Wrestlemania 20 is one of the greatest Wrestlemania's ever in my opinion, outside of a few lackluster matches. The atmosphere, and the electricity that was going on, amazed me. The Undertaker's return is chilling, and I loved the controversial crowd, even if they were dead for a few of the stuff, that they shouldn't have been. Every 10 years, Wrestlemania emanates from The Garden, so this was really special. There were so many great moments. Between Beniot's amazing title win, and Trish's shocking heel turn, it was just a great, riveting show all around, and remains one of my favorite Wrestlemania's.
Matches.
United States Title. John Cena Vs The Big Show|C|. Cena gets a HUGE pop. Entertaining antics from Cena at the start. Crowd is into it, but I couldn't due to all the boredom it was providing. I like both of these guys, but they just don't mix well. Cena wins by ,hitting the Attitude Adjustment.
1/5
Fatal Four Way World Tag Team Championships. Booker.T&RVD Vs Garrison Cade&Mark Jindrak Vs The Dudley Boyz Vs La Resistance. Dudley's get a huge pop. Not bad for it's type, with some exciting spots, especially from Book and RVD. Crowd had trouble getting into it though, and Cade and Jindrak looked lost. Booker and RVD retain.
2 1/2 /5
Christian Vs Chris Jericho. Nice pop for Y2J. Absolutely fabulous match, that ranks among the best of Wrestlemania matches. With these two, you know what your getting, and that's the best. The psychology and mind games from Christian, was great. Christian wins, when Trish seemingly whacks Jericho, by mistake. Trish makes in my opinion, one of the most shocking heel turns in history, by siding with Christian after the match, not only shocking, but amazingly hot.
5/5
Handicap M...
... middle of paper ...
...owd is firmly with Beniot, with lots of "Let's go Beniot" chants, along with some minor "HBK" ones. By far the best match of the night, and dare I say rivals to be the best in Wrestlemania history? it's definitely up there. The 3 just gelled together, you could obviously tell. All 3 poured there hearts into making this match, the classic that it is, with it's unpredictability and non stop excitement. In one of the greatest moments I have ever witnessed, Beniot wins the title, by making Triple H tap out. Beniot and Eddie celebrate afterwords, in a really touching moment.
5/5
Bottom line. Wrestlemania 20 is a great experience, and definitely one of my favorites, for many reasons. It deserves it's praise from all the wrestling fans, and at the time, brought my faith back to wrestling. This is one you need to experience if you haven't. An absolute must see.

would have to say that I might even go see them perform again. Everyone left me with a
The symbols and language used in “Battle Royal” allow readers to understand the concept of being black in America; fighting for equality. Symbols such as the white blindfold, stripper, and battle itself all give a suggestion about how the unnamed protagonist felt, but more importantly, Ralph Ellison’s “Battle Royal” depicts the difficult struggles facing the black man in what’s supposed to be a post-slavery era.
I myself remember that game, I was in my living room with my family watching the game, and David Justice hit a solo home run, the only run of the game. Tom Glavine pitched a great game, I remember being so excited when they won.
On top of that, in the rumble’s beginning, on page 151, in the text is says: “Paul swung- a hard right to the jaw that would have felled anyone but Darry. The rumble was on.” This text right there on page 151 shows that Darry is stronger than others. It says that the blow that hit Darry would have knocked others down if
The crowd roars with a deafening volume that could awaken the dead from their eternal slumber. He explodes through the doors, the crowd's cheers raise to an even higher decibel, as he sprits up to the ring it appears the only thing running through his veins is pure adrenaline, his muscles bulge as he slides into the ring. He rises to he feet, the crowd is still ecstatic, as he lifts his extended middle finger into the air as he screams, "Give me a HELL YEAH!", and the crowd, including people from all walks of life, answers back, "HELL YEAH!" He once held the Heavy Weight Champion belt of the World Wrestling Federation, making him number one, and he believes, and gets his fans to believe, he is still number one. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is a prime candidate for the nomination of a modern day Anglo-Saxon hero. "Stone Cold's" immense physical strength, his courage, and his loyalty would have any Anglo-Saxon by his side.
the end of the third round wins. Free style wrestling is done on a mat,
In the first 20 seconds of the match, I had the first take-down. I was working crossfaces, cheap tilts, and everything else I knew after my takedown. Then, I did what I do best and gave him a swift, hard crossface and cradeled him up. Squeezing with all my strength and might it took about 7 seconds of him being on his back and he was pinned! It took a total of 55 seconds to pin my first opponent at state.
