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.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By zikalify · Posted

      UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels A few months ago, Neowin reported that the UK was trialing a social media ban with 300 teenagers for six weeks, that testing has come to an end, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced that the country will ban under-16s from social media. Starmer said that this technology is making children unhappy and making it easier for bullies to harass and abuse them. He continued to talk about the addictive nature of social media, saying that it uses an infinite scroll designed to lock users in for hours. He said this interferes with children doing their homework, reading, playing with friends outside, and going to bed on time. Tackling the idea that nothing can be done about social media, Starmer said: The government’s action won’t stop at social media either, the PM said. It plans to take action on gaming services and livestreaming platforms. Right now, he said, strangers can contact any child unchecked. He said this wouldn’t happen in real life, and the government is going to stop it from happening online, too. The Labour government has overseen the introduction of the Online Safety Act, a big change to the internet which includes age verification on adult websites. This has led to a fair bit of backlash, but overall, the government is pushing ahead with these changes.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival

      By Steven P. · Posted

      HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

      I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.
