Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes vs. Solo Sikoa in a Bloodline Rules Match took place at the WWE Summer Slam Premium Live Event from Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, OH on Saturday night.

After a back and forth start, Cody caught him with a spring board drop kick followed by an outside dive. Back in the ring, Solo took over and the beat down began. Cody caught him with a Cody cutter and then tossed him to the floor. 

Back in the ring, Cody connected with a flurry of right hands. Cody hit Solo with the steel steps a few times. Jacob Fatu ran out and attacked Cody. Roman Reigns made his return and hit the superman punch to Solo then the spear before leaving the ring. Cody then made the pin.

Aaron Judge’s  two-run home run in the first inning of the Yankees’ 8-3 win over the Blue Jays in the Bronx tied him with the Bambino for a nearly century-old franchise record.

Judge now boasts 16 first-inning home runs this season, matching the number Ruth hit in the opening frame of his famous 60-homer campaign in 1927.

Only Alex Rodriguez, who hit 18 first-inning home runs with Texas in 2001, and Mark McGwire, who hit 17 with St. Louis two years earlier, struck more in a single season in MLB history.

Judge’s 426-foot blast against Toronto’s José Berríos gave the Yankees (66-46) an early 2-1 advantage Saturday, and they led the rest of the way.

It was Judge’s MLB-leading 41st home run of the season, putting him on pace for 59. Judge had 45 home runs through the Yankees’ 112th game of 2022, when he set an American League single-season record with 62.

Canelo Alvarez officially announced his next fight. Alvarez will defend his WBA, WBC and WBO super middleweight titles versus Edgar Berlanga on Sept. 14 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Alvarez (61–2–2, 39 KOs) choosing Berlanga as his opponent comes with some controversy. The Mexican superstar will reportedly be stripped of his IBF title for not facing mandatory challenger William Scull, which mean he will no longer be the undisputed champion at 168 pounds.

He will, however, be defending his WBC belt despite David Benavidez being the WBC’s mandatory challenger and pursuing a shot at Alvarez since 2022.

However, Alvarez bypassed Benavidez and WBA mandatory challenger David Morrell in favor of Jaime Munguia earlier this year and now Berlanga (22–0, 17 KOs).

Alvarez, 34, defeated Munguia by unanimous decision after knocking him down in the fourth round on May 4. He has 39 knockouts in his career, but hasn’t won via knockout since 2021.

Applebee’s announced the launch of new Mezcal cocktails featuring Dos Hombres, created by Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Teremana Tequila.

Priced at $9 each, here’s a closer look at the new cocktails:

• New Breaking Rock Rita: Paying homage to one of television’s greatest duos, Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston’s Dos Hombres Mezcal is shaken up with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s ultra-premium Teremana Blanco Tequila, blue curacao, lime, and a sky-blue sugar rim.
• New Passion Fruit Mezcal Rita: Sweet with a kiss of smoke, the Passion Fruit Mezcal Rita features passion fruit, Dos Hombres Mezcal, Teremana Blanco Tequila, triple sec, lime, and a gummi lip garnish.
• New Classic Mezcal Rita: Made for the traditional margarita drinker looking to kick things up a notch, the Classic Mezcal Rita features Applebee’s signature margarita mix with a hint of smooth smoke from Dos Hombres Mezcal, Teremana Blanco Tequila, triple sec, and lime.

Taco Bell revealed its latest drive-thru concept, which features an elevated kitchen and “gravity-defying” food delivery system.

The high-tech takeout spots will use a “proprietary lift system” to pass food from the 3,000 square-foot kitchen to the four drive-thru lanes sitting below, the California-based chain said in a news release.

The fast-food joint will break ground on the first of the new restaurants in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota and will open to the public by next summer.

Three of the lanes will be dedicated to those who order ahead on a mobile app, which the company said will enable customers to start binging on bean burritos faster.

Customers will scan digital screens with a QR code on their phone before pulling up to grab their orders in the sleek sci-fi setting.

The goal of the new Taco Bell Defy concept is to get diners-on-the-go back on the road quickly — and without any interpersonal interaction.

