Should Medusa return to the WWE

Should Medusa return to the WWE

By Carlos M Reynoss

Debrah Ann Miceli; also known as Alundra Blayze in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) or even better know in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) as Medusa. Has been campaigning herself in the wrestling media to encourage the WWE have her wrestle the Diva’s champion Beth Phoenix. Medusa believes that the WWE creative team hasn’t been promoting Beth or the Diva’s division properly and feels she would be a good challenge for the Glamazon. However, because of Vince McMahon’s mood swings and Medusa’s incident with the WWE. No one is sure if they would agree to her idea.

For those who are unaware of the history between Medusa and the WWE, Medusa was at the time in World Wrestling Federation (WWF) under Alundra Blayze. In December 1993 she became the face of the woman’s division by becoming the first Woman’s champion in over 3 years. However, in 1995 Blayze was given a better offer and jumped to WCW. Blayze or Medusa at this point was still the WWF’s Woman’s Champion but instead of relinquishing the title back to the WWF, she publicly dropped the title in a trash can on television. Medusa’s incident not only disrespected the WWF, but it caused the woman’s division to be inactive for three years. After this, Medusa was blacklisted from what is now WWE, a company that holds 90% of the media.

Years have pass, and Vince McMahon has been known to forgive wrestlers that have wrong him in the past.  However, should he allow her back in the WWE for one night? It would be  great to bring closure into this matter and the storyline would be interesting to watch. A wrestler from the past who never lost the belt against today’s dominant champion would be interesting on paper.The divas champion responded to Medusa's taunt with taunts of her won, but hasn't given an offical answer to the challenge.  But how interesting would be in today’s audience who is too young to remember of either Medusa or Alundra Blyaze. One must consider the match itself, what type of shape is Medusa in? Logically she can’t perform the way she used to in the 90s, but can she perform enough to entertain the audience.

And then there are audience that does remember, the bloggers that have their opinion on this matter. Will they accept this storyline or reject it with passion? Personally I would believe this something new to watch in the diva’s division. But what do you think?
