Backstage News On Why Miz’s ‘Entourage’ Faction Was Created

Although it has been teased for weeks, The Miz finally was able to get two people to align with him, as Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel joined his “Entourage.” This was after Axel initially declined and Dallas was contemplating backstage, which led to both being the bears during the MizTV segment and attacking Dean Ambrose.

According to the Wrestling Observer, the reason why WWE decided to form the group was because of the newly-debuted duo of “Mike & Maria Kanellis.” Apparently, WWE does not want to have two power couples on opposite brands, which is why Dallas and Axel were added with Miz and Maryse.

Kelly Kelly Diva’s Championship Milestone

Kelly Kelly, along with Maryse and Eve Torres, were the most recent trio on the Table for 3 WWE Network special. The common thread is that they were all former WWE Diva’s Champions.

Today, 6/20/17, marks six years ago that Kelly Kelly won her first, and only, Diva’s title. She defeated Brie Bella on an episode of Raw in 2011.
