Here are some of the highlights. For people who are pessimistic about the Lumberjack match against Dean Ambrose at SummerSlam Rollins: I would tell them to order “SummerSlam.” Get their eyes on it, because if they’re expecting anything less than a knock-down drag-out bar fight, then they’re completely mistaken. We’ve been at each other for months over this, and the premise of the Lumberjack Match is to keep the two opponents in the ring together....

Every move performed in the squared circle is a risk, but some are more dangerous than others. Wrestlers all around the world have used moves that can cause so much damage to their opponents. Remember when Randy Orton was punting his opponents in the head in the late 2000s? The move was over and fit Orton’s personality, but it was also dangerous. That’s why WWE banned the move for several years....

The world of SSX is in its own league. The depth and detail this game goes into are beyond anything a winter sports game has seen before. EA Sports didn’t hold back when they crafted the game’s massive environments. Just yesterday, a trailer full of tricks offered a first taste of the game’s musical flair. Now, Electronic Arts has given us an awesome look into the mind behind the music production of SSX, Freddy Ouano....

Kanellis has had a strong showing in nearly every match he’s had since moving to the Purple Brand, but a lack of W’s forced Maverick’s hand around the time of the Cruiserweight Championship Tournament, keeping him away from an opportunity at the title. In order to right that wrong, all Kanellis had to do was defeat the General Manager in an Unsanctioned Match tonight. However, with a handful of titles under his waist from around the world, Drake Maverick is not one to take lightly....

2K Games, Nintendo, and WWE Superstar/cover athlete Seth Rollins teamed up to create a brief video confirming that WWE 2K18 will be arriving on the Nintendo Switch on October 17, 2017. Truth be told, the video is nothing all that fancy, but it was able to get the platform-specific message across clearly – albeit without showcasing any gameplay of the title running on the system. There are quite a few updates being made to WWE 2K18 when compared to last year’s iteration, with the ability to have up to eight Superstars in the ring at once, a greater variety of backstage fighting areas, and more all confirmed to be part of the Switch installment....

Look, they’re still decent and they are improving year after year, even if it’s only incrementally. But, the same problems persist year after year - and they’re not going to get solved if they stay on this same development schedule. It’s time to rethink this franchise and really make it fantastic. It’s time to Assassin’s Creed this thing. It’s time to what now? Following the release of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate in 2015 - and the disastrous launch of Assassin’s Creed Unity the year before - Ubisoft announced that the series was shaking things up and not releasing a new game in the series the following year....

This year’s WWE 2K20 promises to be better than the last edition, and WWE have wowed fans with the first images of the game. In case you didn’t know… WWE 2K series of games is, by far, the most popular pro wrestling video game series and 2K20 will be the seventh instalment of the game under the ‘2K’ brand. Also Read: WWE 2K20: 5 new features we’d like to see (that are completely unreasonable)...

With a 2K Showcase mode revolving around the Four Horsewomen of WWE and a female MyCareer story-mode alongside the male, Visual Concepts have clearly made a concerted attempt to revamp the series and bring in some fresh ideas. Unfortunately the game’s launch has been plagued with bugs, and the hashtag #FixWWE2K20 is currently trending on twitter as angry fans vent their frustrations on social media. RELATED: WWE 2K20 Dev Reveals Why It Stopped Working with Yuke’s...

WWE women wrestlers are going to be included across much of WWE 2K20. Not only are the superstars part of the MyCareer Mode, but WWE 2K20 will also be bringing back the popular Mixed Tag matches. Despite being part of WWE 2K18, Mixed Tag matches were absent from WWE 2K19. No reason for the mode’s absence was ever provided. Luckily, WWE 2K20 players will once again be able to mix and match their favorite WWE superstars regardless of whether they’re men or women....

As seen below, The Rock’s face appears to be very bland and has little-to-no definition. The Rock isn’t the only character on the roster to be drawn into question, but he does somewhat serve as the poster boy for the game’s models. It’s clear from the image that this doesn’t live up to current-gen graphical standards, and it doesn’t seem many in the WWE 2K20 community are okay with that....

