WWE’s Kelani Jordan Retains NXT Women’s North American Title at Great American Bash

During week two of WWE NXT’s Great American Bash, the first of three title fights featured the Women’s North American Championship. The incumbent champion, Kelani Jordan, was set to defend her title against challenger Tatum Paxley, but another contestant would make a significant impact by the match’s conclusion. Throughout the bout, Paxley focused on weakening Jordan’s leg with repeated attacks. Although Jordan was injured and struggled with her offense for some time, she managed to regain her strength and engage in a high-flying battle with Paxley. Not only did Jordan execute a Spanish Fly and a Frog Splash from the top rope, but she also clinched victory, successfully retaining her title at the Great American Bash.

Henry Cavill “Said ‘Yes’ Right Away” to Marvel Cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine

Lo and behold! It’s not a bird, not a plane, but Henry Cavill’s Superman, who graced our screens (for what seemed like the last time) in a cameo opposite Dwayne Johnson in the 2022 DC film “Black Adam”. The brief scene, followed by Cavill’s declaration on social media that he was returning as Superman, hinted at an upcoming clash of superpowers between the Man of Steel and the Man in Black. However, with the transformation of DC Films into DC Studios, the demise of the DC Extended Universe, and a new cast led by David Corenswet taking over as the new Superman, it appears Cavill’s return may have been short-lived.

WWE’s Ethan Page Delivers Big NXT Title Win at Great American Bash

Following several unexpected assaults and sneak attacks over the past few weeks, it was long-awaited for Oro Mensah to face WWE NXT Champion Ethan Page in a one-on-one bout at the Great American Bash. In recent times, Mensah has managed to rile up Page by pinning him on several occasions, although these instances were not within official matches. This evening, Mensah aimed to show his worth, and he indeed succeeded, coming close to pinning the Champion multiple times during the contest. Regrettably, he fell short of defeating Page, as Page seized the opportunity when Mensah missed a move and secured the victory, thereby retaining his NXT Championship.
