"My own time might not be far off," says WWE star after John Cena and AJ Styles announce retirement
Two of the greatest WWE Superstars, John Cena and AJ Styles, are set to hang up their wrestling boots in the coming time. The duo could soon be joined by another major name who has hinted that he's in the twilight phase of his wrestling career.John Cena is currently amid his retirement tour and has just 4 appearances left on WWE programming. The Cenation Leader will don his wrestling boots for the last time on December 13. Meanwhile, AJ Styles has also made it clear that he will be retiring next year. The Phenomenal One even bid farewell to the Japanese fans at the December 18 live event in Tokyo, confirming that he has wrestled in his last match in the Land of the Rising Sun.Shinsuke Nakamura, who was also in action at the aforementioned house show, sent an emotional message after the event. The King of Strong Style showed love for his home country."What a special place Japan is. especially for those of us who wrestle. As AJ said, it’s a place worthy of giving everything you’ve got. Of course, that’s true anywhere in the world… but there’s something sacred here. I don’t know if it’s because I’m Japanese, but I believe the wrestlers and fans who shared this space all felt the same. Maybe."Nakamura also mentioned that while he has some things left to do, his in-ring career is nearing its end."John Cena, AJ — they’ve all chosen to step away from the ring. It reminds me that my own time might not be far off. But I still have things I must do. I’m still struggling, still fighting, not knowing what tomorrow will bring. All I can do is live this day with everything I have. Thank you. If only… one more time…"John Cena and AJ Styles wrestled against each other for the last time at WWE Crown JewelAJ Styles vs. John Cena is one of the greatest rivalries in WWE history.

Ian Rapoport reveals Dolphins' stance on Jaylen Waddle trade ahead of Week 7 game vs. Browns
NFL insider Ian Rapoport revealed where the Miami Dolphins stand regarding Jaylen Waddle's future with the franchise. The veteran wide receiver has ignited trade rumors amid a 1-5 start to the season that has seen Tua Tagovailoa struggle, Tyreek Hill suffering a season-ending injury and Mike McDaniel reportedly on the hot seat. Waddle could be on the move amid a disappointing season, with the New York Giants being mentioned as a potential landing spot for the five-year veteran. Rapoport shared the latest intel around the league on Saturday, revealing that the Dolphins aren't actively looking to ship Waddle. "Several teams have called the Dolphins about star wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, and sources say those teams have been told Miami has no interest in trading him. Similar to Simmons for Tennessee, dealing Waddle would signal a look to the future rather than trying to win now. While things can change, it seems far more likely Miami would be willing to deal an edge rusher (perhaps Matt Judon, Bradley Chubb or even Jaelan Phillips)," Rapoport wrote. Jaylen Waddle has played in all six Dolphins games this season, catching 29 passes for 390 yards and three touchdowns. Without Hill on the field, he should see more targets moving forward, but his future could be away from Florida if the current situation explodes.Jaylen Waddle ignited trade speculation with cryptic post featuring BillsThe rumors surrounding Jaylen Waddle started when the 26-year-old wideout posted a cryptic photo on social media. Waddle shared a carousel post on Instagram ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Cleveland Browns, which included a picture of himself walking on the field with the Buffalo Bills logo on the back.Before that, Waddle had been strongly linked with a move to the New York Giants. The NFC East franchise is reportedly looking to add a wide receiver to pair with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart after second-year receiver Malik Nabers suffered a season-ending injury.The Bills have struggled to find a true WR1 this season, as Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer have failed to rise to the occasion. Time will tell how this situation ends, but it doesn't seem like Waddle will miss suitors.Miami is anything but eliminated from playoff contention, and it looks like they won't give up until the wheels fall off. The 2025 trade deadline is set for Nov. 4.

