Well it’s that day today; WrestleMania is officially couple hours away. To be quite honest I was going to today’s WrestleMania not anticipating very much at all unlike other passed WrestleMania’s. Really the only match that had me looking forward to it was triple H versus Sting however within the last week thinks have changed dramatically. Brock Lesnar finally made a decision and re-signed with the WWE and has said goodbye to mixed martial arts (MMA) forever. You have to give it to the man he weighed his options, he played the game just right and most people would say he made the best choice for him his family and his health.
So since this has happened the main event for WrestleMania is now completely up in the air. Before this happened it was virtually hundred percent lock Brock was going to lose the match to Roman reigns. But now that Brock Lesnar has re-signed that pretty much changes the dynamics, it now has people more emotionally involved in the match. Now the match has people truly wondering who is going to be the winner Brock Lesnar or Roman reigns or maybe even money in the bank winner Seth Rollins somehow gets involved.
You got to give it to Vincent Kennedy McMahon when he truly wants something he gets it, and this was definitely a score for the WWE retaining Brock Lesnar. Also like I mentioned before triple H versus Sting that one should be pretty interesting match as well. Even though triple H hasn’t really been in the match for long time he can always bring it especially in WrestleMania. Now even though the WWE will make it seem like Sting hasn’t wrestled in multiple years that is not true because real wrestling fans has seen Sting wrestle in TNA. We all know that Sting can still go and when the man is excited and anxious to show his best he can go as good as anybody out there today even at his age.
Another match which is interesting to me is the Undertaker versus Bray Wyatt. For me overall the match is not super interesting to me in fact I would’ve preferred the undertaker versus Sting however I’m glad to see the undertaker after last year’s WrestleMania in which he took the beating from Brock Lesnar. I hope he appears more rejuvenated today and can put out a good performance as he has always done so before.
But these are my picks for these matches triple H versus Sting: sting wins all the way, Brock Lesnar versus Roman reigns: I personally would like to see Brock destroy Roman and finally Undertaker versus Bray Wyatt: I hope undertaker takes him out: may he rest in peace!

The Man Known As Sting
First of all in today’s day and age there aren’t many wrestlers who have good natural born charisma let alone true great charisma, presence and talking skills. Then you have your specific wrestlers from the past who not only had charisma but in fact had a surplus. In no particular order you had guys like Hulk Hogan, Ric flair, the undertaker, the Wolfpack, Mr. perfect, Rick rude and of course the ultimate warrior just to name a few. Then you have someone who is not only great on the mic when he speaks but is even incredible when he doesn’t say a word. You might be wondering who that wrestler is.
Well that wrestler, that man is Sting. As a short recap when sting was a young wrestler he was your typical California beach body bad boy. Sting had it all the looks, the body the athleticism and he was good on the mic. Sting’s matches were incredibly entertaining to watch and his one-on-one matches with Ric flair are classics without a doubt. However in the later years when he became the dark crow he completely changed his style and personality. In is WCW days he became the crow and hardly spoke a word.
The man hardly spoke a word yet spoke volumes with just a look and a stare. The man spoke not a word yet could outshine other wrestlers who never found the time to shut up and listen to what they were saying and how they were saying it. Then there were his TNA years and quite frankly I like them too. Actually doesn’t matter where sting is he always delivers. Now even though the WWE will make believe he hasn’t wrestled in years he is now in this year’s WrestleMania against triple H. I’m pretty sure this is going be a great match because triple H can still bring it and so can Sting.
In fact am hoping this is not his last match hopefully can go for another couple of years and hopefully face the undertaker at some point, that would be a dream match for many people. I know I may sound like a Sting fan boy at the moment but you have to give credit where credit is due. After all these years Sting is in the WWE hasn’t even really spoke a word yet is heading to WrestleMania as one of its showcase matches. And I for one am pretty excited, hoping the brass in WWE DON’T MESS IT UP!

