WWE Crown Jewel 2019

WWE Crown Jewel 2019
Por Daniel “Mr. Clutch” Mercado Castro
La capital Riyadh en Arabia Saudita se vistió de gala para un mega cartel que presento la WWE. Entre continuaciones de historias, apelar a la nostalgia con Flair y Hogan, incluir el boxeo con Tyson Fury y el MMA con Cain Velazquez vs Brock Lesnar, el evento tuvo sus bríos de ser una mini versión de WrestleMania. Juzgando por la reacción de los presentes, fue todo un éxito.
El Kick-Off rompió con un Battle Royal de 20 hombres donde el ganador tendría una oportunidad de enfrentar a AJ Styles por el campeonato de USA. Humberto Carrillo fue el ganador al sobrevivir otros 19 luchadores, en especial al dúo de Harper & Rowan. Carrillo tuvo la manos llenas ante AJ Styles, y a pesar de que dio una tremenda lucha ante uno de los mejores, perdió la misma. AJ Styles retuvo el campeonato de USA.
       El chiste del campeonato 24/7 continuó en Crown Jewel con R-Truth recuperando el mismo al planchar a uno de los Singh Brothers. Más tarde en el evento R-Truth lo vuelve a perder ante el otro hermano Singh.
Brock Lesnar retuvo su campeonato máximo de la WWE al aplicarle una Kimura a Cain Velazquez para vencerlo por rendición. Una lucha muy corta para una historia tan buena. Luego de la lucha y al ver que no quería soltar a Cain de la llave, Rey Mysterio Jr. trata de hacer el salve con un sillazo. Brock lanzó malamente a las afueras a Rey y continuó atacando a Cain. Rey regresa por segunda vez para el salve y saca a sillazos a Lesnar. La historia continúa.
The OC (Gallows y Anderson) se coronaron como los primeros Best Tag Team in the the World al ganar el turmoil match. Roode y Ziggler abrieron la lucha derrotando a Lucha House Party y a la dupla de Ryder & Hawkins. Luego Heavy Machinery a Roode y Ziggler. The New Day hace su entrada para meter al público y eliminar a Heavy Machinery, B-Team y The Revival. Revival ataca a New Day luego de la lucha, lo que ayuda a que The OC elimine a New Day luego de varios buenos falsos finales. En la final, The OC logra derrotar a los Vikings Raiders para ganar la copa. OC ganan la copa.
SaudiMania continuó con Tyson Fury conectando un derechazo que envió a las afueras a Braun Strowman, para apuntarse el triunfo por conteo de 10 en las afueras. Fury le dio un KO a Strowman y este luego de la lucha atacó a Fury para desquitarse la derrota. Fury sorprendió a muchos dando una buena y entretenida lucha. Hizo mejor trabajo que Cain Velazquez. El nene de la casa Mansoor dio una de las mejores luchas de la noche para vencer a un determinado Cesaro. Mansoor nuevamente sale victorioso frente a su gente y bajo una ovación de los presentes. Cesaro y Mansoor lograron un sonoro This is Awesome!
Por primera vez las mujeres luchan en Arabia Saudita, por cierto, tapando su cuerpo con ropa negra y usando T-Shirts para respetar la cultura, cuando Lacey Evans se enfrentó a Natalya. Natalya venció a Lacey Evans con su tradicional Sharpshooter. Ambas luchadores recibieron una tremenda ovación de los presentes.
El Team Hulk Hogan (Rusev, Ricochet, Shorty G, Ali y Roman Reigns) venció a Team Flair (Lashley, Nakamura, Drew McIntyre, King Corbin y Randy Orton). Fue una lucha exquisita que metieron al público y hasta lograron gritos de This is Awesome!. Fue un luchón y Reigns trajo la victoria con un Spear. Y llegamos a la estelar con la continuación de la guerra entre Seth Rollins vs “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt. Una excelente lucha que superó las pasadas y que por fin le dieron al fanático lo que querían...un final a otro nivel y que The Fiend ganará el campeonato. Wyatt venció a Rollins luego de tremendos finales falsos con su tradicional Sister Abigail. Wyatt es el nuevo Campeón Universal de la WWE y la gente gritaba This is Awesome! y You deserve it!

FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT: FIRST ALL-WOMEN CAST OF THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER® TAKES ON BREAST CANCER AWARENESS
 
The UFC’s 115-pound women mark breast cancer awareness month with educational session with breast surgeon from Comprehensive Cancer Centers of Nevada
 
Las Vegas, NV With the historic season of The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned in full swing, the 16 fighters vying for the opportunity to be the first UFC female 115-pound champion have shown the world they are both strong and beautiful, inside and out. Each has pushed herself to peak athleticism - prepared for any battle. 

