Wrestling Legends Blast ‘Disgusting’ Wetherspoons Meal During UK Visit
Okay, so I need to shorten the given content to about 650 words and add some pictures. Let me start by seeing what’s in the original article.
First, there’s info about The Great Muta (Keiji Muto), a WWE Hall-of-Famer, attending a wrestling convention in the UK with Mark Henry. They went to Wetherspoons, and Muta didn’t like the ramen there. The article mentions other wrestlers like Debra McMichael and Mercedes Mone also criticizing Wetherspoons. There’s also background on Muta’s career and Hall of Fame induction.
Pictures are already included with captions, so I need to make sure they’re placed appropriately in the shortened version. The original is around 650 words, but the user wants it "about" that length. Maybe some sections can be condensed, like trimming repetitive details or combining paragraphs.
I should check the word count as I go. Let me start rewriting:
Begin with the main point: Muta’s disgust at Wetherspoons’ food. Then mention the event he was attending, the other wrestlers present, the visit to Wetherspoons, his meal choices, his reaction on social media, and similar experiences from other wrestlers. Wrap up with his career highlights and induction.
Make sure the flow is logical and concise. Use the existing images but maybe mention them in the text to integrate smoothly. Check for any redundant info, like repeating that he’s a Hall-of-Famer. Also, ensure that the quote from his social media is included but not over-explained.
After shortening each section, verify the word count. Combine sentences where possible. For example, instead of multiple paragraphs about his meals and reactions, summarize them. Maybe merge the parts about Mercedes Mone’s experience into one sentence.
Make sure to keep the key details: the event in Manchester, the specific Wetherspoons location, the dishes he tried, his critique, and his return for steak. Also include the Hall of Fame induction despite not wrestling in WWE.
Integrate the images where relevant, perhaps after mentioning the meal or the event. Since the user added images in their placeholder, I can note where images would fit but keep the actual HTML as per the original but maybe reduce the number if there are too many.
Check for any technical terms or jargon that might not be necessary. Keep the language simple and direct.
Once done, review for clarity and coherence. Ensure that the shortened version still tells the complete story without missing important points. Finally, do a word count to confirm it’s around 650 words.
WWE Hall-of-Famer The Great Muta Slams Wetherspoons’ Ramen During UK Visit
WWE icon The Great Muta (real name Keiji Muto) sparked laughs and sympathy after criticizing Wetherspoons’ ramen noodles during a trip to the UK. The 62-year-old Japanese legend attended Europe’s largest wrestling convention, For the Love of Wrestling, in Manchester last week, alongside fellow WWE Hall-of-Famer Mark Henry and other stars like Debra McMichael.
While in town, Muto and Henry visited the Bishop Blaize, a Wetherspoons pub near Manchester United’s Old Trafford stadium. Muto, seeking a taste of home, ordered the chicken katsu curry and ramen noodles. Though he called the curry “okay,” he ripped into the ramen, posting a horrified reaction on X (formerly Twitter): “But as for ramen…what the heck is this?!”
Muta’s viral post showcased his dismay over the £8.82 noodle dish.
Despite the critique, Muto returned
