Wrestlemania 21
I can't believe they are up to Wrestlemania 21 now! I still remember when they were promoting Wrestlemania 3 with Hulk Hogan versus Andre the Giant. In the past year, Chris has gotten me back into watching "professional" WWE wrestling again -- it's kinda cheesy, but it's too entertaining. You know what they say, it's a soap opera for guys, hehe. I was just watching Monday Night RAW tonight while having a late dinner and I was cracking up at the "Nature Boy" Ric Flair getting schooled by "The Animal" Batista. I still can't believe the Nature Boy is still wrestling after all this time -- he was around when I was a kid! So, for those of you interested, Wrestlemania 21 features:
Matches
Triple H versus Batista for the World Heavyweight Championship
John Bradshaw Layfield (JBL) versus John Cena for the WWE Championship
Kurt Angle versus Shawn Michaels (HBK)
Randy Orton versus The Undertaker
Trish Stratus versus Christy Hemme for the Women's Championship
Six-Way Ladder Match with Christian, Edge, Chris Benoit, Shelton Benjamin, Kane, and Chris Jericho
"Rowdy" Roddy Piper(!!) hosting Piper's Pit with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
Hall of Fame Inductees
Hulk Hogan (the one and only)
"Rowdy" Roddy Piper (you know, the kilt guy)
Nikolai Volkoff
Jimmy Hart (yeah, the "Mouth of the South"!!)
"Cowboy" Bob Orton (Randy Orton's dad)
Paul Orndorff
The Iron Sheik
Of course Jerry "The King" Lawlor will be on hand with Jim "J.R." Ross to host. I figure The Rock might show up too, but he might be too busy making movies these days.
So, I think Chris and I have decided we're gonna shell out for this pay-per-view event on Sunday 3 April. All we need now are our fellow wrestling fans to drop by to join in on the festivities (and beer). The only problem is, we don't know any other wrestling fans... but we know they're out there, somewhere. We know because we saw a packed MCI Center in DC when we went to see RAW live last year. (We made it on TV too!) So wrestling fans, come on over, just drop me a line first.
