Roman Reigns, Sami Zayn, the Usos, and Solo Sikoa defeated Kevin Owens, Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Butch, and Ridge Holland in the WarGames main event of Survivor Series after Zayn took out Owens and gave the pinfall to Jey Uso.

Jey Uso and Butch kicked things off before Holland made his way to the ring. The Brawling Brutes took advantage of the 2-on-1 until the gate opened and Jimmy Uso tried to run to the cage. Instead, Reigns stopped Jimmy and directed Sami Zayn to make the save. Zayn and Jey Uso were able to set their differences aside and take the fight to the Brawling Brutes when the clock hit zero and Drew McIntyre yet again used a man advantage.

Jimmy Uso was next to hit the ring, bringing a few tables with him before Kevin Owens stepped into the cage with two chairs in hand. Owens slammed Jimmy Uso through a table before Solo Sikoa could settle the score. Sheamus, followed by Reigns made their way to the ring, with the two final competitors standing tall amongst the bodies.

Reigns and Sheamus were downed when Butch went to attack the champ. Zayn pulled him away when Jey Uso accidentally caught Zayn with a super kick. Jimmy and Jey took the fight to Butch, landing a 1-D off the top rope. They then stunned Holland with a super kick, leading to Reigns spearing him through a table.

In the other ring, Sikoa landed a Spinning Solo on McIntyre through the table, who was then stunned by Owens. Reigns and Owens went at it with Owens landing the popup powerbomb. Owens hit the stunner on Reigns, but Zayn stopped the ref from counting to three. Zayn low blowed Owens, then hit a Helluva Kick in the corner and set Owens up for a splash from Jey Uso for the pinfall and victory.

After the match, Zayn was embraced by both Usos as his team celebrated the win.

Austin Theory is once again United States champion, pinning Seth Rollins and defeating Lashley along the way to the win at WWE Survivor Series from Boston.

An underdog in his showdown with Lashley and Rollins, the latter of whom was the defending champion, Theory was looking to turn the tide after failing to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase for Rollins’ United States championship just a few weeks ago.

The match saw Theory, Lashley, and Rollins each control moments throughout, with Lashley trying time after time to lock in the Hurt Lock, but Theory and Rollins doing their best to escape. Lashley attempted to lock in the Hurt Lock, but Theory countered it into a pinfall and Rollins broke it up with a frog splash.

After attempting to lock Theory and Rollins into a Hurt Lock at the same time, they backed Lashley into the corner to break up the submission attempt. Lashley then tried to spear Theory, who missed and ran into the corner. Rollins laid out Theory, then used his back for a super stomp.

Neither could take advantage, and later Rollins would lift Theory into the falcon arrow, when Lashley landed the spear on Rollins. Theory would fall from the suplex position and roll over into the pin for the victory.

For the second game in a row and the third time in four contests, the Los Angeles Lakers are playing the San Antonio Spurs. The two teams that reside towards the bottom of the Western Conference standings took the floor in San Antonio on Saturday night, with the Lakers looking to pick up their third win over the Spurs at this early point in the season.

While L.A. entered the night without the services of Anthony Davis, who missed the game due to a calf injury, the team did roll in with LeBron James and Russell Westbrook in the lineup. During the third quarter, Westbrook found himself bleeding due to a hard foul by San Antonio big man Zach Collins. Westbrook tried to go up strong at the rim, where he was met by Collins and had his shot rejected.

The ball landed back in Westbrook’s hands, so he tried to go back up. Collins once again attempted to challenge him, but instead of getting the ball, he swiped across Westbrook’s face. While it did not seem to be on purpose, Westbrook got up, had to be held back by James as he tried to confront Collins, and started bleeding all over the place.

Collins was assessed a flagrant 2 foul and ejected from the game for this incident, and while he left for a bit, Westbrook was able to return to the game.

Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Mia Yim, Bianca Belair, and Becky Lynch earned the win over Bayley, Nikki Cross, Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, and Dakota Kai after Lynch put SKY and Kai through a table in the opening match at Survivor Series.

Bianca Belair opened the match against Dakota Kai, but was quickly overwhelmed when IYO SKY made it a 2-on-1 advantage.

After Asuka made her way to the ring, Nikki Cross introduced the first weapons to the match. Alexa Bliss followed before Bayley made her way to the ring and tossed in a handful of ladders and a table.