How new Revenge feature works in Clash of Clans
Developer Supercell introduced tons of fresh content as well as tweaked some old features with the Clash of Clans October update. One of the major highlights of this patch was changes to multiplayer attacks and revenge features. So bid adieu to old ways, and learn about the fresh revenge feature in Clash of Clans with this guide.Everything you need to know about the Revenge feature in Clash of ClansWhile some changes that Supercell made with the October update, such as the splitting of multiplayer attacks into two modes, have caused a massive backlash, the new Revenge system has received a decent reception from COC enthusiasts.This is seemingly because the old revenge system existed without serving any real purpose. Players would often use it only to determine that they can exact revenge because the opponent is online or has an active shield or guard in their village.Thanks to the fresh Revenge system, if the enemy destroys at least 30% of your base, you can have your revenge without any hindrance. The only condition is that you must raid within 12 hours of their attack. Note that this new feature is not available in the Ranked mode.Also read - COC promotes Pokemon Legends Z-A on X, but fans express anger over latest updateAnother specialty of the new Revenge system is that you can attack the opponent's base even if they have an active shield in their base. Although exacting revenge won't get you any Trophies, as was previously the case, you can now easily retrieve your stolen loot. It allows you to steal exactly the amount of resources that have been robbed from you, even if the attacker doesn't have adequate loot left in their storage.For instance, say an enemy looted one million Gold and Elixir from your base and exhausted their storage before you exact your revenge. You can still retrieve the stolen amount, as the mechanic will replenish their storage for the time being. Also, if the enemy has more loot than they stole, you can then plunder all their resources.Last but not least, exacting revenge now also contributes to your star bonus track, making for another reason to wreak havoc in the villages of those who raid your base in Clash of Clans.Also read - COC Festival Lantern decoration: Design and cost exploredMore articles related to Clash of Clans by Sportskeeda:Revive Spell: Specialities and best ways to useHow to get Pirate Scenery for free4 best heroes ranked after TH17 updateHero Hall in COC: Everything you need to know

Dylan Stewart injury update: Latest on South Carolina QB after limping off the field in starting drive vs Oklahoma
South Carolina pass rusher Dylan Stewart was injured in the Gamecocks' first drive of their game against the Oklahoma Sooners in Week 8 action. Stewart was taken to the medical tent by South Carolina's medical personnel before being escorted to the locker room while limping. SEC Network sideline reporter Alyssa Lang identified Stewart's injury as a hip flexor problem. Stewart returned from the locker room and spent time on the stationary bike, after which he warmed up on the sideline and re-entered the game at the end of the second quarter, before getting injured again and leaving the field. “He looks frustrated,” Alyssa Lang said. “He’s been motioning toward that right hip, trying to sort of work that out. He actually has his hand on it right now as he’s walking down the sidelines with the trainer. Still looks a little uncomfortable. But I’m told he’s trying to come back in.”Dylan Stewart has tallied 3.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and 13 solo tackles for the Gamecocks this season. After his injury, he was replaced by Desmond Umeozulu. When analyst termed Dylan Stewart as best returning playerDylan Stewart played for Friendship Collegiate Academy in Washington and was a five-star prospect and the nation's leading EDGE talent in the class of 2024, according to 247Sports. He turned down offers from elite programs like the Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators, but ultimately committed to South Carolina. After a stellar freshman season where he tallied 6.5 sacks and three forced fumbles, he earned Southeastern Conference first-team honors. During an April segment of "The Cube" show, ESPN analyst Cole Cubelic listed Stewart as one of the best returning players in college football (14:00). "He is just overly dynamic at a position that, as we know, we've seen over time, that can go take over a game and ruin your game plan," Cubelic said. "He's going to force blockers... Your quarterback's going to have to be aware of him. "Your offensive line's going to have to be aware of where he's lined up. He changes everything. He changes your protection plans. He changes the plays that you can run. He changes the amount of time you can spend in the pocket."After barely missing out on the college football playoffs last season, the South Carolina Gamecocks have had an inconsistent season so far, with a 3-3 record, but Dylan Stewart has been one of the only bright spots for coach Shane Beamer's team.

LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier's sister Ashlynn flexes her stylish gameday outfit with Ella Springfield in latest IG post
Garrett Nussmeier is set to lead No.17 LSU (5-1, 2-1 SEC) in the Week 8 game against Vanderbilt (5-1, 1-1 SEC) on Saturday, and the quarterback will be having a number of relatives cheering him at FirstBank Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.Ahead of the game, the signal-caller's sister, Ashlynn Nussmeier, showcased her pregame outfit in a photo posted on her Instagram story.

Nussmeier stood beside her, donning a short gown and a sleeveless denim top. The other lady wore a brown top and a multi-color striped skirt.Ashlynn Nussmeier and Ella Springfield (Source: Instagram)They will all be elated to see Garrett Nussmeier, who has reportedly been dealing with a nagging injury through the first half of the season, in action. The quarterback offered his feelings on his health status in his press conference on Tuesday.“At the end of the day, football is a game where you’re never really fully healthy,” Nussmeier said. “So, it’s not necessarily about that for me.""It’s just trying to get the pieces going, trying to get us on the right track on offense. So, definitely there’s a little bit of a confidence booster there when I’m starting to feel better. I’d be lying if I said differently. But, still just focused on the offense."Brian Kelly expressed confidence in Garrett Nussmeier’s recoveryBrian Kelly is positive about Garrett Nussmeier’s fitness moving forward through the season. In his press conference on Tuesday, the LSU coach was confident about his fitness despite his concerns, citing the noteworthy improvements that have been made over the weeks.“All of those things are part of it, but the bottom line is he was healthy. On Thursday, I mentioned to you that we have the ball that has the GPS in it,” Kelly said.“And his numbers were up from any other time during the week. His ab injury is on the right side of it where he feels good, and he didn’t feel any pain on Sunday coming in. So, that’s a really, really good sign for us moving forward.”In his first six games of the season, Garrett Nussmeier threw for 1,413 yards and nine touchdowns with five interceptions, boosting a 66.2% completion rate. His aim remains to lead the Tigers to securing a spot in the playoffs.

