User blog:CEDJunior/Divas Championship @ Extreme Rules 2015

In just two days, the Extreme Rules PPV will take place in the Windy City, and among other things, the Divas Championship will be on the line, as Nikki Bella will defend her title against the new, improved, and villainous Naomi! How did this happen? Here's the backstory.

The Bellas were coming off WrestleMania XXXI, where they were defeated by AJ Lee and Paige in a heavily hyped tag team bout. The twins luck got worse when Nikki was pinned on back-to-back editions of Raw on March 30 and April 6 in tag team matches, both times by Naomi. The first win came in a six-Diva bout with AJ and Paige as Naomi's partners against the Bellas and the sometimes good, sometimes evil Natalya. The second was a tag team bout with Paige as Naomi's partner against the twins. With that, it seemed like a foregone conclusion that Naomi would get a title opportunity down the line. As the legendary Lee Corso often says, "Not so fast, my friend."

The date:  April 13. The city:  London, England. A heavily hyped #1 Contender's Battle Royal took place, and after the dust settled, it was down to Paige and Naomi as the final two. However, it would be Paige who emerged victorious in her homeland by eliminating Naomi. After the match, Paige gave an emotional speech about her journey to becoming a WWE Diva, becoming Divas Champion, and competing at WrestleMania for the first time. At that moment, Naomi turned into a villainess and attacked Paige both in and out of the ring, and later gave her own interview stating that she's tired of being held back and waiting for opportunities to come. WWE.com reported that Paige was injured by Naomi's attack, but we all know that she's being written off to film WWE Studios' latest movie, Santa's Little Helper, with The Miz.

So with Paige out, a new foregone conclusion came to light:  Naomi replacing Paige as Nikki's opponent at Extreme Rules, which is exactly what happened. On this week's shows, the evil Naomi picked up victories over Brie Bella (on Raw) and Natalya (on SmackDown), while putting her new heel character to work on both programs. As a result of this, the Bellas have pretty much turned face, especially Nikki, who was in babyface mode on commentary on Raw.

Naomi should win the Divas Championship on Sunday. In fact, I've come up with two possible ways she could win. One, Cameron could enter and help Naomi win, or two (and I really hope this happens), Brie could cost Nikki as payback for SummerSlam. Either way, I can't wait for Sunday!
