Liv Morgan sent a three-word message after attacking a male WWE star. Morgan is the reigning Women’s World Champion and is a member of The Judgment Day on RAW.
The promotion shared footage today of the champion hitting Kevin Owens with an Oblivion at a live event. Dominik Mysterio followed it up with a 619 for a near fall after his Judgment Day stablemate connected with the move. The company also asked an interesting question in the captions of the Instagram post.
Thanks for the submission!

Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio have been in a storyline relationship since SummerSlam 2024. Mysterio used to be in a romance storyline with Rhea Ripley, but betrayed The Eradicator in favor of Morgan at the PLE two years ago.
Rhea Ripley won the WWE Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 42 but is currently out of action due to a major injury. Becky Lynch and Stephanie Vaquer both recently returned on RAW and are chasing after Morgan’s Women’s World Championship.
Popular WWE star comments on working with Liv Morgan
Dominik Mysterio recently shared what it was like working with Liv Morgan in WWE.
In an interview with Paper Magazine, Dirty Dom noted that he enjoyed working with Morgan and hoped that they remained a storyline couple for the rest of their careers.
“Man, she’s the absolute best. She brings out the best in everybody because she’s always just so positive, very encouraging, honestly, just a joy to be around, and absolutely blessed to be able to work with her. I started off with Rhea Ripley, went on to Liv Morgan. Two of the best of the best. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about Liv, and I hope that we stay together. We work for a reason. There’s lots of gold around the Judgment Day, and it’s thanks to her,” said Dominik Mysterio.

Monday was scheduled to be the final day for Luka Doncic‘s Los Angeles Lakers minicamp in his native Slovenia. It provided the team with an invaluable opportunity to start learning how to play with and be successful with each other, especially given all the new players it has.
The Lakers have added nine new players this summer and lost LeBron James, Marcus Smart, Rui Hachimura, Luke Kennard and Jaxson Hayes in free agency. The hope is that this minicamp will give them a head start once official training camp starts several weeks from now.
Advertisement
At that camp in Slovenia, Hall of Famer Dirk Nowitzki‘s shooting coach, Holger Geschwindner, was spotted, per Marc Stein.
Advertisement
Nowitzki ended his career following the 2018-19 season, which was Doncic’s rookie year. The two played together during that campaign on the Dallas Mavericks, and the two developed a friendship with each other.
Outside shooting is certainly an area in which the Lakers need to improve, but they may be better equipped in that category now than they were last season. The additions of Quentin Grimes, Collin Sexton, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Matisse Thybulle and perhaps Cameron Carr and Jaden Hardy will help Los Angeles space the floor better this coming season.
Advertisement
The hope also seems to be that Geschwindner will help Doncic with his own shooting. The superstar shot 36.6% from 3-point range last season, and he still seems to have plenty of room for improvement in terms of his shooting efficiency, even though he won his second scoring title with an average of 33.5 points a game.
In the mixed doubles competition, Britons Henry Patten and Lloyd Glasspool will both seek to beat some of the sport’s biggest stars after coming through two qualifying matches on Monday.
The US Open mixed doubles was controversially revamped last year to include singles stars in a bid to attract more attention to the format.
Under the new format, the top six pairs with the best combined singles rankings received direct entry into the main draw, with another eight receiving wildcards.
The tournament now takes place over three days in the week before the main draw began, and features a shorter scoring system with only four games required to win a set in matches before the final, no ‘advantage’ scoring and 10-point match tie-breaks instead of a third set throughout.
Advertisement
Both Patten and Glasspool had to come through qualifying with their respective partners on Monday.
Patten, a two-time winner of the men’s doubles competition at Wimbledon, and Czech team-mate Katerina Siniakova defeated Americans Peyton Stearns and Christian Harrison in straight sets in their second qualifying match.
Next, Patten and Siniakova – the respective men’s and women’s world number ones in doubles – will take on 24-time major winner Novak Djokovic and top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka in the first round of the main draw.
After defeating El Salvador’s Marcelo Arevalo and France’s Kristina Mladenovic, Glasspool and New Zealand’s Erin Routliffe will face 23-time Grand Slam singles champion Serena Williams and seven-time major winner Carlos Alcaraz.

Alcaraz will be playing his first match in four months after recovering from a wrist injury, while Williams is making her return to the sport after a four-year absence.
Colorado coach Deion Sanders is under subpoena to testify at a trial involving his son, Shilo. The case starts on Monday, August 31 — five days before Colorado’s first game of the 2026 season.
Deion disputes the notion that the situation will be a distraction.

