Alexa Bliss announced in a post on her social media that she got engaged to her boyfriend Ryan Cabrera yesterday.
“One year ago we said hello, tonight I said YES,” she wrote in the post, accompanied by a photo of Cabrera proposing on his knee. “Tonight was the best night of my life!! And it’s just the beginning!!!”
Bliss, 29, was previously engaged to fellow WWE Superstar Murphy but they ended their relationship in 2018 even though they still remain friends to this day. Cabrera is a 32-year-old singer-songwriter and has appeared multiple times on Miz & Mrs as he’s good friends with The Miz.
The Impact+ event Turning Point, held at the Skyway Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, had two title changes last night.
Deonna Purrazzo, the former Impact Knockouts champion, got her rematch against Su Yung and successfully beat Yung to get her title back. Yung beat Purrazzo at Bound For Glory last month as a last minute replacement for Kylie Rae, who did not show up at the event, and later announced her retirement from wrestling due to several personal issues.
Also, Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows became the Impact Tag Team champions after they beat The North. Just like Su Yung, The North won their titles at Bound For Glory last month in a fatal four-way tag team match. The Good Brothers used the Magic Killer to get their first gold in Impact Wrestling.

Chelsea Green, who yesterday broke her wrist during her unfortunate Smackdown debut, underwent surgery today, just hours after the injury took place live on the show.
Green announced the surgery early in the morning in a post on social media, saying that while she’s beyond devastated for what happened, she’s also excited to be part of the Smackdown team when she comes back.
“Just like the rest of my career, I couldn’t have an easy debut! LOL, that just wouldn’t be fit for my wild journey,” Green wrote.
Typical recoveries for a broken wrist go from six weeks to up to four months, depending on how severe the break was.
Her boyfriend, the artist formerly known as Zack Ryder, uploaded a photo standing by her side at a medical facility. Green was still in her wrestling gear as she was getting her vitals checked. Ryder, who now goes by his real name of Matt Cardona, wrote that it was a bittersweet night as he’s seen Chelsea getting shot down multiple times by WWE throughout the years and now that she finally got her debut, she broke her wrist…again. Green also broke her wrist in her first televised NXT match in March 2019 and required surgery. She eventually returned three months later.
The season six premiere of Total Bellas, titled Bella Baby Bumps, did 416,000 viewers and 0.19 in the 18-49 demographic. It was #38 on the top 50 cable chart. That is down 149,000 viewers from the season five premiere. (Ratings credit: Showbuzzdaily.com)
SAG-AFTRA, a labor union representing over 160,000 performers, have tweeted their support to Zelina Vega after Vega got fired yesterday.
Vega, who knew she was about to be fired, upstaged WWE by tweeting “I support unionization” and 10 minutes later WWE tweeted about her release. Responding to Vega, the SAG-AFTRA account said, “So do we.”
SAG-AFTRA President, Gabrielle Carteris, also reached out to Vega, thanking her for standing strong for labor solidarity and told her that she supports her, even giving her e-mail address to reach out.
SAG-AFTRA, which represents the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, is a union for announcers, broadcast journalists, dancers, DJs, news writers, news editors, program hosts, puppeteers, recording artists, singers, stunt performers, voiceover artists and other media professionals.
Vega was not fired for the tweet, but rather because she did not want to stop her Twitch, OnlyFans, and other third-party accounts which Vince McMahon mentioned in an e-mail last month.
“I want to say thank you all very much for the last 3-4 years @WWEUniverse, it was incredible,” Vega wrote in a tweet after getting the pink slip. “I would have never have been able to say ‘this is for you dad’ if certain people did not believe in me. I love you all and I couldn’t have done it without your support.”
Following an absence of six months from the ring due to creative reasons, Chelsea Green made her Smackdown debut last night on Smackdown…but unfortunately for her, it was a debut to forget as Green broke her hand.
Green was part of a fatal four-way match featuring herself, Liv Morgan, Natalya, and Tamina where the winner advanced to the Smackdown women’s Survivor Series team. According to reports, Green was scheduled to win the match but after she was taken out early, plan B came into effect on the fly and Liv Morgan advanced instead. The injury happened within the first two minutes of the match when Green was dropped from the apron by Morgan, landing badly on her hand at ringside.
The referee was giving instructions to Morgan while she was in a rest hold by Natalya and was seen constantly talking to the back as a new finish was worked out. Tamina, who was off camera for most of the time, was involved in the finish.
“Just another twist in my @wwe story tonight,” Green wrote on social media. “If you wondered where I went after my entrance, here’s your answer… another broken arm. Nothing I haven’t dealt with before! I’ll be back before you know it!”
WWE.COM later confirmed the injury, saying that Green had a broken left wrist and was taken to a local medical facility for further evaluation.
