• “Your programming will not be viewed in my home” – Kevin Nash Slams ABC For Pulling Jimmy Kimmel Live

WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash, who has been quite vocal about political issues in the past, has publicly criticized ABC following the network’s decision to pull “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” from its schedule.

The decision came after backlash to Kimmel’s comments about conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s death, who was shot during a speaking event at Utah Valley University on September 10. The suspect, Tyler Robinson, reportedly targeted Kirk and admitted to being motivated by Kirk’s rhetoric.

During Monday’s episode of his show, Kimmel said Robinson was part of the “MAGA base,” a remark many viewers saw as unfairly blaming conservatives for the attack. Kimmel went on to criticize right-wing figures for their politicized response to Kirk’s death.

Below is what Nash posted on X:

“Well @ABCNetwork you’re programming will not be viewed in my home. I guess freedom of speech doesn’t exist at your network. In times like this America looks for a spine. I’ll wait and see where @jimmykimmel lands. Pathetic!”

A lot of people from the left wing agree with the nWo member, saying free speech is being silenced in the United States, while many on the right believe ABC made the right call in suspending Kimmel’s show.

• WWE Announces New International PLE

WWE has significantly expanded its global presence in recent years by hosting several major Premium Live Events outside the United States. The company has held shows in multiple countries, including Australia, Puerto Rico, France, Germany, the UK and Saudi Arabia.

Italy is the next country that will get its first WWE Premium Live Event next year, as confirmed by WWE President Nick Khan.

While speaking to SportsBusiness during the 2025 IMG x RedBird Summit, Khan confirmed that Italy will join the list of international markets hosting WWE PLEs “early next year.”

“Nearly half of our Premium Live Events now take place outside the United States. We believe WWE is a global brand, and the results of these shows, both in terms of attendance and local and global ratings, have been significant. We have seen year-over-year increases in ratings for each of these events.”

WWE already tested the Italian market earlier this year by holding SmackDown in Bologna on the road to WrestleMania. The upcoming PLE in Italy coincides with WWE programming’s move to Netflix in the country starting next year.

• Bret Hart Says Triple H Never Had a Single Great Match

Bret “The Hitman” Hart is not a big fan of WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H. He made it known in the past, and he has just done it again.

While speaking during the Manchester leg of his current Inside The Ropes tour, Hart described Triple H as “a guy I had very little respect for.” He went on to say that he wishes The Game was in the locker room when The Hitman knocked out Vince McMahon after the Montreal Screwjob.

“Triple H, I wish he’d been in the dressing room when I knocked Vince out…because he might not be married to Stephanie.”

The 3-time WWE Hall of Famer also said there isn’t a single Triple H match that he would consider great, and he called the WWE CCO a “phony” who “became Vince’s hit guy.”

This is not the first time Hart took shots at Triple H. In the past, he called the 14-time World Champion overrated and said he’s only remembered because of Vince McMahon.

• “I’ll boot you off the face of this earth faster than Charlotte booted you out of your house” – AEW Star To Andrade

Andrade was released by WWE due to disciplinary issues last week. Immediately after the news broke, AEW’s MJF reacted quickly, inviting Andrade out for a margarita before his upcoming match with Mistico in Mexico.

Andrade responded with a middle finger emoji and teased that he’ll see MJF soon.

“@The_MJF #VivaMexico CABRO….”

MJF replied back:

“Oh it’s like that? Okay, Perro.”

Andrade challenged MJF to a Mask vs. Hair Match later.

“IN MEXICO! It’s MASK VS HAIR @The_MJF p**sy!!”

However, the former AEW World Champion did not accept it.

“lol. No. Get over without burning another bridge then we can discuss us having a match at all. P**sy.”

Andrade then tweeted:

“Ok! See you Be careful in !!!”

MJF then took a dig at Andrade’s beef with Sammy Guevara, whom El Idolo punched backstage during a physical altercation when he was in AEW. He also poked fun at Andrade and Charlotte Flair’s divorce.

“A) I love Sammy (no I don’t) but I’m not him. F**king try me.

B) I’ll boot you off the face of this earth faster than Charlotte booted you out of your house, amigo.”
