Now That's What I Call Wrestling #9: The Backdated Editions - The Captain Returns (Part 2)
by TheBigBoot on 2 July 2009
The turning point in Christian’s solo career came during his old mate The Rock’s highly entertaining Hollywood heel run in 2003, in a backstage segment where he asked the action hero to sign a copy of The Scorpion King. After Rock signed it, ‘To Christian, my favourite wrestler”, ‘The Great One’ took time out to give some advice.

ECW’s current incarnation may be a far cry from the thrill-seeking, death-defying promotion of the 90s but WWE’s third brand has risen from the ashes to become one of the most gripping hours of televised wrestling on the planet...

Rumours and speculation make up a big part of the online wrestling landscape. Always have, always will. One rumour that won’t go away is that Eric Bischoff and/or Hulk Hogan are going to launch their own wrestling company in an attempt to give Vince McMahon serious competition.
