Thought Joe Hennig Michael McGillicutty Curtis Axel would be getting more love on here.

I find it curious that Heyman "employs" both Lesnar and the son of the man who Lesnar got fired and indirectly lead to the death of.

I'm certain it was a drunken Curt Hennig whom instigated the fight, hence why he was released.

I hate the fact he billed him as a new star and he's been around for years in WWE, I see Trips was quickly out there to bury him...it could be swerve though

But in all seriousness if anyone can get him over and get somewhere its Heyman

I was asleep when it was live. :p It was a nice surprise. Was confused over the name for a second, then I realised where it came from: obviously, Curtis comes from his father Curt Hennig, and Axel from his grandfather, Larry "The Axe" Hennig.

Have to say the ending was a bit surreal. On the bright side though, technically in his debut match, Curtis Axel beat Triple H by countout. ;)

The intro was top-notch, which is unbelievable considering it was Ryback! :p

Indeed it was. Hennig got released for that fight on the plane ride from hell.

Triple H has been high on Curtis Axel, the former Michael McGillicutty, for a long time now. He appears to be the one behind Axel's current push but the way Axel was booked on RAW left some people wondering.

Axel has another big supporter - The Rock. Rock and Axel trained together to prepare for Rock's most recent WWE pay-per-view matches.

SEScoops.com can confirm that Adam Rudman, the most recent head writer on the creative team, is already gone from the company.

Rudman was brought in just six weeks ago to replace Eric Pankowski (who left before WrestleMania and now works at CBS) and was let go by Stephanie McMahon late last week.

Rudman was well-liked by talent, spoke with them regularly and was open to their ideas. However, his lack of wrestling knowledge prior to joining WWE was seen by many as a sign that he wouldn?t last long.

BRITISH Wrestling legend Mick McManus has passed away at the age of 93.

One of the biggest names in the history of the business, and long-term star of ITV?s World of Sport, McManus truly was the man who fans loved to hate.

Frank Rimer, who runs the British Wrestlers Reunion, said: ?I am deeply saddened to announce the death of the legend that was Mick McManus, who passed away at 1am this morning.

?Mick never recovered from the loss of his beloved wife Barbara and lost the will the live, despite the loving care of the nurses at the celebrity home for retired actors Brishing House where he lived out his final days.

?Even the arrival of his old friend Lord Richard Attenborough recently, failed to lift his spirits, refusing all food and drink until he quietly slipped into a coma three days ago.

?Mick was without doubt, through his own efforts, the greatest wrestling name that the UK has ever seen or will see again, and even 25 years after his retirement, he retained his aura of stardom until the end. He was 93.?

Tributes have already started pouring in on social media, with TNA Wrestling: British Boot Camp star Marty Scurll posting: ?RIP Mick McManus, the greatest British wrestling villain in history.

?I was fortunate enough to meet Mick a few times. True gent. Sad day.?

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
