Women's Champion Michelle McCool vs. Mickie James

After coming to SmackDown by way of the tri-brand Divas trade, Mickie James started out strong with a win over Layla in her debut match on Oct. 23.

However, ever since, Women’s Champion Michelle McCool and Layla have set out to make Mickie’s life miserable.

On the Nov. 13 edition of SmackDown, Mickie looked to be on her way to beating Natalya. However before Mickie could get the pinfall, the devious duo of Michelle and Layla appeared at ringside and proceeded to destroy Mickie’s ring attire with a pair of scissors. The distraction not only cost Mickie the match, but delivered a lingering, emotional blow.

The very next week on SmackDown, Michelle and Layla were at it again. After Mickie soundly defeated Layla, Michelle’s personalized version of “Old McDonald” was played on the arena video screen. In the denigrating video, Michelle mocked Mickie, calling her “Piggie James.” The insulting stunt left Mickie crying in the ring.
Finally, at Survivor Series, Mickie earned a measure of revenge when Team Mickie defeating Team Michelle in a Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match.
After Survivor Series, things really started going Mickie's way.

On the Dec. 4 edition of SmackDown, she beat both Beth Phoenix and Natalya in a Triple Threat Match to become the No. 1 contender for the Women’s Championship.
Then in a final push for momentum, on the last SmackDown before WWE TLC, Mickie & Maria beat Michelle & Layla when Mickie pinned Layla.

Now, Mickie has an opportunity for ultimate revenge – dethroning Michelle and capturing the Women’s Championship.

Find out who will prevail at the very first WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs event, live on pay-per-view on Sunday, Dec. 13.
