AJ Lee dedicates title win:

She says She payed homage to Eddie Guerrero when winning the Diva's Title...

"That was like my shout-out to him for being my inspiration all these years. He was so funny, and whether he was somebody you wanted to boo or cheer - he was so easily (bad or good), and he didn't really change that much of his style. So funny and sassy and shady. He would just cheat all the time, and it was so goofy."
