The Artemi Panarin story smells even more
Yesterday, we pointed out the fishiness of the Artemi Panarin story.

Joe Maddon thinks David Fletcher is great, but shouldn’t be throwing others under the bus about it

Is WWE putting a title on Matt Riddle ignorance, direct retaliation, or something in between?
WWE isn’t known for its sensitivity, and at times is quite proud of that, and that was clearly evident on Sunday night during the company’s “Elimination Chamber” pay-per-view event.
