The battle is held in remembrance of the over 7 feet Andre, whose real name is Andre Rene Roussimoff. Longtime nemesis, Hulk Hogan, established the Andre the Giant Battle royal for WrestleMania 30. The winner gets a life-sized trophy of the giant. In 2018 at WrestleMania 34, the first-ever Andre the Giant battle royal for female competitors took place. Naomi emerged victorious after eliminating Bayley. While it is a decent tribute to Andre the Giant, the match itself is not a popular one among the fans as well as the participants....

This year’s card leaves a lot of room for surprises even though it will be around seven or eight hours, including the pre-show. Elias’ concert leaves room for an interruption and who’s to say we won’t see our fair share of surprise results? The Mania card is looking pretty good right now but if any of these 5 things happen, it could make the show even better, or in some cases, significantly worse....

After restricting their opposition to just 151/7 in the 20 overs, Mohun Bagan’s innings was off to a flier as openers Saha and skipper Subhomoy Das sent the bowlers on a leather hunt right from the first ball of their innings. Saha was severe on them as he smashed the bowlers to every part of the ground and notched up his century off just 20 balls at a strike-rate of 510 with the help of four fours and 14 sixes....

On August 17 at around 8 p.m. the Frisco Police Department received multiple calls of gunfire at a Wendy’s restaurant in the 5500-block of Eldorado Parkway, according to a press release. Officers learned that a customer in the drive-thru was allegedly unhappy with their order and left their car to enter the fast-food restaurant and confront staff. After an argument, he allegedly returned to his car and got a pistol, which he fired into the front of the restaurant before fleeing the location....

Rahane didn’t last long either after a shorter delivery from Neil Wagner did him in. The Indian vice-captain had a solid start in the WTC final with a well-compiled 49 but missed out on a well-deserved fifty. Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin took over with the latter cracking 22 off 27 balls, striking three fours during his stay. But Tim Southee, who has had an out-of-sorts run so far, had him taken in the slip cordon by Tom Latham....

Ashwin reached the milestone when he dismissed opener Devon Conway (19) in the 18th over of New Zealand’s second innings of the WTC Final. The Kiwis were set a target of 139 by India to win the title. Ashwin kept India’s slender hopes alive by sending back the dangerous Conway with a delivery that curved in and skidded on to the pad. Earlier in the day, after the Indian pacers failed to get the early breakthrough, Ashwin gave India an opening by outfoxing Tom Latham (9) and having him stumped....

Current Global Force Wrestling star Chris Adonis recently spoke with CLICKON Sports, and Ringside News provided the transcript of the interview. One of the major topics they talked about was his release from the WWE and mention by CM Punk in a promo. In case you didn’t know… Adonis rejoined Global Force Wrestling in March this year as a babyface, until he turned on Moose in April. He had a previous stint with the company during their TNA days in 2015 where he competed in the King of the Mountain championship....

This has once again been the case, as a lot of stars have been linked with a move away from WWE. Many of these stars like Dean Ambrose and Sasha Banks are keen on leaving rather than the company wanting them to go, while stars like Nia Jax have unfortunately picked up long-term injuries. With that being said, the Money In The Bank pay-per-view builds a really strong platform for some new rivalries to be pushed....

“Brock Lesnar is right now out of all the WWE Superstars currently active the one that I want. That’s the match that I want,” Bryan said. “I think that match would be something different than the WWE Universe has ever seen. That’s the match that I’m gunning for.” Brock Lesnar secured an emphatic victory over John Cena after putting on a dominating show against the Cenation leader. And Bryan along with Cena are the two primary candidates to face Lesnar for the title considering Cena will have his rematch while Bryan never lost the titles as he was stripped off those belts in June....

As a result, WWE tried a pretty strange tactic to counter-program, opening the show with the main event to draw people in. Unfortunately, it left the rest of the show with a dead crowd and a “main event” to close the show that would barely be a main event at “Smackdown.” MORE: 47 photos of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson that fans will love The show opened with AJ Styles retaining the WWE World title over John Cena and Dean Ambrose in a triple threat match in what was clearly the match of the night....

Such a shakeup to a tried and true formula may have some fans worried, but 2K Games is taking every precaution to ensure that the final retail-ready product lives up to the hopes of all WWE fans. To do this, however, the company has decided to delay the launch of WWE 2K15 on Xbox One and PS4 – effectively pushing the game’s release on those systems to November 18, 2014 in North America and November 21, 2014 internationally....

Cleveland trailed by two runs in the eighth inning of Game 7 of the World Series, four outs away from having its season end with three straight losses after leading the series three games to one. Aroldis Chapman was on the mound for the Cubs, pumping slightly less than his usual triple-digit gas as Rajai Davis batted with Brandon Guyer, who had just driven home Jose Ramirez, on second base....

The Dodgers led by one run with two outs in the bottom of the ninth and had their closer, Kenley Jansen, on the mound. The Rays had runners on first base and second. Rays outfielder Brett Phillips had two strikes on him at the plate. Phillips sliced a liner to shallow center field, which scored the tying run from second. However, Dodgers centerfielder Chris Taylor reached down for the ball, which ricocheted off his glove and bounced toward right field....

The opening batsman spoke about how Kohli has been an inspiration and ‘idol’ for him since his early days in cricket and how the ‘pretty big moment’ of meeting him didn’t change a thing. In a video shared by the ICC, Shubman Gill talks about a few of his ‘Insta Memories.’ The first post is of the BCCI annual function 2014-15, where Virat Kohli bagged the first of his four Polly Umrigar Awards, and Shubman Gill won the Junior Cricketer of the Year for the second consecutive time....

Of course not. So when the Center for Consumer Freedom sent me (and probably scores of other reporters) a press release slamming yesterday’s New York Times story chronicling the high mercury levels the newspaper found in tuna sushi served in New York City restaurants and sold in upscale stores, I didn’t reflexively think, “oh, this is the group jump-started with a pile of money from a tobacco giant.” I didn’t think, “this is the group whose leader promised said tobacco company, Philip Morris, ’to unite the restaurant and hospitality industries in a campaign to defend their consumers and marketing programs against attacks from anti-smoking, anti-drinking, anti-meat, etc....

Today we go through each of the tanking specializations and determine what we believe are the best tank specs for Dragonflight....