Green was moved to the main roster from NXT in late May after she fired Robert Stone as her manager. Green had been posting on social media the last time she wrestled which was May 27.
In the modern age, sometimes human beings do underestimate how the internet has made things so convenient for everyone. From being able to order groceries or sending messages instantly from the comfort of your home to any part of the world, the internet has given us a lot to be thankful for. Another element that has grown in popularity in recent years are streaming services. Let’s take a closer look at the different types of streaming services and how classy beef, a group of video game streamers, rose to prominence on the streaming service known as twitch https://casinobrend.com/classybeef.
How streaming rose in popularity:
Streaming can be defined as the transmission of audio or video to a user located in any part of the world. The most commonly streamed forms of entertainment are video games, movies, television shows, and music. A stream usually requires a constant internet connection to run without interruptions. So it’s no secret that streaming services have grown in popularity as internet speeds have gotten much better over the past decade.
Audio streaming:
Audio streaming generally involves podcasts and music. Most music streaming services are available for free in most countries around the world. In such cases, users also have the option to opt for a premium subscription that offers no advertisements as well as offline music. Sometimes certain artists may not be available on one service which means that you’ll have to use the service they are available to enjoy their songs.
Streaming movies and TV shows:
When it comes to movies and TV shows, there are a plethora of applications available. They often require a subscription to watch. The user can opt to pay for a subscription either on a monthly or yearly basis. The growth of such streaming services has seen a noticeable decline in the number of people tuning into cable television.
Streaming for games:
Streaming for video games is something that has turned into a job for many people. The popular site twitch is the hub for video game streamers. Although YouTube also has introduced a live stream feature, more and more creators are switching to twitch as the consensus is that twitch rewards streamers more. In twitch, most of the screen is taken up by the video game the streamer is playing and a small box is dedicated to the displaying the streamers face via a web camera. Generally streams last around 1-2 hours. Users can leave comments on the stream to which the streamer may or may not respond. Users also have the option to donate to streamers if they enjoy the content they produce. These donations can range from being as small as 5 dollars to larger amounts. Additionally, streamers also have advertisements on their streams through which they also make money.
It’s by no means easy to become a video game streamer. First, you need a proper setup and equipment. Your computer should be more than capable of handling both playing games and streaming at the same time. This ensures a pleasant experience for both you and the viewer. You also need to have a super-fast internet connection to stream without any type of buffering. Lastly, you’ll also need a proper web camera and a microphone. Not having a proper microphone can result in bad communication and people losing interest in your streams.
Now, a look at classy beef:
Classy beef is a group of four streamers from Malta that stream online casino games on twitch. The statistics certainly tell an impressive story. Classy beef has around 90,000 followers on twitch and over 5.7 million views in total for all their streams. For their first stream, they had only 11 viewers but they recorded a peak of 38k viewers on August 31. Averaging thousands of viewers on a daily basis, they’ve established them as the stalwarts of the online casino streaming niche on twitch. Generally, the streamers from classy beef bet small amounts that any average person can bet. However, they have also gained a reputation of taking risks when necessary such as when a casino offers bonus prize money. Probably the most impressive thing about classy beef is the fact that they can land huge wins by betting minimal amounts. Classy beef does not disclose its earnings to the public or its viewers.
The four horsemen of classy beef are:
Espen
Joe
Marko
Nando
Espen and Joe are the founders of classy beef. The idea to launch a streaming channel dedicated to casino gambling was born when the two of them met at work. As the project gained success, they decided to hire new people. The newest member of classy beef is Nando who joined somewhere around February and March 2020. Classy beef also had another member called Kevin but he left the team some time ago.
Winnings of classy beef:
As mentioned earlier, classy beef has a reputation of winning big with even moderate stakes. Classy beef members are always on the hunt to try different slots and different online casinos to keep their viewers entertained. In addition, they also teach the mechanics of every slot machine they try to their viewers, thus keeping all of them well informed and encouraging them to try their hand at gambling as well.
Social networks:
In addition to twitch, classy beef is also highly active on other sites such as YouTube. There’s a YouTube channel called classy beef highlights with over 5k subscribers and over a million viewers. The channel is dedicated to posting the best clips from their streams and all the funny moments from their winnings. Classy beef is also highly active on Twitter and Instagram, where they keep their fans updated and constantly post information regarding their new games. They also have a Facebook group but that is said to be inactive at the moment.
At the end of the day, classy beef is a group of four people who love what they do. They provide great entertainment thanks to the amusing reactions they offer and are also very interactive with their fans. If you are looking to get into online slot machines, then watching classy beef will certainly help.
WWE announced today that Zelina Vega has been released from her contract, a surprise cut that has left many scratching their heads.
A statement on WWE.COM read, ”WWE has come to terms on the release of Zelina Vega. We wish her all the best in her future endeavors.”
