TNA star Steph De Lander is all in on the WWE-TNA partnership—and she’s not afraid to say who she really wants to see cross over next.

Speaking with Jim Varsallone, De Lander couldn’t contain her excitement about the growing relationship between the two promotions, especially after seeing Santino Marella pop up in NXT.

“I think it’s super exciting. When I check my phone and I see Santino Marella has turned up on NXT, it’s hilarious. I love it. There are dream crossovers that you never thought would be possible that all of the sudden they are possible. Off the top of my head, if someone like AJ Styles were to ever show up in TNA, I think the place would become unglued.”

But one name she really wants in TNA? Chelsea Green. “I’m telling everyone that’ll listen that we need Chelsea Green to pop up on TNA, just because whenever Matt Cardona is in the ring, the whole crowd chants Chelsea’s better and we want Chelsea. There’s certain people that I want to show up on TNA.”

While she’s focused on bringing stars to TNA, De Lander also pointed out that plenty of TNA talent would thrive in WWE. “The other side too, there’s people from TNA that I think would really flourish in the WWE environment. On a personal note, I have unfinished business there, there’s a lot of people that I used to work with that are still there that have a right hand coming, whether it’s from me or Mance. I think Mance has never dabbled in the WWE realm before but I think it’s only a matter of time before that happens.”

With WWE and TNA working closer than ever, the possibilities for dream crossovers are endless. Steph De Lander is making it clear—she wants Chelsea Green in TNA, and she sees big things for TNA stars in WWE. Could we see more shocking appearances in the near future?

Charlotte Flair has seen it all in WWE’s women’s division, and when it comes to who’s next, she’s got a clear answer—Roxanne Perez.

During an Instagram Live session on Thursday, Flair was asked who she believes is the future of WWE’s women’s division, and she didn’t hesitate to put the spotlight on Perez.

“I was extremely, extremely impressed by Roxanne in the Royal Rumble. I think she killed it. So, my vote is Roxanne, she has a really bright future,” Flair said.

At just 22 years old, Perez has already stacked up an impressive resume, holding both the NXT Women’s Championship and ROH Women’s Championship. She turned heads at the Royal Rumble, showcasing her speed, agility, and technical skill against some of WWE’s biggest stars.

After dropping her NXT Women’s Title to Giulia at New Year’s Evil, Perez officially made the leap to the main roster and is now set to compete in the Women’s Elimination Chamber match against Alexa Bliss, Liv Morgan, Naomi, Bayley, and Bianca Belair.

With Flair’s endorsement and a prime spot in the Elimination Chamber, all eyes are on Perez to see if she can live up to the hype. Could The Prodigy be the next top star in WWE? Drop your thoughts below!

Sonya Deville is done with WWE, and she’s speaking out about the shocking phone call that ended her decade-long run with the company.

On her YouTube channel, Deville revealed that she was in the middle of contract negotiations when she got the unexpected news.

“I got the call. My contract was not being renewed with the WWE. I got the phone call. We were in the middle of negotiations, so I thought the phone call was going to be middle ground that we met on. An agreement on a contract. It was, ‘We are not renewing your contract.’ I was shocked.”

Deville, who first signed with WWE in 2015 after appearing on Tough Enough, said she put everything into her run, especially in recent years.

“At the end of the day, it’s a business. I think business-minded. For whatever the reason is, I don’t know the reason, and I could sit here and try to come up with one or guess. ‘It was definitely that. I said or did that.’ I put 150% effort in the entire ten years, but most importantly the last three. I went down to the Performance Center on my own time. Moved there for two months to train to get the rust off.”

Despite the unexpected exit, Deville said she quickly made peace with the decision, trusting that everything happens for a reason. That belief was reinforced when, just a week before WWE’s call, she landed her first big film project.

With her wrestling career now in the rearview mirror, Deville is focused on her next chapter—and she made it clear that big things are on the horizon.

“I’m excited. I have a lot of things coming up.”

Sonya Deville’s WWE chapter may have closed, but it sounds like her next move is already in motion. With a major film project lined up and doors opening outside of wrestling, she’s not slowing down anytime soon.

Whether she dominates Hollywood, steps into another ring, or surprises fans with something completely unexpected, one thing’s for sure—she’s just getting started. Where do you want to see Sonya Deville next? Drop your thoughts below!

