Lizard's Licking Likelihoods - UFC 124 Predictions

Nugget Feature - Lizard's Licking Likelihoods - UFC 124 Predictions
Sheeeeee's back!
After a little break from reading the future the Psychic Lizard returns for the latest UC pay per view.
Although only currently sporting a 50% accurate record, the Psychic Lizard has polished up her crystal ball and scrubbed off any dirty spots that may have led to her inaccuracies. The Liz is pretty confident that starting with UFC 124 she'll turn it all around and begin an incredible run of correct picks. Who knows maybe a correct guess here will she the mystic reptile go on to predict 100% correctly throughout 2011.
The main event of UFC 124 & the fight that Lizzy Steamboat will be predicting the outcome of is the Welterweight title clash between opposing coaches of the Ultimate fighter season 12, Georges St.Pierre and Josh Koscheck. 
Kos has been running his mouth and trying to get under the skin of GSP during the build up to this fight, but does Liz think he has done enough to upset and throw off the game of one of the top pound for pound fighters in the world, GSP?
The way the lizard makes her decision is the same as always, 2 pieces of food are chosen to represent each fighter. They are placed in the reptile enclosure and whichever food is eaten first will be the victor of the fight.
I had wanted to use fruit fitting to the fighters names for these predictions but as Liz only has a select diet, Georges St.'Pear' could sadly not be used. 
Instead we go back again to the trusty apple and grape pieces to see who will be coming out victorious and with title gold around their waist...

Power Poll

Nugget Feature: Power Poll
Here it is ladies and gents, this weeks top ten ranking of wrestlers, voted for by a bunch of pretty great wrestling websites, the world renown, 'Power Poll'!
Who will turn out to be this weeks number one? I'll give you all a hint, the 'Era of Awesome' does indeed continue...

Wrestling At The Movies!

Featured Nugget - Wrestling At The Movies #2
comparing wrestlers to movies (just because...)
With this week seeing the release of the potential Oscar nominee 'Knucklehead' featuring the Big Show what better time to bring back Wrestling Nugget's 'Wrestling At The Movies' series???
This series is not a look back at all the films produced by the WWE or featuring wrestlers, as classic as all those films turned out to be. 
Instead this is a comparison between a wrestler and a particular film or series of films. 
If you haven't seen the first entry in the series featuring Mick Foley, The Ultimate Warrior, Brock Lesnar and more, click here and go see: 'Wrestling At The Movies #1'
With that 'Upcoming Attractions' like intro out of the way here's entry #2 of...
Wrestling At The Movies!...

Power Poll

Featured Nugget - Power Poll - The Weekly Top 10 Ranking Of Wrestlers - 11/10/10


Last week the World Heavyweight Champion was sitting pretty atop the league. Will Kane be able to hang on to his spot this week, or will any of TNA's stars have done enough at 'Turning Point' to earn a place in the rankings???
Maybe a certain Tea Party hosting Italian funnyman will will make a big splash in this weeks listings...

Lizard's Licking Likelihoods - UFC 122 Predictions

Featured Nugget: Lizard's Licking Likelihoods - UFC 122 Predictions




She's back! Lizzy 'The Bearded Dragon' Steamboat aka the Psychic Lizard is back to make her pick for this weekend, (Saturday November 13th), UFC 122 Main Event between Nate 'The Great''The Grape' Marquardt and Yushin Okami 'Zucchini' (she eats Grape & Zucchini you see, haha hilarious i know...)
Anyway, if you're not familiar with how the amazing Lizard makes her choice, its pretty simple:
two pieces of  food are placed in her enclosure, (each piece represents a different fighter)
The food that she chooses to eat first will be the winner! 
Easy. 
Previously 'Lizzy' took a stab at guessing the winner of the UFC 121 Main Event between Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez and correctly predicted a new heavyweight champion would be crowned. Click here to see for yourself!
So with her 100% correct UFC predictions on the line, here she goes again, picking the next number one contender for the UFC Middleweight championship...

Wrestling's Top Tweeters!

Featured Nugget: Wrestling's Top Tweeters!



Since i'm a big fan of wrestling and also of the social networking site, Twitter, i wanted to find a way to combine the two. How about a list of the best wrestlers on Twitter? Boom! Great idea!
So here we have a rundown of my favorite Tweeters that also happen to be wrestling personalities before naming the very first 'Wrestling Nugget's Champion of the Tweets'! (for which if i was to ever design a title you could bet that id would be better looking than TNA's new belt!!!)
Since there are a whole bunch of wrestlers, commentators, bookers, fans on the Twitter, i'm focussing the list on those that are working for or have worked for the WWE and TNA Wrestling, so, sorry to all the indie wrestlers out there who are pretty good with 140 characters or less.


Onto the list...
