Alberto Del Rio Bio And images

Alberto Del Rio

Alberto Del Rio came to WWE from the Mexican elite. A Superstar of tremendous society stature and culture, he has been linked to the bloodline of Spanish royalty Ferdinand and Isabella. Everything about him, from his education to his sense of honor and his very appearance exudes an image of carefully-calculated majesty. He is, in every sense of the word, a Superstar of boundless means. With pure aristocratic arrogance, Del Rio chose to make his WWE debut in the summer of 2010 by interrupting and insulting Rey Mysterio on SmackDown. Later that night, Del Rio stunned the WWE Universe by making the two-time World Champion tap out in his first WWE match! Alberto Del Rio clearly prides himself on excellence. Armed with talent that appears to match his superior attitude, his zest for the finer things in life makes him destined for in-ring glory.

Alexander Ovechkin Bio And Images-Pictures

Alexander Ovechkin

With all the recent controversy over his latest goal celebration (completely unnecessary if you ask me but that is another article) I decided it was time to write about Mr. Alex Ovechkin. If there has been a more “exciting” player in hockey in the last 20 years, I am not sure who it could possibly be. The man combines amazing skill, speed, physical domination and a boyish enthusiasm for the game that has never been seen before. Maybe it helped that both of Ovechkin’s parents were good athletes as well? Alex was born on September 17, 1985 to Mikhail Ovechkin, a former soccer player and Tatyana Ovechkina, a winner of two Olympic gold medals with the Russian Women’s Basketball team in 1976 and 1980.
