Wrestling may not be as popular anymore, but gladiator-like fighting matches are still all the rage. Grudge-Match.com exploits the socially repressed bloodlust in all of us through hypothetical battles between pop culture icons, like Mr. T. vs. Mr. Clean and Prince vs. Michael Jackson.
In a previous matchup between Tigger and Calvin's imaginary friend Hobbes, Christopher Robin and Calvin are enjoying a relaxed dinner while their respective tigers are left to starve under the table. A lone tuna sandwhich on the floor in the distance sparks a ferocious appetite and an equally heated battle between Tigger and Hobbes. One possible outcome? A merciless victory by Tigger. After all, "Tigger has the experience. While Hobbes has been limited to merely hunting a six year old human child, Tigger has had an entire forested ecosystem filled with a vast array of animals to practice the deadly arts in." It looks like Hobbes is about to learn, "kicking ass is what Tiggers do best."
