Mickey Rourke punches Jericho in Wrestlemania 25…and Nicole Scherzinger offers the eye candy

We’ve never been fans of Wrestlemania…something about guys in leotard tights and ponytails pretending to knock each other’s teeth out never clicked with us (on the other hand, a good death match with oiled-up chicks is a game with standards). Having said that, Sunday night’s Wrestlemania 25 at Reliant Stadium in Houston proved to be quite entertaining.

Apparently, Mickey Rourke told studio execs of Iron Man 2 who made him promise he wouldn’t go in the ring to go where he went for plastic surgery (just another cute way of saying “go F**k yourselves). And so, when Jericho challenged him to fight him, Mickey did a Robert De Niro impersonation of “Are you talking to me?” and happily climbed into the ring. It was a short fight…Mickey gave Jericho a hook to the jaw and the game was over (and this is where we pretend Jericho wasn’t in on it…hey, the Wrestler taught us well…and now we call the Ketchup for what it isn’t…and that is blood).

As for Nicole Scherzinger…singing the national anthem is nice and all…but we wish she could have just stripped down to her leotard undies, put some oil on and showed us how she would strangle an opponent with her thighs (and if that doesn’t work, asphyxiate him with her bossom).
