The WrestleMania 42 Card Is Finally Clear — And Cody Rhodes Made It Happen

The WrestleMania 42 card is coming into focus after a massive SmackDown.

WWE Elimination Chamber 2026: Nobody in the Writers’ Room Noticed They Ran the Same Promo Twice

Wwe Elimination Chamber 2026 Qualifiers Wrestling Event Promotional Graphic

One week before WWE Elimination Chamber 2026, the company’s creative team proved nobody reads each other’s scripts — running an identical promo twice in the same broadcast. Je’Von Evans shocked Gunther to qualify for the chamber. Kiana James did something even harder, pinning both Charlotte Flair and Nia Jax in a triple threat. AEW, by contrast, delivered a 5-star Kenny Omega vs Swerve Strickland match and is heading into Revolution 2026 with genuine stakes on the line.

Cody Wins WWE Elimination Chamber Qualifier—But All Three Are Going Anyway

Cody Wins Wwe Elimination Chamber Qualifier, Uncertain Outcome Ahead.

The WWE Elimination Chamber qualifier on SmackDown saw Cody Rhodes defeat Sami Zayn and Jacob Fatu after Kevin Owens interference, but nobody believes this is over—all three are probably ending up in the Chamber anyway. WWE announced major matches for Chicago: CM Punk defending against Finn Balor and Becky Lynch facing AJ Lee. But two months from WrestleMania 42, WWE still doesn’t have a clear night one main event. Jade Cargill retained against Jordan Grace in a rough title defense with multiple botched spots. The episode took an emotional turn when Dave opened up about the Montreal Expos, praising Ashkan Karbasfrooshan’s Project Peanut initiative and admitting he cried watching the Netflix documentary about bringing baseball back to Montreal. “I want them back so bad,” Dave said, voice cracking. It was a genuine moment that showed the human side of sports fandom.

On paper, this […]

Drew McIntyre WWE Champion: Why Triple H Finally Pulled the Trigger on Cody Rhodes

Drew Mcintyre Wwe Champion

My complaint about the WWE has been how slow-moving their creative is. How little happens from week to week. It really just becomes stale and kind of paint-by-numbers—obvious where they’re going. You watch every week knowing exactly what’s coming, and Drew McIntyre becoming the new WWE Champion on SmackDown in Berlin? I didn’t see that […]

Anaconda (2025) Review: Paul Rudd and Jack Black Can’t Save This Meta Snake Sequel

Anaconda (2025) Review

Director Tom Gormican’s Anaconda (2025) brings Paul Rudd and Jack Black to the Amazon for a meta horror-comedy where fans remaking the 1997 cult classic encounter an actual giant snake. The result? “Two movies in one,” as Johnny North explains—comedy first, horror second, neither fully committed. Rudd and Black’s chemistry elevates weak material, but tonal inconsistency, limited snake screen time, and a surface-level script land the film in forgettable territory. For die-hard franchise fans only.
