– World Wrestling Entertainment officials are said to be down on former Divas champion Mickie James. According to sources, her recent weight gain and work rate are the main problems. While she's arguably still very attractive and in great shape, she's held to a very high standard as a WWE diva. She has put on some weight (mostly visible in her abs & lower body) and it hasn't gone unnoticed. Additionally, the quality of her matches have been sliding and she is no longer seen as the "reliable hand" that she once was. There have been various Internet reports this week that James is frustrated with the way she's been booked as of late.
