Returning from injury to capture the Divas Championship at SummerSlam, Melina has every reason to be in a celebratory mood these days. However, SmackDown’s resident “mean girls,” Women’s Champion Layla and McCool, have bullied the Latina lovely over the past several weeks with a series of verbal and physical assaults. When Team Lay-Cool revealed they had a surprise in store for Melina on Raw’s 900th episode celebration, the Divas Champ was justifiably skeptical.

Confronting Melina with a dose of their infamously candid “real talk,” Lay-Cool accused the Diva of being “forgettable,” proposing a Championship Unification Match at Night of Champions to determine the most deserving titleholder in the Divas division. Either Michelle or Layla would battle Melina, and the winner would leave Night of Champions with both the Women’s and the Divas Championships, unifying the titles for the first time in history.

Melina accepted the challenge, but given Lay-Cool’s inclination to bend the rules, the Divas Champion demanded that every WWE Diva on the roster be at ringside as lumberjills to ensure that this is indeed a fair fight – a near-foreign concept to the cunning “Co-Women’s Champs.”

But since the challenge, things may not have been so flawless in the Lay-Cool camp. Just two days before Night of Champions, the duo could not decide who would face Melina. The solution? Have newest SmackDown Superstar and WWE NXT season two winner Kaval draw names from a hat. After Michelle’s name was drawn, Layla realized every piece of paper in the hat had Michelle’s name on it. Furious, Layla vowed not to be there for Michelle at Night of Champions.

Can Melina unify the Divas and Women’s Titles? Or will Michelle bring all the glory home to Friday nights? Find out by tuning in to Night of Champions, Sept. 19, only on pay-per-view.

Later, in order to determine which member of Team Lay-Cool would face Divas Champion Melina in a Lumberjill Unification Match at this Sunday’s pay-per-view, Michelle proposed to Layla that Kaval pick a name out of a hat. After Michelle won the right to face Melina, Kaval discovered that Michelle’s name was on every piece of paper in the hat. This infuriated the English-born Diva, who said that Michelle would “stand alone” this Sunday.

Michelle McCool and Layla come out and Michelle introduces the man who is number one in their hearts and they bring out Kaval.

There is an elimination now and the first one eliminated tonight is Alex Riley.

Matt Striker is in the ring with Michael and Kaval. He has then stand face to chin and they will get to say why the other should be eliminated and why they should win.

Michael asks if Kaval is Michelle and Layla’s adopted ninja baby. He tells Kaval that this isn’t a swimming pool, so why is he wearing a wet suit. Michael points out that it took 13 years to make it so how will he make it any further. He calls Kaval a ‘flute’ and then he says that no matter how you like it . . .buzzer goes of and Michael is out of time.

Kaval tells Michael that he was trained by Harley Race and is a third generation Superstar. He was set up perfectly. Kaval says that he came from a hard working middle class family. He is a hard working guy from New York. Kaval says that it took him 13 years to get here, but he has earned his respect around the world. He sacrificed his blood, sweat, and tears to be in the ring with the likes of Eddie Guerrero.

Michael and Kaval have their final chance for some trash talking and we go to commercial.
