11. Mickie James vs. LayCool - WWE Woman's Title (Royal Rumble 2010)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyKnsRzeg1c Ah, the conclusion to the offensive and much-reviled Piggy James storyline. Maybe its just coincidence that WWEs Be a STAR program launched about a year after the LayCool bullying of James took place. It was simply a bad idea to have a twig of a girl lecturing Mickie about her appearance. After enduring months of insults, Mickie finally got her revenge at the 2010 Royal Rumble when she defeated Michelle McCool in 22 seconds to win the Womens Championship. There were exactly three offensive moves in this match: an errant McCool kick to Layla, a James kick to McCool and a Mickie-DT. Afterward, she slammed a cake in LayCools faces to really put an exclamation point on the feud.
