Dwayne Johnson and John Cena’s return to WWE from their high-valued Hollywood career is a sign that things are changing around in the entertainment industry.

“One hundred percent,” Emmy winner Paul Walter Hauser said backstage Monday, he’s totally open to do a Calvin Klein underwear ad like Jeremy Allen White’s.

“I think I got some work to do before I get that phone call, but you know me, I’m not afraid of a challenge,” the Black Bird winner added.

How the hell did the conversation evolve to underwear ads backstage?

A reporter asked Hauser why he gave a shout-out to Matt Cardona during his acceptance speech but not Jeremy Allen White during his acceptance speech. The answer morphed into a wrestling promo: Slash Film says that Cardona is an indie wrestler, and that Hauser is scheduled to face him in the ring on March 16 at Wrestling Revolver’s “Ready or Not” show in Clive, Iowa.

As far as why Hauser didn’t name-check White; the actor says, “Because he’s a wrestler in Iron Claw.

We here at /Film love actor Paul Walter Hauser. The "I, Tonya," "Cobra Kai," and "Black Bird" star is one of the most exciting performers currently working today, and also one of the most unpredictable. Just before it was announced that he had won the statue for Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or TV Movie for "Black Bird," he had just taken a bite of something, meaning he started his acceptance speech still chewing. When he finally made it to the stage, he pulled out his phone and began reciting a rhyming speech from his phone.

His hands were shaking, likely from a combination of nerves and excitement, but it was certainly an odd choice to write a poetic acceptance speech that had a tinge of silliness. And then ... he got to the end. Following thank-yous to his wife, co-star Ray Liotta, and many others who helped him get to where he is now,...

Welcome to this review of Impact Wrestling’s Homecoming pay per view, which features a tournament to crown Impact’s King & Queen (of the Ring??) and a highly-anticipated X Division match… which, to be fair, we know Josh Alexander Isn’T going to lose? Why the hell would you take the belt off such an enigmatic and Over wrestler?

Welcome to this week’s Impact Wrestling review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and I thought of a better name for Impact…Glory Wrestling Combat. F–k you! It’s good! You’d call it Glory for short and it’d be a great way to remake Impact in the same vein as Pride, Bellator or Pancrase. You already have Bound For Glory, so the biggest show of the year now has a luster to it that it arguably didn’t have before, because it is the only show that has the name of the promotion in it. Shut up! It is so a good idea…or not. Whatever. F–k you. We have…wait…I forgot to write my Slammiversary review. Here’s the score for each match:

Decay (Havok and Rosemary) (with Black Taurus and Crazzy Steve) b. Fire ‘N Flava (Kiera Hogan and Tasha...

Welcome to this review of Impact Wrestling’s biggest event of the year, Slammiversary… Made even bigger the past couple of years thanks to a certain wrestling promotion “future endeavouring” people in time for their 90-day non complete clauses to expire in time for this PPV event. As always for pay per views, Spoilers lie ahead!!

Pre-Show Match: Decay (Havok & Rosemary) def. Fire ‘N Flava (Kiera Hogan & Tasha Steelz) – Knockouts Tag Team Championships The following is courtesy of impactwrestling.com:

The action begins on the Countdown to Slammiversary pre-show, streaming Live on PPV providers, Fite and Impact digital platforms! Havok catches Tasha in mid-air with a sit-down slam! Havok whips Rosemary into the corner. Rosemary tosses Kiera across the ring with a suplex for two. Tasha hits a sliding dropkick on Rosemary, allowing Kiera to gain control. Tasha and Kiera cut off the ring, preventing Rosemary from making the tag.

Welcome to this week’s Impact Wrestling review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a few matches before Under Siege. Steven Seagal: I’m on a boat and then a choo choo.

Welcome to this review of Impact Wrestling’s Rebellion event, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and this Rebellion Pay Per View of 2021 has what could be the biggest match of the year in Kenny Omega and Rich Swann fighting to decide who holds both the All Elite Wrestling and Impact World Titles. I’m excited to bring this review to you and…what the… Johnny Kookamunga: Bang baby! Me: Yes (shoots Johnny Kookamunga)…bang baby! It’s time for Rebellion. Maude Gupansky: Oh my God!

Match #1: Josh Alexander def. Ace Austin and Tjp – X-Division Match The following is courtesy of impactwrestling.com:

Ace takes out both of his opponents with a Fosbury Flop to the floor. Ace is about to give Tjp a papercut with his laminated playing card but referee Brian Hebner stops him.

The greatest thing about Ke$ha isn't the fact that "Tik Tok" is a phenomenally catchy song or that she makes for a fantastic cipher for all types of collaborators (seriously, there hasn't been a guest spot that she hasn't knocked out of the park). No, the best thing about Ke$ha is the fact that she is a phenomenal hybrid artist who draws her inspiration from dozens of disparate sources and somehow makes them work.

She is constantly unveiling new wrinkles to her incredibly twisty persona, and at Saturday's (May 15) Wango Tango concert in Los Angeles, she broke out a new gimmick. "This is Brian," she said, showing off the mannequin head that she had tucked under her arm. "Brian" came complete with a glam wig and a make-up job and served as Ke$ha's very own glitter dispenser. "She came from Tokyo, and she was in this prison,...
