Randy Orton vs. Batista at the WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans-2014

At WrestleMania 30 on Sunday, April 6, six-time World Champion Batista returns to The Grandest Stage of Them All to challenge The Face of WWE, Randy Orton, for the most prestigious title in all of sports-entertainment, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The championship battle will etch not only a new chapter in The Show of Shows’ already illustrious history, but also the latest development in the years-long competition between The Animal and The Viper, former Evolution cohorts.

Both Superstars have grown by leaps and bounds since their nascent days as mere pupils of The Game and “The Nature Boy.” Despite his hiatus from the ring, Batista — newly empowered by his Jiu-Jitsu studies — has proven in his comeback to be every bit as destructive as he was years ago. Former WWE and World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio found that out the hard way at Elimination Chamber, when Batista downed him with an explosive Batista Bomb. And even though Orton’s merit to be called The Face of WWE has been called into question, there is no denying The Viper has found ways to hold onto the WWE World Heavyweight Title in even the direst of straits.

With the unification of the WWE and World Heavyweight Titles last December, this year marks the first time in more than a decade that there has been a single World Champion at WrestleMania, adding an even greater air of grandiosity to the proceedings. Will The Viper slither out of New Orleans and continue his historic title reign? Or, will Batista complete his stated goal and stand alone as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion?

Triple H vs. Daniel Bryan, at WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans-2014

The show features Triple H facing Daniel Bryan for the right to join the threeway battle with Randy Orton and Batista for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, The Undertaker placing his undefeated WrestleMania streak on the line against Brock Lesnar, John Cena fighting for his legacy against Bray Wyatt, The Shield versus Kane and New Age Outlaws, a Fatal Fourway to decide the tag team championship, a 30 man, over-the-top rope battle royal in honor of Andre the Giant and AJ Lee defending her Divas championship against 13 other women.

Ever since SummerSlam, Triple H, his wife Stephanie McMahon and his various allies in The Authority have confounded Daniel Bryan’s attempts to climb the WWE mountain because they say he is a B+ player…and decidedly not best for business. It took utilizing his fans and almost taking Raw off the air, but The Beard finally has Hunter’s attention. Though he paid for it with a brutal beating at the hands of The Game, Bryan has a shot a revenge at WrestleMania when he faces Haitch, with a chance to compete for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on the line.

The man who has held the WWE title since SummerSlam (and who unified that belt with the WHC when he defeated John Cena at TLC), Randy Orton, and the 2014 Royal Rumble winner, Batista, were none too pleased with the Chief Operating Officer’s decision regarding Bryan. Having had enough of their complaining, The King of Kings decided that not only would he defeat the bearded upstart, but he’d end the whining of his former Evolution followers by entering the triple threat himself and claiming the titles.

Interview with Hulk Hogan host of WrestleMania 30 ,to be held at Mercedes –Benz Superdome New Orleans-2014

One of the greatest, most popular, most hated and charismatic wrestlers of all time, Hulk Hogan is one of the men who helped parlay the circus-like world of professional wrestling from cult following into the forefront of American entertainment. What many people who know about Hogan don’t know is he was in the “sport” for several years in virtual obscurity before hitting the big time. Hogan made his pro debut in 1978 and wrestled as “Sterling Golden” before becoming “Hulk.” Hogan was getting main event matches while wrestling in the American Wrestling Alliance (AWA) in the early 1980s before he was cast as Thunderlips in Rocky III (1982). That bit of casting propelled Hogan into the spotlight and he was soon to enter the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1983. At the time, the WWF was just beginning to go from local television (they were based in the Northeast U.S.) to national, and Hogan’s personality (and some well-done marketing and PR, plus the Wrestlemania series) helped to transform not only the WWF, but wrestling into the big show it is today. Hogan won the WWF title numerous times, and was credited with dealing André the Giant his first loss in pro wrestling.

Hogan was soon seen everywhere — television, cartoons, movies, records and lunch boxes — but he was a part of the steroid scandal in the WWF, and quietly left the organization. Hogan laid low in wrestling circles, but continued to act before coming back, this time with World Championship Wrestling (WCW), the WWF’s bitter rival. Hogan helped create the New World Order, the main bunch of badmen in WCW, and became more popular than ever. He abandoned his trademark red and yellow colors for black, and even dyed his beard black. He still wrestles as of today, and, like it or not, is probably one of the best entertainers in any form of show business. He always put on a show.

Exclusive Interview with Former Heavyweight Boxing Great Larry Holmes-2014

Larry Holmes (born November 3, 1949) is a former professional boxer. He grew up in Easton, Pennsylvania, which gave birth to his boxing nickname, The Easton Assassin.

Holmes, whose left jab is rated among the best in boxing history, was the WBC Heavyweight Champion from 1978 to 1983, The Ring Heavyweight Champion from 1980 to 1985, and the IBF Heavyweight Champion from 1983 to 1985. He made twenty successful title defenses, second only to Joe Louis’ twenty-five.

Holmes won his first forty-eight professional bouts, including victories over Earnie Shavers, Ken Norton, Muhammad Ali, Mike Weaver, Gerry Cooney, Tim Witherspoon and Marvis Frazier, and fell one short of matching Rocky Marciano’s career record of 49-0 when he lost to Michael Spinks in 1985. Holmes retired after losing a rematch to Spinks, but made repeated comebacks and was unsuccessful in three further attempts to regain the title, the last in 1995. He had his last fight in 2002 and ended with a career record of 69-6. He is frequently ranked as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time and has been inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame and the World Boxing Hall of Fame.