Vega, real name Thea Trinidad, posted a tweet today saying that she supports unionization and mere minutes later, WWE announced her release. It is unclear what led to her firing but Vega was very active on her Twitch and vocal about WWE’s ban on third party services. WWE has threatened to terminate anyone who does not obey the new rules.
The 29-year-old has been working with WWE since 2017, starting in NXT and then eventually moving to the main roster. She is married to WWE Superstar Aleister Black.
Sasha Banks made her Mandarolian debut in the third episode of season two, which is titled The Heiress, and available to stream now on Disney+.
Banks, who announced her involvement in the show when the trailer of the popular series was published by Disney+, plays a character named Koska Reeves, a warrior working for Katee Sackhoff’s character Bo-Katan Kryze.
“Can’t stop screaming, crying and smiling #Thankful,” Banks wrote on social media, posting a photo in front of a TV where her credit is seen. In The Mandalorian, Banks is credited under her real name of Mercedes Varnado.
Speaking of Sasha Banks, her match on Smackdown against Bayley had a total of 2.5 million viewers, topping anything on any wrestling show since March.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer is reporting that the Tropicana Field in St Petersburg, Florida, is the front runner right now to be the next location of WWE’s ThunderDome.
The 30-year-old domed stadium is the home of the Tampa Bay Rays of the MLB and WWE could theoretically stay in the stadium until the new MLB season starts next year. The stadium sits just over 42,000 fans and would be an ideal location if the company starts allowing fans inside as they can seat everyone socially distanced due to the coronavirus. The state of Florida has given the green light for all stadiums to return to full capacity although that will likely not happen, not even for a WWE pay-per-view.
But an old stadium brings with it a lot of problems so while the company would be expanding as far the site goes, the infrastructure is far less than what they have right now at the Amway Center.
WWE has never run a show inside the Tropicana Field although the stadium hosted basketball, football, motorsports, and many concerts in the past.
The final match of the NXT UK Heritage Cup tournament was decided yesterday on the weekly NXT UK broadcast on the WWE Network with Trent Seven taking on A-Kid for the big one.
Announced prior to the relaunch of the NXT UK brand, the Heritage Cup is based on traditional British wrestling rules, with each match having six rounds of three minutes each and a 20-second break in between. All matches are two-out-of-three falls and a round ends via pinfall, submission, or count-out. Whoever gets to two falls first wins the match and a DQ or knockout will immediately ends the match.
To advance to the final match, Seven had to go through Kenny Williams and Dave Mastiff while A-Kid defeated Flash Morgan Webster and Noam Dar.
The finals of the NXT UK Heritage Cup tournament will take place two weeks from now on the November 26 episode of NXT UK.

One upcoming fight that punters may be betting on soon is Conor McGregor’s long awaited rematch against Dustin Poirier. Although the bout has not been 100% confirmed, Dana White has offered the pair the chance to main event UFC 257 on January 23. Even if this particular date is pushed back, it is an open secret that the bout will be happening at some point in the future.
Unsure which fighter you should be backing? You aren’t the only one. Hopefully, our quick guide to each competitor will give you some pointers.
Who is Conor McGregor?
Conor McGregor is one of the most infamous sports stars on the planet. For many years he was the face of the UFC, becoming equally well known for his explosive personality as he was for his performances in the ring.
Hailing from Dublin, Ireland he made his UFC debut all the way back in 2013, progressing up the card rapidly thereafter. He earned an UFC Featherweight Championship title shot against José Aldo in 2015, but following an injury to Aldó he defeated Chad Mendes for the Interim Featherweight Championship instead.
This first belt was followed by McGregor clinching the Featherweight Championship and then the Lightweight Championship, becoming the first UFC fighter to hold titles from different weight categories at the same time.
After this, his interest in MMA waned with the Irishman competing against Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match in 2017 before retiring from the company altogether in 2020. Now, he’s back in training and ready to better his current record of 22-4-0.
Who is Dustin Poirier?
Born in Lafayette, Louisiana in 1989, Dustin Poirier made his UFC debut in 2011 after impressing for World Extreme Cagefighting. He progressed up the card quickly, defeating the likes of Josh Grispi, Jason Young and Pablo Garza at the start of his career. He then crossed paths with McGregor in 2014, losing by TKO in the first round of their bout at UFC 178.
Poirier has since declared that this was a turning point which improved him as a fighter. Following this defeat he picked up several Performance of the Night bonuses and was finally rewarded with a title shot in 2019, defeating Max Holloway for the Interim Featherweight title. However, he only kept it for a matter of months as Khabib Nurmagomedov picked up the win in his very next contest. His current UFC record is 26-6-0.
On paper McGregor is probably the favourite but as the Irishman has been out for so long, Poirier will be confident of springing a surprise.
