Not the most impressive Styles Clash, but still pretty effective. She works well as a heel and was getting heat at least, which is more than can be said for her face run as champion. So I don't think the chants matter as much for the moment. I'm just worried it seems like they're turning her into a more bitchy version of Beth Phoenix (high impact facebuster finisher and all), which I'm not so sure about, unless Gail Kim is definitely coming to Smackdown.

Wasn't this the Richmond show where a lot of people showed up expecting to see RAW and therefore Mickie, and were left a bit disappointed? WWE should make a better job at telling fans which roster they're seeing.

Since when does McMeh have that finisher?
BTW, I get the feeling there are currently no credible faces in the Smackdown division - at least I don't consider Maria or the Bellas especially credible.

I kinda like McCool as a heel. Granted, I prefer Teacher McCool that they didn't do much with, but her style works better on the heel side of the coin.

This video really makes me want to go to a SD/ECW or RAW House Show. I miss house shows....

Hm...I didn't think it was possible, but now I cant stand her even more. I dont mind her in ring stuff, but the persona is just bland.

Pressups next to a fallen opponent? HEH?

Since when does McMeh have that finisher? She started using it a few weeks back, according to her, because the Angel's Wings was injuring too many Divas.

WWE should make a better job at telling fans which roster they're seeing. Everyone's entitled to their favourites 'n all, but do you have do mention her in pretty much literally any post where there's a remote oppurtunity that she can be shoehorned in. Apologies if it was a joking post, and I appreciate that it's 'your gimmick', but the idea that fans going to a Raw house show are going to have Mickie James as one of the people they are most looking forward to seeing is propostorous. On McCool, I think her as some maniacal fitness freak kind of character could work. She just needs a character full stop. With her as a face she literally had nothing. I think they were trying to make her the girl that was modest, all round good girl. Most likely to appeal to the young girls and their mothers. I'm sure this probably did get her over with that demographic, it's just that doesn't generate much noise. The mums won't make a sound and the young girl will barely be heard - she's hardly going to scream for her, more clap and applaud. She also had no sex appeal about her character. She was just nice, always does the right thing, 'modest' type of character. As I say, it would have got over with the young girls and their mums who would see her as a good role model, but that doesn't generate noise. A heel run with an actual character will be great I'd say. She just needs something to make it look like she has a character. I see what they were trying to do with the nicey nice character though. Every demographic needs someone that is there just for them. McCool wasn't really for the males. It's like everyone saying Lashley's push wasn't working. Maybe he wasn't blowing the roof off the place every night, but he was, over, and especially with African Americans, which may have been the plan to draw them in as Cena may not be their ideal type of guy, and they may be able to relate to Lashley easier. It's that kind of thing, targetting the demos.

My guess is out of 8000 people (estimate) in attendence, roughly...3 of them saw blue ropes and thought "Oh snap, this means no Mickie doesn't it?"
