Sting makes long-awaited WWE debut.

The former World Championship
Wrestling icon interfered in the main
event match featuring Team Cena and
Team Authority and confronted Triple H.
After an intense stare down, the 55-
year-old laid out the WWE’s top villain
with his patented “Scorpion Death Drop.”

With WrestleMania 31  just five
months away, all signs point to a match
between two guys who both worked for
WCW in 1994.

Wrestling fans have been craving for a
Sting match at WrestleMania — but with
The Undertaker instead of Triple H.
Problem is, there has been no mention of
The Undertaker on WWE programming
since his surprising loss at WrestleMania
30 to Brock Lesnar. The loss was The
Undertaker's first at WrestleMania in 22
matches. With the "Dead Man" likely not
in the picture anytime soon, the 13-time
world champion will have to do.
When WWE acquired WCW in 2001,
many top wrestlers made the switch to
the once-rival promotion. Sting decided
not to work for Vince McMahon and he
was a real afterthought until signing with
Total Nonstop Action Wrestling in 2003.
He was TNA’s inaugural Hall of Fame
inductee in 2012, where he feuded with
former WWE greats Hulk Hogan, Kurt
Angle and Jeff Jarrett. Following his
departure from the company earlier this
year, Sting appeared in an April WWE
documentary on the late Ultimate
Warrior. Two months later, 2K Sports
announced that Sting would be featured
as a playable character in its WWE 2K15
video game.
And if you’re wondering why the WWE
decided to roll out such a major debut at
Survivor Series, you can thank the
struggling WWE Network subscription
numbers. With stockholders upset about
the network not meeting expectations,
the WWE has made the digital network,
which carried the Survivor Series,
available for free during the month of
November. Rolling out Sting feels like a
Hail Mary move in hopes of attracting
the casual fan to stick with the service.

boys buried in snow pile heard rescuers calling

NEWBURGH, N.Y. (AP) — Two boys trapped in a snow pile for about seven hours after a plow buried them could hear their worried family's cries but couldn't respond loudly enough to be heard, they said Friday. Police credited an air pocket with saving their lives. The two cousins, 11-year-old Elijah Martinez and 9-year-old Jason Rivera, were building a snow fort Wednesday night across the street from Elijah's apartment in Newburgh when a plow operator clearing a parking lot unknowingly pushed snow over them. Buried in about 5 feet of snow, they could barely move and couldn't breathe very well, so they could do nothing as they heard the anguished cries nearby. Jason lost his gloves. His hat flew off. They relied on each other to stay alive, they said, sharing Elijah's face mask to try and keep their hands warm and talking to each other so they wouldn't fall asleep. "I felt so tired. It didn't feel real that they were coming to get u...

Ebiripo: one of the best Ijebu Food

In spite of the fact that most of the Ijebu foods are tuber-related such as Ikokore, Ojojo, Ebiripo etc, the process of cooking these tuber varieties with special sauces makes them nutritionally rich and appropriate for all occasions. Ebiripo is a typical Ijebu cocoyam meal that can be cooked in various ways and spiced up to make a balanced diet. Cocoyam is purely carbohydrates and poor in other nutrients but many have now found ways to make the roots nutritious by adding soya beans while making Ebiripo. According to a study by Sowonola O. A. Et al, from the Federal College of Agriculture, Moor Plantation, Ibadan, Oyo State, “The combination of cocoyam and soyabeans in the processing of Ebiripo will bring about nutrient complement ability”. They submitted in their findings that Ebiripo fortified with 40% soya flour was significantly 28% higher in protein and 8.4% higher in fat than the other Ebiripo samples. Ingredients needed for a Nutritious Ebiripo Cocoyam Soya beans Ground fresh P...
