MITB (Momentum Isn’t Totally Buried?) Ladder Match
Christian vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Evan Bourne vs. Jack Swagger vs. Kane vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Matt Hardy vs. MVP vs. Shelton Benjamin
Welcome to Clusterf@#k Central. Ten men, all fighting for one briefcase hanging above the ring.
The winner of this match will get a shot at the World/WWE Title. That stipulation gives us a reasonably good indication of who won’t be winning this match.
Here’s the rundown on the participants and their respective odds (or lack thereof) of winning MITB.
Shelton Benjamin
He’s won championships in WWE numerous times, with his biggest prize to ...
Why a John Cena Win at Wrestlemania May Cost the WWE Their Future
On March - 28 - 2010
In the WWE, there are two options. Become a heel or a face. When it comes to John Cena though, well I'm pretty sure we know where the once "Doctor of Thuganomics" stands with the WWE Universe.
The fans however, tell a different story when referring to John Cena. You only have to watch tape of the sold-out Hammerstein Ballroom in 2006 to realise that John Cena has his fair share of haters along with admirers.
Thankfully, one of his haters happens to be "The Animal" Batista, and when it comes to rivalries, this one has only just developed overnight but also ...
Vickie Guerrero Showed Her “True Colors” Thanks to Beth Phoenix
On March - 28 - 2010
I had a great time watching Smackdown Friday Night and I am glad that I did. Why you ask? Well, because of the five-on-one women's handicap match.
This match wasn't suppose to be a handicap match, no siree Bob. In fact, this match was ridiculous, but it ended up being hilarious.
It all started when the Glamazon put her hands on the official consltant to the GM of Smackdown. God only knows how she ever got that job, I don't even want to think about it.
Anyways Beth Phoenix apologized over and over again. She did it last week on Smackdown and in ...
Wrestlemania: Picks, Analysis, Commentary, Snarkiness
On March - 28 - 2010
Hey everyone. Sorry for dropping off the face of the Earth in recent weeks (wait, what’s that, you didn’t notice? Hey, where are you going? Come back here!), but the prospect of Wrestlemania coming up so soon makes me want to share my thoughts.
I know, I know, another Wrestlemania prediction piece? True, but let’s face it – it’s fun to pretend to analyze and talk at length about something that’s been decided for quite some time now. Plus, hey, no celebrity matches this year. Maybe this show will be focused on, hey, wrestling!
To make this a bit more interesting I’ll ...
My Top 10 WrestleMania Moments
On March - 28 - 2010
It’s that time again. WrestleMania, the biggest event in wrestling. As such, we should, as we always seem to do, look at the history of WrestleMania.
It was not very hard to come up with a number of moments, but it was incredibly hard to sort them out, pick out 10, and then arrange them in order of great to greatest. So, here they are: 10) Mick Foley main events a WrestleMania
If there’s anyone that you can admire more for their contributions to this business, you would only be able count them on one hand.
Mick Foley had done anything and ...
If Christian Were To Win MITB, He Would Cash It in on Dave Batista
On March - 28 - 2010
It was only six years ago, at Wrestlemania 20, that Chris Benoit finally had captured his first World Heavyweight Championship. As soon as Triple H tapped to the Crippler Crossface, Benoit's music hit and the crowd had gone absolutely crazy. Then as soon as the camera angle switched back to the ring, you could see Eddie Guerrero with his WWE Championship, giving Chris Benoit a hug, celebrating Benoit's victory in the ring. This was one of the most genuine moments that I had ever seen in the WWE, and had almost brought me to tears (not really, but ...
Jake ‘The Snake’…One of the Main Reasons for Stone Cold Steve Austin’s Success
On March - 27 - 2010
The stage was Wrestlemania 13, Bret Hart vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin in a submission match, with Ken Shamrock as the special guest ref.
The match ended with Austin in the sharpshooter, passed out, bleeding profusely.
Austin had lost the match, but everyone says that match was what put Austin over, starting his rise to fame.
If you read any other article that involves that match, it will say either the exact same thing or something quite similar on the matter.
Well I'm not here to disagree. I do think that was one of the main things that did start Austin's success.
But what everyone ...
Sheamus: Chronological Rise of the Celtic Warrior
On March - 27 - 2010
June 30, 2009 (ECW)
The formerly unknown wrestler first appeared on ECW.
Before beginning his match he grabbed the mic and spoke a few words in a rare language, introducing himself as Sheamus—a monstrous redhead from Ireland that had "come to take ECW as his own."
He went on that night to destroy a local competitor. His cocky attitude made him a heel in the eyes of the fans.
In the following months he continued making appearances on the show, defeating local competitors and well-known wrestlers like Goldust and Shelton Benjamin, thus earning some reputation and hype.
Oct. 26, 2009 (RAW)
Sheamus appeared on RAW for the ...

Jordan Getting Press
Orlando Jordan has received some positive press from bi-sexual news outlets for him doing a bi-sexual gimmick in TNA.

Wrestlemania 26: Who Will Win It All
On March - 27 - 2010
So here we go. More Wrestlemania predictions.
I would also like to add that this is my first time writing on here, so here goes.
Chris Jericho vs. Edge WHC
This match will be a hard contest for both Edge and Jericho. Both superstars have gotten the upper hand in recent weeks while building up to this match. Personally I would've loved to see a no holds barred match between these two, but the Hart-McMahon match kind of took care of that.
Expect at least 20-30 minutes of two counts and maybe even some submissions from Edge, just to surprise Jericho. Edge will ...
