Bray wyat finally got some respect and he became the champion. This is good but sadly he will lose it by wrestlemania

It wouldn't make any sense for bray to lose to orton. Bray is supposed to be built as a 'supernatural' heel ala undertaker. It just wouldn't make sense to kill all the momentum he is now gathering. He is over with the crowd and winning the main event at wrestlemania is very much deserved,

 

BTW why does everyone seem to think that KO and Jericho will fight for US title. I mean why is nobody thinking that Lesnar will make goldberg lost the match by interference? We could have a non title match between Lesnar and Goldberg. They are so over that any champtionship will play a secondary role. It makes much more sense for Jericho and KO to fight for titles and Jericho's career.

You do make a very good point with the lesnar and goldberg match. I hope that happens and I really hope that bray retains for a longer time

WWE is saddened to learn that WWE Hall of Famer William James Myers, known to fans as George “The Animal” Steele, has passed away at the age of 79.

 

Steele was one of the wildest and most unpredictable Superstars in sports-entertainment history. Yet, despite his green tongue, hairy torso and insatiable appetite for turnbuckle pads, "The Animal" was a very well-educated man. Prior to breaking into sports-entertainment, Steele received his Master’s Degree from Central Michigan University and became a high school teacher and wrestling coach in the Detroit area.

 

It was during his teaching stint that he began moonlighting in sports-entertainment, working in the Detroit-area promotions. Steele’s first WWE appearances took place in 1967, when he began a heated rivalry with WWE Champion Bruno Sammartino. For nearly 20 years, Steele was a reviled villain, managed by the likes of fellow WWE Hall of Famers The Grand Wizard, "Classy" Freddie Blassie, Capt. Lou Albano and Mr. Fuji. His classic main events against Sammartino, Pedro Morales and Bob Backlund saw him come close to winning the WWE Championship on many occasions.

 

In 1985, however, Steele was embraced by the WWE Universe and changed the course of his career. After The Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff abandoned him during a match, Steele fell back under the tutelage of the then-beloved Albano. His transformation was remarkable, as one of the most hated men in the sport became one of its most loveable figures. Long after his in-ring retirement and WWE Hall of Fame induction, George “The Animal” Steele’s name still evoked terror for one generation of WWE fans and warm smiles for another.

 

WWE extends its condolences to Steele’s family, friends and fans.

Yeah! Super excited DDP is getting into the HoF. Totally deserves it not only for what he did in the ring (in such a short time to boot!) but what he's doing outside of the ring now with some of the boys. Hall, Jake the Snake, Jericho even. He's helped so many people now. Really happy he's getting recognition for this finally. I don't know if this will lead to him having one more match (I severely doubt it lol) or not, but we will at least see him on RAW or Smackdown around Wrestlemania time at least.

^^ I'll put my hands up now: I bought a few of these brown bag deals last month. Got stung by customs charges, but still, I got a baker's dozen of t-shirts and a load of random Hardys merch at a decent price, although one of the shirts was Earl Hebner's. :p

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.

      "77ee94b helium/windows: winsparkle updater (built-in auto-update support on Windows" If that's what I think it is, that is about the only thing that's been missing from this excellent browser. I guess I'll find out the next time I'm on a Windows machine.