The A’s are leaving Oakland. And the move is happening faster than many thought it might.

The franchise is temporarily relocating to West Sacramento starting in the 2025 season as it prepares for its eventual permanent relocation to Las Vegas.

The Oakland Athletics announced their temporary move to Sutter Health Park in Sacramento for the 2025, 2026 and 2027 Major League Baseball seasons ahead of their official move to Las Vegas.

Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento will host the A’s for the 2025-27 seasons – ahead of the team’s move to Vegas in 2028.

Sutter Health Park has just over 10,000 seats and seating options to increase capacity to 14,000.

The option year for the A’s moving from Oakland to Sacramento gives the team flexibility if its stadium in Las Vegas is not complete. 

NEW YORK — Hoops Cabaret in New York City (48 West 33rd Street), featuring dozens of sexy Hoops exotic dancers, and hailed as “the  sexiest sports bar,” will show the highly-anticipated boxing matchup of Terence Crawford against Israil Madrimov on Saturday, August 3. 

Terence Crawford moves up to junior middleweight to challenge WBA champion Israil Madrimov. The WBO interim title will also be on the line.

Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs), of Omaha, Nebraska, is a two-division undisputed champion, a feat accomplished by only two other men boxers (Naoya Inoue and Oleksandr Usyk). Crawford is coming off an impressive performance against Errol Spence Jr. in July 2023. In that fight, Crawford dropped Spence three times to eventually score a ninth-round TKO win at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to unify all four major welterweight world titles.

Crawford, 36, is ESPN’s No. 2 ranked pound-for-pound fighter and the top welterweight fighter.

Madrimov (10-0-1, 7 KOs), of Khiva, Uzbekistan, won the title by defeating Magomed Kurbanov by fifth-round TKO back in March, on the Anthony Joshua-Francis Ngannou undercard in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Madrimov, 29, is a decorated amateur fighter with almost 100 fights. He turned pro in 2018 and has notable victories over Raphael Igbokwe and Michel Soro.

At Hoops Cabaret, fans can view the exciting bout on the club’s giant Mega-Tron Video Wall and numerous HD TVs and flat screens, giving every seat a clear view of all the action.

Hoops girl Selena said, “It’s going to be a great card of boxing, and the after-party here with so many sexy dancers is going to be off the chain. Come make it rain. Don’t miss it!” 

Hoops Cabaret combines the  fun of a sports bar with the excitement of a gentlemen’s club. Sports and beautiful girls, it’s a win, win. And be sure to check out the club’s unique VIP Man Cave.

Steve Austin has given high praise to Pat McAfee, who has wrestled a few matches in WWE in addition to serving as a color commentator. 

After working a few matches in NXT, McAfee beat Austin Theory at WrestleMania 38 last year before he lost to Vince McMahon right after it. Austin would come out to make the save where he hit a Stunner to all three stars. McAfee made a surprise appearance at WrestleMania 39 for a short match with The Miz.

McAfee is currently away from WWE as Wade Barrett started to fill in for McAfee as a color commentator on WWE SmackDown when the former NFL punter joined College Gameday last year. He recently signed a big money deal with ESPN. 

NEW YORK — The ultimate fate of the 2024 Mets isn’t yet clear and won’t be for months. But one thing about their season is definitively settled: The Mets are the reigning kings of New York.

Their 12-3 blowout win Wednesday night capped a Subway Series sweep of the Yankees, adding two victories at Yankee Stadium to the two they scored at Citi Field last month. They still might not be on the same level as their interborough rivals in the standings, but the Mets nonetheless proved this week that their current trajectory is the more promising one.

Francisco Lindor homered twice, Tyrone Taylor went deep, collected three hits and made a sterling play on defense, and the Mets never had to sweat much in closing out their first Subway Series sweep in more than a decade. The club also moved five games above .500 for the first time in 15 months.

The final victory was a complete team effort, including homers from Lindor (twice), Taylor, Pete Alonso and Mark Vientos. The Mets plated a six-pack of runs off reigning AL Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole for the second time this season, then batted around in the eighth inning to put the game well out of reach.
