Heat on MNM for no apparent reason

[Skippord]

There is heat on Johnny Nitro and Melina of MNM in regard to the SmackDown! locker room right now. The boys backstage feel Nitro is growing distant from everyone in the locker room since he is dating Melina. It seems that Nitro is always by Melina's side instead of being with the boys. As is almost common knowledge, WWE locker rooms have unwritten codes of conduct and all the boys, especially veterens like Undertaker and JBL, believe in them strongly and Nitro seems to be breaking one of those rules by ignoring the boys and spending so much time with Melina.

It's been said that Joey Matthews has realized this and has started to distance himself from the other two in fear of getting the same eventual treatement from the locker room. Apparently, Melina has the most of the heat of the two as she is constantly trying to make trouble and may have had a hand in the Booker-Batista fiasco. One person backstage even predicted that if things don't change immediately, they will be JBL's new target and if the Palmer Cannon incident didn't shed light on this, no one wants to be JBL's target backstage.

Even more, because of this and the momentum Brian Kendrick & Paul London, it seems that Judgment Day is as good a time as any for MNM to drop the titles. What lies in the future for MNM after that is unknown, but mid-carders who have heat in the locker room rarely get far in WWE.
