WWE Extreme Rules 2014 Full Show Predictions [WWE 2K14 SIMULATION]

WWE returned last night with the first major event since Daniel Bryan's sensational WrestleMania triumph one month ago. Here we round up the results and key storyline developments.The pre-show “weeLC” Match: El Torito defeated Hornswoggle. This could have been on the main card, it was that good. Surprisingly good, even. A number of tables were destroyed and a few ladders were used, mainly due to interferences from Los Matadores and 3MB. El Torito delivered a springboard senton through a miniature table on Hornswoggle for the win. 1. Cesaro defeated Rob Van Dam and Jack Swagger (Elimination match). Swagger was the first to be eliminated after receiving a Five Star Frog Splash from Van Dam. Cesaro then picked up the win after a Neutralizer onto a trash can to Van Dam. 2. Alexander Rusev defeated R-Truth (two-on-one handicap match). Xavier Woods didn't really have a huge part to play in this match so the “handicap” aspect of the bout was never really in play. Rusev won by submission with The Accolade, taking his winning streak even further.Outside of WrestleMania last month, I thought Extreme Rules was the best WWE pay-per-view in quite some time. While there have been some good matches here and there on WWE pay-per-views lately, the events from top to bottom left a lot to be desired. However, that was not the case Sunday night at the IZOD Center in East Rutherford, N.J. I thought the card delivered overall and it made for an enjoyable show.Daniel Bryan put his WWE World Heavyweight title on the line against Kane at Extreme Rules, and things quickly got out of hand. Bryan and Kane took the fight backstage at the Izod Center, where Bryan knocked out the Big Red Machine with a crowbar. The match had to end in the ring to be official, so in order to get Kane back to the ring, Bryan loaded him on a forklift and drove him to the ring himself.

Real Madrid 2:2 Valencia All Goals & Highlights

Cristiano Ronaldo's incredible late acrobatic strike helped keep Real Madrid's bid for the treble alive. Valencia seemed set to take all three points from the Santiago Bernabeu but the Ballon d'Or winner rescued his side once again, swivelling his body magnificently to convert Angel di Maria's cross. The inspired goalkeeping of Diego Alves had kept Ronaldo at bay for almost the entire game, but the Portugal striker had the last laugh.Cristiano Ronaldo's incredible late acrobatic strike helped keep Real Madrid's bid for the treble alive. Valencia seemed set to take all three points from the Santiago Bernabeu but the Ballon d'Or winner rescued his side once again, swiveling his body magnificently to convert Angel di Maria's cross. The inspired goalkeeping of Diego Alves had kept Ronaldo at bay for almost the entire game, but the Portugal striker had the last laugh, volleying home with the back of his heel to score his 50th goal of the season.Real Madrid failed to take full advantage of slip-ups by the leaders Atlético Madrid and Barcelona when they needed an acrobatic Cristiano Ronaldo volley in stoppage time to rescue a 2-2 home draw with Valencia. A Real win would have put them level on 85 points with second-placed Barça, who drew 2-2 at Getafe on Saturday, with a game in hand but they stayed third on 83 points with three games left. Atlético, who like Barcelona have two matches remaining including the meeting between the teams at the Camp Nou on the final day of the season, are top on 88 points after they lost 2-0 at Levante earlier on Sunday. Valencia took a surprise lead in the 44th minute at the Bernabéu when Jérémy Mathieu nodded in a Dani Parejo corner before Sergio Ramos levelled with another header in the 59th.

Manchester United 0-1 Sunderland: Highlights

David Moyes' spirit lingered at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon as Sunderland became the latest club to break a long-standing record and claim their first league victory at Manchester United in 46 years. Fulham And Cardiff City Relegated From Premier League (PICTURES) Sebastian Larsson's first half-volley from Connor Wickham's cross in the was enough on another uninspiring afternoon from the dethroned champions, whose interim manager, Ryan Giggs, suffered his first defeat in charge. Sunderland's win has condemned Cardiff City and Fulham to relegation, after they lost 3-0 and 4-1 at Newcastle United and Stoke City. The Black Cats are not assured of safety, but with two games remaining should be confident of consolidating their Premier League status ahead of next weekend's final round of fixtures.This was a return to the bad old days under David Moyes. Plodding, impotent and characterless: these type of pejoratives were supposedly banished in Ryan Giggs's brave new Manchester United world. Instead, the old quality deficit again glared. Only when Danny Welbeck was introduced in the closing part of the contest did the champions regain some kind of potency via his willingness to take the fight to Sunderland.Sunderland moved within touching distance of Premier League survival with a 1-0 victory at Old Trafford to halt Manchester United’s most temporary of revivals under the charge of Ryan Giggs.For United it was more of what has been seen for much of the season under David Moyes rather than the improvement witnessed in last week’s demolition of Norwich and hopes for a quick return to the glory days of which Giggs was such a big part on the pitch. A lackluster performance saw a properly rejuvenated Sunderland get the only goal through a fine Sebastian Larsson volley on the half-hour mark. The win could have been made far more comfortable had efforts from Emanuele Giaccherini and Fabio Borini been a couple of inches either way and found the net rather than the woodwork. But with United spurning what precious few chances they did create in the second half, Sunderland were able to hold on without undue drama for another massive three points.

