In an update on Dave Batista's future with WWE, it's being reported that Batista will not just be coming back for a short time or even just part-time. The former World Champion is expected to stick around for maybe a few more years, although he is expected to take some time off around the summer to promote his movie.

So as of right now, "The Animal" is expected to have a full-time run with WWE for a couple years.

WWE Hall of Famer Edge returned to Chris Jericho?s ?Talk Is Jericho? podcast this week for the second part of their interview. During the show, the two revealed some interesting news about the year John Cena squashed Nexus at SummerSlam. The original plans called for the match to come down to Edge and Jericho vs. Nexus, however, John Cena squashed the idea and decided to he would be the last man standing, taking out both Wade Barrett and Justin Gabriel. Cena would later regret the decision.

 

 

Chris Jericho: ?It was Team WWE vs. Team Nexus, and the finish boiled down to [Edge] and [Jericho] in there, but it was Cena against a couple of them. John wanted to do things a certain way and we told him ?you?re wrong?. He did it anyways, and it sucked. And then after he came over to us and said ?I should have listened to you, but I wasn?t seeing it that way.??

Edge: ?I remember. I was like, fine I?m out of the match by that point.?
 
Chris Jericho: ?He wanted to get DDT?d on the floor by Barrett, then kick out and beat them both. And you and I were like, that?s the dumbest thing. That?s just throwing it away for no reason.?
 
Edge: ?They should have gone over because they were so hot.?
 
Chris Jericho: ?We were fighting for Barrett to go over. And where?s Wade Barrett now??

 

Edge also spoke out about why he was successful the first time he won the WWE Championship from John Cena, and how Vince McMahon played a big role in that success.
 
?I had Vince on my side. Vince was the only guy who believed I could break through ? The week before New Year?s Revolution I said ?Vince I got an idea. I?m a heel. I?m probably the most despised guy in the company. If I cash this thing in after I?ve held it for ten months, in a straight-up match, that?s really stupid on my part, as a character. I can cash it in whenever. Why wouldn?t I do it after the Elimination Chamber?? ? ?I get there and Vince says, ?prove me right.? You can see when I hand that briefcase over to him, he says ?prove me right?. They were only gonna give me three weeks. But in those three weeks I did everything I could to make them change their mind. 25 million hits on WWE.com the night I won the title. Big ratings.?

Beast Incarnate is back!

Next week's WWE Smackdown is being taped in Washington, D.C. tonight. During one of the backstage segments, Renee Young talked to Big E Langston. Langston talked about how Brock Lesnar attacked Mark Henry on Raw. Langston would then challenge Brock Lesnar to a match on Raw for the following week, which would be January 6th. We are unsure if Lesnar was seen attacking Henry, but that is what it seems to have been said. If this is true, Brock Lesnar will be returning to WWE Raw tomorrow night.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By C:Amie · Posted

      Yay, a forced new tab telling everyone edge just updated with a load of advertising in it twice as often as we currently get it. That'll never be abused. 😏

      I recently tried edge. It seems a lot better. A lot of the junk in it is gone. It seems less bloated and snappy.
    • Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns

      By zikalify · Posted

      Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels The UK consumer rights organization, Which?, is claiming that “potentially lethal knock-off chargers” are still being sold on online marketplaces seven years after it exposed the danger of these chargers. In its latest investigation, it bought 15 USB phone chargers from several online marketplaces and found they were missing key information, meaning they cannot be legally sold in the UK. Which? bought the 15 chargers from seven online marketplaces. These were Amazon (including Amazon Haul), AliExpress, B&Q Marketplace, Debenhams Marketplace, and eBay. It said that the chargers were so badly made that anyone using them was at risk of electric shock. Over half the chargers also posed fire and explosion risks. Of the chargers purchased, one was a fake Apple USB-C 35W power adaptor charger. To confuse buyers, the box was branded with an Apple logo, but testing found it to be a fake. Further testing picked up arcing sounds after 10 seconds of use, where a current jumps between two parts of the electrical circuit, which can cause fires, explosions, or electric shock. The manufacturers of this particular charger also put modeling clay inside it to make it feel more weighty, robust, and genuine. Not all of the chargers were technically faulty; however, some were missing key packaging, markings, and documentation, meaning they can’t be sold in the UK legally. Which? said that it is now campaigning alongside a coalition of safety groups and businesses for new laws that make online marketplaces responsible for ensuring the safety of products that they choose to list on their websites. It also said the government needs to start using powers under the Product Regulation and Metrology Act, which was adopted last July, to impose safety requirements on online marketplaces via secondary legislation, but so far, there have been delays. No matter what country you are in, be sure to properly research what you are buying and only buy authentic chargers to prevent fires. You can read more about Which?’s research here.
