WWE is expanding its Road to Survivor Series: WarGames schedule, announcing seven new live event dates across the United States and Canada. The newly added shows will take place throughout October and November, building toward Survivor Series: WarGames in Houston later that month. The tour serves as a lead-up to WWE's biggest fall event. In July, WWE, in partnership with Houston First Corporation and the Houston Astros, announced that Survivor Series: WarGames will be held at Daikin Park in Houston on Saturday, Nov. 28, marking the event's return to the city for the first time since 2017. This year's show will be the 40th annual Survivor Series and the fifth in a row to be built around the WarGames match, the team-based steel cage format where two full-sized rings sit side by side inside a single roofless cage. It will also mark the second straight year Survivor Series has been staged inside a Major League Baseball stadium, following last year's record-setting attendance at Petco Park in San Diego, home of the San Diego Padres. Houston brings a long history with WWE's biggest events, having previously hosted WrestleMania in 2001 and 2009, the Royal Rumble in 1989 and 2020, and Survivor Series itself in 2017, in addition to numerous episodes of Raw and SmackDown over the years. Daikin Park, formerly known as Minute Maid Park, last hosted a WWE premium live event with the 2020 Royal Rumble. WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque called Houston the perfect host city to mark what he described as a milestone chapter in Survivor Series' history. With seven live events now locked in across six weeks leading into the pay-per-view, the Road to Survivor Series: WarGames Tour gives fans across Canada, the West Coast, the Midwest, the Northeast, and the Southeast a chance to see WWE Superstars in action before the roster heads to Houston for the November 28 showdown.

WWE remains optimistic about Chelsea Green's injury status, according to WrestleVotes on Fightful Select Radio, and she is not expected to be removed from television or stripped of the Interim Women's Championship. The update comes after a difficult week for Green. She won the Interim WWE Women's Championship at SummerSlam 2026 on August 3, outlasting Charlotte Flair, Tiffany Stratton, Lash Legend, and Jade Cargill in a ladder match. The interim title was created after then-champion Rhea Ripley was ruled out with a torn meniscus that required surgery, opening the door for Green to finally capture her first world championship. Just days later, on the August 7 episode of SmackDown, Green teamed with Stratton in a Women's Tag Team Championship match against Fatal Influence's Fallon Henley and Lainey Reid. Green ended up taking the pinfall after Henley and Reid hit their Rolling Encore finishing move, and it was during that sequence that she suffered a broken orbital bone. Lash Legend and Nia Jax also attacked Green and Stratton after the match. Green addressed the injury herself in a video posted to Instagram, saying the situation felt different from injuries she'd played through before and that she was taking things day by day while processing the head trauma. It marked yet another setback in a rough stretch for Green, who has also dealt with a heart issue over the past year that required hospitalization and a medical procedure. The injury drew reactions from a wide range of names across wrestling, including Nikki Bella, Brie Bella, and Natalya, along with AEW stars such as Sammy Guevara and Thunder Rosa, as well as Green's real-life husband, Matt Cardona. The exact recovery timetable remains unclear, but WWE's stated optimism suggests the company does not currently see the injury as one that will force Green off television or require the title to be vacated. Given that Green only just captured her first world championship, WWE appears intent on letting her hold onto the title through her recovery rather than turning to a second interim reign so soon after the first.

