Victoria Weekly: By Sara Mason

Here’s the newest issue!!
Wow, the women’s division is dead already just 6 days after Molly leaving. we get Victoria standing around with the bimbos looking at the newest Diva magazine, and Trish is apparently going to be “hooking up” with Viscera. Disgusting? Yeah, to say the least.
First up we have the RAW Diva Search. Not a bad idea I suppose, but it was nothing more than 10 talentless bimbos whoring themselves out to a bunch of horny males, and nothing else when you really get down to it. But that’s all WWE cares about anymore… T&A. Despite my mild disinterest in the whole affair, I still had a few favorites to win, one of which did. Christy Hemme became the newest RAW Diva, and really shows some promise. But I’ll get back to Ms. Hemme later on.
It was quite interesting to watch the segment between Trish and Lita. The reaction Lita got made me laugh, because here they were booing her and yet she tried to deliver babyface lines. The fans saw right through it, and booed when they normally would have cheered. And for 2 weeks in a row, Lita and Kane have been booked as husband and wife. It’s a miracle really. I just don’t see why they insist on putting Lita in TV while she’s injured. Bring in Alexis Laree or Jillian Hall already!
Which brings me to another interesting point. Jillian is supposedly being booked in house show matches in May, teaming with Trish to take on Victoria and Christy. The only downside of this? Rumor has it that she’s going to have the gimmick of having a hairy mole on her face. Stupid? Slightly… anyway, if she DOES get brought up, maybe things will finally pick up for the women. Get those 4 women working regularly and maybe let Ivory come back to the ring, the division could be reborn. Shelly Martinez has been signed to WWE, maybe she’ll come to RAW. If you don’t know who she is, check out her site at http://www.desirelive.com for more info on her. She’s pretty awesome.
To close out the column this week, I’d like to address the upcoming Draft Lottery. Dawn Marie is said to be coming to RAW in trade for Stacy Keibler, and if you ask me that would rock. Dawn’s a good wrestler and has been poorly used on Smackdown. Maybe her luck will change if she moves to RAW and away from Torrie Wilson. I wonder if any Diva switches will actually occur though. I guess we’ll find out.
Oh by the way, Backlash is in a week and it doesn’t look like a Women’s Title match will take place. We’ll probably see Trish accompany Viscera to the ring for a match against Kane. Oh yay, that should be fun. Until next week, here’s hoping that things improve!