Carmelo Anthony’s ex La La Anthony drops 3-word reaction on Angel Reese and son Kiyan Anthony’s TikTok

Carmelo Anthony’s ex-wife, La La Anthony, seems excited for son Kiyan Anthony’s podcast interview with WNBA star Angel Reese. The podcast will be released on Thursday across all streaming platforms. The duo seems hyped, too, about this collaboration. Reese uploaded a TikTok video of them shaking a leg to FendiDa Rappa and Shamar Marco’s hit, “Clock Dat.”

La La showed love to Reese and Kiyan on Instagram, reacting with three words.

“Love these two!!” La La wrote.

La La’s reaction to Angel Reese and Kiyan Anthony’s video

La La and Angel seem to share a close friendship. They are often showing love to each other on social media. Angel even gifted Kiyan’s mother a pair of her Reebok sneakers in September when her signature shoe line launched with the billion-dollar company.

“So proud of you, @angelreese5, on your @reebok collection. Continue to inspire so many of us!!! Love u always,” LaaLa wrote in an Instagram story.

It will be exciting for La La Anthony to see her son Kiyan Anthony catch up with Angel Reese on her podcast. Angel’s show has 72.1k subscribers. She has interviewed legends like Shaquille O’Neal, Dwyane Wade and Sheryl Swoopes on it, among others.

 

La La Anthony’s son Kiyan Anthony’s collab could help Angel Reese’s pod shift attention from negative headlines

Reese’s podcast has faced plenty of backlash since it was released. From her choices of guests to the themes they have spoken about, Reese has been in the news for many controversies.

One of the most common complaints against her podcast has been about Caitlin Clark-themed topics, and her going at the Fever star’s fanbase created quite a stir. She also invited some of Clark’s critics and rivals, like Sheryl Swoopes and DiJonai Carrington, on the show.

Reese’s podcast was under scrutiny again after Shaquille O’Neal’s questionable remarks went viral.

“Imagine you in those same little shorts you had on at the Wild ‘n Out show dunking. You know how many t-shirt you’re going to sell,” said O’Neal.

Amid all the negative attention the podcast has received, inviting Kiyan Anthony could be a great move for Angel Reese’s podcast. Kiyan is an up-and-coming four-star recruit and a consensus 2025 top-30 prospect.

Stephen A Smith has revealed quite an incredible body transformation.

The ‘First Take’ host has been getting clowned over his physical features in recent months, having gotten photographed on the beach next to a certain female companion.

His basketball skills have also come under criticism, with the New Orleans Pelicans putting out a lowlight tape of the ESPN star following his bashing of Zion Williamson. Smith has taken lots of heat these last few months but has kept on going and it would appear that his saving grace is now here as he has taken to social media to show off the results of a year-long fitness journey.

Stephen A Smith has posted a video to X/Twitter in which he shows a protruding stomach from a year ago before revealing how flat it is today. The 56-year-old also disclosed previously having up to 30 percent body fat while he was also very close to being considered diabetic.

Check out the video right below:

 

Here’s how social media reacted:

Stephen A Smith Is Reaping the Benefits Of Working With Shannon Sharpe

It’s hard not to feel inspired when you’re constantly around people who are in much better shape than you are.

Stephen A Smith has been working alongside former NFL star and three-time Super Bowl winner Shannon Sharpe for a while now and probably felt like he needed to step his game up.

While he would be the first one to admit he’s never going to be on Shannon’s level, Stephen A. has come a long way.

His efforts to slim down and flatten his stomach rightly earned him some praise. It also puts his criticism of Williamson in a slightly better light as an NBA star could certainly take strides to keep his body weight under control if an aging reporter could do it.

For those unaware, she is a female criminal in the game. Grand Theft Auto states that she did her time at a prison complex in the State of Leonida in the mid-2020s for an unknown crime.

As anticipation builds for the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, a picture shows Lucia stripped down to a two-piece bikini.

“They better have some awesome clothing to choose from. Gotta look cute while doing missions,” a second fan added.

A third fan knew they were no match for her: “If I was in a beauty contest against her, she’d get first place, and I’d get disqualified.”

“She’s beautiful, my sapphic heart can’t take it 🤧,” another X user added.

“not leaving my house anytime soon,” a fan stated about the impending release of the game.

“No arsenal, but ima be a gooner for sure, a sixth fan added.

One final fan added: “Anybody upset about a video game character needs to seriously reevaluate their life.”