Bayley's latest social media post reportedly did not land well with everyone backstage in WWE, according to WrestleVotes on Fightful Select. The video featured highlights from Bayley training at various locations alongside different wrestlers, including AEW star Mercedes Moné, and was set to the song "All In" by The Grouch & Eligh. She captioned the post "all or nothing, baby." Some WWE backstage personnel reportedly viewed the post as "eyebrow-raising." The reaction makes sense given the timing. Bayley's WWE contract is reportedly set to expire in October, and she has not wrestled for the company since a July 26 live event in Bakersfield, California. Her last televised appearance came at Saturday Night's Main Event on July 18 at Madison Square Garden, where she lost to Lyra Valkyria, who then attacked her after the match and later declared on Raw that she had run Bayley out of the company. Against that backdrop, a training video featuring an AEW star, set to a song sharing its name with AEW's biggest pay-per-view, read to many as more than a coincidence. AEW's All In event takes place at Wembley Stadium in London on August 30, and Bayley's "all or nothing" caption also echoes the branding of AEW's Double or Nothing event. Mercedes Moné, a longtime friend of Bayley's dating back to their time together in WWE's Four Horsewomen storyline with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, has added to the speculation herself, having previously shared a fan-made graphic teasing a possible match between the two at AEW WrestleDream. Even so, people close to the situation inside AEW reportedly aren't convinced anything is imminent. Bryan Alvarez said on Wrestling Observer Live that sources within AEW are just as confused by the teasing as everyone else, and that Bayley is believed to remain under WWE contract through around January once any additional time the company tacks on is factored in, making a Bayley-Moné AEW match unlikely in the near term. Dave Meltzer has reported separately that Bayley has not signed a new WWE contract and currently has a decision to make about her future. Nothing has been confirmed by Bayley, WWE, or AEW, but between the backstage reaction, the contract uncertainty, and the ongoing storyline with Valkyria, her long-term status with the company remains one of wrestling's more closely watched situations heading into the fall.

WWE is expected to expand SmackDown back to a three-hour format beginning in January 2027, with the current target date for the switch set at January 8, according to WrestleVotes on Fightful Select. This isn't the first time the Blue Brand has gone through this. SmackDown first expanded from two hours to three hours on January 3, 2025, shortly after moving from Fox to USA Network. That run lasted roughly six months before the show reverted back down to two hours in July 2025, with insiders reportedly unhappy that the extra hour was dragging down show quality. SmackDown then expanded back to three hours again on January 2, 2026, starting with an episode from Buffalo, New York, before settling into what now looks like an annual pattern — three hours from January through June, two hours from July through December. If the January 8, 2027 report holds, it would mark the third straight year SmackDown has expanded to three hours to open the calendar, continuing the same six-month cycle WWE has now used twice already. Raw has already run as a three-hour show for years, so this change doesn't introduce anything new to WWE's weekly programming overall. What stands out is that SmackDown still hasn't committed to the longer format full-time the way Raw has, instead treating it as a seasonal adjustment tied to how the network broadcast deal with USA is structured season to season. There's also been genuine internal disagreement over whether the extra hour is worth it. Multiple reports from inside WWE have indicated that some people within the company aren't fans of the three-hour SmackDown format, citing a noticeable dip in show quality whenever the extra hour gets added, with matches and segments often padded out just to fill time rather than because the story called for it. At the same time, a three-hour show gives WWE more room to spotlight a deeper roster, build out midcard storylines, and give NXT call-ups a real platform, which has mattered more recently as WWE has pushed several new names up to the SmackDown roster and refreshed the show's presentation. Nothing is official yet, and WWE has not confirmed the change directly, but if the January 8, 2027 target holds, it would confirm the three-hour SmackDown format has become a fixed part of how WWE plans its television calendar each year rather than the one-time experiment it looked like back in January 2025.

