Kevin Owens became the second-ever  WWE  Universal Champion on tonight's RAW from Houston.   He defeated Roman Reigns,  Seth Rollins  and  Big Cass  in a Fatal 4 Way Elimination Match to win the vacant title, which was relinquished by  Finn Balor  after suffering an injury at the hands of Rollins at SummerSlam. The match saw Cass get eliminated first, by Owens. Reigns was eliminated next, by Rollins after  Triple H  made a surprise return and attacked Reigns outside of the ring. This led to Triple H turning on Rollins, hitting him with a Pedigree and allowing Owens to get the title. Triple H then celebrated with Owens before stopping at ringside to stare at  Mick Foley  and Stephanie McMahon. He then walked off as Owens was left to celebrate in the ring.  

TMZ Sports is reporting that Bill Goldberg is in talks with WWE about a possible return to the company.   Rumors we running rampant ever since it was announced Goldberg was a playable character in WWE 2k17. It is thought Goldberg is Shane McMahon's answer for Brock Lesnar's attack on him at Summer Slam.

If there’s one thing more terrifying than a machete-wielding supernatural killer, its the prospect of a tedious and protracted copyright lawsuit. Unfortunately, it looks like the “Friday the 13th” franchise may be heading in the latter direction, according to a recent report by  THR . Horror, Inc. and Manny Company, the current owners of the lucrative slasher series, recently filed a lawsuit in Connecticut against the original 1980 film’s screenwriter, Victor Miller, hoping to halt the claiming of a copyright provision allowing authors to cancel grants of rights in order to retake ownership. Notices for copyright termination were sent this past June, aiming to return the rights to Miller in July 2018. Mr. Miller, the plaintiffs argue, was simply brought on as a writer-for-hire for the company producing the film at the time, and therefore has no legal claim to the source material. The complaint argues that, “Miller had never...

By Anthony Couto    “The Spectacular Now” writers Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber have reportedly been hired to write the upcoming X-Men spinoff movie, “New Mutants,” for their “Fault in the Stars” collaborator, and the film’s director, Josh Boone. According to  The Hollywood Reporter , the team in the film, based on the early ’80s comic of the same name by Chris Claremont and Bob McLeod, will include: “Native American Danielle Moonstar, Scots girl Wolfsbane, Brazilian ladies man Sunspot, a Kentuckian code-named Cannonball, and Russian teen Magik. Also in the mix will be an alien named Warlock.” Prior to the hiring of Neustadter and Weber, Boone and scribe Knate Lee had co-written two drafts of the film —  for which they credited Claremont and McLeod on the first page . Produced by Simon Kinberg (“X-Men: Apocalypse”), “New Mutants” hasn’t been given a release date.

It’s been nearly fourteen years since Gore Verbinski’s (“Pirates of the Caribbean”) remake of “The Ring” terrified audiences stateside — eleven since its sequel bored most of them — and now, a trailer for the third in the series has hit the Internet. Simply titled “Rings,” the first preview seems to include all the attributes a Ring film requires: creepy amateur VHS footage, leaky walls, desperate characters in a race against time to stop a deadly curse, that wrinkly ghost girl, etc. Check out the trailer along with an official synopsis below: “A new chapter in the beloved RING horror franchise. A young woman becomes worried about her boyfriend when he explores a dark subculture surrounding a mysterious videotape said to kill the watcher seven days after he has viewed it. She sacrifices herself to save her boyfriend and in doing so makes a horrifying discovery: there is a ‘movie...

Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande will reunite to perform at the latest MTV Video Music Awards, the network announced on Wednesday. Minaj, one of the most successful female rappers, will join Grande in the pop star’s single  Side to Side  at the gala on Sunday night at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The pair, along with English singer Jessie J, collaborated together at the 2014 VMAs in one of the night’s first and best-received performances. Minaj again kicked off the awards in 2015 in a performance with pop superstar Taylor Swift — despite Minaj’s criticism of MTV that year for passing over her  Anaconda  in nominations for Video of the Year. Previously announced performers for Sunday’s awards include Rihanna, who will be presented with a career Video Vanguard Award, as well as the rapper Future and Britney Spears, who is releasing a new album. MTV on Wednesday announced that award...

  Leslie Jones has had her personal website hacked to reveal naked images of her. According to gossip website TMZ, someone got into her webpage on Wednesday (24.08.16) and posted nude pictures of the 'Ghostbusters' actress as well as details from her driver's licence and passport. The hacker also uploaded a video in tribute to gorilla Harambe and positioned it at the top of the site. It is thought pictures of the 48-year-old star were obtained via her phone or iCloud. Her website, JustLeslie.com, was taken down after the attack and is yet to reappear at the time of writing. Several selfies of the star alongside celebrities including Rihanna, Kim Kardashian West, Kanye West and 50 Cent were also posted. This comes after Leslie was racially abused by vile trolls earlier this summer, leading to her quitting Twitter. While she has since returned to the social media site, she recently...

By Tommy Rowan     Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas will help pick the 2017 Miss America, pageant planners announced Monday.   Douglas, fresh off a gold-medal win in Rio, will join Shark Tank's Mark Cuban and Disney Channel's Laura Marano to help judge the annual Atlantic City pageant, according to the Miss America Organization. The 20-year-old's experiences, both positive and negative , make her a natural fit for the role. At the 2012 London games, Douglas won gold in both team and individual all-around competitions. And with her individual victory, she made Olympic history: Douglas became the first woman of color (of any nationality), as well as the first African American gymnast, to win gold in the event. And in Rio, she made more history: Douglas, along with Aly Raisman, became the first American gymnasts to be members of two gold-medal winning teams.  Aside from Cuban and Marano, the Miss...
