AEW grapples with a social media firestorm lift up by Max Caster, one-third of the reigning Trios Champions. ## Caster sparked outrage after expressing his disapproval towards the potential signing of former WWE wrestler Shelton Benjamin. His blunt statement, "We don't want him!", triggered a fierce backlash from fans on social media. ## What followed was a confusing sequence of events. Caster engaged in heated exchanges defending his stance, only to later claim his account was hacked. However, he maintained his agreement with the content of the controversial posts, adding to the bewilderment. ## Further, Caster refused to take down the offensive remarks, despite the mounting criticism. This unwavering stance further tarnished his online image and exacerbated the situation. ## Hello, users of X (formerly Twitter). My followers, my former followers, and wrestling fans... ## Last night, while I was asleep, I was hacked by a hacker. That person proceeded to correspond antagonizing messages to you, the fans. They caused a lot of problems that I would never intend to start. ## Ironically, I stand behind all the opinions and statements made by my hacker, and I will not be deleting the posts. However, rest assured that I have full control of my account once again. Thank you for understanding. ## Humbly, The Best Wrestler Alive. ## Never thought I’d have to do this… Please understand at this difficult time 🙏 pic.twitter.com/KcfqlBBy06— ''Platinum'' Max Caster (@PlatinumMax) March 11, 2024 ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Sasha Banks, known for her impactful career in WWE from 2012 to 2022, finds herself at a crossroads.## On May 16, 2022, during a Monday Night Raw episode, Banks and her tag team partner Naomi reportedly walked out due to dissatisfaction with the creative direction. This resulted in a public dispute with WWE management. While Banks and Naomi haven't publicly addressed the reason, WWE claimed the duo left their championship titles and walked out on the Head of Talent Relations. This disrupted the planned main event, forcing last-minute changes. ## WWE responded by suspending Banks and Naomi indefinitely, stripping them of their championship titles. Negotiations reportedly broke down in summer 2022 regarding compensation, leading to Banks' departure from the company. Since December 2022, Banks, now wrestling under the name Mercedes Moné, has been competing in other promotions like New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and its sister promotion World Wonder Ring Stardom. ## While appearing on the Kick Rocks podcast, Mone explained how she felt about her move. ## "That's a big question. That's a big, big question. You know, I really believe in not only the universe, but I believe in myself, and I believe in such a higher power of light that comes over me, okay? Something inside of me told me I needed to go do this and stand up for myself.## It was a very hard decision because wrestling in WWE has been my whole life. If people don't know, it's been my whole life. And it's the hardest decision I've ever had to make in my whole life, but it's the most proudest. It's crazy because I would not be sitting here living the best version of my life and getting to be everything I've ever dreamt of. ## Wow! I get to be everything I ever dreamt of and more. You have no idea. And it makes me so excited because that moment changed my whole life for the better. I'm so thankful for that moment, moment. I'm so proud of myself. I'm so proud of Trinity. I'm so proud absolutely of just how strong we were. Because like you said, everybody wanted to talk about it. Everybody wanted to act like they were in the room, negatively, though. ## There was not one positive thing. I don't know. That I just - everybody acted like they were in the room or worked there or were backstage or knew what happened or knew what said. But all I know is that I handled it like a CEO, like the boss that I am, with my head held up high. And I can't say nothing but amazing things to WWE. ## I'm so thankful for the career that they gave me, the fans that they gave me, the life that they gave me. Wow! The dreams that they gave me, so many dreams. And I got to chase and live them all. I get to do them, you know, so much more amazing. And like I said, I have a lot of unfinished business in wrestling, in a lot of places." ## If you use any of the quotes above, please credit the original source with a h/t and link back to Sacnilk for the transcription. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Mumbai, March 11 - After the very good first-weekend collection with 54 crores net, Ajay Devgn-fronted Shaitaan sees a drop of over 60% on its first Monday and the same is around 50% from Friday on which the collection benefitted by Maha Shivratri holiday. ## According to early estimates, the supernatural thriller mints 6.75-7.25 crores net collection on its first Monday, which takes the total collection to around 61 crores in 4 days. The drop from Sunday as well as from Friday is slightly higher than normal but can be called a decent hold as the biz gets hit during Ramazan days. ## Shaitaan has been made on a controlled budget and a consistent performance from here on will take it to a healthy total. The movie, however, needs to show solid consistency during the weekdays to make sure it doesn't drop further beyond normal decline and that would take it to around 77 crores in the full first week. The film emerged as a success but it might not turn into that huge hit which looked like a possibility after the very good weekend collection.## Meanwhile, Article 370, starring Yami Gautam collects an estimated 85 lakh net on its third Monday. This takes the total collection of the film to around 66.50 crores in 18 days and it is heading towards finishing around 75 crores net which is a super hit collection. ## Stay tuned...
