FROM LORDS OF PAIN
In an injury that could affect this Sunday's WrestleMania XXVIII Divas Tag Team Match featuring Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos against Beth Phoenix and Eve, New York Post gossip column Page Six reported Monday that the Menounos broke a rib during a recent dancing rehearsal for Dancing with the Stars.
She broke the rib during a hardcore rehearsal with dance partner Derek Hough, who was teaching her the Cha-cha-cha. A source says, "She has been in excruciating pain for the past few weeks during rehearsals, but she is staying strong and working through it. She refuses to give up."
Page Six adds Menounos is hiding a rib brace underneath her dancing gear.
Menounos confirmed the injury to Extra Monday, the entertainment news program she hosts. She says she suffered two broken ribs during a recent dance rehearsal. She will nonetheless perform on tonight's Dancing with the Stars.

Oh no. What ever shall we do? Someone, get Kharma on the phone, they might have to actually have a Diva's TITLE MATCH at Wrestlemania rather than some pop-hype t'n'a fest...

So wait, she's getting ready to wrestle Phoenix, but she got injured dancing?

Maria is a sweetheart. She does a lot of charity projects, including working a past WWE Tribute To The Troops show for free. It was smart business by Vince to give her a WM role, as she plugged her appearance on Extra and other gigs. Hopefully she'll make a speedy recovery.

If Maria still goes ahead with the match I will have mad respect for her. How many wrestlers over the years have wrestled with broken or bruised rips?

The strength of the WWE roster is evident this WM
Main event features an actor...
Hell In A Cell with an office worker and retired wrestler...
And women's only foray involves a tag match with a dancer...
I'm done!

Oh no. What ever shall we do? you gave me a nice laugh. it's so nice we have the annual diva tag match. it's not like we ever see that on RAW. plus it's so nice for someone like Natalya to sit on the sidelines for WrestleMania and see Menounos or Snooki get a match.

Saw online that Maria will still be competing Sunday...that is unless they do a last minute injury angle and put Natalya in the match, which would make a ton of sense.