Lucha Libre Star Passes Away El Hijo del Perro Aguayo
Very sadly El Hijo del Perro Aguayo, who has also wrestled as Perro Aguayo Jr. passed away after a match for the CRASH promotion in Tijuana, Mexico last night; he was just 35. Perro Aguayo Jr. was working a match with Rey Mysterio, Tigre Uno and Manik On March 20, 2015 when the freak accident occurred.
Referenced From wikipedia.org “Death On March 20, 2015, Aguayo suffered a severe whiplash injury during a tag team match against Rey Mysterio Jr. and Xtreme Tiger with his partner Manik at a show in Tijuana, Baja California. After being attendeded to by EMTs, Aguayo was taken to the local Del Prado hospital, but was later pronounced dead in the early hours of March 21. According to the initial announcement from the hospital, Aguayo died from a cervical spine trauma, reportedly suffered as a result of a dropkick by Mysterio Jr. that propelled him forward and caused the ring ropes to snap his neck. At the time of the incident Aguayo was not immediately attended to by a physician and was actually taken from the ring on a piece of plywood instead of a stretcher, which lead to some criticism of the event organizers. The Tijuana wrestling commission later explained that the doctor was backstage, attending to two other injuries that happened during the show. One of those injuries was a spinal injury and they did not want to remove that wrestler from the stretcher he was on, which was why they used the plywood to move Aguayo from the ring. The doctors worked on resuscitating Aguayo for over an hour before declaring him dead.”
I am sure more information will come available has soon as some time has passed and everything is sorted out. The young man is dead now and there is nothing that will bring him back however hopefully the wrestling business can learn something from this to help prevent future accidents and help safeguard the workers. I am left to wonder what kind of impact this will leave on his fellow wrestlers in the ring that moment and god bless his family. Just for the record I have seen the video of his death and its quite sad to see, Just a warning. Perro Aguayo Jr., was one of the biggest stars in Mexican pro wrestling. Aguayo Jr., the son of Mexican wrestling legend Perro Aguayo, had been amongst the AAA’s top heels. Rey Mysterio was wrestling in his first AAA match since leaving behind the WWE.
Update: The Death of Perro Aguayo Jr. has now made the mainstream news here in the US.I wonder what impact it will have on people's views on wrestling in general.

Random Thoughts Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan had an incredible run as the WWE heavyweight champion and the yes movement. Even though I’ve never been a real big Daniel Bryan fan you have to give him a lot of credit. Unlike so many other athletes and people in general he maximized his opportunity until he unfortunately got hurt. In the wrestling business you usually work yourself up to a certain level and then typically compete and are utilized at that level for a while. Unfortunately for Daniel it seems like he’s been very much demoted since his injury to his neck.
The top brass at WWE now has him competing for the Intercontinental championship belt. So far I have read numerous theories, rumors and conspiracies about this. Some people say it is a form of punishment for him for going hurt in the first place. People say he works to stiff in the ring for his own good. There are rumors that certain people at the top management never liked him and are very happy to downgrade him as much as possible. Their feelings were such a small man in comparison to the other athletes can never truly be the face of a wrestling company especially in the WWE. It is said that Vince McMahon and triple H only want to truly promote big hulking bodybuilding type of wrestlers.
And according to this philosophy there is no chance in hell that a guy Daniel size could beat an athlete such as Brock Lesnar whatsoever. However the prevalent theory right now is that since he is not in the heavyweight picture anymore he is being used to elevate Intercontinental championship to a new level. Even so this might be true and like I said before I was never the biggest Daniel Bryan fan it’s still very weird seeing him involved in his current storyline.
It’s weird seeing him in the current storyline and I know he’s still living his dream wrestling in the biggest company in the world but it still seems like it should been put in a better position heading into WrestleMania this year. I truly believe this year the brass at WWE have completely messed up WrestleMania! The only thing appealing to me WrestleMania this year is Sting and triple h and if Brock Lesnar will be renewing his contract with the WWE or go back to mma.

Random Thoughts Of Roman Reigns
I’m sorry but I don’t care how many times you try to show how powerful Roman reigns supposedly is it’s not going to work. From this point on until WrestleMania you can shove him down my throat hundreds of times it’s not going to make a difference to me and to the people who are thinking alike. Roman reigns seems like a pretty cool and generally nice guy. However, having said that he most definitely should not be competing against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania this year for the heavyweight championship.
Yes he was great as a team member in the shield; actually he was pretty good not great. He was pretty good as the enforcer in the shield as a team member but in my opinion he wasn’t a great standout from the rest of the guys Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. Are any of the guys from the shield world championship material absolutely but not now further down the line. Is not a shot at any of the guys however throughout wrestling history the majority of the players need time to be groomed into that position of being the world champion and not just a champion but a believable champion more importantly.
In conclusion I believe none of the guys from the shield Roman, Seth and Dean are prepared enough to be world champion right now. They all need more experience and time in the ring to build their skill set and build up more charisma on the microphone in particular Roman.
What they did with Mark Henry this week on Smackdown I thought was horrible. They made Mark Henry seem like a chump just to try to put over Roman reigns yet again.
