing a move into her DDT finisher in 6.29 minutes.

Near the end of the match Melina comes to the rescue of Victoria. Victoria has promised Melina a title shot if she wins the belt from Mickie James. And so Melina comes to ringside after Victoria has been knocked to the outside. Mickie meats her outside, ducks a punch, and delivers one of her own, then rear kicks Victoria in the gut as she was trying to jump her from behind.

Mickie gets Victoria back in the ring and goes for her finisher, but Melina grabs her foot and tugs on her. Mickie turns around and tries to kick her foot through the ropes to hit Melina, but Melina has backed off while Victoria sneaks up behind her, gives a couple of strikes and then sets her up for The Widows Peak.

On the outside Candice and Maria attack Melina. Just as Victoria is about to hit The Widows Peak, Mickie reverses it into a Sunset Rollup and nearly gets a pin on Victoria.

After Victoria kicks out she scoops Mickie up into what appears to be either a Power Slam or a Tilta-Whirl Side Slam, but Mickie reverses it into her signature DDT and scores the pin fall.

Perhaps the greatest move of the match was Victoria grabbing Mickie by the hair and tossing her across the ring so hard that Mickie did a 540 spin (one and half spins). It is possible it may have been as much as a 600 spin (one and two thirds). JR made the statement that Mickie looked like a sexy Frisbee.
