Aleksandr Karelin is the greatest Olympic Wrestler of all time. Born in Siberia and 12 lbs at birth. Akira Maeda wasn't about to get cute with "The Experiment". This is more work/shoot than shoot, I think. Karelin could stretch Godzilla, pull his eye out, then pick him up and dump him on his head.

Well, I guess that was a fitting tribute to Taker. Although I feel 30 years was stretching it; his full-time career was practically over at least 5 years ago, and the past 2 years he was pretty much retired.
 
I felt like Bayley should have won. Entering number 1 she could have done something historical.

Also Bayley might use a screenshot to say that Bianca feet touched the floor during that squabble with Rhea on the outside
 
I know it's hard to top what she does each year, but I was still a little disappointed with Naomi's "stunt" this year. Although it was funny using Bianca's hair.
 
Did anyone else saw the intergender match with Sasha Banks on SmackDown about a week ago?
I must have missed it. When exactly was it?

I did watch the rumble though. I'm a huge Edgehead, but I'm uneasy about him wrestling so much, knowing he could be paralyzed or even die with one mistake. I hope they just let him win at mania & retire for good with the title.

Now the women's rumble, that was cool. Foxxy back was awesome, and the bit with truth was so her.
I was happy to see Victoria, but you could really see her ring rust (can't blame her). I think it was telling that they stopped her moonsault.
 
Would you support intergender wrestling if starts to become the norm on TV?
I could get behind it if it were realistic and not one-sided. Tajiri and Aska had a really good feud back in SMASH.

I think sites like Evolved Fights have shown that women (even porn stars) can legitimately wrestle able-bodied men on equal ground, so it's not unbelievable.

But if one-sided intergender wrestling matches are your thing (both ways), there's literally a whole genre of Japanese porn dedicated to that fetish:p:p
 
The Miz cashed in on Drew McIntyre and won the World Title and Roman retained after beating Daniel Bryan after Bryan won Elimination Chamber Match. Miz seems to be a transitional champion but I'm wondering which Babyface they have in mind to take the belt off of him.
