The bigger man mounts Austin and begins to pound down on the head of Austin and busts him wide open. He then gets off and the other man jumps on and continues assault but HOGAN! runs into the shot and the masked men run off. Hogan chases them around the backstage area but he looses them. Hogan makes his way to the titan tron and he walks down the ramp and into the ring. Hogan picks up a mic and starts to speak...
Hogan: Now I don't know whats going on back there, but all I know is that Steve Austin is in no fit state to compete. Now I am not ripping these fans off brotha. So you two muggers want to go around beating people up, well I am right here I am ready to

Austin: Now, I don't know what happened in back just, apart from the fact that two jackasses decided to jump me from behind.

refs, road agents and EMT’s come rushing down as the ref and Hogan stay by the side of Austin.
“I’m Back………” plays as Eric Bischoff comes out onto the top of the entrance way. Bischoff begins to laugh…….
Hogan looks up and sees Bischoff. Hogan exit’s the ring and begins to run up to Eric as Eric runs backstage with Hogan following.
*Meanwhile back in the ring, the EMT’s are trying to get Austin on a stretcher, when from out of the crowd the two masked men climb over the security barrier and into the ring. The road agents and referees try to hold them back as Austin is being put on the stretcher but both masked men attack the road agents and refs and throw them out of the ring. The masked men push the EMT’s to the side and they pull Austin off the stretcher. The bigger one mounts Austin and strikes him in the head with punches as the smaller masked man goes to the outside. He pulls a chair from under the ring and slides back in the ring. The bigger masked man stops striking Austin and pulls him to his feet. The smaller one gets the chair ready as the bigger one holds Austin up. The smaller one smashes the chair into the head of Austin and the bigger one lets him go. Austin falls to the canvas as his head spurts with blood. The masked men exit the ring and climb over the security barrier before exiting through the crowd.*

I really don't like how you've used multiple colours regulary, blue, red, blue, red, IMO it'd be much better looking if it was consistent. I also don't like the font you've used... but I guess it's personal preference more than anything - the boldness isn't really needed, if I'm to be honest it feels intrusive.
It's clear you have put effort in, just a shame it looks like shit. All the guy was saying and rightfully so} is the horrible font, color and general layout of the thing.
I have a distain for reading the thing, just purely down to that. Maybe in future, try to take constructive criticism on board. There was no way you were going to get any general comments when you have just posted a Wrestlemania a matter of hours ago anyway.

Re: World Wrestling Entertainment
Just like to say thanks for allowing my thread to be re-opened. Justice has indeed been served. I have edited my Mania to make it more "user friendly" although some of the spacing has been altered. Any I shall move forward and instead of writing weekly shows, as they are way to time consuming for me, so I will be doing a monthly recap.
Pre- WrestleMania Notes
- Plans are for the nWo to grow and encompass current WWE stars so that the older guys can sit back and help the young ones to get over.
-The plan for the nWo is to run over all three brands, but concentrate mainly on SD! as Orton is the World Champion.
- CM Punk put on a showcase performance at WrestleMania and is expecting to by the highlight of whatever show he is on, but as of now he will be staying on ECW.
- No WWE Draft is scheduled for anytime soon.
- Shawn Michaels is having sometime off after WrestleMania to keep his body as healthy as possible.
- Rey Mysterio is rehabbing his knee after surgery earlier this year. He is expected to be back in the ring, in around 3-6 months.
- WWE has signed Low Ki and Joe Hennig to development deals.
Next posting will be the review of April's month on the RAW side of things. This will cover the 3 weeks between WM and Backlash.
Ok, glad too see your thread got opened becasue your arguemant did seem fair enough. the Wrestlemania looked good, with a good card, all be it a bit unrealistic but still. Not sure if a recap off three weeks is the way to go but we will see how it turns out, just it will be a lot of info to take in.