One opponent however, doesn’t care about strength, fitness or mental determination. Breast cancer will affect one in eight women in their lifetime and, despite the cast of The Ultimate Fighter being at the top of their physical prowess, they are still susceptible to the disease. Like preparing for a fight, knowledge and awareness of what you are up against can provide a critical advantage. 

In conjunction with Breast Cancer Awareness month, the all-women cast of The Ultimate Fighter took time away from their training to better understand the disease and how methods for early detection can make all the difference in the fight.

The fighters spent an afternoon with Dr. Margaret Terhar MD, FACS, a breast surgeon at Comprehensive Cancer Centers of Nevada (http://www.cccnevada.com/). She discussed symptoms and signs, early detection methods, and preventative measures that all women should know and practice.

Learn along with the cast members as they hear from Dr. Terhar: http://youtu.be/4mwjB7Qt8R4

"It was an honor and I found it inspirational to interact with the highly motivated and well-informed young athletes participating in The Ultimate Fighter,” said Dr. Terhar. “As women achieve greater visibility in the world of sports and particularly the UFC, it is the perfect opportunity for them to help spread the word about good health habits. 

“It is important for women at any age to conduct a regular breast self-exam and to be aware of any irregular lumps, textures or color that may be symptoms of breast cancer. Not only do these women literally fight to be at the top of their game, but they have an incredible platform to promote breast cancer awareness and help save lives."

For The Ultimate Fighter coach and current UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis, the conversation on breast cancer is personal.

“Breast cancer is definitely something to be aware of,” said Pettis. “A student of mine found out she had breast cancer. I saw the process and how much it affects individuals and their families. It’s important that these ladies be aware and alert that it could possibly happen to them.”

Cast member Emily Kagan valued the reminder that the disease can affect anyone: “The fact that I am susceptible and so are the other women in my life was eye-opening and educational. More so, in the sense of being reminded that this is a reality.”

The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned returns tonight at 10 p.m. ET on FOX Sports 1. In episode five, an injury forces one of the fighters out of the competition, and opens the door for another to get a second chance in the tournament. The Team Melendez fighters question the severity of Heather Clark's nagging knee injury. Additionally, the storied rivalry between No.6 seed Felice Herrig of Team Pettis and No.11 seed Heather Clark finally comes to a head, as they face off in the fifth preliminary fight.

CAIN VELASQUEZ INJURED, REPLACED BY MARK HUNT FOR INTERIM UFC HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE VERSUS FABRICIO WERDUM AT UFC 180®
 
Mexico City, Mexico - The UFC® announced today that UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez suffered a right knee injury during training and was forced to withdraw from his championship fight against No.1 contender Fabricio Werdum in Mexico City on November 15.  

As a result, No.4 heavyweight Mark Hunt (10-8-1 in professional MMA, fighting out of Auckland, New Zealand), who is coming off a walk-off knockout against the iron-chinned Roy Nelson in Tokyo in September (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGunUlEd50A), will face Werdum (18-5-1, fighting out of Los Angeles via Porto Alegre, Brazil) in the five-round main event for the interim UFC heavyweight title.

“I’m so unbelievably disappointed that this happened,” Velasquez said. “To say I was looking forward to fighting in Mexico for the first time is an understatement. I wanted to fight on that card so bad. Looks like it wasn’t meant to be and it’s not going to happen. I’m going to get my [right] knee fixed and get back to training as soon as I can. I’m sorry to the fans in Mexico who were expecting this fight, and I hope to be able to come down and still be a part of this historic event.”
 
For Werdum, it was never about Cain, it was always about the title.
 
“I’m ready for whatever comes. I have been training in Mexico for nearly two months and accept the challenge that is presented to me. I'll continue to prepare and will arrive ready to fight on behalf of all my Latin American fans," said Werdum.
 
Mark Hunt, never one to shy away from a big opportunity, wasted no time accepting a dream opportunity to fight for UFC gold. 
 
I feel blessed to have this opportunity to fight for another world title. This is something that doesn’t happen often to people. First K1 and now UFC – how can I say no, even though it’s on short notice? I’m dropping everything and flying to Mexico tomorrow so I can best prepare myself for this fight. I have to get into shape and acclimatize to that environment, which is really important. 
 
“There’s nothing to lose when you’re competing against the best at the top level,” Hunt added.
 
UFC 180: WERDUM vs. HUNT scheduled for November 15 at the Arena Mexico City, sold-out in only  eight hours, and will welcome more than 20,000 fans. Along with the explosive main event, fans will also be treated to six other bouts featuring Latin American contenders.
