30 years ago today the greatest promo in pro wrestling history was cut by Stone Cold Steve Austin. Happy 30th anniversary to the Austin 3:16 promo!! @steveaustinBSR 🍺🍻
We are saddened and heartbroken to share the news of the passing of Kyle Busch, a two-time Cup champion and one of our sport's greatest and fiercest drivers. He was 41 years old.
We extend our deepest condolences to the Busch family, Richard Childress Racing and the entire motorsports community.
Cirie is by far the greatest Survivor player to never win the game. Thank you Cirie for gracing us on our TV screens for all these years! What a Survivor career it has been for her. #Survivor50
Statement from Amazon MGM Studios:
“The search for the next James Bond is underway. While we don’t plan to comment on specific details during the casting process, we’re excited to share more news with 007 fans as soon as the time is right.”
Caught up on #Survivor50. Man Ozzy you should’ve played your idol!!! How do you make the same mistake twice in your survivor career??? Getting voted out with an idol in your pocket AGAIN!! So sad and funny to watch.
RIP Ted Turner. He was responsible, among many other things for the fierce competition between WCW & WWE in the 90s. Without him there would be no Monday Night War and the wrestling business would be very different from what we know today. Condolences to his friends & family🙏♥️
Ted Turner has passed away. His influence stretched far beyond the realm of pro wrestling, but his liking for it and what it did for his TBS Superstation in those early years led to a period of competition that is unrivaled. Without him, there is no Monday Night War.
It’s taken me two full days to respond to all my texts. I hadn’t been on social media until today and I’m overwhelmed by all the messages here too. So much love.
So I can’t help but to be filled completely with gratitude…
My story has been nothing short of remarkable and I am truly blessed to have had such an illustrious, accolade-laden and, most importantly, fun-filled career. I made my childhood dream become the most wonderful reality.
Throughout this journey, I’m so thankful to have been surrounded by great friends and to have built so many unbreakable connections with people that I’m very proud to call my family.
Most people go through life without ever experiencing a love like I have for Woods and E. That bond alone would have made this whole experience worth it.
There are far too many people to mention by name here, but to everyone who has ever supported me, guided me, helped me, taught me, cheered for me, praised me, stood up for me, and even rooted against me: Thank you. I appreciate you more than words can say.
My main mission has always been a simple one: To provide a comfortable life filled with heartwarming memories for my family. And, largely in part to all of you, I can proudly say that I have achieved that goal and more.
This wasn’t supposed to be a novel, so let me wind it down with some advice:
Do your best to live a life without regrets, control what you can control, always give it your all, and fight hard for what you believe in.
Do not ever compromise or accept less than your due when it comes to your worth.
Find the courage to believe in yourself and fearlessly pursue your goals and dreams, because anything is possible.
The kid that was too small, short, skinny, and scrawny was never supposed to make it in this land of giants…yet here we are.
And so…
…as the sun sets on one chapter, so too must it rise in another. Tomorrow is indeed…a New Day. ☀️
For the past 16 years, WWE has been my home. It’s where I grew up, found myself, failed, learned, and got to live out things the younger version of me could only dream about.
When I first walked into FCW, I just wanted a chance to prove I belonged and to bring something different to professional wrestling. That chance became a life full of moments I’ll carry with me forever — WrestleMania, championships, King of the Ring, arenas around the world, and the gift of connecting with all of you by being myself.
The New Day gave me a bond with @TrueKofi and @WWEBigE that I’ll cherish for life. You believed in us, even when our ideas were wild, and because of that, we got to show people that being unapologetically yourself is a strength.
UpUpDownDown became another piece of that same mission: a place for joy, friendship, and humanity. I’m so thankful to everyone, past and present, who helped build it brick by brick.
To the locker room, producers, trainers, crew, camera teams, ring crew, everyone behind the scenes, and the props department - thank you. WWE has the most special and hardest working props department that youll ever find. Love you guys and none of this happens without you.
And to everyone who has been part of this ride: thank you for believing in me. Thank you for letting me be Xavier Woods. Thank you for giving me the confidence… to walk away as Austin Creed.
The location for Wrestlemania 44 should not be anywhere else but New Orleans. They got fucked out of hosting WM 42. They are owed a wrestlemania. End of story.
Nick Khan teased the location of WrestleMania 44 in 2028 during a Town Hall meeting this week:
“Wait until you hear the announcement on where we’re going to be for WrestleMania in 2028.”
