Match: Jeff Jarrett w Debra McMichael Vs Golga w The Oddities

After Debra had made her debut on the previous episode of RAW, Debra accompanied Jeff Jarrett for a singles match against a member of The Oddities, the giant Golga. Debra wore a less revealing brown business suit but still showed plenty of leg as she looked to manage Jeff Jarrett to a win.

Jeff Jarrett looked to use his speed to hit and run against his much larger opponent and in a fairly back and forth bout full of pauses it was Golga who eventually used his power advantage to have Jeff...

Match: Debra Vs Sable - Evening Gown Match

With the Corporate Ministry taking over the WWF, its dispicable leader Shane McMahon was on hand to book some matches. To quote him "for his own personal amusement" he decided to have the WWF Women's Champion Sable take on Debra in an Evening Gown match with the loser being the first to lose their gown and be stripped to their bra and panties.

This was a non title match and later on RAW we saw Debra in a sleek evening gown walking in the back and then to a big cheer make...

Debra at the Royal Rumble!

When: 24th January 1999
Show: Raw
Match: Royal Rumble Match

With the ongoing rivalry between Mr McMahon and Stone Cold Steve Austin dominating proceedings, the Royal Rumble match was somewhat of a side show for all the other participants.

With Debra at his side, Jeff Jarrett was entrant number 27. With his manager going straight to the back areas, Jeff had to rely on himself to win the match and after not eliminating anyone he himself was eliminated by Triple H ending his hopes of winning the Royal Rumble match!

The silver lining for Jeff Jarrett and Debra would show itself 24 hours later on RAW!

Hand in hand, Jeff Jarrett & Debra!

posted by Osk2010

Ivory who was recently inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame was Debra's chief rival at the height of her WWE popularity in 1999.

Their feud was fun but it was somewhat stop start so I'm going to re-imagine it if I was in the writing team in 1999.

It makes changes to certain events with the feud finishing later in the year but I won’t say when!

This is just for fun :)

The night after Rock Bottom where Debra had certainly got some big attention after performing a live striptease that had very nearly gone all the way! Shawn Michaels on that show had reversed the original match result which meant Debra had to go through with the agreed stipulations if Goldust beat Jeff Jarrett.

With many more eyes on Debra now she accompanied Jeff Jarrett to face Steve Blackman in a strange set up of the Guitar on a Pole match.

WWF Women's Champion Debra was scheduled to defend her title on this episode of RAW against the huge female bodybuilder Nicole Bass in what on paper looked like a foregone conclusion given the gulf of size and strength advantage that Nicole would have against Debra who wasn't really known for much fighting wise beyond a slap!

Debra however smartly used the rule that she had 30 days to defend the title to avoid this certain quick and painful beat down at the hands of Nicole and instead challenged...

The commish spoke of the non-title match between Angle and Triple H, and the No. 1 contenders match between Jericho and Rock, with the winner to face Angle on SmackDown! Foley said that his job was a lot harder than he thought, and that it was a job too big for him. He said he had loved being the commissioner, and it was a dream come true.

Jeff Jarrett and Owen Hart were beginning to rise up the ranks of the tag team division in the World Wrestling Federation thanks to some recent victories including a non title win over the then Champions, Ken Shamrock and The Big Bossman but much of that success was down to the managerial talents of the lovely Debra.

After months off our television screens, Debra made her first major appearance of the new millennium for WWE by making a surprise return at the beginning of the pay per view to warm applause from the fans who clearly had not forgotten the "Puppies"!

She was here to introduce the teams for the opening match for the WWF Tag Team Championship between the defending champs Edge & Christian taking on DX Members, X-Pac and Road Dogg Jesse James accompanied by Tori.

After this night we wouldn't see Debra again until October later in the year as she was off screens spending time with the recovering Steve Austin who also made an appearance in the Main Event between The Rock and Triple H!

For the first time since being a guest ring announcer at the Backlash pay per view event back in April Debra returned to our screens.

Walking backstage she was greeted by Chyna who had a discussion about Debra's honeymoon and Chyna's recent engagement to Eddie Guerrero.

Debra was here to see Commissioner Mick Foley.

After Chyna told Debra where Mick Foley was and Debra mentioning she didn't know where Eddie was the new Mrs Austin went off to find Mick Foley.

Meeting with Mick in his office, Mick Foley suggested that Debra might have had something to do with the hit and run car accident that happened to Stone Cold the previous year so that she could spend more time with him. Debra passionately defended herself against such claims and stormed out of the room.

D'Lo Brown decided to do something about this and in the ring before his match against Jeff Jarrett he decided to give Mark Henry some eye candy to look at that wasn't Debra. He introduced a lady known...
