According to the lastest news from wwe.com, Zack Ryder will NOT be wrestling at Survivor Series. As the Miz would say, really... really. Honestly I call bullshit, not just because Zack Ryder should get a chance (this guy is hilarious to watch), but because I bet by Friday's Smackdown everything will be back as predicted.

In the WWE article, John Morrison is mentioned as the man who will fight Ziggler, but as many know Morrison is scheduled to leave in January (probably to TNA).

Call me psychic, but I bet that by Friday (come Smackdown tapings Zack Ryder WILL be at Survivor Series. Anyone want to put some money on that?

According to SuperLuchas, it has been confirmed that Zack Ryder, after starting an online petition, will wrestle Dolph Ziggler for the WWE United States Championship this Sunday at Survivor Series. This event will also mark the second Pay-Per-View where Ziggler wrestled in two matches. Expect great things from both these wrestlers.

Predictions: Zack Ryder will win the WWE United States Championship (woo woo woo, you know it), and Dolph Ziggler will move into main events were he will become a contender for a higher title.

From the video's description: WWE BREAKING NEWS: WWE Possibly Signing Luchador to Be Sin Cara's Tag Team Partner -"According to F4Wonline.com, Mexican star Averno may be brought to WWE television to team with Sin Cara in his rivalry with Hunico and Epico. Earlier this year, Sin Cara was pushing hard for Averno to be brought in. Reports claim that WWE has gone back and forth on deciding if they wanted to use Averno. He took part in tryouts recently when WWE was in Mexico, and it seems that there is a better chance than ever of him being used by WWE." Now, it appears we could be seeing yet another luchador headed to the WWE to help out Sin Cara. source: F4Wonline.com (via WrestleZone.com)

Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Death, is a Mexican holiday that combines both the Catholic religious day of All Souls' Day and traditional indigenous Mexican practices. The holiday is a day in which Mexican families venerate the dead. Traditionally, family members will visit the tombs of their dead family members at night, bringing with them tokens such as food, alcohol, or toys (depending on the "age" of the decease family member). These are laid on the person's tomb because according to ancient Aztec tradition, on this day the souls of the dead are allowed to return to the world of the living, and thus their favorite foods and items from when they were alive are often laid beside their tombs for the nonliving to "enjoy.


Human skulls are an important symbol for the Day of the Death celebration, and are often recreated in plaster, clay, and often in candy form out of sugar or chocolate. Traditionally candy skulls are inscribed with the name of the recipient on the forehead, and will be given as gifts (either to the living or the dead).



Additionally, an important figure in Mexican lore is La Calavera Catrina, the Elegant Skull, first conceived by printmaker Jose Guadalupe Posada in a 1913 zinc etching. The Catrina, is the skeleton of an upper class woman, whose image has since its creation gone to become the central figure of the holiday.

This video is a little old (about two weeks), but it still cracks me up. Good show, WWE, good show.
