The Masked Singer is back!

WWE – after leaving rival wrestling company All Elite Wrestling. Rhodes, a former Intercontinental Champion in Vince McMahon’s company, was a driving force behind the formation of AEW in 2019.This came after the 36-year-old had ended a ten-year stint with WWE, where he’d been a consistent, regular performer without truly nailing a main event spot.The launch of AEW was seen as the first genuine competition to the sports entertainment juggernaut for decades, with Rhodes among the founding Executive Vice Presidents working with Owner Tony Khan.He was instrumental in AEW’s early success and enjoyed notable feuds with the likes of Chris Jericho, MJF and Darby Allin - as well as a long reign as TNT Champion.Rhodes was in the midst of a third reign with that title as recently as January of this year before dropping the gold to Sammy Guevara at Beach Break.Now it appears his time with AEW is done.

Machine Gun Kelly and Casie Colson Baker got in some father-daughter bonding time on Sunday (Aug. 1). MGK (aka Colson Baker, 31), and Casie, 13, hit the streets of Malibu, but not without stopping to pick up some refreshments first. The “My Ex’s Best Friend” singer treated his daughter to a smoothie for their trip. For this outing, MGK kept it casual – at least, casual for him – by wearing a t-shirt, multiple necklaces (including a leather choker), white Creeper-style shoes, and black-and-white ‘barbed-wire’ pinstriped pants. Just to add a cherry on top, MGK also outfitted the look with a unicorn ponytail, pulling his shaggy, dyed-blonde hair up in style reminiscent of 90’s-era Chris Jericho.
