—This week, I opted to not have results for the November 27 episode of WWE Smackdown, as there was no Divas match on the show. Mickie James however did have an appearance on the show. The WWE did a recap of last week’s “Piggy James” segment, followed by a backstage interview with Mickie. Mickie said that in spite of being “picked on” by Michelle Michelle and Layla, she would not be leaving Smackdown.

—Mickie James had a great week with “Team Mickie” being victorious in the 10-woman tag team elimination match at Survivor Series. (See: Survivor Series Results) She also added another win to her belt, in Raw’s “Thanksgiving Mayflower Melee Match.”

—After Raw’s “Thanksgiving Mayflower Melee Match,” former Divas champion Maryse made her return attacking current WWE Divas champ Melina. Her return was met with mixed reactions from fans. (See: Raw Results)

—On the TNA side of things, while there wasn’t two knockouts matches on the show as we are use to, most of the division was on television. Tara, The Beautiful People, Daffney, Hamada, Alissa Flash, Traci Brooks, Sarita and Taylor Wilde competed in a battle royal, to determine the  #1 contender spot to face singles champion ODB at Final Resolution. Tara was victorious, and will be facing ODB at Final Resolution. (TNA Impact Report)

Awesome Kong and Christy Hemme were oddly not in the Knockouts battle royal.

—TNA treated fans to another knockouts match, in an online exclusive. Hamada defeated Alissa Flash in a fantastic match. This is how to work a match when given little time…

—While Awesome Kong may have been absent from Impact in the last 2 weeks, she has been getting buzz on the internet. It was announced that she would be making her return to WSU Wrestling. On Saturday, December 12th, 2009 at Flemington’s American Legion Hall in Flemington, Nj, Kong will challenge Mercedes Martinez for the WSU World title. This will be an uncensored rules match—a must see.
