The Divas of Doom was a professional wrestling tag team in WWE, which consisted of Beth Phoenix and Natalya. Phoenix and Natalya first began teaming together when the latter was Divas Champion and was feuding with LayCool in late September 2010. In August 2011, both women turned villainous and developed the character of anti-Divas, who were violently opposed to the acceptance of "cute", "perky", "Barbie doll" women in the company. Their slogan of "Pin-Up Strong" was also the name of their submission maneuver. ==History== In late 2010, following the split of Natalya's stable The Hart Dynasty, Natalya set her sights on LayCool (Michelle McCool and Layla) and the WWE Divas Championship. After coming up short twice due to LayCool's machinations, Natalya finally defeated the duo in a handicap match for the Divas Championship at the Survivor Series pay-per-view. She was attacked after the match by LayCool, but Beth Phoenix, returning from an injury she'd suffered in May which was credited to LayCool, made the save and then congratulated Natalya.〔 From there, the two formed an alliance against LayCool, and at the TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs pay-per-view in December, Phoenix and Natalya defeated Lay-Cool in the first Divas tag team tables match in WWE history.〔〔 The alliance quietly ended a month later when Natayla lost the Divas Championship to Eve Torres at the Royal Rumble, and went back to competing exclusively on the ''Raw'' brand. On the August 1, 2011, episode of ''Raw'', both women competed in a battle royal to determinate who would receive a Divas Championship match against Kelly Kelly at the SummerSlam pay-per-view. Phoenix won the match, then turned villainous by attacking Kelly, and stated "() days as the perky, cute, blonde little bimbo are officially over." Four days later on ''SmackDown'', Natalya defeated her protégé AJ, and afterwards attacked AJ before telling Phoenix, "I'm with you sister. The days of the cute perky little princesses are over." Phoenix and Natalya officially debuted together as "The Divas of Doom" on the August 12 episode of ''SmackDown'', defeating AJ and Kaitlyn, who they continued to assault after the match.〔 Natalya then accompanied Phoenix to her Divas Championship match at the SummerSlam pay-per-view against Kelly Kelly, who was accompanied by Eve Torres, but she failed to win the match. On the September 5 episode of ''Raw'', Phoenix defeated Eve Torres to earn another title shot at the Night of Champions pay-per-view, where she again lost. On the September 19 episode of ''Raw'', the Divas of Doom lost a tag team match to Kelly Kelly and Eve Torres after Eve pinned Natalya for the win. On the September 26 episode of ''Raw'', Phoenix pinned Kelly Kelly in a tag team match to earn another title shot at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view. On the September 30 edition of ''SmackDown'', Natalya lost a match to Kelly. Following the match, Phoenix jumped into the ring and delivered a Glam Slam to Kelly, then Natalya applied their new submission, Pin-Up Strong. At Hell in a Cell, Phoenix defeated Kelly Kelly with help from Natalya, winning her first WWE Divas Championship. At the Vengeance pay-per-view, Phoenix defeated Eve to retain the Divas Championship. At the Survivor Series pay-per-view, Natalya accompanied Phoenix to a successful lumberjill Divas Championship match against Eve Torres. On January 29, 2012, at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, the Divas of Doom competed in an eight-woman tag team match alongside The Bella Twins, and defeated the team of Eve Torres, Kelly Kelly, Alicia Fox, and Tamina. The next night on the January 30 episode of ''Raw'', Phoenix successfully defended her Divas Championship against Eve. At the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, Phoenix successfully defended her championship against Tamina. Following the match, Phoenix and Natalya quietly split. On the March 22 episode of ''Superstars'', Phoenix teamed with Eve Torres against Natalya and Tamina, with Phoenix's team winning the match, effectively ending the team.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Divas of Doom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
