What Stephanie McMahon Is Pushing For, Divas Talk Draft, Hardy Misses Interview

source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter

— Stephanie McMahon is pushing for the creative team to brainstorm some long-term storylines, instead of doing things on pretty much a month-by-month and oftentimes, a week-by-week basis. However, nobody wants to come up with long-term ideas because Vince changes things every week.

— WWE.com has posted a video of the WWE Divas talking about tomorrow night’s Draft. Among those featured in the piece include Lilian Garcia, Maria, Melina, and Jillian Hall. Both Lilian & Maria want to stay on Raw because they consider it home. Lilian has been on Raw since the brand’s inception in April 2002 and she wants to stay there until she’s done with WWE. Maria said, “The draft? So many things can happen. So many exciting things. So many new things. But the one thing I hope doesn’t happen is me leaving RAW. Um, RAW has been my home for four years. I cannot imagine being anywhere else. I’m sure I would make new friends and have exciting adventures over on SmackDown! or ECW but it’s great to feel home – RAW is my home. So I really really hope that I don’t go anywhere.” Melina also added, “I have an emotion of where I’m not worried because I know no matter where I go I’m going to do my best – I’m going to do good. But then I’m also excited because it’s going to be interesting. There’s going to be so many opportunities. Wrestling with different people, interacting with different people. But to tell you the truth? I’m all for going to different shows. I’ve already been on SmackDown! I’ve made appearances on ECW but I’ve never been apart of ECW so that would be interesting. But right now my heart’s at RAW.” {Video link}

They are working on rescheduling the interview as soon as possible. Chris Jericho is scheduled to do an interview tomorrow morning. He will be taking questions from fans.
