PHOENIX – In the WWE.com online exclusive WWE Diva Halloween Costume Contest, 16 of the Divas dressed in the spooky season’s best.
For the second year in a row, former Women’s Champion Mickie James has won the WWE Universe’s vote. Last year, she wowed our fans with her Indian princess costume, but this year she won the contest as Lara Croft of the Tomb Raider video game and movie series.The WWE Universe logged on to WWE.com and after many votes, Mickie James in her Lara Croft costume reigned victorious.

“I’m really, really excited, because I was extremely shocked, again this year,” Mickie told WWE.com after her win. “I was shocked the first year and I was even more shocked this year. I felt like my outfit was cute, but it was not super sexy. I’m very happy!”

In what’s become a Cyber Sunday tradition, the Diva Halloween Costume Contest quickly turned into a Divas brawl.

The two-time champion is grateful for the WWE Universe’s votes, and said she hopes they enjoyed the Divas Halloween Costume Contest.

“Thank you, so very, very much. I’m very grateful and it means a lot to me,” she said.

As for why she chose to be Lara Croft, Mickie said she was a big fan of the video game and also loves Angelina Jolie in the Lara Croft role.

“Any girl who is empowered and goes out there and kicks you-know-what, I admire.”

SHIMMER - WOMEN ATHLETES returned to the Berwyn Eagles Club in Berwyn, IL on Sunday, October 19, 2008. Volumes 21 & 22 of the SHIMMER DVD series were filmed during the course of the event. Here’s what went down…

The first two women’s bouts of the day consisted of SPARKLE pre-show tryout matches.

1. MELANIE CRUISE defeated CHERRY BOMB.

2. RACHEL SUMMERLYN defeated “Sassy” STEPHIE SINCLAIR with the Texas Cloverleaf.

The first half of the main show portion of the taping consisted of matches which will comprise SHIMMER Volume 21.

Ring announcer JOEY EASTMAN welcomed the fans to the show and brought out SERENA DEEB for an in-ring interview. Serena stated that she’s been in SHIMMER for over two years now, and it has always been her goal to climb to the top of the card and prove that she is championship material. After being forced out of the SHIMMER Title Tournament due to an auto accident on the day of the tourney, she said she has not lost focus of trying to earn a future opportunity at becoming SHIMMER Champion. Serena said that she gave it her all against SARA DEL REY during their match on Volume 20, but the physical punishment to her knee during the match prevented her from continuing to fight. Deeb asked for a rematch against Del Rey, to prove that she could pull out the win if given another chance. Del Rey came to the ring and said she’s through wrestling against “bottom of the barrel” talent like Ariel and Serena, and the only thing that matters to her is regaining the SHIMMER Championship. Serena and Del Rey exchanged further words, prompting Del Rey to attack Serena. A referee slid into the ring and called for the opening bell.

1. SARA DEL REY defeated SERENA DEEB with the Royal Butterfly. Deeb put up a strong fight once again, but was outmatched by the brutality of Death Rey.

2. MISS NATURAL defeated LORELEI LEE. This was Natural’s SHIMMER debut.

3. DAFFNEY defeated CAT POWER. Daffney grabbed the microphone prior to the match to call out Power, who was able to pull out the victory against Daffney on Volume 20, as a result of targeting Daffney’s bad knee. Daffney said the knee is back to 100%, and ended every sentence with the word “meow” as she tried to lure Cat to the ring. Power accepted, wearing a cat mask on her entrance. During the course of the action, Daffney produced a ball of yarn and threw it across the ring, only for Cat to chase after it, among other silliness. In the end, Daffney was able to score her first SHIMMER victory!

4. NIKKI ROXX defeated DANYAH with the Barbie Crusher.

5. “The Croatian Panther” WESNA BUSIC defeated AMBER O’NEAL with the CB4 Driver. The SHIMMER fans in attendance gave Wesna a fantastic reception upon her return, while also taking great pleasure in heckling a quite intimidated and nervous O’Neal. Amber, much like in match against ALLISON DANGER on Volume 7, actually went strike for strike against her hard hitting opponent, which is not a side often seen from O’Neal. Ultimately, she fell victim to Wesna’s CB4 Driver. This was the first win for The Croatian Panther in SHIMMER competition, after falling in her initial two outings.

6. The SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Gauntlet was next. Six teams drew numbers at random to determine the order of entry.

A. “The Canadian Ninjas” PORTIA PEREZ & NICOLE MATTHEWS defeated “The Pink Ladies” MADISON EAGLES & JESSIE McKAY with a superkick/German suplex double team combo.

B. “The Suicide Blondes” LUFISTO & JENNIFER BLAKE defeated “The Canadian Ninjas” PORTIA PEREZ & NICOLE MATTHEWS with a powerbomb/second rope lungblower double team maneuver.

C. “The International Home Wrecking Crew” RAIN & JETTA defeated “The Suicide Blondes” LUFISTO & JENNIFER BLAKE after Jetta knocked Blake out with a foreign object behind the referee’s back.

D. ASHLEY LANE & NEVAEH defeated “The International Home Wrecking Crew” RAIN & JETTA following their STO/Yakuza kick double team combo.

E. ASHLEY LANE & NEVAEH defeated “The Experience” LEXIE FYFE & MALIA HOSAKA with the STO/Yakuza kick combo to become the first SHIMMER Tag Team Champions!

The entire SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Gauntlet was 45 minutes in length.

