The Main Event: Floyd Mayweather Vs. Captain Insano

Wrestlemania 24 took place this Sunday after yet another year of unbridled anticipation. Each year I watch, the stakes get higher and the stunts more amazing. Example: Shawn Michaels and his ridiculous ladder leap onto Vince McMahon who at the time was on a table with a trash can over his head. Are you serious? I couldn’t have come up with that drunk, let alone actually pull it off. This year’s spectaclewill be featured a matchup of the best pund for pound boxer, Floyd Mayweather at 5′8″ 159 pounds, and the wrestler known as the Big Show (who prefers to be known as Paul “The Great” Wight, I would prefer that also even though it sounds a little Chris Berman-esque, also the Big Show had a cameo in 1998’s Waterboy as Captain Insano) who stands at 7′ and weighs in at 441 pounds. I definitely would not have thought of that, drunk or not. This size disparity was obvious in this picture, Big Show’s fist is as big as Floyd Mayweather’s head.

To no one’s surprise, Pretty Floyd was victorious, but I saw this as a tragedy due to the fact that it did not live up to the sanctity of WWE. Yes, I said sanctity. It looked like a Dad, a sixer or two deep, chasing his kid around the room. Int the future I hope WWE returns to what really makes it great, the home-grown personalities. Here’s to hoping my boy Carlito starts getting top billing.

    I think captain insano looks really great and all buffed up. Cut definition as well. Well done big show, you really looked great there. I didn’t even recognise him i just saw he’s face looks familiar.

Got something to say?