Until the break of 1980, wrestling was primarily a big man's game. Sheer strength and intensity ruled the ring, forcing smaller wrestlers to take the extra leap to make a name for them. The real main-eventers were the Bruno Sammartinos, and the Bob Backlunds, and Killer Kowalskis. Men like Bret"Hitman"Hart, Tito Santana, Ricky Steamboat, and the "Macho King"Randy Savage had to add more excitement to their style due to the lack of strength. What they would devise became the most popular ring structure for over 15 years. Technical wrestling is best characterized by faster, moving confrontations with endurance to the end. A good technical wrestler, such as Bret Hart, will use a series of fast-paced moves that don't take much strength but rather his opponents' momentum. He will use the ropes to give him more speed but he isn't clumsy on the rebound. He's quick to counter just about anything and he definitely isn't afraid of taking his attack to the next level, such as ascending the turnbuckles. He will take risks but he can usually access second and third winds when endurance becomes an issue. The technical wrestler has a keen sense of his surrounding environment, and because he is always alert he usually finds himself controlling the situation.
Can-Am Connection Vs Don Muraco&Bob Orton. Sadly too short, but it's truly excellent for the time it got, and if it went a little longer, it surely could have came close to a 5 * match!. Can-Am prevail with a cross body.
CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, echoes through my head as I walk to the middle of the mat. "At 160lbs Aidan Conner of La Junta vs. Rodney Jones of Hotchkiss." All I can think of is every bead of sweat, every drip of blood, every mile, every push up, every tear. Why? All of this: just to be victorious. All in preparation for one match, six minutes. For some these six minutes may only be a glimpse, and then again for some it may be the biggest six minutes of their life. Many get the chance to experience it more than once. Some may work harder and want it more than others, but they may never get the chance. All they get is a moral victory. Every kid, every man comes into the tournament with a goal. For some is to win, for some is to place, others are just happy to qualify. These six minutes come on a cold frigid night in February at a place called the Pepsi Center. Once a year this gathering takes place when the small and the large, the best of the best, come to compete in front thousands of people. I am at the Colorado State Wrestling Championships.
...ully knowing until you have watched it from the beginning. WWE now have app that you can see all the episodes from the beginning that you can download. This has helped me identify what the end of the attitude era is. I am one of the people that say the era ended after Stone Cold and The Rock left. I say this because after they left, there was no one to question authority as well as Stone Cold did. No one after that cared about what would happen on Monday night Raw. Stone Cold leaving impacted the future of WWF now known as WWE. His leaving caused WWF to change.
...he performance of singers James Brown and B. B. King in Zaire was really stirring. It contains footage of the "black Woodstock" soul music festival accompanying the fight, which highly makes the movie more worth-watching. I liked that the movie shows Ali’s daily life, which makes audience feel that the legend of Box King is a true story more than an old tale. From this movie, I found that Ali is not an undependable god. He is a talent but also common player, that is to say, he had to prepare for the game, and also he had to say something to the journalist as psychological warfare, and of course he had the possibility to win or lose the game. In this movie, Ali is successful, as well Don King. However, this movie is not to show how successful they are, in fact, the director of this movie just try to present the charm of real Boxing Game of the Century. Thus, I think
My visit to this Museum got my skin with goose bumps from the excitement of entering an awesome place that has lots of history, information, and exhibits from my culture and roots. I was enjoying every moment by walking around all those displays, and seeing how everything started here on this side of the border.
