Tonight is the WWE’s biggest event of the year, Wrestlemania XXIV. It should be a very interesting show. Held at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, it’s the first time in quite a while that the event is being held outside. WWE has reportedly spent over $300,000 on pyro, and the set from the looks of it is huge. There will more than likely be a very interesting atmosphere, as it’s currently raining in Orlando, and chances for more are present. The company has placed a huge tent over the ring, but the rest of the stadium will of course be exposed to the weather.

Below is the card, and your exclusive Rob ‘N roll predictions:

Don’t lecture me on the relative awfulness of Disturbed. I’m very aware of how bad they are, but I’m also very aware of how catchy their particular brand of mainstream metal is.

That being said, they have released a new single titled “Inside The Fire” from their forthcoming album Indestructible. It’s the same old thing you’ve heard from them before, but it’s pretty catchy. You know, for not good music.

BREAKING NEWS: Obama is a sexy relative of Brad Pitt March 28, 2008

Leave it to the ladies at The View to give us that hard-hitting election coverage we’ve been lacking during this election race. Senator Obama went on the show this morning, and Joy Behar jumped right in, asking Obama if he is in fact related to Pitt.

What she was referring to is an assertion by the New England Historic Genealogical Society that Obama are Pitt are distant cousins, linked by Edwin Hickman, who died in 1769.

Obama’s response: “I guess we’re ninth cousins, something, removed – or something. I think he got the better-looking side of the gene pool.” Oh, that crazy Barack.

After that comment though, Barbara Walters said, “We were saying just before you came out – maybe we shouldn’t say this. But we thought you were very sexy looking.”

More great Obama quotes after the jump.