“This clown gets worse by the day”: NFL fans rip Aaron Glenn as Jets HC compares Justin Fields to Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson
Jets coach Aaron Glenn stirred up fan reactions on Friday after drawing parallels between Justin Fields and MVP quarterbacks Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson. Glenn made the comparison while defending Fields’ prolonged time in the pocket. This led to nine sacks in last week’s 13-11 loss to Denver.Jets Videos shared the clip of Glenn’s press conference on X on Saturday."This clown gets worse by the day, comparing Fields to Allen and Jackson," one fan said.Unbiased Mets Fan @TheMetsXLINK@snyjets This clown gets worse by the day, comparing Fields to Allen and Jackson 😂😂😂"This is the ship he wants to sink on, huh? Wow," another fan said."Dudes mental clock is a broken sun dial," a fan said.More reactions came in."I'm getting sick of Glenn not going to lie," one fan said."Man I thought Aaron Glenn was going to be a great coach. He seems absolutely lost. Should've know when he pushed Rodgers out," another fan said."Those guys are MVPs and Fields is 0-6. Just a thought," a fan said.During his media availability, Glenn responded to criticism over Justin Fields’ release time. He pointed out that Allen and Jackson also tend to extend plays but don’t face the same level of scrutiny. Per ESPN, Fields’ average time to throw is 3.01 seconds compared to Allen’s 2.91 and Jackson’s 2.87.Glenn said that people give Allen and Jackson more leeway, while Fields is judged harshly for similar habits. He said that some of Fields’ best games have come when he’s held the ball around three seconds. Glenn said Fields must speed things up on quick-developing plays but emphasized that holding the ball is part of his quarterback’s style.Justin Fields vows to be more aggressive vs. CarolinaNFL: London Games-Denver Broncos at New York Jets - Source: ImagnJustin Fields said he’s played too cautiously this season. He hasn’t thrown an interception through six games. Fields said he will have a more aggressive approach moving forward."I've always just been big on ball security and not putting the ball in jeopardy, but it comes to a point where you just have to find that healthy balance between trying to maybe fit it in smaller windows and just letting it rip," Fields told reporters on Wednesday.The Jets will host Carolina on Sunday without star receiver Garrett Wilson, who is questionable with a knee injury after missing practice all week.Wilson has started 57 straight games, and rookie Arian Smith is expected to step in alongside Josh Reynolds if Wilson can’t go.

He adorned a white ruffle shirt and a navy blue velvet jacket with structured shoulders and golden embroidery. He paired the look with blue faded jeans and a black belt. BTS' V also attended the event with two other BTS members, RM and j-hope.While fans and netizens were thrilled about the BTS' members' attendance at the recent event, W Korea and the event soon garnered criticism for several incidents. From the pictures and videos that landed on the internet, netizens were disappointed to see that the event had little to no activities or speeches on the event's cause, breast cancer awareness.There were also no shades of pink spotted at the event, and since pink stands as the motif color for projects on breast cancer awareness, netizens speculated that the event was insincere about the purpose of the event. They also highlighted that over two decades, Love Your W 2025 has only raised around 1.1 billion KRW, which is considered a low amount for social cause donations.Therefore, people accused the event of allegedly turning into an elite social gathering with little room for spreading awareness and raising funds. On the other hand, Jay Park's performance of his viral track, MOMMAE, at the event's after-party also garnered criticism from netizens. This is because the song is known for its misogynistic lyrics that talk about female body parts.Jay Park has since apologized for offending any victims through his performance, and also justified his stance by expressing that he rolled out a free performance for W Korea despite his leg injury. Thereby, he requested people to refrain from misinterpreting his good intentions. Regardless, both W Korea and Jay Park are criticized for overlooking the song choice for the event.According to OSEN, W Korea refused to respond to the multiple controversies around its recent breast cancer awareness event, Love Your W.
