Why Beth Phoenix Deserved More Than She Received at the End

[Lady Deathbane]

In a backstage segment shorter than most commercial breaks, Vickie Guerrero fired "The Glamazon" Beth Phoenix, writing the last chapter of Phoenix's WWE career.

As WWE's best female wrestler for much of her tenure with the company, she deserved more than that for her farewell.

Being written out of Raw is expected, but not in a way that felt so much like an afterthought.

No one is confusing Phoenix for Shawn Michaels or Ric Flair, so going out at WrestleMania was never an option, but there had to be a way to honor her work with something a little more grand, something more significant.

She didn't even put over a young star on her way out.

Informed fans knew of Phoenix's impending departure long before it happened. Wrestlinginc.com reported that Phoenix would be leaving the company in October and retiring from wrestling. Word got out.

No one can blame her for wanting to leave.

My friend had sent me this article and it pissed me off a bit. I had heard previously that Beth was only fired due to kayfabe and was coming back eventually because her and Edge just needed more time together or something along the lines. Turns out that was possibly a cover. Damn.... I would've really enjoyed that ladder match too.

I hate this - Divas works as hard as the men, they need more respect. (

Of course she deserved a better way to go out. Everybody knows she is one of two of the best Divas in the WWE. They way they took out wasn't the best way and could have been a lot better. She didn't even put AJ over, she just got a cheap rematch win. WWE doesn't give a fuck about the Divas, so it doesn't surprise me anyway. What surprises me is that she got any screen time anyways.

She is arguably the best ever WWE diva, she definitely needed something better. However, with the current division, would anyone care anyway?

I care only because i had a huge crush on her. Lita and Beth are the two best i've ever seen

Beth is hot, I agree. The outfit she was wearing the day she was "fired" was awesome .

Beth deserved more? For doing freaking what, exactly?
