I'm '''Nirav Maurya''', <font color="orange">'''Rama's Arrow'''</font>. I was born on ], ] in ] and now reside in ] in the wonderful state of ] quite close to ]. I work with Misplaced Pages to learn and contribute specialist knowledge across the spectrum. I use Misplaced Pages for research and study more than for contributing data and media. | |||
I've primarily been active so far on topics related to the ], ], ], the ] and ], but I plan to diversify my contributions far and wide. I'm decidedly focused on writing as many ] as possible, but I'm also doing my best to help other users and defend encyclopedia standards. An active contributor for a year now, I try to be as creative, helpful and constructive here as possible in order to repay my immense debt for the wonderful knowledge and satisfaction this place and its people have given me. There's a great quanta of wonderful and thankless work to be done, so I'm buckled up. | |||
I was emotionally motivated to write about the ] and its architect ], and I dare say that these articles are the most documented accounts you'll ever find on the internet. My work on ] was chiefly inspired by a childhood visit to the archaeological site, which was a great adventure, even though the only thing on display apart from the dock were ancient toilets and sewers! In all three cases, I felt a very personal sense of pride. | |||

I'm really passionate about ]. I started watching "WWF" when I was like 7-8 years old. My all-time heroes are ], ], ], ] and ] While ] is an awesome wrestler, I just wish he'd get his personal problems sorted out. I think ] is the best active wrestler today. For the all-time best professional wrestler, it is the late great ]. The best matches I've ever been privileged to watch are - Benoit vs. ], Eddie vs. Rey and Eddie vs. ]; all three on ''SmackDOWN!'' and for the ]. Eddie vs. the ] was an amazing handicap match. Bret Hart vs. ] at '']'', Stone Cold vs. Bret Hart at '']'' and Hart vs. ] at '']'' must count as the best matches of all time. I absolutely love the ] format - all the best wrestlers bring their best game there. | |||
Eddie was the greatest because he was the master of both entertainment and wrestling. Eddie could and often would carry entire WWE shows just on his unfailing humor and big smile. He could make you love him or hate him at will - he was a consummate entertainer. And make no mistake - Eddie was the best wrestler. He beats both Angle and Bret Hart because he was a master of both ] and ]. He beats Mysterio because he had a stronger body, could hi-fly-dive and mat wrestle. That's what I call passion. He loved his family and loved his work - imagine doing all this at every single show and PPV throughout the year. His biggest triumph was his return after a devastating couple of years of drug addiction and personal turmoil. ], ] was probably the worst day of my life - there was something surreal about it. Just 2 weeks ago, Eddie had abandoned his heel run against Mysterio and his trademark "Lie, Cheat, Steal" entrance and persona had returned. In his last match against ] (aired ]), it was vintage Eddie - winning by DQ (coz he cheated). Then he tells Batista in the backstage segment that "I've got your back." On November 13, he was scheduled to win the World Heavyweight Championship... After one year, I still miss Eddie. The night of his death was probably the greatest legacy he left - tens of millions of his fans heart-broken. It was also the most tragic - he will miss watching his girls grow up and his wife Vicky. My prayers are with the Guerrero family. Eddie is my icon and mentor - he will live within me forever. One of the things that made me smile like Eddie was seeing an "Eddie Guerrero - Latino Heat - We Miss You" poster held up by fans in ] when ] was on tour. I would really like to congratulate those guys for that wonderful tribute despite the time elapsed and the gigantic distance between where they were and where Eddie lived. One year later, ] still burns... | |||

Again, I've thought about this carefully and I've decided its time to go. Its best to get out of the way and let the community get on with its work. I wish Misplaced Pages all the best and I hope it succeeds in its mission. My advice to the hard workers around here is to be patient (and yes, I don't have any more patience myself, but that's all anyone can do if you want this boat to sail) I would like to thank Bhadani, Sundar, Gurubrahma and Ragib for the wonderful impact they have had on my life - I owe you guys so much; I am in your debt for life. I also thank DaGizza and Aksi great for their friendship. Also, my love and regards to Phaedriel and Kylu.
Jai Sri Rama!
