Wrestlemania XXIV – My Thoughts
Posted: March 27, 2010 by The Mark in WrestlingTags: Batista, Big Show, Boom, Bret Hart, Buffalo Wild Wings, Chris Jericho, Christian, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, DX, Edge, Evan Bourne, Hart Dynasty, HBK, HHH, Jack Swagger, John Cena, John Morrison, Kofi Kingston, Matt Hardy, MITB, MVP, NXT, PPV, R-Truth, Randy Orton, RAW, Rey Mysterio, RKO, Shawn Michaels, Sheamus, Shelton Benjamin, ShowMiz, Smackdown, Straight Edge Society, Ted DiBiase, The Miz, TNA, Undertaker, Vince McMahon, Wrestlemania, WWE
This Sunday is Wrestlemania XXVI and I know The Blasian and The Bearded One don’t give a crap but there are a ton of you out there who do. Yes, I’m a huge wrestling mark and this is my Super Bowl. I watch RAW, NXT, SmackDown and I scour the websites for wrestling news every day. I also contribute to The Don Tony and Kevin Castle Show. The Blasian and The Bearded One are laughing right now but they can suck it.
There are nine matches announced and I like them all. The Hart v McMahon match might be the weakest on paper but I think outside interference will make it a better match. Top to bottom, all the matches look like they could tear down the house. Thankfully, there isn’t a diva match on the card to bring this Wrestlemania down.
The matches:

On Saturday I am officially requesting that the Korean Government change its slogan from “KOREA; SPARKLING!!” to “KOREA; SPARKLING FOOD POISONING.” I went out this last week with a couple of my fellow co-workers to celebrate the start of a new school year. Naturally, I was psyched, because my personal life (ie…moving apts and a [...]

10) Because I Can’t – For some strange reason, NASCAR is not a big hit out in South Korea?!?! Yet, I do see Korean’s with the odd (and old) Tony Stewart Home Depot Jacket on. But for the most part they remain clueless about the glory that is the Greatest Sport that goes in a [...]

Now that the Olympics are over it is time for me to officially start my commentary on the NCAA basketball season. In our group it has been discussed that there is not a clear cut group of number ones and even more so, number twos. Based on the rankings right now (which seeding is not [...]
