April 19th 2009, WWE WrestleMania Tour, Nottingham Arena

This was the second time we (we being Kev, Leah and Chris) have watched the wrestlers of WWE.

This WrestleMania Tour started off with some girls wrestling for some Championship or another. 

A lady wrestler

Just like last time what they were fighting for didn't seem important, nor did their names.

The Glamazon

Actually that's not strictly true.  One of the lady wrestlers was the impossibly strong but brilliantly named Beth "The Glamazon" Phoenix.

A lady wrestler that won...though we arent sure what she won!

Despite the great name and massive arms, the Glamazon lost.

The Miz listening to the crowd

Next up was The Miz fighting someone none of us had heard of.  He won.

William Regal fights back against Golddust

Then William Regal, supposedly British Royalty, fought a very tall man wearing a slightly disturbing lycra suit called Golddust.

Santino Marella and his eyebrow

Up next was Santino Marella, a man with an impossibly large eyebrow, fighting Kofi Kingston who was so bouncy he could give Tiger a run for his money.

Kofi Kingston and Santino Marella

Kofi Kingston celebrates

After a lengthy match featuring lots of very acrobatic moves, Kofi won.

Kane (in the ring) and Mike Knox hurting normal people

The next match was a bit of a mismatch between the giant Kane and his equally large partner Mike Knox between two normal sized people.

Not partners anymore!

Clearly their opposition weren't good enough as they ended up fighting each other.  Kane won.

Chris Jericho adresses the crowd

Chris Jericho imparted his wisdom to us....

CM Punk

....whilst we waited for CM Punk to come out and shut him up.

Jumping Jericho Batman!

Kev and Chris misheard what the crowd (and Leah) were chanting.  Apparently it was C, M, Punk, C, M, Punk not Swimming Trunks, Swimming Trunks.

Swimming Trunks wins

Whatever the chant Swimming Trunks won.

Big Show and Edge

Ray Mysterio

Hustle, Loyalty, Respect - its John Cena

The Main Event was a Tag Team match between the Big Show and the "Rated R Superstar" Edge on one side and the tiny masked marvel that is Ray Mysterio and current World Champion John Cena on the other.

Muscle on muscle

Cena is awesome, with muscles on top of his muscles.

Looking up to the Big Show

But did give a bit away in height to the 7ft tall Big Show

Mysterio tries to escape from the Edge

He failed

The Edge

The Edge clearly enjoys his work having spent most of the match beating up Mysterio.

Winning

Celebrating

But in the end it wasn't enough, Mysterio and Cena won.
