This week, The Usos took on Daniel Bryan and Erick Rowan for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships. The two teams went back and forth in a match that was a thrilling affair in every sense. It ended with a big move from Rowan, who picked up the titles on behalf of his team. So, now we have brand new champions and the tag team division of SmackDown Live has changed for good at long last....
It’s always surprising when a major title change happens on regular weekly WWE programming, but the way this title change happened makes it even more surprising. The heel duo attacked the Revival backstage and replaced them in the match. But, why did the WWE put the title belts on Ziggler and McIntyre? Here are five reasons for the company to do so! #5 The B Team had run their course as champions The Raw tag team division has been somewhat of a joke which is exactly how a novelty comedy duo like Dallas and Axel found themselves rising to the top of it, and even claiming its top prize....
The Premier League club had reportedly agreed to terms with the 25-year-old. However, Carlo Ancelotti and the Bundesliga champions came in at the 11th hour to secure a two-year loan with the option to buy in 2019. Reports suggested that United would have bought the playmaker outright, and so the Old Trafford may have dodged a bullet given the rumoured £70 million fee, but surely, like Bayern, they could have negotiated a loan deal with an option to buy – a win for both parties....
All the 10 teams have been trying to find their best combinations and players that will play a vital role in those conditions. The Indian team are no exception to this as they will be looking to win the World Cup for the third time (Previously won in 1983 and 2011). After having won the 2011 edition, four years later, India lost to the eventual champions and the hosts Australia in the semi-final....
Sure he’s got the experience to hold the strap, but he always just feels like the safe option for the WWE to go with, as opposed to a guy who has earned the right to be called champion. Of course, many will still choose to complain about Mahal’s rise to the top, but those are also the same people who complain about the company not building enough future stars....
Turns out, that it was only an act because Sheamus hit Drew McIntyre with a Brogue Kick. Let’s be honest. As much fun as the moment was, it was one that we saw coming from many miles away. So, why did WWE choose to have Sheamus go heel when he was showcased as Drew McIntyre’s only ally and good friend? Here are 5 reasons why this storyline happened, and we invite you to chime in with your own reasoning in the comments below....
In a sport like MMA though, it was always going to be just a matter of time before another rival promotion sprung up. Surprisingly, it wasn’t a new venture, but rather the growth of an existing, smaller promotion. Founded in 2008 by Bjorn Rebney, Bellator MMA had been floating along rather harmlessly from a UFC perspective, despite being bought out by media giants Viacom in 2011. But in 2013 the promotion began to air on the former home of the UFC – Spike TV – and when former StrikeForce promoter Scott Coker took over the helm in 2014, suddenly Bellator was on the UFC’s radar big time....
They lost the match by a whopping innings and 159 runs to go down 2-0 in the series. The Indian batsmen were no match for the English bowlers, with all of them namely James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Sam Curran, and Chris Woakes performing well. The fast bowlers did so well that Adil Rashid was not used at all. After the first two Tests, a lot of questions have arisen over Virat Kohli’s captaincy....
There are some players in this world who just can’t be hated for many reasons and Ronaldinho is one of them. This is a man who got a standing ovation from the fans of eternal rivals, Los Merengues, at the Bernabeu for desecrating the Whites. On that day, he was unstoppable and the Madridistas could do nothing but applaud the genius of the Brazilian. A lot of players will come and go, but there won’t be another like Ronaldinho – and here are 5 reasons why I love Ronaldinho as much as I love pasta…...

While those three words used to incite cheers from The WWE Universe a decade ago, it is now the rallying cry of two old men who have no business being in the ring. Furthermore, it is a cheap use of a reunion tour on WWE’s part and it should have no place in today’s WWE landscape. Of course this might have been a semi decent feud if three of the four men involved in the storyline could actually still compete, but they don’t seem to be able to any more....
The 38-year-old announced his international retirement towards the end of 2021. His last match for New Zealand was an ODI against the Netherlands in Hamilton in April this year. The right-handed batter finished his illustrious international career with 112 Tests, 236 ODIs and 102 T20Is. Taylor holds the record for having scored the most number of runs for New Zealand in international cricket. In 450 matches across the three formats of the game, he amassed 18,199 at an average of 42....
Traditionally, for building the pecs, people often turn towards compound exercises and strength training as these exercises tone the pecs along with a slew of other stabilisation muscles for a more balanced training program. However, one need not always train with free weights and could build a muscular chest in the comfort of their homes by performing specific bodyweight workouts that tone the pecs with equal intensity. Nevertheless, before starting any chest workout, keep in mind to perform proper warm-up exercises that flex the muscles and improve blood circulation to the pecs, which goes a long way towards reducing the risk of an injury....
Last year, a total of 10 Superstars/teams moved to SmackDown Live when WWE mixed up the rosters after WrestleMania 34, with SAnitY, Andrade and Zelina Vega among those to join the blue brand from NXT. The Superstar who has had the most success since swapping Monday nights for Tuesday nights last year is arguably Asuka. Granted, “The Empress of Tomorrow” has had ups and downs as a member of the SmackDown Live roster, but she has still main-evented a pay-per-view, TLC 2018, in that time and established herself as one of WWE’s most popular women....
Daley Blind The Dutch international is a perfect fit for Manchester United due to his versatility. Able to play adequately at left-back, centre-back and defensive midfield he is the almost the perfect utility man. He comes for an environment that is very similar to that of Manchester United for pressure, expectations are arguably higher at Ajax as a result of their domination of the league Therefore, there would be no problems raised about how he would cope in a pressure filled dressing room....
The show also saw Hangman Page become the #1 contender for the AEW World title by winning the Casino Battle Royale. The main event of the night ended with Chris Jericho defeating longtime nemesis, Kenny Omega, to earn a shot at the title. AEW’s next big show, All Out, is almost on the horizon. It will take place at the Sears Centre Arena in the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates, Illinois, on August 31, 2019....
The sport gained eminence following the birth of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the premier organization in Mixed Martial Arts in the world; so much so that the uninitiated often confuse UFC and MMA to be the same. But how did the success come about? What draws people to this violent form of competition, making it one of the greatest sports of all time? Over the years, with some changes in the rules of combat, MMA has evolved into a mainstream combat sport and urbanized itself into a tremendously flourishing industry, almost taking over the prestigious and widely renowned sport of boxing....

He lost the WWE World title to Seth Rollins clean at Money in the Bank and followed that up with another loss in a triple threat match vs Rollins and Ambrose at Battleground. The next night on Raw, he lost clean yet again to a debuting Finn Balor before ultimately feuding with Rusev over the United States Championship. But now, Reigns has lost the U.S. title to Chris Jericho, and it conveniently happened just in time for him to challenge for Kevin Owens’ Universal title....
Both of the veterans brought the pace of the show down to a grinding halt. While they put on a solid match, they were only a shadow of the performers they once were. And it was clear this was The Undertaker’s fault. I saw Triple H take on Jinder Mahal at the WWE Live Event in New Delhi last year and he did seem fine. On the other hand, The Undertaker is a much reduced performer, owing to his age and the bumps and bruises he’s sustained along the way for our entertainment and viewing pleasure....