Everton vs Manchester City 2-3 All Goals and Highlights 03-05 2014

They played like a team that, barring something extraordinary, can now be thought of as champions-in-waiting. Manchester City recovered from the early setback of Ross Barkley's stunning goal. They lost Sergio Agüero to injury and – classic City – they made life unnecessarily difficult for themselves in the final stages. Yet Manuel Pellegrini's side held out and the sums now are simple. Two more wins will return the Premier League trophy to their side of Manchester. They came so close to making a pig's ear of it against QPR on the final day two seasons ago that their supporters should not get overly presumptuous just yet. All the same, Aston Villa and West Ham should be obliging opponents for a team that has just ended Liverpool's 27-day spell on top of the league.Edin Dzeko scored twice to help Manchester City to a difficult 3-2 win against top-four chasers Everton as Manuel Pellegrini's side head to the top the of Premier League. Ross Barkley opened the scoring with a brilliant strike from 25-yards out after 10 minutes, but City were soon back in it after Sergio Aguero rifled the away side level. Minutes after scoring, Aguero was forced off with injury but his strike partner Dzeko filled his shoes admirably with two goals either side of half-time.nchester City will win the Premier League title if they win on the final day of the season, but Everton certainly didn't make their day easy on Saturday. Ross Barkley scored one of the best goals of the season to kick the match off, but City fought back with three goals of their own, then held off a late Everton charge to win 3-2.Manchester City took a significant step towards claiming the Premier League title as they returned to the top of the table on goal difference with victory at Everton. Liverpool were looking to their neighbours to do them a favour and beat City - and their hopes were briefly raised when Ross Barkley's spectacular early strike put Everton ahead.So there is no curse and the bogey ground does not exist. Only once had Manchester City won at Goodison Park in their previous 16 attempts and this was supposedly the arena in which their championship challenge might falter. But talents such as Sergio Aguero, Yaya Toure and Samir Nasri are no respecters of mystical old English traditions. Nor is a club that has seen more than £1billion lavished upon it since 2008. City forged a new reality at Goodison Park as the season that has ebbed and flowed like never before took what must surely be its final twist. Manchester City are champions elect. True, it wasn’t easy. In the end they stumbled across the line, hanging on for a 3-2 win. And Everton, who finally relinquished the struggle for Champions League football, never faltered in their efforts.

Rockets vs. Trail Blazers results, NBA playoffs 2014

mian Lillard drained a game-winning three with 0.9 seconds left in the fourth quarter, and the Portland Trail Blazers eliminated the Houston Rockets with a 98-99 victory. Chandler Parsons gave the Rockets a two-point lead with a putback, but Lillard responded with a huge shot out of an inbounds play.

That’s called a game-winner and a series-clincher. Moments earlier, Chandler Parsons had given the Rockets a 98-96 lead with his own awesome put-back. That left 0.9 seconds, and the Blazers had the ball on a midcourt inbound.

SpiderMan 2 Clevver Review - The Amazing SpiderMan 2

Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is one of Hollywood’s summer big budget movies. It cost $250 million to make and another $150 million to market around the world. Sony Pictures hopes its stunning special effects will bring in the money. But it is Spiderman's humanity and idealism that speak to people all over the world. Marc Webb’s 3D sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2, starts as Peter Parker, the young man under the Spiderman suit, is graduating from high school and preparing to take on the world. The film dazzles with its special effects, but filmmaker Marc Webb says the superhero's optimism and youthfulness are the biggest draw for young people. “Which is kind of a magical thing because we are in a world that is divided by borders, by religion, by politics and these characters, the characters that everybody can find something in, can penetrate people in a very special way as we travelled the world," said Webb.

Protests mark May Day around the world

MOSCOW — Tens of thousands of Russians marched through Red Square on Thursday as part of May Day celebrations in the first such display of Soviet-era-like ceremony since 1991 — the year the communist Soviet Union dissolved. "For the first time, stages will be filled, and 5,000 (labor) veterans will stand on the tribunes of Red Square," Sergei Chernov, chairman of the Moscow Labor Union Federation, was quoted by ITAR-Tass as saying, ahead of the march, which is being seen as part of President Vladimir Putin's efforts to stoke patriotic feelings following Russia's annexation of Crimea. As many as 2 million people were expected to be on hand for the event organized by Russian labor unions, which are mostly loyal to the Kremlin. In the end, about 100,000 people participated in the celebration, some holding signs saying: "Let's go to Crimea for vacation" and "Putin is right." Russian flags fluttered through the crowd.Tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets around the world to mark International Labour Day, including in Turkey, Hong Kong, Moscow and Jakarta. In Istanbul, police dispersed on Thursday hundreds of protesters who tried to defy a ban on demonstrations on the city's Taksim Square on the anniversary of clashes that prompted a nationwide protest movement. The square has been the scene of protests that have dogged the government for months. After giving a final warning, hundreds of riot police backed up by water-cannon moved in on protesters in the Besiktas district as they tried to breach the barricades leading up to the symbolic square, an AFP reporter said on Thursday.Thousands of activists are attending a May Day rally in honour of veteran political campaigner Tony Benn and rail union leader Bob Crow who died within days of each other last month. The traditional May Day event in London, which celebrates workers' achievements, will honour the two men, who died within a few days of each other earlier this year.It’s May 1! Hooray! But what even is May Day, and why should we be excited? Well I’ll tell you why… What is May Day? The first day of May, or Beltane, marks the start of ‘the season of warmth and light’. That’s summer to you and me. What makes May 1 so special? Today is the mid-point between two seasons – spring and summer. Another important mid-point is November 1 – between autumn and winter. But no one really cares because winter is rubbish.
