Really was hyped up for The Undertaker's return, but his look plain old sucked !! They should of made his face more pail, add some shadow around his eyes to darken it up.. to acutally make him look dead. His outfit was just sad, it was the Biker with a cowboy hat on..

This is how the UNDERTAKER should of looked...

Outfit - Black shirt with torn off sleeves, cover up his Sara tattoo on his neck, just showing his arm tattoos is good enough, then have black pants to color match the torn shirt, with black boots, and a long black trenchcoat over top of it all.. with the black hat

Face - Make his face more white..looked like he had a sun tan.. make it white by putting face makeup on..and when black marks where his eyebrows are..to make it look more evil, some dark blak around his eyes..and some hair extensions, then soak his hair wet..

Accessories - A undertaker symbol cross hanging from his neck, and his old style gloves...that go up to his forearms...and put in white contacts in his eyes..to make it look even more dead..

Now if you agree with this..lets hear it , I am sending this idea to the WWE, and maybe they might just listen..

This is how he should of came down to the Ring..have Paul Bearer..leading the Druids..pushing a coffin down to the ring, with the blue spotlight follwing thier steps..then have Paul...take the Urn..and lift it to the sky..and have a lightining bold hit the coffin..and then it will be pushed open by the Undertaker, as he sits up...and the camera pans into it..and have a Mic for Paul saying OHHH YESS!!.....OHH YESS!!.....

Thats how it should of went down...not John Wayne walking down to the ring...

LoL LordLOC, i expect that too, a new image, some factions, better storylines and Vince letting be more competition in the market its what the wwe needs

Since there's only one worthy company in the market (the WWE, that almost isnt worthy anymore) there is not excitement in the game, he can thinks he can do whatever he wants and in bussiness terms i think he can.

Also, It was just me or Jesse "The Body" Ventura wants to be President in 2008? He was asking the Trumpster for support?? havent you guys heard the several " We must put a Wrestler in the White House by 2008 " thing?

yeah basically it "taking time off to pursuing his NFL career" thats in his own words... so wwe took him off their superstars roster, but bill greenburg is still on wwe's roster, hmmm... he may not be leaving after all... dammit!!! next week on raw is going to be interesting when there going to split everyone up again, will the champions be stripped of their titles... lets tune in a find out!!!

WrestleMania 20 was pretty cool , though in some of the matches i just wanted to change the channel (not the evening gown match) :devil: ;) the dead mans return rocked and seeing lesnar leave was even better raw is gonna be the best next week cant wait to see who will end up where

Yep toxikk, there is a draft

WRESTLEMANIA FALLOUT; THE END OF AN ERA

March 18, 2004

Expect a lot of uneasiness on SmackDown! this week as it will be the final SmackDown! as it is currently known. On RAW, Mr. McMahon dropped a bombshell when he announced that next week, every WWE Superstar will be in attendance at RAW for a lottery that will shake-up both the RAW and SmackDown! rosters and the very foundation of World Wrestling Entertainment as a whole. It will be the end of an era for SmackDown! as rivalries will end and new ones will be formed, partnerships could end -- as well as championship reigns ... depending on the luck of the draw. Watch SmackDown! to see the reactions of both Paul Heyman and the SmackDown! Superstars as this new day for WWE approaches.

Also, join SmackDown! from Boston for the first time after the WrestleMania extravaganza as we present all of the fallout from WrestleMania XX! John Cena is the new United States Champion after winning his first Championship in World Wrestling Entertainment by beating the Big Show at WrestleMania. Find out his reaction to the biggest win of his young career on SmackDown! Also, despite Kurt Angle's assertion that Eddie Guerrero is not fit to be WWE Champion, Latino Heat is still on top ... see what both competitors in that match have to say about one of the toughest battles of their careers.

Also on SmackDown!, last week, General Manager Paul Heyman went man-to-man to ask his Superstars to defend the integrity of SmackDown! against Stone Cold Steve Austin as Austin appeared at SmackDown! to reclaim his ATV and gain a measure of revenge on Heyman and Brock Lesnar. In an act of defiance, the Superstars of SmackDown! lined the entrance ramp to the ring while Heyman and Lesnar stood inside, only to let Austin through and then leave the arena. Subsequently, Lesnar was busted wide open thanks to Austin and Heyman received a Stunner. Was this a mutiny? Has Heyman lost control of his show? What will the upcoming lottery mean for the General Manager? Find out this week on SmackDown!