Amazing Red has revealed how a horrific injury during a WWE 2K motion-capture session derailed what he believed was his biggest chance to become a WWE Superstar. The injury happened just one week before the 2016 Cruiserweight Classic, where Red was expected to compete and hoped to finally earn a WWE contract. While speaking with Chris Van Vliet, Red explained that WWE 2K had brought him in to perform several moves for the video game. One of them was his Spiral Tap, which he was asked to perform repeatedly. After already doing the move seven or eight times, Red said he felt he should stop, but was asked to do it one more time. “Can you just do one more, man? I'm so sorry. Can you do just one more and we're going to have you do this and then we'll go into a whole set of moves after this.” Red agreed, but the next attempt went horribly wrong. He explained that two crash pads had been placed underneath him, with a gap where they connected. “For some reason, I just jump and everything just blacks out for me. And I don't know where I'm at. So I just jump, instant darkness. And I hear this. And I wake up and I'm on the crash pads and my leg is backwards.” Red said his foot had gone between the two crash pads during the flip. He initially felt nothing, but Loki quickly realized how serious the injury was and shouted for help. “He broke his leg.” Red said that once his leg was moved, the pain hit him immediately. He described the moment as particularly devastating because he believed the WWE 2K project and Cruiserweight Classic were finally going to lead to his WWE breakthrough. The Cruiserweight Classic was scheduled to begin the following week, meaning the injury came at the worst possible time. Red was later told that WWE could potentially plan a second season of the tournament, but that opportunity never came.

Amazing Red has opened up about his 2005 WWE dark match against CM Punk, revealing that he believed the bout could be his chance to finally earn a WWE contract. However, Red claims several of his signature moves were vetoed before the match, leaving him unable to showcase the style that had made him stand out. Speaking with INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, Red recalled that he initially expected to wrestle someone else in a quick squash match, but WWE changed the plans and paired him with Punk. His friends, including Jimmy Wang Yang, told him that being booked for a dark match meant WWE could be looking at him for a potential signing. Red said he and Punk discussed ideas for the match, but several of the moves he wanted to perform were rejected. “Being very transparent here where the moves that I wanted to do, Code Red, my Flatliner, my standing shooting star, I wanted to get that out in the world that I made this up at that point because you're on WWE. Once this happens, WWE, it's officially yours. And every time I mentioned something to him, I don't know if it was him, but every time I mentioned something to him, it came back and got vetoed. You can't do a shooting star. Kidman does it. And Kidman is going to get hot. You can't do Code Red because Ray does it and he's going to get hot. And you got this move. You can't do that move.” Red said Jimmy Wang Yang noticed what was happening and told him: “They're kiboshing all your stuff, bro. Purposely.” The match itself did not go the way Red had hoped, and afterward he spoke with John Laurinaitis. Red recalled that Laurinaitis asked about his experience wrestling in a larger ring before telling him, “Well, you look blown up, so, you know, we'll give you a call.” When Red asked what else he needed to improve, Laurinaitis simply replied, “Get bigger.” Red ultimately never received the WWE contract he was hoping for. Looking back, however, he no longer blames Punk for what happened, explaining that both men were simply trying to secure their own opportunities in WWE. “Two guys trying to get a job.” Red added that despite his previous bitterness, he has no hatred toward Punk: “No, no, I don't hate him. I love that dude, honestly.”

