WWE Hall of Famer Rocky Johnson passes away #MMBWWE

The wrestling world is saddened to learn that Rocky “Soul Man” Johnson (born Wayde Douglas Bowles), a WWE Hall of Famer, former World Tag Team Champion, and father of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, has passed away at age 75.

Johnson’s sports-entertainment career began in the mid-1960s when he made a memorable impression in the National Wrestling Alliance. However, Johnson found his highest levels of success when he began his WWE tenure in 1983.

The physically imposing and wildly charismatic Johnson had several memorable rivalries with the likes of Greg “The Hammer” Valentine, Don Muraco and Adrian Adonis. He found his greatest success when he teamed up with Tony Atlas as The Soul Patrol. The two men became the first African-American World Tag Team Champions in WWE history when they defeated The Wild Samoans on Dec. 10, 1983.

The “Soul Man” retired from the ring in 1991, but his imprint continued to be felt on WWE for years to come. Post-retirement, Johnson had a hand in training his son, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The Rock would become one of the biggest stars in the history of sports-entertainment and carried on his father’s legacy with pride.

In 2008, Johnson achieved the highest honor in sports-entertainment when he was inducted by The Rock into the WWE Hall of Fame where he will be forever enshrined as one of sports-entertainment’s most influential performers.

We extend our condolences to Johnson’s family, friends and fans.

AEW to Expand to Two Nights a Week With New Multi-Year TNT Deal #MMBAEW

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is expanding its footprint on TNT.

The upstart pro wrestling promotion has signed a new multi-year deal with TNT that will keep it on the air through 2023. In addition, AEW will launch a new weekly show to go alongside its already-launched series “Dynamite,” which airs Wednesdays on the cabler.

“When we launched AEW one year ago, we wanted to start a revolution that would disrupt the wrestling business, but everyone said that it would take a strong weekly television partner to make AEW real in the eyes of everyone – above all, the fans,” said Tony Khan, president and CEO of AEW. “What virtually no one realized at the time was Kevin Reilly and TNT were committed to this very same movement from Day One, and their belief in us made it possible for AEW to think and act big from the start. Here we are, only four months into ‘Wednesday Night Dynamite,’ and now we’ve been extended through 2023! We’re now making the ultimate statement that the team of AEW and TNT is here to stay and to bring fans more of the great wrestling that the fans demand and deserve.”

“Dynamite” launched on TNT in October. The series has proven popular with wrestling fans and is currently averaging 1.2 million viewers per episode with 654,000 in adults 18-49 in the Nielsen Live+7 ratings.

“When Tony Khan first shared with me his idea of starting a new wrestling league, I was impressed by his audacity to go up against a contender that has been the only game in town for twenty years, and ultimately believed that together we could bring his vision for a new, authentic, gritty product to bear,” said Kevin Reilly, chief content officer, HBO Max and president of TNT, TBS, and truTV. “The fans have spoken and after only three months, we have seen AEW shake up the wrestling world and this will only continue as we build upon this momentum.”

AEW is headlined by Cody and Brandi Rhodes, Chris Jericho, Jon Moxley, The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson), Kenny Omega and “Hangman” Adam Page. The roster also includes top competitors including Nyla Rose, Awesome Kong, Dustin Rhodes, Jungle Boy, Dr. Britt Baker, MJF, Pac and SCU. In addition to being in-ring talent, Cody, The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega also serve as executive vice presidents with Brandi serving as chief brand officer.

WarnerMedia announced in May 2019 that it was working with AEW to build the promotion into a global pro-wrestling franchise. WarnerMedia has also been offering fans exclusive access to AEW’s pay-per-view matches via B/R Live. Their next event, “Revoultion” takes place in Chicago on Feb. 29 and will also stream on the platform.

Tessa Blanchard Makes History By Becoming First Female Impact World Champion #MMBImpact

What started out as what could be a history making weekend for Tess Blanchard saw allegations of bullying and racism but ended up being historic as she became the first female Impact World Champion defeating Sami Callahan at Impact's Hard To Kill.

Many wondered if the allegations made by fellow female wrestlers online would shadow her accomplishment or worse yet force Impact to make some decisions on the ending of the PPV. There is still more to be discovered about the allegations but none the less she indeed made history and it will be interesting to see what happens from here on out. Until then congratulations Tessa on becoming the first Impact World Champion.

Formerly known as Project Scarlett, The Game Awards has brought us the world premiere trailer for the next console from Microsoft. Branded as the New Xbox Series X it changes up every preconceived notion we have of consoles. Looking more like a PC tower than anything before it, including other PC towers. Check out the trailer below.

The Series X is set to release in the Holiday season of 2020. It promises to be the most powerful console ever with four times the processing power of the Xbox One X and will be backwards compatible with three generations of Xbox consoles. The controller has more or less remained the same though Microsoft has said it is also improved. The biggest addition being the share button that allows quick and instance access to sharing photos and videos of your games on social media.

Talinda Bennington, the widow of Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington, remarried over the weekend, but she ended up taking to Twitter to respond to some critical tabloid reports.


TMZ and other outlets ran stories pointing out how her wedding date was close to her anniversary of wedding Chester. Talinda wrote the following:

“With joy and love I want to set something straight. ON JANUARY 4th, I wed a wonderful man, great friend, and son this weekend. We celebrated with all of our family and friends on the beautiful island of O’ahu. The day we chose was a day of meaning, in many different ways…My anniversary w/Chester, wasn’t my new wedding date. Jan 1st will always be the day I married Chester. I would never paint over that day with anything else. To the tabloids who ran a false story, inciting misguided anger & pain, I ask you FOR WHAT?? To make money?? To make money off of a false headline should be criminal. SHAME ON YOU @TMZ and any other that has repeated the story.”

Talinda went public with her engagement to Michael Fredman, an L.A. County firefighter, in September 2019.

With joy and love I want to set something straight. ON JANUARY 4th, I wed a wonderful man, great friend, and son this weekend. We celebrated with all of our family and friends on the beautiful island of O’ahu. The day we chose was a day of meaning, in many different ways. Cont.. pic.twitter.com/jziN4lBjS4