And also, Brock Lesnar its oficially leaving :D :D :D

Brock Lesnar opts to put WWE career on hold

Brock Lesnar has made a personal decision to put his WWE career on hold to prepare to tryout for the National Football League this season. Brock has wrestled his entire professional career in the WWE and we are proud of his accomplishments and wish him the best in his new endeavor.

I'm looking for the new logo stuff, seems to be true, but until i dont see a pic I wont believe it

IMO they are going to split raw and smackdown! toguether and then create a new company, or bring ECW or WCW back again, kinda like the Invasion's Era

Why would they do this? Why do they keep repeating old storylines that failed before? If they failed there was a reason. The story sucked. They better not try this again.

The reason they're doing the "lottery" is because RAW has far too many of the "top tier" performers, and with sending Chris Benoit to RAW (so they could do the Backlash PPV in Edmonton), and sending Edge to RAW to feud with Christian (which will now be the other way around, sending Christian and Trish to Smackdown to feud with Edge I believe), things were too lopsided.

This was before Brock Lesnar decided to wimp out, too.

I think this will even things out. I doubt they'll do things like split up the Dudleys, etc. I really hope they learned from the last split.

And frankly, I think having two seperate "brands" has been one of the better things done in years.

Oh my god, I just realized something.

You know, maybe it's possible that two things I have a gut feeling about will happen:

I have a serious feeling they're going to re-unify the title. The first person to come out and congratulate Benoit was the Latino Heat himself.

And they keep mentioning them together. So expect a title reunification soon. That's good, because there aren't enough top-tier performers for 2 champ belts.

And the second...there was talk before about re-establishing ECW. I just read the recap of Smackdown for this week (I know, it spols it reading about the tuesday tapings before Thursday), and Paul Heyman is all of a sudden acting weird. His whole actions of the past few weeks would lean towards having ECW reform, since WWE *did* buy all the rights finally (AFTER the invasion angle).

Hmmm.

Hmmm.

First off I agree that the redraft will even out the lop sided rosters now that Angle's out and Brock is gone.

The re-unification is unlikely. They tried that once and it failed miserably. I honestly believe the Eddy/Benoit thing was a true emotion and that Vince allowed these two labourers to have their moment together in the spotlight.

As for the ECW thing, I could see it happening but hope it doesn't. As I said before it failed once and it will again.

    • @Sayan...I have defended you at various points as I hope you know. This headline however is utter trash...shame on you sir!
    • An actual cosmic "Eye of Sauron" had been looking straight at us all along by Sayan Sen Image by Kovin P. Vasquez via Pexels | Not representative An international team of researchers has solved a long-standing mystery surrounding a distant blazar known as PKS 1424+240, helping explain why it produces some of the brightest high-energy gamma rays and cosmic neutrinos ever observed despite appearing to have a relatively slow-moving jet. The findings were published on June 6 in Astronomy & Astrophysics Letters. The study addresses a broader challenge in astrophysics: understanding how extreme cosmic objects accelerate particles to very high energies and produce very high-energy (VHE) photons and neutrinos. PKS 1424+240 is located billions of light-years from Earth. It has attracted attention for years because it is both a powerful source of VHE gamma rays and the brightest known neutrino-emitting blazar in the sky, according to observations by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. It is also associated with one of the strongest peaks in IceCube's nine-year neutrino sky map A blazar is a type of active galactic nucleus powered by a supermassive black hole that pulls in surrounding matter and launches jets of plasma moving close to the speed of light. What makes blazars unique is their orientation. One of their jets points almost directly toward Earth, making them appear exceptionally bright across the electromagnetic spectrum and allowing scientists to study some of the most extreme physical processes in the Universe. The scientists exclaimed it's like the 'Eye of Sauron' in deep space. Usually, the brightest gamma-ray-emitting blazars are expected to have jets that appear to move very quickly. However, radio observations of PKS 1424+240 suggested that its jet was moving much more slowly, creating a contradiction that became part of a long-running problem known as the "Doppler factor crisis." To investigate, researchers analyzed 15 years of observations from the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA), a network of 10 radio antennas spread across the continental United States, Hawaii and St. Croix. Using a technique called Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), astronomers combine signals from widely separated radio telescopes to create a virtual Earth-sized telescope capable of revealing extremely fine details. The team combined 42 polarization-sensitive radio images collected between 2009 and 2025, creating a much deeper and more detailed view of the jet than had previously been possible. The observations were carried out as part of MOJAVE (Monitoring Of Jets in Active galactic nuclei with VLBA Experiments), a long-running program that studies the brightness, polarization and magnetic field structures of jets produced by active galaxies. The project aims to better understand how activity near supermassive black holes is linked to high-energy radiation and neutrino emission. “When we reconstructed the image, it looked absolutely stunning,” said Yuri Kovalev, lead author of the study and Principal Investigator of the European Research Council-funded MuSES project at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy. “We have never seen anything quite like it — a near-perfect toroidal magnetic field with a jet, pointing straight at us.” The image revealed an unusual geometry. The researchers found that Earth lies almost directly in line with the jet, with a viewing angle of less than 0.6 degrees. In simple terms, astronomers are looking almost straight down the jet. This turned out to be the key to the mystery. Because the jet is aimed almost directly at Earth, a relativistic effect called Doppler boosting dramatically increases its apparent brightness. The study found that this effect boosts the emission by a factor of about 30 while also making the jet appear slower than it actually is. “This alignment causes a boost in brightness by a factor of 30 or more,” said Jack Livingston, a co-author at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy. “At the same time, the jet appears to move slowly due to projection effects — a classic optical illusion.” The nearly head-on view also gave scientists a rare look at the jet's magnetic field. Using polarized radio signals, they detected a clear toroidal, or doughnut-shaped, magnetic field component. The observations suggest the jet carries an electric current and that its magnetic field helps launch, shape and stabilize the flow of plasma. Researchers believe this magnetic structure may also play a key role in accelerating particles to energies high enough to produce both gamma rays and neutrinos. “Solving this puzzle confirms that active galactic nuclei with supermassive black holes are not only powerful accelerators of electrons, but also of protons — the origin of the observed high-energy neutrinos,” Kovalev said. The research was conducted under the MuSES (Multi-messenger Studies of Energetic Sources) project, which investigates how active galactic nuclei accelerate particles and generate different cosmic signals, including light and neutrinos. Scientists say understanding how protons are accelerated and linked to neutrino production remains one of the major unanswered questions in astrophysics. The findings help explain why some blazars can appear to have slow jets while still producing extremely bright high-energy emissions. More broadly, the study strengthens the link between relativistic jets, magnetic fields, gamma rays and high-energy neutrinos. Researchers say the results provide new clues about how some of the Universe's most powerful natural particle accelerators work and offer important insights for multimessenger astronomy, which combines different types of cosmic signals to study extreme events in space.

