Pat McAfee Being Sued By Brett Favre, McAfee Responds

Let the games begin. Multiple news outlets are reporting that NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre has filed three separate defamation lawsuits against Mississippi state auditor Shad White as well as national sports commentators Shannon Sharpe and Pat McAfee. From ESPN: Favre became involved in [a] public fraud case in 2020 after investigators in White’s office discovered that at least $77 million in public money from Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds, earmarked for the neediest families in the state, instead was used to line the pockets of rich and powerful Mississippians. According to a state audit and civil lawsuit in which Favre and dozens of others are named as defendants, Favre was paid $1.1 million in TANF funds for speeches White has said Favre never made. Favre eventually paid the money back, but the state auditor demanded Favre also pay $228,000 in interest.

SmackDown Results – December 30, 2022

Smackdown Date: December 30, 2022 Location: Amalie Arena, Tampa, Florida Commentators: Michael Cole, Wade Barrett It’s the final show of the year and that means we are going to be seeing more than a few big things this week. First and foremost, John Cena is back for his only match of the year as he teams with Kevin Owens to face Sami Zayn and Roman Reigns. In addition, we have the Women’s Title on the line as Ronda Rousey defends against Raquel Rodriguez. Let’s get to it. Here’s is Bray Wyatt for an opening chat. Wyatt does not see himself as a good person but he does try. Looking back at how he got here, he doesn’t regret much, but last week he did something that he did regret. Last week, he apologized a cameraman in cold blood and….here is LA Knight to interrupt. Knight cannot believe that the master of the mind games is here to apologize because he doesn’t buy any of this. Wyatt has been playing mind games and now it is time to pay the check. Knight remembers Wyatt being somethin..

Farewell? Wrestling Legend: “I’m Getting Too Old For This S***”

You have to hang it up sometime. Wrestling is a unique sport in that the wrestlers can have trouble getting out of the industry. Since they are always able to wrestle one more time, it can be easy to stick around that much longer. For other people involved in the industry, getting away is a bit easier, and now a wrestling legend sounds like he is considering wrapping up his career. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: That’s A Hot One: How A Former WWE Star (Literally) Set Backstage On Fire During a recent edition of his What Happened When podcast, AEW broadcaster Tony Schiavone talked about how Tuesdays and Wednesdays, the days he travels for AEW, “kind of wear” him out. Schiavone, 65 years old, said that he feels he is “getting too old for this s***” and said that his future is in podcasting and maybe playing video games. At no point did Schiavone say that he was retiring or considering retiring. Schiavone debuted with AEW at its launch and has provided commentary since. Schiavone is a legend. ..

Yes So Fast: Update On Drew McIntyre’s WWE Return Status

Welcome back. Injuries are a terrible thing to see in wrestling, as they can leave someone on the shelf for a long time to come. The only good thing about an injury is that most of the time, a wrestler is able to get back in the ring. That leads to a guessing game about when they will return, and now we know when one of the bigger WWE stars will be returning to the ring. IN CASE YOU’VE MISSED IT: He Did What? More On Huge Upset This Week On AEW Dynamite Drew McIntyre has been out of action over the last three weeks due to a ruptured eardrum, with the injury coming during Survivor Series: WarGames. McIntyre was pulled from a Tag Team Title match against the Usos last week as a result but no return date was announced. However, Madison Square Garden’s official website is advertising McIntyre’s return on December 26 in an eight man tag, teaming with Braun Strowman, Kevin Owens and Sheamus against the Bloodline. There is no word on if McIntyre will wrestle before then. McIntyre is worth ..

The Numbers Don’t Lie: Detailed Look At The Business Side Of WWE Survivor Series 2022

The numbers don’t lie. Last weekend, WWE presented its annual Survivor Series event, though this year’s edition was more than a little different. Instead of the usual elimination matches, WWE centered the show around a pair of WarGames matches, with the men and women both getting a chance. That is quite the twist, but things seem to have gone well, at least based on the numbers. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: He Wants Next: 25 Year Old NXT Phenom Wants To Face Roman Reigns, Many More The Wrestling Observer Newsletter has revealed some of the business numbers for this year’s Survivor Series.

SmackDown Results – December 2, 2022

Smackdown Date: December 2, 2022 Location: KeyBank Center, Buffalo, New York Commentators: Michael Cole, Wade Barrett We are done with Survivor Series and on the long road to the Royal Rumble, as there is somehow no major event between now and the end of January. That is a lot of time to fill and first up we are probably going to be seeing the Bloodline celebrate their WarGames win. Other than that, the World Cup wraps up this week so let’s get to it. Opening sequence. Here is most of the Bloodline to get things going. After a WarGames recap, Sami Zayn praises the Usos but Jimmy cuts him off, saying tonight is about Zayn. On Saturday, Zayn was the MVP and the fans were chanting SAMI USO (as they do here). Jey says he didn’t like Sami for a long time but now Zayn has earned his respect and they won WarGames because of him. Jimmy asks Sami how he’s feeling and that would be pretty FREAKIN UCEY. We get a three way special handshake between the Usos and Zayn, who even dances a bit. Cue ..
