It just occurred to me that during my predictions diatribe over the whole THREE MATCHES, I neglected to mention the Divas Title match, which Eve Torres won for some reason despite not being part of the original line-up. You know, there’s a very good reason why I didn’t bring up the match and why I didn’t acknowledge its existence in the original post;

I didn’t care.

Anyone who has read the previous predictions posts on this blog (or watched the video of me trying to watch RAW 900) should know that I don’t care for the Divas matches in general. Trying to watch these women bounce around the ring is depressing and makes me yearn for the days when WWE had competent women wrestlers who were capable of putting on a decent match every so often. It seems rather sad that when there are hot women in tight spandex on my TV these days, I want to take a piss.

I don’t blame the women; I’m sure they try their best, but their best isn’t enough and nobody else is giving me sufficient reason to care for these ladies. They have no personalities whatsoever and are nothing more than glorified interchangeable Barbie dolls.

Maybe Awesome Kong will change that perception when she eventually debuts… but I have a feeling she’s just going to be repackaged as the “black” Bertha Faye. It’s been more than a decade since such a gimmick was pulled off; I’m sure Vince is anxious for a revival.

My predictions:
Edge retains his World title.
Miz retains his WWE title.
John Cena wins the Rumble.

The results on the card:
Edge retains his World title. (1-0)
Miz retains his WWE title. (2-0)
Alberto Del Rio (YES!) win the Rumble! Thank GOD! (2-1)

POST-SHOW NOTES: It just occurred to me that Dolph Ziggler and Randy Orton, the two guys who were competing for world titles and lost, were entered into the Royal Rumble match. I guess the bump to 40 wasn’t so good after all, was it? It also just occurred to me that Kevin Nash did not tear a quad during his more-than-brief stint at the Royal Rumble. Good show, Kev.

Later.
