Mickie is being misused

[rocket]

Now I'm not the biggest fan of hers, but in seeing that she, the women's champion, was put aside for a match which included Trish and Lita says a lot in my opinion about what the WWE thinks of her these days.

I know that things would have gone differently had Beth not been injured, but still, when your the women's champion, you should be in the spotlight, and not others.

Tonight reminded me of something that happened during Victoria's last women's title reign. There was a Trish-Lita match one week that was promoted in advance and started a Raw, while the actual titleholder didn't make an appearance at all. I know that people blamed Vic's character change, but I really think it's examples like these which is why Vic didn't get over. How can she when she doesn't get the spotlight?

What I'm saying here is that it's insulting to shun the women's titleholder in favor of those two women, especially now since both Trish and Lita are about to leave the company.

Mickie peaked at the WM match.. after that it went all down hill..

I sort of figured she would go the way of Victoria.

I loved it when Mickie was throwing a party for Trish and going bananas throughout it...


..."DROP THE BALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Beth Phoenix should be back very soon. There really is nothing for Mickie to do right now that would make much sense.

Same here, as even with that big push around Wrestlemania and all the love that this board had for her I made a thread saying that the love for her wouldn't last.

In my opinion, there is a problem with the women right now, as with Trish and Lita being treated like this as they are leaving the company, they are setting themselves up for some big problems with getting other women over.

Right now, not counting the new diva search women, the only one I see them caring about besides Trish and Lita is Melina. That is, unless they do someting big with Mickie and Beth when Beth comes back.

Unfortunately, there's not much for Mickie to do when there's only her, Trish, Torrie, Candice, and Victoria. That's four competitors. Six, if you count Lita and Melina, and seven if Maria suddenly reappears.

Though since she's the heel, that pretty much means Trish, Torrie, and Candice. Hopefully, things will spark again once Beth Phoenix comes back from injury.

I really hope they don't pick up the Beth storyline when she gets back. That chick had ZERO personality and couldn't get the crowd behind her to save her life. Maybe a face turn is what Mickie needs to help things some.

There's no one left for Mickie to face. She's over with the crowd but the lack of competition is going to hurt her.

Here's what I'd like to know...why have JR and Lawler totally ignored the history between Trish and Mickie the last two weeks? There wasn't one mention of it.

History for anyone other than HHH is supposed to matter?

Victoria welcomes Mickie to the club.

For reference, here's the thread I made prior to WrestleMania warning people about what would happen to Mickie:

And I forgot to mention how she was also ignored last month on SNME. While Trish and Melina wrestled, she was stuck in that bull riding thing with just about all of the other women. Some way to put over the champ, huh.
