Melina's thoughts on WWE, Ex-Divas not happy with talent in WWE,

[Andrew]

Last Monday, the Superstars of Raw voted "no confidence" in WWE Chief Operating Officer Triple H's leadership of WWE's flagship brand. Former WWE Women's Champion Melina has weighed in on the matter as a fan asked her on Twitter tonight during Raw if she herself would have walked out.

Melina responds (which she later challenged the "dirt sheets" to publish): "I don't watch the show but this is my take, I would have walked out on the people who tell lies to the WWE Universe who say they fight for them and that they are trying to make a change but they aren't trying at all.

"That "1%" who are only out for themselves and don't care who they step on to get there do not have my respect. I'd walk out on those hypocrites but that has nothing to do with the fans. I would walk out on the people strangling the art of wrestling because The Fans DESERVE to see the talent they love get opportunities! The WWE Universe DESERVES to see The BEST in sports entertainment which is not being provided. I would walk out on those who are keeping the Fans from getting that.

"As I said before, I do not watch so I don't know what the story lines are or what's going on. I'm just pretending what I would do in an imaginary scenario that has lots of truth behind it."

Melina continued airing her grievances as she further explained why she no longer watches WWE programming.

"I don't watch because I know that everyone is kept from what they are capable of. There's so much talent being held back," she wrote to a fan. "I used to watch as a fan. Knowing what I know, it hurts to watch my friends not be able to do what they are capable of doing."

She added further, "I do believe the fans deserve 2C what THEY want & not be told what they "should" C. Stop playing & give the fans what they want!"

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

* Last week's Raw kicked off with Drew McIntyre competing in his first singles match on WWE's flagship program in several months, against Randy Orton. The hosts pondered why the Scottish wrestler is not receiving a greater push considering that he possesses extraordinary talent.

Maria cryptically says, "I have a feeling he's paid for someone else's sins, problems, because Drew's really good. I'd love to see him do more stuff, but it's unfortunate that that happens."

Another WWE Superstar in the same precarious situation is John Morrison, whose promotion has significantly leveled off since the spring. Lilian pondered later in the show, "I really wonder why he's not getting a push?"

Maria explains, "I think it's a lot of complications of outside stuff. I think that a lot of times they go with who's going to be there, who's always going to be there, who's going to be the easiest. He's very easy and I love him to pieces, but I think it's outside complications. I think that's why."

* Lilian, who handled ring announcing duties for Raw for ten years, explained why it's been difficult for her to watch the show since leaving WWE in 2009.

She says, "I actually really attempted to watch a show and my stomach was in knots. I did watch WrestleMania, and I tweeted along and it was great, the fans were tweeting right back, it ended up trending worldwide, it was crazy, it was awesome. However, just watching a regular Monday Night Raw, my stomach was in knots, and it was in knots tonight. It's just that thing of, "Wow, I really did leave."

"It was my part for ten years. It's funny because it's ten years and it seems like it was more because you live and breath it every single day and every single week. You don't have any down time, and so it's been hard to watch an episode."

She continued, "So it's not like I didn't like it or didn't want to, it's really one of those things where it was sad that I left but at the same time I know I made the right decision."

Melina is an idiot. She is the one that screwed up Morrison's push. He was so whipped by her that he cost himself a mainevent spot. Hopefully he leaves her, gets his head straight and achieves what he should achieve in the WWE rather than walking away.

It is unfortunate that these wrestlers are being hampered by their partners but in the end the wrestlers got themselves into these situations by dating these women. They can easily leave them if they want a proper push at their job without crazy women ruining it for them.

I agree with your second paragraph Troy, but not your first one.

Its easy to call her an idoit, but don't you think a lot of what she said is true? WWE did promise a fresh start under HHH, there seemed to be fresh ideas, storylines, feuds, pushes, but since Summerslam all those things have gone out of the window. To be honest I don't see a lot of difference between todays WWE and 2008's for example. Melina speaks the truth, she maybe bitter, but she makes a lot of sense.

I was making a generalisation about Melina and wasn't referring directly to what she wrote. She is simply crazy for the way she handled herself near the end of WWE and the icing on the cake was when she went on the road with Morrison the weekend after she was fired. That is career suicide and clearly hurt Morrison's push.

Melina used to be fantastic when she was the manager of MNM but I think that the success went to her head.