7. “Portuguese Princess” ARIEL defeated CHEERLEADER MELISSA & AMAZING KONG & “The Latina Sensation” MERCEDES MARTINEZ in a Four Corner Survival Match to determine who would get a SHIMMER Title Match on Volume 22. Late in the contest, Martinez hit her signature fisherman buster on Melissa, but the pin attempt that followed was broken up. Martinez and Kong battled to the floor, as Ariel capitalized by following up on Melissa with the Dariel to lead to the pinfall, and #1 contender status for Volume 22.

8. SHIMMER Champion “Your Soul’s Tormentor” MsCHIF defeated DAIZEE HAZE to retain the SHIMMER Championship after hitting the Desecrator (her fourth defense since winning the belt). This was Daizee Haze’s return to SHIMMER action after being forced to miss Volumes 19 & 20 due to a back injury. Prior to the injury, Haze had been on a SHIMMER winning streak. Haze had proven she could pin MsChif during the summer of 2007 on Volume 14 in Florida, so Chif granted Daizee this SHIMMER Title Match opportunity out of respect.

Volume 21 closed with a locker room promo by SERENA DEEB, who said that she is not going to let the Del Rey setback cause her to lose focus on working her way into title contention. Serena said she would face anyone on the roster necessary in order to prove herself, whether it be Cheerleader Melissa, Mercedes Martinez, Amazing Kong, or anyone else. MsCHIF interrupted, praising Serena’s drive and determination, and her strong efforts against Del Rey, the woman who MsChif defeated to become champion. Chif told Serena that if she can beat Del Rey, she will give Serena a title shot any time she wants it. The two shook hands, and Serena thanked MsChif for the opportunity.

TNA Knockout Women’s Championship Match
Taylor Wilde (c) vs. Awesome Kong vs. Roxxi

A great back and forth match. Taylor and Roxxi started the match with a temporary alliance against Kong. Once Kong was out of the ring, Roxxi and Taylor went at it, forgetting about the menace of Kong, who after getting her wind back, asserted her presence in the ring. Kong started throwing around Taylor Wilde while Saeed dragged Roxxi outside the ring. Roxxi gets back into the ring, throws out Taylor and backs into Kong, who took her to the mat. Roxxi mounted offense against Kong, hits a neck breaker and backsplash off the ropes and covered Kong. Taylor Wilde made the save to protect her championship and then Kong takes control again. Kong hits the implant buster on Roxxi and gets a two count broken up again by Taylor Wilde. Kong goes to the top with Taylor Wilde following and Wilde ends up thrown off and Kong falls to the outside. Roxxi gets a two count on Wilde and then tries to land her finisher, the Voodoo Drop, on Taylor Wilde. Taylor Wilde proves once again that she is the master of counters and hits a bridging suplex to win the match and retain the belt!

The only complaint about the match was the length, at six minutes, which just isn’t enough time for a championship matchup.

Winner: Taylor Wilde retains!

Rhino, Rhaka Khan & ODB vs. Beautiful People & Cute Kip
Knockout Bimbo Brawl
Special Referee: Traci Brooks

The special referee Traci Brooks was announced first, then Angelina Love, Velvet Sky and Cute Kip came out next. Rhaka Khan is introduced first for the other team, then ODB with her flask and Rhino coming out last.

The Match began with Angelina Love and ODB. Love blocks ODB’s fall-away slam and Velvet Sky tagged in. Velvet Sky tried to push Rhino off the apron, but Rhino didn’t budge. Rhino didn’t like Velvet Sky’s attitude and tried to get into the ring, to be held back by Traci Brooks. ODB then tagged in Rhino and Rhino showed Velvet Sky he’s an equal opportunity wrestler by going to work on her before throwing her with a hip toss.

Rhino teased Gore and Cute Kip jumped in and moved Velvet Sky to the outside. Rhino chased Kip around the ring, then Velvet Sky went for a clothesline on Rhino in the ring. Rhaka Khan and Kip are tagged in and now face each other. Khan stared down Kip. Kip grabbed Khan’s throat and Khan grabbed Kip’s throat. Kip choked Khan and Khan grabbed his crotch.

Kip tagged in Angelina Love. Rhaka Khan delivered a spinning kick on Angelina Love and tags in ODB who scoop slammed Angelina Love. Kip hits ODB with a make-up box. Angelina gets a two count on ODB.

Traci Brook tried to maintain order in the ring. Love applies a sleeper hold to ODB. The crowd is behind ODB as she got to her feet and hit a back drop suplex. ODB tagged in Rhino.

Kip is tagged in and he and Rhino go back and forth. Rhino overcomes Kip and hits a belly-to-belly suplex. Kip started to counter when out of nowhere Rhino hits Gore on Kip and gets the three count.

Winners: ODB, Rhaka Khan and The War Machine Rhino.

Another memorable moment came during the Monster’s Ball Tag Team match when special referee Steve ‘Mongo’ McMichael spanked Jaqueline out of the ring after she jumped his back.

WWE Women’s Title Match: Beth Phoenix © w/Santino vs. Candice Michelle

This was a good matchup who’s only weakness was the length that it ran at less than five minutes.

Beth Phoenix defeated Candice Michelle with a Glam Slam to retain, with a little help from her boyfreind, Santino Marella. Candice had Phoenix early in the match, but Santino jumped in to prevent the pinfall. Candice responded with a hard kick to Santino and Beth became distracted by Santino as well.

After the near pin, Beth dominated the rest of the match, targeting Candice’s clavicle, which had been broken in October 2007 in a previous match against Beth.

Although Candice had been positive about her chances against Beth going into the match, it was Beth who backed up words with action at No Mercy.

Winner: Beth Phoenix @ 4:30 via pin

Santino pulls Beth out of the ring to save her from losing the match.
