Layla El: Do Her Powers Work Under Our Yellow Sun?

12:31 am EST August 16th, 2006 | News | 8 Comments

I’m pretty sure that I’ve mentioned that I am a regular watcher of Vince McMahon’s fine television programming (man cannot live on PBS alone), specifically WWE Raw (which suffers for the loss of consumate performer Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who now brings home the bacon via Hollywood, Rudy Poos and all) and as such, Mr. McMahon brings us choice entertainment beyond his core wrestling product. In traditionally subtle McMahon style, he will be presenting “The Sexiest Woman On Television” on Wednesday Night. But its really just the end cap on the faux-reality “Diva Search” competition, which makes American Idol look positively quaint by comparison (a musical chairs competiton, bikinis included, was part of the “contest”). So we have to ask: why isn’t all of television in the WWE mold? Why must we suffer through yet another sitcom or CSI: Okoboji, Iowa when there is so much more that can be done with the medium?

As a commenter pointed out, Layla (pictured below) has the last name of El. Clearly she is Kryptonian, and not just any Kryptonian but one in the house of El. She has clearly gotten to the finals via the clever usage of alien mind tricks (and knowledge of Klurkor, which are martial arts, only on Krypton – I kid you not, and if it ever comes up on Jeopardy I will win).

    Bah! I’ll see your Layla El and raise you a Dina Al-Sabah. From Planet Kuwait, I believe.

    Good to see that McMahon is branching out, though. Diversification is the key to success.

    I can’t believe you are a wrestling fan. Oh well, we all have our faults.

    What are you going to do? What are you going to do when these 24-inch pythons go wild on you?

    It would appear that JT and Jen have been sent to the Phantom Zone. Or was that the Fifth Dimension?

    Given what happened with some of the would-be Divas from other Searches, the latter is more likely, which means that we’ll be seeing them within 90 days.

    (And yes, I know I’m showing my not-entirely-secret shame here.)
