Where else in Miami can you see a leprechaun, someone who calls himself the Heart Break Kid, and a dead man? You could try your luck at Jimbo’s, Tobacco Road, or South Beach, but the only sure place to see all three is at tonight’s 21st annual World Wrestling Entertainment Survivor Series at the American Airlines Arena.

In one of the most mismatched bouts in WWE history, the lovable leprechaun Hornswoggle takes on the seven-foot two-inch, 420-pound Great Khali. The near-immortal Shawn Michaels (a.k.a. the Heart Break Kid) faces WWE champion Randy Orton in a rematch of their recent Cyber Sunday battle that ended with the cowardly Orton purposely getting himself disqualified. In the most anticipated singles match of the evening, the world heavyweight champion, Batista, meets the legendary Undertaker – the dead man – in a “Hell in a Cell” match. Blood and excitement are guaranteed. Tickets range from $25 to $300. Head to the AAA and get ready to see some serious gauntlets thrown down, beginning at 7:45 p.m.
Sun., Nov. 18, 7:45 p.m., 2007
