- It is said that Stephanie McMahon is not fond of Michelle McCool, the Smackdown diva recently sent down to Deep South. Why did they hire her in the first place?

Michelle McCool was hospitalized earlier this week after a bad reaction to medicine. She has been working with Deep South Wrestling as of late and as noted before, Stephanie McMahon told her to work on losing the southern accent.

From Palatkadailynews.com: Michelle McCool Alexander, the former three-sport Palatka High star-turned World Wrestling Entertainment "diva," is on the road to recovery from an extreme reaction to medication prescribed for an injury. "When I was in Atlanta (where she is with WWE affiliate Deep South Wrestling), I had a CT scan and they prescribed Ibuprofen that caused an allergic reaction," she said. The reaction was such that husband Jeremy flew to Atlanta and brought her home. She wound up spending eight days at Putnam Community Medical Center ? "It felt like 80," Michelle said, the comment not meant as a complaint about the hospital ? before she was released last Friday. Ever the Palatka football fan ? PHS class of ?98, sister of Panthers' career passing leader Jeff McCool and niece of longtime coach Jim McCool ? she had no choice but to skip the Panthers' thumping of Port Orange Atlantic and listen on the radio. She's still feeling a little weak, but hopes to take in as much of tonight's homecoming game with North Marion as possible. Until she fell ill, Michelle was performing weekly before live audiences of 250-300 on Deep South Wrestling shows televised in the Atlanta area. "I'm so anxious to get back up and running and training," she said. "We had started some shows and they had to change the story lines because I got sick."

-----------------------------------------

Long story short, she's still in deep south (for those of you who didn't know), she's injured and had a bad reaction to medication, and Apparently STephanie McMahon is not a fan and wants her to ditch the southern accent (despite working in Deep South territory which was made to recreate old southern style wrestling). Hope she's nothing like HHH and the supposed rumors of his attitude towards people he's not a fan of.

She's married?

In all seriousness, I think she can be decent given the training. She's a diva AND cares about wrestling? GASP!

That sucks that Stephanie doesn't like her accent. Has she forgotten about her dad, or Dusthtet Rhodeth?

[flairfan75]

Ole Steph will be pissed when she gets to Heaven and ol' St. Peter says, "Aight, ya'll. Jump on the back of the truck. We're a going to the big house." Take that, McMahon. Embrace the Southern accent, dammit.

[hakushi]

what's so bad about the southern accent?

It nobody else has one, and it makes her The southern belle of Smackdown.

i think it's hot personally

[sexualvanilla]

Having her with a southern accent would make her different from the other divas and somewhat unique; they don't want unique girls

[Lance Uppercut]

Maybe her accents kind of annoying and they were afraid of Debra Micheal flashbacks.

Irony: Stephanie McMahon thinking you have an annoying voice

Who woulda thunk it?

Proof stephanie doesn't have a creative thought in her head. The simplest of fans could have come up with something to do with that, even if it's really simple like pair her with Cade and Murdoch since they're supposed to be southern hicks anyway. Which they could do since she wasn't on the show long enough for people to notice a gap in continuity, and she's been gone for a while so the whole brand loyalty can easily be forgotten.

A little more insite... I'm good friends with Michelle's cousin and we were talking about her last night. Michelle had a liver infection and was encouraged to take pain medicine and fight through it by the trainers she spoke with. They didn't know it was a liver infection at the time and it wasn't until about a week later that she went to a doctor and got diagnosed. She ended up losing a lot of weight, but it now apparently on the road to recovery. She is expected to be fully recovered and back with Deep South soon.

Why not use her accent as an advantage? I'm sure Cade and Murdoch could use a valet to help with their popularity.

I'm glad she is on the road to recovery.
In her only match I was impressed by her skills (she seemed more into doing the wrestling thing than the rest of the Diva Search folk), was wondering where she went.

I hope that the infection was caught in time. I'm one that gets worried when I hear about medical crisises

[The Deadly Snake]

I can understand why they would like Shelton Benjamin to have one, but McCool? Women with southern accents sound really, really nice.

ya.....McCool was already hot, but her southern accent makes her even hotter......

agreed!

[EJS]

Her accent was pretty annoying. But I think the problem was she just needed to learn some acting. I recall the only time I heard her was during the random divas/Heidenreich vs MNM Hershey incident. I was quite glad when Melina shut her up. "Come on..Melina...We're just having some fun" or something retarded like that...

which would be a nice change of pace from the Skanky Ho Parade. So, no dice.

I'd love it if they brought her in and made her classy. Someone needs to be.