NXT pulled in 632,000 viewers, up slightly by 22,000 viewers from last week’s broadcast. With a 0.16 in the 18-49 demographic, NXT landed outside the top 50 cable chart again, this time at #56.

The new NXT North American champion, Leon Ruff, is a 24-year-old Florida native who made his pro wrestling debut in June 2017.
Ruff was unveiled as one of the latest students at the WWE Performance Center and signed a deal in July of this year. Throughout the year, Ruff made several appearances on WWE television and wrestled on Main Event, Raw, Smackdown, 205 Live, and even NXT.
Since March, Ruff wrestled Aleister Black, Sheamus, Karrion Kross, Tommaso Ciampa, Ever-Rise, Bronson Reed, Legado Del Fantasma, Drake Maverick, and his last match was against Austin Theory. All his matches were squash matches, the quickest one losing to Bronson Reed in just 24 seconds.
Ruff was often featured in EVOLVE and held the EVOLVE Tag Team titles once with AR Fox.
He is currently dating NXT referee Aja Smith and Smith confirmed their relationship when Ruff was destroyed by Karrion Kross a few months ago. “If you would have told me a year ago I’d be a referee, let alone referee my boyfriend’s match on TV, I woulda neverrrr believed it! Life is so cool. @LeonRuffsxe you’re always a winner to me,” she wrote back in May.
Now, Ruff finds himself holding the NXT North American championship, an outcome which surely no one ever imagined when NXT went on the air yesterday. “One of the greatest moments in my life @WWENXT C H A M P I O N,” he wrote on Twitter.
One of the most challenging aspects of having pets is that they can’t easily communicate these with their owners when they don’t feel well.
This is why many owners should be on the lookout for signs and recognizable symptoms of anxieties. You can see post here for more information about anxieties in canines. The pets that have medical conditions should be able to get available treatments whenever possible and schedule a visit to the veterinarian in the soonest time that they can.
Types of Anxieties in Canines
Separation Anxiety
This typically happens when you leave your home, and your pet is left alone. If it seems like they are barking their heads off or holding on to you for dear life, they may be anxious to be away from you.
Most often, the dogs will be able to differentiate the things that they value most in their lives, and these are eating, going on walks, playing, company, and more. The people around them during these comfortable and fun times are very important in their point of view.
When they are on their own, and they can’t see their pet parents, they may think that they can’t get into the good stuff and may become anxious in the process. Canines should learn to cope with being away from their owners, and the best time to train them is while they are young.
Barking when there’s a Loud Noise
Fireworks, thunderstorms, and other loud noises can trigger anxious feelings in many canines. Most were instinctively fearful of these events because they learned to associate them with something scary. Some may begin hiding or barking when they sense that the storm is coming.
To combat these, a lot of pet owners are looking for alternatives that can help. Some may use CBD as a supplement to help the canines become calmer when New Year’s Eve or Fourth of July arrives. You can know more about calming your anxious pet here: https://www.ccspca.com/blog-spca/education/anxious-dog/. If there’s a storm coming, you may see that they can sleep better and ignore the thunderstorms.
Common Signs of Anxieties
Howling and barking their heads off when their owners are not at home
Pacing and panting even if it’s cold
Uncontrolled shivers
Cowering or running into the house’s corners
Digging earth outside the yard
Escaping the yard by excitedly jumping through lower fences
Avoiding other animals and clinging to owners
Scratching at doors or furniture when they know that they won’t they can’t accompany you
Wanting to get your attention at all times
Barking excessively whenever your attention is not on them
Shows signs of weakness
Not interested in doing walks and other activities
Lethargy
Reasons why your Canine Follows you Everywhere
They Need Attention and Companionship
For people, they can talk to their boss, friends, families, and the public. They may even hang out with new people that they’ve just met. However, canines don’t have these options. It’s understandable why they are making their owners the centers of their worlds.
Your pet wants to be close to you at all times, and they want to be with you. Regardless if you are jogging around the block or you’re mowing the lawn, they want to be part of what you’re doing because they feel comfortable and safe in your presence. Some may be clingy because they felt fear, and they may paw at you for attention, but it will help to understand that they may get out of this phase sooner than you’ll realize.
They Want to Follow your Lead
The dogs may often treat their human parents as the alpha, especially if there’s a lot of other canines around. After all, they rely on their owners for food, training, shelter, and other necessities that they need to live. If you are taking care of them, expect that they will follow you wherever you go more often than they’ll do with other family members in the room.
Experiencing Separation Anxiety
It’s possible that your canine doesn’t want you to leave. He has settled into a routine every day, and he also knows your habits. He knows the time you’ll shower, brush your teeth, eat, change, and jog.
When they realize that you are leaving home after you are done, they will follow you around because they have the feeling that it will be long again before they see you. They may become upset when they see you leaving and experience separation anxiety.