Yim and Ripley made their way to the cage before Lynch made her grand return as the last member of Belair’s squad, joining the team four months after being beaten down following her SummerSlam loss by Damage CTRL.

SKY took out Yim and Belair with a moonsault from the top of the War Games cage, leading to every competitor being laid out in the ring. With everyone back on their feet, Ripley broke a ladder by driving Yim through one in the corner. Belair and Lynch then stood toe-to-toe with Damage CTRL, where Belair and Lynch traded KOD’s and Manhandle slams to Kai and Sky.

Belair put Sky and Kai on a table in the corner when Bayley tried to scale the cage, but Belair put KOD’d her into the cage. Lynch then dropped a leg drop from the top of the cage through the table for the pinball.

The first year and change of Joe Biden’s presidency were a bit rocky, but over the summer a switch seemed to flip. He and his administration started getting some big stuff done. He started oozing confidence and cool. “Dark Brandon,” a twist on a rightwing Biden insult, was born. That version of the sitting president was on full display on Saturday, especially when he was asked to remark on some very grim news about his flailing predecessor.

Donald Trump is currently under fire for having Thanksgiving dinner not only with Kanye West — who recently torched his career by pivoting into anti-Semitism — but also Nick Fuentes. Who is Nick Fuentes? He’s a 24-year-old MAGA twerp who’s also a Holocaust denier, a white supremacist, a sexist pig, and a self-proclaimed incel who once declared that “dating women is gay.” Trump has claimed he had no idea who he was. Few bought that one.

But what did his successor think? Well, let him speak for himself.

Biden was hounded by reporters on Saturday while he, Dr. FLOTUS, and his son Hunter were shopping in Nantucket. He did his best to blow them off, but when asked what he thought about Trump breaking bread with a noted bigot, he only needed one line: “You don’t want to know what I think.”

Even a certain far right hellsite was furious with Trump’s choice of dinner guests, and not just Fuentes. As caught by The Daily Beast, David M. Friedman, his former ambassador to Israel, tweeted at him on Friday, calling him out for hanging with “an antisemite like Kanye West and human scum like Nick Fuentes,” adding, “you are better than this.” But what if he’s not?

After a memorable 2021 victory that snapped a lengthy losing streak in the historic rivalry, the Michigan Wolverines entered Saturday’s matchup with the Ohio State Buckeyes as underdogs once again. This time, Michigan attempted to stop another losing skid, with the Wolverines last winning in Columbus in 2000. Jim Harbaugh’s team turned on the jets in the second half and the end result was a stunning 45-23 victory that clinched a Big Ten East title for Michigan and caused a stir for Ohio State.

Former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer was on campus as part of the FOX’s pregame and postgame show. After the lopsided defeat, a group of Buckeyes fans began to make clear that they want him back in Columbus as head coach Ryan Day’s replacement.

Meyer was a disaster during his time in the NFL at the helm of the Jacksonville Jaguars, failing to make it through even one season in the league. However, he is one of the greatest college football coaches to ever live and posted an 83-9 record at Ohio State before stepping away at the end of the 2018 season. Meyer brought a national title to Columbus in 2014.

Day, the Buckeyes’ current coach, is not exactly popular at this very moment, which is what happens after back-to-back losses to Michigan where the team gets manhandled. Meyer never lost to Michigan, and Day was oddly conservative in Saturday’s game, punting in questionable spots and failing to exploit what was a clear talent advantage for the second straight year. It has to be noted that Day entered the day with a 45-4 record as the head coach, so while any criticism seem odd, fans on both sides of this rivalry do not take losses well.

It isn’t exactly likely that Meyer would ride in on a white horse to take over at Ohio State, but the fact that at least some Buckeyes fans want this is quite the change in tenor. Meanwhile, Jim Harbaugh is riding high, and the balance of power in the Big Ten has seemingly swung toward Ann Arbor in the last 12 months.

This past week, Bob Dylan and publishing company Simon & Schuester came under fire after it was discovered that several copies of Bob Dylan’s book The Philosophy Of Modern Song were autographed using a machine to create replicas of his signature.

The book contains Dylan’s commentary on 66 different songs by artists like Nina Simone, Elvis Presley, Hank Williams and more. Copies with Dylan’s supposed signature were going for as much as $599.

Today (November 26), Dylan has taken to Facebook to address the controversy.