Fans Have Waited A Long Time For Grand Theft Auto To Release New Game

After more than a decade of waiting, Grand Theft Auto VI is supposedly finally set to come out in 2025.

Despite their hopes for a release this year fading, the community remains engaged in hopes that a second trailer will be released in early 2025 and a release date of the actual game will come out.

With each passing day, the desire for more news grows stronger.

Hopefully, 2025 will give the fans what they so desperately want.

 

Sports fans love sports, and since the majority of them are men, they also like seeing attractive women speaking about it.

Emmy award-winning television host Amina Smith has joined ESPN as an anchor for SportsCenter and she is already going viral.

“Joining ESPN is truly a dream come true,” she said. “I’m excited for the opportunity to connect with fans blending my knowledge and passion for sports and entertainment to deliver engaging, fun, and thoughtful content.

“As a former athlete and being surrounded by sports my entire life, ESPN has always been in the picture and I’m ecstatic to finally call the network home – a place where I can continue to show up as my authentic self while connecting with viewers from all walks of life.”

 

Fans absolutely love her:

Smith joined NBC Sports Boston in 2021, where she served as an on-air and podcast host and contributor.

Her final day will be on March 20th. This may also be the date of her last broadcast — the Celtics play the Bucks at home that evening.

Amina Smith, who has spent the last three years as a Celtics and Patriots studio host at NBC Sports Boston, is married to Kansas City Chiefs safety Deon Bush.

Smith graduated from the University of Miami and started her professional career at 6 News in Lawrence, Kansas. From there, she would move into sports roles with Fox Sports, Big Ten Network, BET Networks, and Stadium Sports.

Living the Miami life, Jimmy Butler is never away from the glams and glitz around. After being embroiled in a dating rumor involving Shakira, Jimmy Buckets is not unaccustomed to the ways of the music world. Since bringing out his Emo persona at the media day, the 34-year-old has gradually picked up form over the course of the season.

With Playoffs approaching fast, the Heat ace is channeling all his focus to bring out the “Playoff Jimmy” and a little courtside encouragement from some notable faces surely does not hurt. One such face linked up with Miami’s number 22 in the game against the Pistons and Jimmy did not disappoint.

 

Jimmy Butler shares courtside moment with pop star

Jimmy Butler had the limelight on him in the Miami versus Detroit Pistons game not only because of his on-court performance but also for his off-court moment with singer and songwriter, Camila Cabello.

Camila is coming up with her new song after her last studio release in 2022. She made an appearance at the Kaseya Center to promote her song. The popstar gifted Butler a personalized jersey with her upcoming song’s name t written on it and he took no time to sport the jersey.

The 27-year-old posted a vlog on her Instagram handle sharing glimpses of her getting ready while her upcoming song was playing in the background. The video also featured her visit to the Miami arena wearing the custom-made jersey and her special moments with the Heat star.

 

During the game, Jimmy showcased his lethal touch and scored 26 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, leading the Heat to a 118-110 victory which was the cherry on top of the cake in the special guest’s presence. Camila’s IG video was captioned “and we won, what more can you ask for in this life?.”

This, however, isn’t Jimmy Buckets’ only moment in the recent pop music circuit. In fact, he has recently featured in the Fall Out Boys’ latest music video.

Jimmy went viral after grooving in Fall Out Boys music video

‘The Butler’ has been seen supporting Camila Cabello’s new song but he himself created a lot of buzz with his latest MV with the Fall Out Boys.

The Heat’s forward was seen grooving and mouthing lyrics in the Fall Out Boy’s “So Much (For) Stardust” music video. He was in a purple stone embroidered Co-Ord suit along with a cowboy hat that matched the outfit playing an emo cowboy’s role.

Butler has expressed that he has an immense love for country music and plans to release an album in the future. He also shared that being the DJ of the locker room, he gets to choose the music, to which even his teammates agreed.

As things are taking shape, don’t be too surprised if you see Jimmy featured in yet another high-profile music video in the postseason.

Haliey Welch, A.K.A the “Hawk Tuah” Girl, was quite emotional during her first promotional appearance.

The dough has been rolling in since Haliey described her go-to felatio move in a street interview. She’s making thousands selling merchandise and has booked multiple paid appearances, with one of them having taken place this week.

Haliey, who clocked over 1 million Instagram followers on Sunday, was celebrated by the DAER Dayclub at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and, at one point, got a little choked up.

The new internet sensation has brought her pal, Chelsea Bradford, along for the ride. Chelsea was the other girl with Haliey when she coined the term and has also been keeping up appearances.

The “Hawk Tuah” Girl Was The Center Of Attention At DAER’s Festivities

Welch was the subject of a champagne toast and was invited to judge the Miss DAER bikini contest. Despite having most of her body covered up, she was the one grabbing all the attention.

Check her out below:

 

 

According to TMZ, she was paid around $30,000 for the appearance.

The “Hawk Tuah” girl might be coming to a television near you soon enough as said outlet has reported that she’s nearing a reality TV deal, having secured representation from Hollywood agents.

Haliey’s agents have reportedly been in talks with producers, who are understood to be desperate to hand her a deal.

Kevin Love and Angel Reese (Photos via USA Today Images)
One-time NBA champion Kevin Love had a shocking comment to say about Angel Reese unprovoked.

LeBron James’ former teammate recently reacted to the WNBA superstar sharing her life goals.

Recently, Reese opened up about her personal and professional goals. One of which had the Chicago Sky star stating her life dream of becoming a billionaire.

“I’m Going to Be a Basketball Player, Model,” Reese Wrote. “An influencer Business Woman, Fashion Girlie, Podcastor, Unapologetic, Take Care of My Family/friends, Set Records. Create History. Be the First, Set Trends. Win at Everything in Life, Etc.”

She Further Stated, “My Goal in Life is to Be a Billionaire & I Will Without a Doubt So Yes Ima Focus on It All Equally While Learning & Growing but Also Pulling Others Along.”

 

Love saw Angel Reese’s comment about being a billionaire, and instead of ignoring it and moving on, he decided to post a shocking comment about it.

“I’m gonna go ahead and take the under,” Love commented.

Angel Reese Continues To Make History Off The Court

Angel Reese (Photo via @AngelReportt/X)
Once upon a time, Angel Reese was described as a bully entering the WNBA.

Reese taunting Caitlin Clark during the 2023 NCAA women’s basketball championship sparked a wave that would change her life for the better.

She was known back then, but her celebrity status reached another level because of the alleged ‘beef.’

Since then, Angel Reese has been a breaking force as the newest WNBA player.

Her skills on the court are undeniable, but she has also been able to utilize her brand outside of the WNBA.

Over the past year, Angel Reese has created Reese Pieces-inspired clothing and items and became the first college athlete to collaborate with huge name brands such as Dick Sporting Goods and Reebok.

Her most recent collaboration was a McDonald’s deal, which made her the first female basketball player to lend her name to a signature McDonald’s meal deal

LaVar Ball (The Arizona Republic, USA TODAY via Imagn Content Services, LLC)
LaVar Ball, the CEO of Big Baller Brand, recently underwent a surgical procedure to have his right foot amputated.

On Wednesday, TMZ Sports reported that LaVar Ball “is in good spirits” after requiring surgery to amputate his right foot. According to the outlet, Ball’s foot had to be amputated because of “a serious medical issue”, though further details are unclear.

We’ll provide more information on this matter if they become available.

The 57-year-old Ball became a media sensation in 2017 before his oldest son, Lonzo Ball, was selected second overall by the Los Angeles Lakers. That year, LaVar notably called Lonzo better than Stephen Curry and stated that his son would take the rebuilding Lakers to the playoffs in his rookie season.

Ball had a brief college basketball and football playing career, including a one-year stint with Washington State in 1987-88. He played college football at Long Beach City College as a tight end and later tried out for the New York Jets, though Ball never made the final roster.

 

LaVar Ball later played for the London Monarchs of the World League of American Football (later known as NFL Europe). Just over two decades later, he became a media darling and successful entreprenuer.

Here’s hoping that Mr. Ball has a safe and speedy recovery from the procedure.

Two Of LaVar Ball’s Sons Have Become NBA Standouts

For all the heat that LaVar got for praising his sons, Lonzo and LaMelo Ball have proven that they weren’t overhyped players. Before injuries began to pile up, the eldest Ball brother looked like a budding star in New Orleans and later Chicago.

Through his first six NBA seasons, Lonzo has averaged 11.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game. If he can stay healthy, the former No. 2 pick just might hit his ceiling.

LiAngelo never made it to the NBA, but LaMelo is sure crushing in on a lowly Charlotte Hornets team. He’s in the midst of a career year with 27.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game.