In a new video focusing on the Roman Reigns 2K Tower in WWE 2K20, 2K Sports reveals that the tower is called Roman’s Reign. As expected, it focuses on Roman Reigns’ WWE career, with an interview from Reigns suggesting that Brock Lesnar could very well be the final boss. It seems as though the Roman Reigns 2K Tower will culminate at SummerSlam 2018, which is where Roman Reigns finally defeated Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship and ended The Beast’s dominant 504-day reign as champion....

As many know after all, WWE 2K20 was a low point for the franchise, so low that WWE 2K21 was skipped over to better build the next game. WWE 2K22 was a step in the right direction, but WWE 2K23 seems to be taking that even further, which is good for the franchise. Of course, while a lot more will be revealed in the coming months, one of the biggest questions right now is what the playable roster will be....

Moxley’s wife, Renee Young, took to Instagram and reacted to his title win. In case you didn’t know… Earlier this year, Jon Moxley ran down his contract and was released by WWE. Moxley appeared in his final WWE match at “The Shield’s Final Chapter” Network Special, which was headlined by The Shield vs Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley, and Baron Corbin. Merely days after he left WWE, Moxley posted a video on Twitter that showed him escaping a prison and embracing his original persona....

In case you didn’t know… Viper is one of the top female talents on the indies today having spent most of 2018 at the top of ICW’s women’s division and crushing it for World of Sports Wrestling. With that in mind, calling her one of wrestling’s hottest free agents might be an understatement. Before 2018, Viper appeared as Piper Niven in WWE’s first ever Mae Young Classic Tournament and she put in a fantastic showing, losing to Toni Storm in the semi-finals....

On the August 12 episode of Monday Night RAW, the commentary made the announcement that the fan-favorite tournament will be featured on next week’s episode of RAW. This will be the first time the King of the Ring tournament has been seen on WWE television since 2015 when “Bad News” Barrett won it. The tournament was created in 1985 and was an annual event until 2002. There wasn’t another tournament until 2006 when Booker T famously won and became King Booker....

The rain did come, but not enough to stop the game from dragging to its dull conclusion after four hours and four minutes. The Cubs’ 5-1 victory surely was worth that slog, to get their first triumph in the World Series since Game 6 in 1945, but not too much else was memorable about Wednesday night. There were good performances, sure, but it was a sloppy affair and one in which even the guy taking a no-hitter into the sixth inning didn’t look his very best — Arrieta kept falling behind in counts, but kept getting hitters out anyway....

A dominant display on Sunday had made it look as if all O’Sullivan had to do was turn up on the second day to win at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, as he led 12-5. But Trump hit back with a solid performance in the afternoon session as O’Sullivan played arguably his worst snooker of the tournament, to see his lead trimmed back to 14-11. However, in the evening session, O’Sullivan found his groove again and he swept Trump aside to triumph and match Stephen Hendry’s tally of seven world titles....

After a defiant start, India lost their way and were in trouble at 88 for 3. However, Kohli (44*) and vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane (29*) lifted India with a defiant half-century stand. India ended Day 2 of the WTC final at 146 for 3 in 64.4 overs. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Butt hailed Kohli for his application and reading the game situation very well. He said: Responding to a query on Kohli having hit only one boundary despite having faced 124 balls on Day 2 of the WTC final, Butt pointed out:...

Against New Zealand’s four-pronged seam attack and Colin de Grandhomme, India fielded three seamers and two spinning all-rounders in Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. Although Jadeja contributed with the bat, he looked surplus to requirements as a bowler on a pitch where seamers had the upper hand all along. Virat Kohli, however, said both spinners would have come into play had the weather allowed more days of cricket. He added that the team selection was a ‘unanimous decision’, considering the conditions at hand and the team’s batting depth....

A team of scientists from the University of California, Riverside (UCR) was behind the new discovery the university announced Wednesday. The research uncovered bizarre impacts that the worms have on their spider hosts prior to killing them, with strange tiptoeing behavior one of the documented side effects. They decided to name the spider-eating worm after the Hollywood star Jeff Daniels, famous for his roles in Dumb and Dumber, 101 Dalmatians and The Martian....
