Team Bring It
talking of WrestleMania, although i'm far from a Cena hater, i'm still firmly in the camp of Team Bring It.
with that being said i haven't been too keen on any of the Team Bring It t-shirts made available so far, so i'm gonna get my iron on transfers out and make a few of my own, taken from The Rock's best film role to date...

Wrestling Nuggets WrestleMania Signs!!!
Wrestling Nuggets - Featured Nugget:
With WrestleMania right around the corner what better time for Wrestling Nuggets to return and show off the signs that will be going allong with me to the WWE's biggest pay per view of the year in Atlanta, Georgia.
So all you wrestling (and Wrestling Nuggets) fans can not only enjoy the in ring action this weekend but also play a great game of 'Eye Spy' and try to spot any of my sign-age through-out the show. (Tweet me if you do spot them, it'd make me happy!)
Anyway, here they are, starting with the star of the show...the Awesome One:
let's face it, win or lose, The Miz is awesome. So he gets an awesome sign.

Best Themes Ever!
Featured Nugget: Best Themes Ever: The Top 25 Entrance Themes In Wrestling.
There have been few musical masterpieces coming from the wrestling world over the years but one place that song and wrestling can really combine to maximum effect is during a wrestlers entrance. The right choice of song can add something extra to a character, help create a mood or force an emotional response, music can psych you up or freak you out, tunes can become iconic. Entrance themes play a really important part in wrestling.
I used all the above criteria when compiling my list of favorite themes, each one i felt offered that little something special...
either that or i just like the lyrics...
Here is my list of what i consider the Top 25 Entrance Themes In Wrestling...The Best Themes Ever.
And yeah, there is more than 25 songs linked (i linked other remixes, or songs influenced by or similar to those on the list) but i don't care it's my list, deal with it, and with the amount i added i guess i shoulda just gone and made the top 50! Oh well! :)
Numbers 25 - 11

Who Is The Anonymous Raw GM???
Featured Nugget: Who Is The Anonymous Raw GM???
Inspired by some of the search keywords that have led traffic to the Wrestling Nuggets blog i'm gonna write a little something, throwing out a few possible identities of the mysterious General Manager of Monday Night Raw.
Not much is known for certain about the individual running the show, other than the fact that he or she is a fast typer and that Michael Cole has probably e-mailed indecent photos of himself back to them, or maybe not, he's probably saving all those pics for the Miz.
As a tease to the audience the general manager has ended e-mails with former superstars catchphrases, Stone Cold's "And that's the bottome line..." has been used as has D-Generation X's "if you're not down with that, i've got 2 words for ya..." While this in no way guarantees the identify be that of Steve Austin or a member of DX i kinda wish they teased lines like that every week using different superstars famous lines. "Oh Yeah!" "Whatcha Gonna Do!"
One thing said by the GM which very possibly may be of no significance and never heard about again, was the GM mentioned in an e-mail that "they never liked Bret Hart". Even though this could quite easily turn out to be a red herring i used it as part of the criteria for some of the potential people on my shortlist.
Another aspect of the anonymous GM is a heel like nature and not pandering to the babyfaces. I think if the WWE had wanted to unveil the GM as some huge returning babyface one day then they would have curbed the annoying e-mail alert sound and distracting flickering of the lights.
These antics might suggest that whoever is the GM, doesn't care about being well liked. This heelish side also fits in with the way that the GM has favored The Nexus somewhat in decisions and stipulations over the last few months, maybe the GM is also the mastermind behind the Nexus, and when they are unveiled so to will "the bigger picture" Wade Barrett once mentioned was the Nexus' goal.
The biggest opponents of the anonymous GM, so far, have been: Chris Jericho & Edge. Is that a coincidence or is there a unmentioned history with these superstars and the GM.
I may be giving the WWE too much credit by thinking the whole angle of mysterious general manager has been thought out and having clues to the GM's identity being dropped along the way. Then again, it could just all be meaningless and WWE might not have even decided on who they want to play the role yet.
One thing i like about the whole storyline is that if or when the WWE do reveal the person behind all these e-mails they haven't restricted themselves to using someone who has been under contract the whole time.
The anonymity could be used if they resign former talent or even bring in someone new and just say it was them all along.
Okay lets get onto the list:
