So Cena's big announcement is that he will be in the MITB match? Uh...alright. For the love, can WWE please learn that the entire audience hates Vickie with a passion. And it isn't the good kind of heat, it is honest dislike...nobody likes that annoying bitch.

Go Jericho in MITB! I hope he wins.

Money in the Bank's shaping up to be diabolical. A MITB match with all former WWE champions? F**k that! The whole point of the MITB match is to give a midcard superstar his push to the top and his first world title reign (CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, etc.).

And only can the divas have a battle royal last less than four minutes. What was the point of that match, anyway? If the winner got a Divas title shot (would have been a perfect opportunity to put the title on AJ!), then I wouldn't be complaining about it, but it was just a bathroom break-type match (usually whenever Heath Slater is jobbing to regular superstars, not legends like he is right now).

OK, get in predictions for which legend Heath Slater will be jobbing to next! I'll go with Gangrel. :p

Brings up an interesting point though; why is WWE PG if almost 3/4 of their audience are over 21?

Because if they aren't PG, they risk losing that other quarter, but if they are PG, they can have both the quarter and the three quarters. Most over 21s won't boycott WWE just because it isn't PG, but some (perhaps many) parents might not let their kids watch it if it isn't PG. I think it shouldn't be PG, though :p

It's being reported that former WWE and WCW star Bill Goldberg reached out to Brock Lesnar to discuss a potential angle between the two of them that would see Goldberg make his return to pro wrestling.

One problem, however, is that Brock Lesnar only has two major dates left on his WWE deal, one with Triple H at SummerSlam, and the other with his opponent at WrestleMania.

It was pretty much a rhetorical question. :p I knew that was the reason they switched to PG back when Linda first attempted to run for senate in 2008 (and failed spectacularly) to try and avoid critics using WWE as a weapon against her, but guess what, that failed. :p

Maxine reportedly quits WWE; frustrated with officials

Maxine, who's been seen mostly on WWE NXT and a few Raw appearances, including Monday's Battle Royal, has quit the company and is gone, according to WWE sources.

The word making the rounds is that she had been frustrated with a number of things, including not being offered a guaranteed deal and not having the chance to prove herself on TV beyond the WWE NXT level.

Maxine, real name Karlee Perez, signed a WWE developmental deal in 2009. After wrestling for Florida Championship Wrestling, she was brought up to NXT for the all Divas third season. She returned to NXT as part of the retribution season four and became involved in a triangle with Derek Bateman and Johnny Curtis.

Sucks if this is true. She's actually fairly enjoyable on NXT outside of the ring (she makes a good heel). So instead of pushing her and convincing her to stay, they keep Kelly Kelly, who's done jack s**t in recent months, and (as we all know) can't wrestle.

If she goes, let's hope she joins TNA. She might stand a chance of getting some proper TV time there.

      I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.

      Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
