Mickie James versus Melina Perez for the women's championship title. Monday night Raw.
This was another stiff match between Melina and Mickie. I just love to watch these two go at it. There has been a big rumor for a long while that Mickie and Melina have real backstage heat, or at least had some heat. So, many of us speculate whether or not they are working that heat out by beating the hell out of each other in the ring. But I personally doubt that.
The reason I doubt it is if these two were to shoot on each other, we'd see a busted lip pretty quick, and there is no blood in a woman's match... at least 3 weeks out of the month (sorry, I couldn't resist). Also, I think both of these ladies have to much professionalism, and each knows that if they make the other look bad, that in turn makes them look like a bad worker, and thus nobody wins from that situation.
But anyway, this match was tough, and rather brutal for a women's match.
The match ended when Mickie went for the Huricanranna in the corner like she normally does, but Melina grabs the rope to stop the flipping momentum, which causes Mickie to fall head first onto the mat. Melina quickly rolls her up for the pin before she has a chance to regain her composure from the spill. And thus our new women's champion is Melina Perez.
Our Mickie, my sweet goddess Mickie, she has lost her title. 'tis a sad day for Mickie fans.
To make matters worse, the word has it all over the internet and even wrestling radio shows, that Ashley will most likely be Melina's opponent at Wrestlemania.
If this happens, and Ashley gets a Wrestlemania spot just because she got naked in playboy, and this costs our Mickie a spot at Mania... May Ashley break her neck. And may the people who scheduled this match quickly die of an aneurysm.
Mickie fans, I urge you, at Wrestlemania, if it is indeed Melina vs Ashley, to chant "we want Mickie. We want Mickie. We want Mickie." throughout the entire match. No need to boo or chant "boring" or anything else. Just chant "We want Mickie." That short, simple message will have the most effect. It will show Mickie that she is loved and respected over a Playboy Playmate. It will show WWE Creative and Booking that we want real women performing the best wrestling matches they can; not glorified strippers and porn queens mocking the art of woman's wrestling.
If we chant "boring" we may inadvertently send the message that women's wrestling itself is boring. And that would only reduce the women's division to more pillow fights and nonsense.
Anyhow, the match went like this (click here for an understanding of my point system)
Time 4.21 minutes. Winner: Melina, by pinfall, becomes new women's champion.
