Well like everybody me too anxiously waiting for the strat of the Ashes series '06. It is highly surprising to see England team slipp down the performance after winning the Ashes last year. Even though they are the defending champions nobody gives them a chance of even winning a single match, well thats the way English team has performed all these times. But the going by the way Eventhough English team are underdogs if they bat and bowl well in the first test 1st innings who knows Aussies ...
Vince McMahon, who debuts on the Forbes 400 with a net worth of $1.1 billion, has more in common with his superwealthy brethren than you might think. On the surface, the 55-year-old chief executive of the World Wrestling Federation (nasdaq: WWFE) couldn't be more different from the button-down Wall Street financiers and thirty-something billionaire technogeeks who dominate the list. After all, McMahon delivers entertainment that's often violent and sexist. His characters look and sound li...
The Great Khali vs. Undertaker last man standing match for the summer slam will be of great anticipation. With Undertaker's return and Khali's hype the match will enlighten the summer slam. Wrestling industry dying slowly with lack of superstars in the kitty this might well prove to be the match Of the year atlas from people's expectation. Of-course fans might question how come it could be called the most anticipated match when Khali is no match To Undertaker's Ring skill level, it is...
The Wimbledon final 06 was one such classic encounter, which made audience hold their breath till it got over. Long are the days where there use to classic rivalries which we tought got over with Sampras- Aggassi or Aggassi- Rafter era. It was expected from Federar - Roddick , Hewiit- Safin to continue, but sadly none lived to the expectations apart from Federar. When it was said to be monopoly in Tennis just like how William sisters were doing some time back in women tennis it was alwa...
Its 10 years now but still going strong, he deserve to lead the national team for his in & out day after day contribution to change the face of India Cricket, Rahul Dravid. Could have easily started his career with an entry in the record book with a debut century at test in Lords but rather preferred to enter Cricket fans heart by walking off for caught behind appeal at 95 for which Umpire hasn’t raised his finger, incident easily speaks the character of the man. Nicknamed as wall for w...
Not a proper Gimmick A Big Blog in the bloc its how he has to be described for his appearance. Bobby Lashley is one big time body builder. Erupted in the scene late last year and improved his wrestling skill ever since that. He might easily be the future WWE, but his public appeal hasn’t improved even-though his performances are. Has got a good finisher in the form of Dominator but still his gimmick and the role he plays in WWE doesn’t underline his presence, even the screen play writers...
Giant performer Great Khali who started as a Heel hasn’t impressed with his wrestling skill nor with his gimmick performance. But still he is slowly getting used to people. Wrestling fans wanna see a giant performer in their stage, some body who is little less than 8 feet and massively built will have an impact when enters the ring every time. But the most horrible part of this gimmick is the finisher, it is really pity to see a developing wrestler with such a bad finishing move, if ...
Set your surrounding alive There are occasions when I enter the office I come in a sober mood only to notice the mood reflects on others as well. On certain occasions I have set the atmosphere live by simple small smile. There was an occasion when I came to office in a complete anger mood, but then switched over the entire atmosphere to electric with some excitement on my face, I felt refreshed when I shared jokes and started laughing eventhough all at first short started with an artifi...
Boring Boogey Man Another desperate attempt by WWE ended in a flop as they try to create a scary character. Even though initial concept of introducing a character as horrible as boogey man is it never created any scary moments among the fans or the stars. The exact reason behind hype of of under level player like JBL, edge and some more. JBL as a champion itself was nonsense and he goes on and on in the headlines as a headliner further brings down what WWE can offer to its fans. In ...
Mystery Champion Rey Mesterio has World heavyweight champion would have mystified many, eventhough no body would have predicted him to win the Royal Rumble but few doubted that when became the champ in Wrestle Mania history. He might hold the dubious record of Heavyweight champion with most non-title defeats. Most of the matches he started as Underdog and ended up losing, for instances matches against Mark Henry, The Great Khali, Kane & Finlay. He does have the talent but does he ...
Do they have any chance on Ronney's absence ? On the paper they look one of the strongest team, With Gerard, Ashley Cole, David Beckham, Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell, Wayne Rooney , Michael Owen and much more, but do they have the fire power to beat strongest of teams Like Brazil, Germany, France, Italy & Argentina especially if Rooney cannot play critical matches. The performance against Paraguay was way below par, however their big victory against Jamaica was an encouraging sign befor...

A rare SmackDown appearance by “Rowdy” Roddy Piper ended in storybook fashion on Friday night at the Cow Palace in San Francisco. The unlikely trio of Batista, Eddie Guerrero and “The Rowdy One” defeated the Ortons and Mr. Kennedy when Cowboy Bob fell victim to Piper’s sleeper hold. Early on in the huge six-man tag team match, it looked as if another legend might be “killed” at the hands of Randy Orton & Co. Rowdy Piper was beaten and battered, and old ally Cowboy Bob Orton successfull...
