Lita's music hit in the arena and she made her way out to the ring for a Women's Battle Royal to determine the number one contender for the WWE Women's Championship at Backlash. The contestants included Lita, Jazz, Nidia, Molly Holly, Stacy Keibler, Gail Kim and Trish Stratus.

RAW went to a commercial break before the match started and after the commercial break, we joined the match in progress with everyone being eliminated except for Trish Stratus, Jazz and Lita. Jazz attempted to pull Lita out of the ring but Lita held onto the ropes and kicked Jazz down from the ring apron and to the arena floor to eliminate her from the match, leaving the match with Trish Stratus and Lita.

Trish extended her hand to Lita to shake but Lita refused and instead slapped Trish across the face. Trish returned the favor with a slap of her own and then Lita nailed Trish with a series of right hands until Trish raked the eyes of Lita. As the match was going on, Chris Jericho made his way out to the ringside area and watched on as Trish and Lita went at it.

As the two referees were distracted by Jazz, Trish Stratus went off the ropes and Chris Jericho tripped her up and then Lita gave Trish a drop kick to send her through the ropes to the arena floor to end the match with Lita earning the right to go to Backlash against Victoria for the Women's Championship. Chris Jericho was extremely pleased with his actions as he had a huge smile on his face as he left the ringside area.

Later, Trish Stratus was shown backstage with Christian and she was angered about what Jericho did and Christian told her to calm down, he has a match. Christian told her to forget the battle royal because she can't have two matches in one night anyway. Last week, when he said they have the match, he got the match with Chris Jericho against Christian and Trish Stratus in a Handicap match. Trish didn't seem to want to be a part of it but Christian told her to calm down because he has a match.  [PowerWrestling.com]

WWE has updated a statement released Wednesday; they have released an additional 3 superstars. The following was issued today via WWE.com:

The WWE released Johnny Stamboli, Rodney Mack, Jazz, Gail Kim, Chuck Palumbo and Nidia from their contracts today. We wish them the best in their future endeavors. As we reported earlier, the WWE locker room is on edge right now. The only explanation given thus far is that all of the firings were financially related. [Henry Walk, rajah.com]

----- We are being told that the talent cuts are being done directly from Talent Relations. Most of the company's employees are finding out people are released when they read it on WWE.com. Vince McMahon decides who will be cut and then calls Johnny "Ace". Ace's department then makes the calls to the wrestlers and informs them of their releases. [Jared Strunk, WrestlingWire.net]


12/03/04 Internet News
The release of Gail Kim was said to be the second most criticized roster cut by WWE, only behind the dismissal of Test, who many felt should have been retained if only for the reason that he’s still injured. It is believed that WWE only spent two days deciding whether to cut her not because she was actually involved in an angle on the 11/2 RAW with a partly new outfit. [Rajah.com]

WebMaster's Note: I did find her release to be a real surprise.  The WWE announced her signing 6 months before she appeared (she apparently had visa problems) and then in her debut she won the title in a Battle Royal match that involved Ivory, Jazz, Molly, Jacqueline and Trish, and she won! (Which I strongly complained about.)  It seemed obvious that the WWE was pushing Gail for all she was worth.

In her appearances since her early 2003 debut she has been a solid performer and an asset to the women's ranks.

Gail Kim spoke on her WWE firing and other subjects on "The Gerwick Report" this week.  For a recap of this interview - Click Here.
