WRESTLEMANIA EP434: 8 MAN BATTLE ROYAL FOR NUMBER ONE CONTENDERS SPOT!
WrestleMania continues and coming up next will be the 8 Man Battle Royal to determine the next number one contender for either the WWE or World Heavyweight titles. The winner earns the right to challenge for their brand's top title at the next PPV, BACKLASH!
And what a lineup we have! The Macho Man randy Savage narrowly missed out in being in the title match for the Light Heavyweight championship tonight, losing a hard fought match to old foe Ricky Steamboat..will be hoping to earn his shot at the big one.
Big Van Vader..the monster from the Rocky Mountains will be a force to reckon with, as this match suits his size and power perfectly. The former WCW champion will be confident heading into this one.
But not too confident, as even Vader gives up considerable size and weight advantage to THE BIG SHOW! Former tag champion alongside Andre The Giant, Show will be keen to show his former partner that he too can go on to bigger and better things!
Speaking of power, Big E can mix it up with the best of them, and the former WWE Champion will be hoping to regain some of his glory days at the apex of the fantasy Universe.
The Celtic Warrior is another former champion who is no slouch in the power stakes..it says something about this match that even the vaunted Sheamus comes into this match as something of an underdog.
And adding to the physical specimens in this match, no one will underestimate the potential of Sycho Sid. Another former heavyweight champion, he will give his standing in the Fantasy Universe an exponential boost should he walk out victorious tonight.
Last..but not least..is the largest man in the Fantasy Universe, all 7'4" of Colossus! The only competitor here not to have held the biggest title in the company just yet, the nWo enforcer will be perhaps more determined than most to earn a title shot...having been stuck between a rock and a hard place ever since nWo leader Hollywood Hogan won the World Heavyweight championship. A win here would put Colossus on a legitimate path to either dethroning Hogan or creating an nWo monopoly by going after whomever is the WWE champion post WrestleMania.
For a shot at the biggest prize in the Fantasy Universe...
8 MAN BATTLE ROYAL for the #1 Contendership....NEXT!