To my fans and followers,

I’ve been made aware that there’s some controversy about signatures on some of my recent artwork prints and on a limited-edition of Philosophy Of Modern Song. I’ve hand-signed each and every art print over the years, and there’s never been a problem.

However, in 2019 I had a bad case of vertigo and it continued into the pandemic years. It takes a crew of five working in close quarters with me to help enable these signing sessions, and we could not find a safe and workable way to complete what I needed to do while the virus was raging. So, during the pandemic, it was impossible to sign anything and the vertigo didn’t help. With contractual deadlines looming, the idea of using an auto-pen was suggested to me, along with the assurance that this kind of thing is done ‘all the time’ in the art and literary worlds.

Using a machine was an error in judgment and I want to rectify it immediately. I’m working with Simon & Schuster and my gallery partners to do just that.

With my deepest regrets,
Bob Dylan

Simon & Schuester also addressed the controversy earlier this week, saying, “To those who purchased the Philosophy of Modern Song limited edition, we want to apologize. As it turns out, the limited edition books do contain Bob’s original signature, but in a penned replica form. We are addressing this information by providing each purchaser with an immediate refund.”

For the first time since 2000, the Michigan Wolverines won a football game in Columbus. Jim Harbaugh’s third-ranked squad walked into Ohio Stadium on Saturday afternoon for a highly-anticipated showdown with the No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes, and despite things being close and tense for the first half, the Wolverines ground the Buckeyes into dust during the game’s final two quarters en route to a 45-23 victory.

The win means the Wolverines are headed to Indianapolis for the second year in a row to compete for a Big Ten championship. But for these two teams, the rivalry is about more than getting to compete for titles, as there is a remarkable amount of pride on the line. And while the Buckeyes have owned this series over the last two decades, the Wolverines now have a winning streak for the first time since 1999 and 2000.

Michigan players were, unsurprisingly, fired up after the win, especially the manner in which they won, as the team outscored the Buckeyes in the second half, 28-3. To celebrate, someone on the team grabbed a flag with the iconic michigan Block M on it, went to midfield, and planted it right in the center of the O at midfield in Ohio Stadium.

Another angle shows that the player who grabbed the flag and ran to midfield was defensive back Mike Sainristil.

Baker Mayfield famously did this in 2017 after the Oklahoma Sooner walked into Columbus and beat the Buckeyes.

If you felt the forthcoming R-rated horror film Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Money ruined your Disney-bred childhood, then brace yourself for more. As per Dread Central (as caught by Entertainment Weekly), the same producer has another House of Mouse classic character on the chopping block: Bambi, the nice deer who’s simply trying to get over the murder of his poor mother by heartless human hunters.

The film, which begins production in January, is called Bambi: The Reckoning, and it takes a macabre twist on both the 1942 Disney classic as well as Bambi, a Life in the Woods, the Felix Salten book that started it all. As the title suggests, the plot finds an adult Bambi out for revenge upon the hunters who offed his mom (and subsequently traumatized every generation that’s watched it as children).

How far will this new version go in destroying an iconic fictitious woodland critter? Director Scott Jeffrey promises an “incredibly dark retelling” of the classic story, describing their take on Bambi as a “vicious killing machine” and warning people, “Prepare for Bambi on rabies!”

Winnie the Pooh and Bambi aren’t the only classic children’s characters getting bloody new twists. This holiday seasons, the Grinch is also getting The Mean One, a horror parody courtesy starring David Howard Thornton, star of the freak sleeper hit Terrifier 2. RIP you childhood.

In 2019, rapper EST Gee was shot in the eye after filming a video with Sada Baby. He took a bullet in his left eye and was shot in the stomach four times. Since then, he has signed to Yo Gotti’s Collective Music Group and released his debut album, I Never Felt Nun. Though, he seems to have been dealing with the aftermath of the shooting for years.

EST Gee took to his Instagram story yesterday (November 25) to share an update with fans. He revealed that he is losing vision in one of his eyes.

In a video, he showed his eye, which appeared to have a cataract, to the camera.

“See that cataract growing over my eye,” he said, “sh*t getting worse. It’s harder to see. It’s getting bigger.” He shared that he had planned to get surgery on his eyes a few years ago, but wasn’t able to due to the pandemic.

The video was captioned with text reading, “How can I stop this grey part from spreading I use to could see a lil bit but its getting worse I’m starting to see less.”

It is unclear whether EST Gee’s vision loss is directly related to the 2019 shooting.
