Sami Zayn experienced quite the journey in 2020, capturing the Intercontinental Championship and then returning to claim what he never lost on SmackDown. Since then he’s taken up a campaign against WWE, believing the company continues to stack the deck against him and going so far as to chain himself to a barricade, hold up his Justice For Sami signs, and bringing along a documentary crew to film it all. If that all sounds incredibly entertaining, well, it very much is, and Zayn seems to be having a blast not only with his character but also in the ring....

Rick Remender and André Lima Araújo’s new Image Comic series has been a five star title since its first issue and the third continues its streak of perfect scores at ComicBook.com. Telling the tale of an unassuming man that finds himself drawn into the underground world of dark web assassins and wealthy exhibitionists, A Righteous Thirst for Vengeance came out of the gates swinging and hasn’t stopped throwing hands as Remender and Araújo have clearly planned out every corner of this world....

Apex Legends got a beefy set of patch notes ahead of the release of the game’s next update with those notes addressing a couple of the most common requests from players. Caustic got nerfed to make the Legend and his gaseous devices less oppressive, the Mastiff was adjusted so that it potentially won’t change the course of a fight with just two well-placed shots, and the lanky Pathfinder no longer has the Low Profile debuff that causes him to take more damage....

It turns out Ric Flair wasn’t the only major wrestling star who traveled to Mexico City for AAA’s Triplemania. “The Nature Boy” made a surprise appearance during Saturday night’s show to accompany Andrade El Idolo for his AAA Mega Championship match with Kenny Omega, and even wound up getting involved just before “The Cleaner” managed to put the challenge away with a One-Winged Angel. It turns out Charlotte Flair was in attendance for the show as well, as confirmed by Konnan’s Twitter account....

James Gunn clarified a statement about his future with Marvel and DC. Online, fans have been wondering what will be next for the Guardians of the Galaxy director after Vol. 3 hits theaters. On the DC side of things, Peacemaker got greenlit for a second season. But, no one knows if he’s got another movie in the works with Warner Bros. Discovery. He took to Twitter to clear the air. The beloved filmmaker obviously has something in the works somewhere, but the public will know about that when it’s ready....

The date was revealed in a tweet from the Ted Lasso Twitter account, along with the message that, “I always hear the question: who let the dogs out (who who who who)?

The Batman actress posted about the movie being out in theaters right now and the former women to wear the mask had some encouragement. Both posted some emojis but Berry also commented, “yassssssss!!! Can’t wait… meow!” It’s always fun to see people who played the part before support the next actor up.

Xbox fans over on Twitter are calling for the end of Xbox Live Gold. Today, Microsoft revealed February’s Games With Gold lineup or, in other words, the “free” Xbox One and Xbox 360 games Xbox Live Gold subscribers are getting next month. Suffice to say, the very underwhelming lineup of Xbox games prompted some backlash, though not as much as you would expect as many Xbox Live Gold subscribers have been conditioned to be underwhelmed after months and months and months of lackluster offerings....

Now, however, the animals of the adorable line are crossing over with the dark figures from Attack On Titan for new merchandise, and the crossover has shared a number of new images that see the soldiers of the Scout Regiment joining forces with the biggest characters from Sanrio....

The CW’s Batwoman has officially been cancelled after three seasons. The news was broken on Friday in a tweet by showrunner Caroline Dries, who confirmed that the show “will not be seeing a S4” and that she is “bummed, but full of gratitude.” This comes after several weeks of debate and speculation regarding the future of the show, which wrapped its most season in early March of this year, but had not been among the series initially renewed by the network for the 2022-2023 season....

The trailer for Sony Pictures’ Bullet Train was released at the beginning of the month, and it got filmgoers excited to see the latest entry from Deadpool 2 and Atomic Blonde director, David Leitch. The movie has since been pushed back until July, taking over the release date that originally belonged to Black Adam.

Between the underwhelming reactions to the previous film, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, and the growing backlash to real-life figures involved in the franchise, which resulted in a major character being recast, odds surely aren’t in the favor of Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore earning acclaim. Being the halfway point of the planned five-film series, the fate of the series surely isn’t riding on the success of this film, as the Wizarding World has enough of a following to guarantee the completion of this prequel narrative, but Secrets of Dumbledore could surely kill any interest among audiences if it’s as disappointing as its predecessor....

Genshin Impact’s upcoming Version 2.2 update, “Into the Perilous Labyrinth of Fog,” is set to release in just a few short days on October 13th, and ahead of that, developer miHoYo has lifted the curtain somewhat on upcoming characters set to join the video game’s playable roster. More specifically, miHoYo has shared new information about Gorou, Canine Warrior, and Arataki Itto, the First and Greatest Head of the Arataki Gang....

Green Arrow’s legacy in the DC universe is a funny thing. Despite being one of the publisher’s most consistently published characters — and one of the few who survived the drastic reboots and remakes between the Golden and Silver Ages largely intact — he hasn’t always possessed the same prominence as DC’s other mainstay characters. While a certain eight-season television series may have given a subset of fans their own set of preconceived notions about the Emerald Archer, the pages of DC Comics have proved that there’s much more to him that deserves to be honored and appreciated....