The anticipation for Emraan Hashmi's return to one of his most iconic roles is translating into significant numbers at the box office. As of 9 pm on the final day before its release, Awarapan 2 has shown a very strong momentum in advance bookings, indicating that the nostalgia for the 2007 prequel combined with a fresh narrative is striking a chord with the audience. The film has officially become the 17th Bollywood release since August last year to cross the 200,000 ticket sales mark on BookMyShow during its pre-sale period. Looking at the hourly trends on the primary booking platform, the movie saw a sharp spike in the evening, with approximately 11,570 tickets sold between 8 pm and 9 pm alone. This brings the total tickets sold on the platform between 7 am and 9 pm today to nearly 88,000. When we look at the progress over the last few days, the growth has been consistent. Starting with about 7,000 tickets on August 10, the volume jumped to nearly 36,000 on August 11, and reached over 65,000 by August 12, culminating in a pre-release total of more than 108,000 tickets on the platform prior to the final day's surge. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) In terms of national cinema chains, the movie has comfortably crossed a major milestone. Over 1 lakh tickets were sold for the opening day in advance across the three major multiplex circuits. The total gross from these chains stands at approximately ₹4.0 Cr. Breaking this down with rounded figures, PVR has contributed significantly with a gross of roughly ₹2.0 Cr from about 51,000 tickets. Inox followed with nearly ₹1.2 Cr from approximately 35,000 tickets, while Cinepolis added about ₹0.75 Cr from over 20,000 tickets. These figures place Awarapan 2 ahead of several recent major releases like Housefull 5, Shaitaan, and Raid 2 in terms of final pre-sales volume. On an all-India level, the advance booking gross for Day 1 has reached approximately ₹5.86 Cr across 8,619 shows, representing nearly 1.94 lakh tickets sold. If we include blocked seats, the total gross figure climbs to roughly ₹8.63 Cr. These numbers reflect a wide interest in the Hindi-speaking markets, where the character of Shivam has maintained a cult following for nearly two decades. The average ticket price has been maintained at around ₹240, ensuring accessibility for a broad range of the actor's fanbase. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The success of these advance bookings is deeply rooted in the legacy of the original 2007 film directed by Mohit Suri. The first Awarapan was a turning point in Emraan Hashmi's career, showcasing his range as an intense dramatic actor beyond his serial kisser image. Known for its hauntingly beautiful soundtrack and the themes of tragic love and redemption, the film became a cult classic over the years. This sequel, which sees Hashmi returning to the gritty, emotional world of the franchise, has managed to tap into that established emotional connection, driving high expectations for the opening day performance. With the final pre-release data now in, Awarapan 2 is positioned for a healthy start at the box office. Having surpassed the final pre-sales of other notable sequels and star-led projects like Welcome To The Jungle and Cocktail 2, the film has proven that there is still a massive appetite for grounded, atmospheric action-dramas. All eyes will now be on the spot bookings and early reviews tomorrow to see if the film can sustain this impressive early momentum throughout the weekend.

The biographical film based on the life of the legendary filmmaker V. Shantaram has been generating a lot of curiosity since its announcement, especially with the interesting casting of Siddhant Chaturvedi and Tamannaah Bhatia. While the project was originally expected to start its production cycle earlier this year in April, the lack of updates led to several rumors suggesting the film might have been shelved. However, new information has clarified that the project is very much on track, though the timeline has shifted significantly. According to an exclusive report by Bollywood Hungama, the film's director, Abhijeet Shirish Deshpande, has confirmed that the production has now been moved to 2027. The primary reason for this delay was a two-month setback in the initial planning stages, which eventually threw the entire shooting schedule out of sync. Since the team wanted to avoid the complications of the monsoon season for their outdoor sequences, they decided it was better to wait for a fresh window next year rather than rushing into a disjointed production. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The revised plan is to now commence shooting in April 2027. This timeline is strategically designed to allow the crew to finish all the necessary outdoor sequences first, before utilizing the subsequent monsoon months for interior shoots. Beyond the logistical benefits, the delay is also being used to strengthen the ensemble. The filmmaker revealed that they are currently in the process of adding a few more significant names to the cast to join Siddhant and Tamannaah, who will be portraying Shantaram and his second wife, the actress Jayashree, respectively. For those familiar with Indian cinema history, this biopic is quite an ambitious undertaking. It aims to chronicle Shantaram’s remarkable journey through the most transformative eras of filmmaking, starting from the silent era and moving into the advent of sound and color. The narrative will highlight his evolution as a visionary who directed iconic films like Do Aankhen Barah Haath, Dr. Kotnis Ki Amar Kahani, and Pinjara. For Siddhant Chaturvedi, this marks his first biographical role, and he has previously expressed how deeply the filmmaker's perseverance and artistic legacy have moved him during his research for the character. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) While the wait for the film has become a bit longer, the decision to delay seems to be a calculated move to ensure the project gets the scale and precision a figure like V. Shantaram deserves. By aligning the shooting schedule with the weather and refining the cast, the makers are positioning this biopic to be a meticulous tribute to one of India’s most influential cinematic pioneers. Fans of historical dramas will now have to keep an eye out for 2027 to see this visionary’s life unfold on the big screen.

Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed could be heading to AEW soon, according to a new Fightful Select report. Neither man has officially confirmed a deal with Tony Khan's company, but sources say it's "expected" they'll join in the near future. Both men have been announced for Chris Jericho's wrestling cruise this November, appearing under the names "Kofi" and "Austin Creed." There's also growing speculation that they could show up sooner — possibly at AEW's All In event at Wembley Stadium on August 30. Wrestling veteran Jim Ross has weighed in too, noting that while he believes the pair could be a strong fit, AEW would need real room in its tag division to sign a full team rather than a single star. If it happens, they could slot into AEW's tag scene alongside recent additions like the Motor City Machine Guns, with the AEW Tag Team Championship currently held by Adam Copeland and Christian Cage. Austin Creed is better known to WWE fans as Xavier Woods, one-third of The New Day alongside Kofi Kingston and Big E. Woods spent 16 years with WWE, becoming a multi-time Tag Team Champion and building a major second career as a content creator through his gaming YouTube channel, UpUpDownDown. He and Kofi mutually parted ways with WWE on May 2, 2026, after being asked to restructure their contracts under new owner TKO — deals they weren't happy with. His non-compete clause expired in early August, and he's since rebranded as Austin Creed for his next chapter. Kofi Kingston's exit hit harder given his history. He debuted with WWE in 2008 and spent nearly 20 years with the company, becoming a former WWE Champion (his emotional WrestleMania 35 win in 2019), multiple-time Intercontinental Champion, and a cornerstone of The New Day's record-setting title reigns. Like Woods, Kingston was reportedly asked to sign a new deal for less money, with his final WWE appearance coming on SmackDown in April 2026 before his release was announced that May.

Mumbai, August 13 - Director Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana Part 1 is expanding its theatrical footprint to China, marking another major step in the makers' ambitious global release strategy. The Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and Yash starrer is reportedly confirmed for a November release in the Chinese market, where it will be presented under the title Ramayana: The Legend of the Prince. The China release could prove to be particularly significant for the film, given how massive it can be for an Indian title. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) China is obviously not a regular market for Indian cinema. Only a handful of Indian films have managed to make a significant impact there, with Dangal being the biggest example. The Aamir Khan starrer turned into an unprecedented phenomenon, earning more than $200 million in China and demonstrating just how massive the market can become when an Indian film genuinely connects with Chinese audiences. The challenge for Ramayana is that the Chinese theatrical landscape has changed considerably since Dangal. Domestic productions now dominate the market, with Chinese films accounting for more than 80% of the country's total box office in 2025. The trend has continued into 2026, with domestic titles commanding the majority of the market share, making it increasingly difficult for foreign films to break through. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) But this is where content becomes the biggest factor. China's dominance of domestic cinema doesn't mean foreign films cannot succeed; it simply means that a film has to give audiences a strong reason to choose it. Recent exceptions such as Zootopia 2 and Spider-Man: Brand New Day have shown that a foreign production can still become a massive hit when it strikes the right chord with Chinese audiences. For Ramayana, the opportunity is therefore enormous, but so is the uncertainty. The film has the scale, epicness and universal themes of good versus evil, family, sacrifice and duty that could potentially travel beyond India. If those elements resonate with Chinese audiences, the ceiling could be extremely high. After all, Dangal proved that an Indian film can overcome the limitations of the market and create genuine hysteria in China when the content clicks. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) A Dangal-like phenomenon is obviously a massive ask, especially in today's more domestically dominated Chinese market. But the beauty of the China opportunity is that Ramayana doesn't necessarily need to perform like a conventional foreign release. If the film gets the Chinese audience talking and generates strong word of mouth, the market could transform from being just another overseas territory into one of the biggest contributors to its worldwide box office. In China, it will ultimately come down to one thing — whether Ramayana clicks. If it does, the sky could be the limit.