    • Microsoft Weekly: Surface Laptop Ultra, Windows 11 context menus, Build 2026 recap, and more by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft announcing the new Surface Laptop Ultra, fresh chips from NVIDIA for Windows on ARM, a no-build week, fixes for Windows 11's context menus, gaming news, reviews, and more. Quick links: Windows 10 and 11 Windows Insider Program Updates are available Reviews are in Gaming news Great deals to check Windows 11 and Windows 10 Here, we talk about everything happening around Microsoft's latest operating system in the Stable channel and preview builds: new features, removed features, controversies, bugs, interesting findings, and more. And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. At Computex 2026, together with NVIDIA, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its most powerful laptop to date, powered by NVIDIA's RTX Spark processor. Details about this computer are currently scarce, as Microsoft has only revealed certain parts of its specs. So far, we know that the computer has a 15-inch mini-LED display, a rich set of ports, a powerful processor, and all-day battery life. It also comes with a new wallpaper, which you can already download here in full resolution. The Surface Laptop Studio is not the only NVIDIA-powered Surface, which Microsoft unveiled this week. At Build 2026, the company also debuted the Surface RTX Spark Dev Box, an odd-shaped desktop with a 20-core NVIDIA Grace CPU and an NVIDIA Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores and fifth-generation Tensor Cores with FP4 precision, connected via the NVIDIA NVLink-C2C chip-to-chip interconnect for high performance. According to Microsoft, it can run models with up to 120 billion parameters locally without relying on cloud GPU infrastructure. These two new Surface devices are likely to cost quite a lot, and for those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is preparing the next-gen Qualcomm-powered Surface Pro and Surface Laptop. This week, details about these two devices leaked in plenty of detail. Other announcements at Build 2026 include the following: Microsoft unveils new security tools for IT admins and developers building AI products Microsoft announces Scout, an OpenClaw-powered personal agent for enterprise customers Microsoft unveils MAI-Thinking-1 reasoning and MAI-Code-1 coding models Microsoft announced a new Windows 11 native command-line utility Microsoft unveils Majorana 2 quantum chip, accelerating commercial timeline to 2029 Microsoft believes that AI agents will eventually replace apps through Project Solara Microsoft introduces Web IQ, a Bing-powered search system built for AI agents Last week, Microsoft released a new Experimental build, which introduced a major Start menu upgrade. It now lets you toggle off specific parts of the menu without affecting other features, resize the menu, and hide additional UI elements. We published a closer look here, so if you want to know what Microsoft is cooking without enrolling in the Insider program and installing unstable builds, check it out. Speaking of new features, many users are very annoyed about the way Microsoft delivers them. Recently, a frustrated user shared their experience with gradual rollouts, and even Microsoft engineers admitted there is a flaw in the system that prevents new features from applying properly. One of those new features includes the ability to uninstall AI models in Windows 11 with a single click. Windows 11 is finally getting fixes for its slow context menus. Marcus Ash from Microsoft confirmed that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are going to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." According to Marcus, Microsoft will share more details soon. Windows Insider Program Windows 11 preview builds, released last week, are now available for download as standalone ISO files. These days, Microsoft regularly pushes new images, allowing users to clean-install its recent Windows 11 preview builds faster and easier. If you want to try the latest Windows 11 features without jumping through the Windows Update hoops, get those new images here. Sadly, Microsoft did not release new Windows 11 preview builds this week. Come back next time. Updates are available This section covers software, firmware, and other notable updates (released and coming soon) delivering new features, security fixes, improvements, patches, and more from Microsoft and third parties. Microsoft is preparing new features for Teams. Later this month, the messenger will receive a new download manager with auto-dismissing notifications, reducing clutter and making the overall experience less annoying when dealing with downloads. Mozilla released Firefox 151.0.3, a new bug-fixing update for the browser. It is a small release, which fixes problems with pasting into text fields and the oversized VPN button on the toolbar. The update is now available for all users in the Release channel. Here are other updates and releases you may find interesting: VS Code 1.123 introduces massive upgrades for persistent AI developer workflows Microsoft OneDrive is getting a simple yet much-needed feature Microsoft faces heat after quietly blocking promised Office features on Apple systems Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs Browser vendors pen an open letter to Microsoft, saying "enough is enough" Here are the latest drivers and firmware updates released this week: AMD Radeon Software 26.6.1 with optimizations for F1 25: 2026 Season, World of Tanks: HEAT, and various bug fixes. Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week Steven Parker dropped more mini PC reviews this week. GEEKOM Air12 2026 Edition is a low-power, affordable computer with an Intel Tiger Lake Pentium Gold processor, up to 16GB of memory, and 512GB of storage, costing just $349. It is light, quiet, energy efficient, and has modern ports on the front. However, the front-facing USB Type-C is data-only, and there are some quirks with the computer's memory, so check out the full review. The AMD RX 9070 GRE has been released worldwide, and we published a benchmark review comparing this powerful graphics card to the RX 9070 XT, 7800 XT, the NVIDIA RTX 5070, and RTX 4070. It has solid, balanced performance, plenty of RAM, and low temperatures, but watch out for mediocre ray tracing performance and not the best efficiency. Also, we reviewed the Cuktech 10 Ultra, a compact, high-power charger with four ports and a big display full of various stats. This tiny charger can pull nearly 120W and spread that power according to each connected device's needs. It also comes with a high-quality 240W cable, three power modes, and retractable prongs. The best part? It is quite affordable, just make sure you have an outlet placed in the right spot to benefit from the built-in display. On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. Do you remember the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally, Microsoft's first handheld console designed in partnership with ASUS? This week, ASUS revealed a new version of the device to celebrate twenty years of its Republic of Gamers brand. The new ROG Xbox Ally X20 features an OLED display, a transforming D-Pad, TMR sticks, and other changes. However, the chip inside the console is still the same. Forza Horizon 6 launched last month to critical acclaim, but the game will soon have a new rival made by those who used to work on Forza Horizon titles. Mike Brown from Maverick Games announced Clutch, an upcoming racing game with a story-driven campaign, deep car customization, and rich multiplayer. The game is coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027. The next update for Minecraft now has a release date.
