Major spoilers from the first AXS TV Impact Wrestling tapings

Impact Wrestling held its first AXS TV tapings yesterday in Windsor, Ontario, Canada and started off with a huge title change in a match that will headline next Tuesday’s Impact Wrestling.

Impact champion Brian Cage faced Sami Callihan in a steel cage match in a rematch from their Bound For Glory pay-per-view match but this time around, the outcome was different as Callihan managed to pin Cage and win his first major singles title.

Brian Cage’s Impact title reign was marred with an injury that kept him on the sidelines for a while after he won the title from Jonny Impact at the Rebellion pay-per-view in April. He held the title for six months.

Following the match, Tessa Blanchard made her presence felt and came out for a stare-down with the new champion. Blanchard and Callihan have a long history together in Impact Wrestling, having an intergender match at Slammiversary a couple of months ago.

Impact moves to AXS TV this coming Tuesday at 8PM ET.

Jake Hager’s MMA fight ends in a no contest after illegal low blows

Jake Hager’s fight against Anthony Garrett last night at Bellator 231 ended in a no contest due to illegal low blows from Hager.

The referee ruled that both strikes were unintentional and therefore went to no contest rather then disqualifying Hager and awarding the fight to his opponent. The fight did not last long and referee Dan Miragliotta waved it off after less than two minutes on the clock.

This was Hager’s third MMA fight for Bellator and remains undefeated even though there’s a small blemish on the record now. The fight opened the main card on Paramount.

Santana, Ortiz, and Sammy Guevara from his Inner Circle faction were also at the show and the AEW logo was displayed on the banner. Former WWE World champion Batista was also in attendance and took a photo with all members of the faction.

During the post-show press conference, Hager denied illegally hitting the low blow and thought his opponent wanted an excuse to leave the cage. “I’m obviously disappointed with the finish tonight,” Hager said. “I didn’t think I hit him at all. Is it something I’d be interested in running back? I don’t know. It didn’t seem like he wanted to fight tonight, so what’s going change the next time? Is he really going to want to fight next time? I’m a competitor. I’m a fighter. I’m doing so much right now trying to get myself better. For him to do something like that? Whatever.”

2K issues statement promising fixes for buggy WWE 2K20 video game

It’s safe to say that WWE 2K20 has not been a big hit with gamers as the newly-released game is getting universally panned from fans and critics for the hundreds of bugs the game was shipped with.

Released just this week, gamers have taken to social media to upload still photos and videos of many, many bugs that are hindering their gaming experience.

What is different this year is that one half of the development team of the game, Yuke’s, were not on board for WWE 2K20, leaving all the development in the hands of Visual Concepts. Besides the several bugs, the graphics seem to have gone backwards rather than forward and WWE Superstars in the game don’t really look as authentic as previous editions.

Now, the publishers of the game, 2K, have responded to the criticism with a message on social media, promising a few patches that will hopefully make gameplay better. “We are listening closely to the feedback that’s been shared regarding WWE 2K20 and are aware of the concerns some players are reporting. We’re working hard to investigate these concerns and address them as necessary. We expect to have an initial patch ready in the next two weeks, with others to follow. Stay tuned to WWEGames social media channels for more information,” the statement read.

The game was given an awful 4.3 out of 10 rating by IGN and labeled as a “mess.”

SPONSORED: Skills you need to develop while playing slots

Even though online slot developers are beginning to introduce skill elements into slots, the vast majority of slot games at Slots Mummy are all about luck. Still, there are many skills you need to develop while playing slots. So let’s look at four of the most important ones now.

Become an Expert on RTPs

Did you know that all licensed slots (and you should only play these) in the UK must display their return to player percentage (RTP)? I know what you’re thinking: What is an RTP? An RTP is basically the percentage of your betting paid back to you on average. Plus, the higher the RTP, the lower the house edge (the slot’s mathematical advantage over you), and the better your chance of success. And while the RTP in some land-based slots is as low as 75%, most online slots boast an RTP of 95% or higher. Thus, be on the lookout for RTPs from now on – and only play games with RTPs of 95% plus.

Get to Know All Your Betting Options

Although our second tip isn’t exactly rocket science, you’d be surprised at the amount of people that seem to ignore it. Don’t fall into the same trap. Every time you sit down to play a slot, you should be aware of all the betting options on the table. But how can you do this? It’s easy, really: simply study the slot’s pay tables. Then, you won’t throw any of your hard-earned cash away.

Become an Expert on Your Slot Game

Our third tip could become an expensive one, if not handled correctly, so please pay close attention. I mean, how can you become an expert on a slot without spending lots of time and money on it, right? Wrong! You see, these days any slot worth its salt offers you free games. Avail of these and get to know your slot inside out. And if you can’t find any free games or demo versions of a particular game at your online casino or the slot developer’s website, select another game.

Know when to Call it quits playing slots

Of course, even if you abide by the first three tips and are no stranger to slot wins, you could end up losing lots of cash unless you learn when to call it quits. So, before you start playing a slot, always set limits for both profits and losses. A good rule of thumb is to stop playing when you’ve doubled your budget. Let’s say, for example, you decide to spend £20 in a session, and end up winning £40, call it a day immediately. On the other hand, if you’re having a bad day, and the £20 dries up, log out of your mobile device instantly. Then, you’re always in control of the money you spend.

Final Thoughts on Slot Game Skills

Our four great tips will help you enjoy slots a lot more, so give them a go (your bank manager will approve)!

Punk said that he was already in Los Angeles when FOX called to go in for the audition and while the word going around was that Punk did really well, he’s still in the dark over the outcome.

“I haven’t heard a thing. I was told WWE wasn’t involved…but who knows? It could be why I haven’t heard anything yet,” Punk said.

Punk also said he would be open to the idea of doing something wrestling-related but he just hasn’t been approached properly about it. He joked that he’s not asking someone to come knocking on his door with a dozen of roses for a proposal and said that recently Master P reached out to talk to him over Instagram.