“Do you think that’s my first subpoena?” Sanders told reporters on Monday, via the Associated Press. “When you have ‘it,’ when you’re ‘him,’ you get sued. You have off-the-field foolishness that if someone really sat down and explained it to you, you would say, ‘You’ve got to be kidding.’ But it is what it is.
Advertisement
“I don’t know anyone that’s a game-changer, a way-maker, that is not dealing with some type of lawsuit.”
He’s right, on one level. People with money become targets for litigation. But, at another level, he’s wrong; successful persons who don’t dance on the line of potential liability don’t get sued — unless the claim is truly frivolous.
Of course, Deion isn’t a defendant in the case for which he has been subpoenaed to testify. He is, however, facing a separate lawsuit regarding the development of his “Prime” logo.

Generally speaking, teams aren’t keen about moving on from a 26-year-old corner who boasts good size (6’2″ and 195 pounds), speed (4.46 forty), and a strong track record of NFL success.
What does Pittsburgh decide to do with Joey Porter Jr?
He’s moving into his fourth season and has a Vikings connection. DB Coach Gerald Alexander used to work for the Pittsburgh Steelers, coaching Porter in his time in the Steel City. Moreover, Brian Flores used to work in Pittsburgh; while he didn’t overlap with the defender, Flores will have a strong understanding of Pittsburgh’s process alongside plenty of connections inside their building.

Long-and-Strong CB with Vikings Connection Unhappy in PIT
Brooke Pryor is a Steelers writer who does her work for ESPN. She offered an article earlier in the day describing what’s taking place.
Some background: “Porter, who was placed on the PUP list after aggravating a back injury during the team’s mobility workout on the first day of training camp, is in line for an extension as he enters the final year of his contract. He was present for some OTAs and mandatory minicamp but didn’t participate in drills during the portions open to media. He has also been at training camp practices, often standing on the sideline with defensive back Jalen Ramsey, who was activated off the PUP list Monday.”
After relaying the thoughts from HC Mike McCarthy alongside teammates Jalen Ramsey and Patrick Queen, Pryor illuminates how Pittsburgh does business: “As an organization, the Steelers have long maintained that they don’t negotiate contracts once the regular season starts. Despite the impending deadline, a source told ESPN that there hasn’t been meaningful progress on extension talks. The Steelers also haven’t made or received any trade calls on Porter, the source added.”

The Steelers are a proud, principled organization that will stick to their guns. That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re shopping Porter (something Pryor addresses). That doesn’t necessarily mean they won’t listen if a call(s) gets made.
Right now, the Vikings boast Bryon Murphy Jr., Isaiah Rodgers, James Pierre, and Chuck Demmings as the lead corners. Next year, Rodgers will get to free agency if there’s no new deal. Murphy seems likely to be kept around due to his March restructure, a decision that makes the dead cap charge next year prohibitive with a cut.
Moving forward, then, appears to be a situation where Mr. Murphy will be in the Twin Cities for a minimum of 2026 and 2027. Ideally, Demmings develops into a strong outside corner who can someday be a CB3. Think the role that Akayleb Evans was drafted to fill before falling short.
Otherwise, Pierre is somewhat of a mystery. He played well last season but is older, sitting at 29 going into the season. Do his legs and lungs allow him to keep playing high-level football for much longer?

Trading for Joey Porter would be about improving now and in the future.
Of course, there’s the issue of cost (something being discussed in Twitter debates). Presumably, needing to hand over a lucrative deal on the back end of a trade lowers the compensation for trading for him. Is there a sweet spot where both sides are sufficiently uncomfortable yet enticed to pull off a swap?

Already, the Vikings have brought a different Steelers corner to town when they signed Pierre back in March. He has looked good in his role as the CB3 who can help on specials.
Cole Palmer stole the show as Xabi Alonso began his reign as Chelsea manager with a thrilling 4-2 Premier League win over neighbours Fulham at Craven Cottage.
Palmer was at the heart of Chelsea’s attacking play, setting up Joao Pedro for the opening goal after just 31 seconds before scoring the winner himself with a calm finish through Bernd Leno’s legs.
The 24-year-old looked almost unstoppable at times and gave Alonso an early glimpse of the attacking quality available to him.

Chelsea’s record summer signing Morgan Rogers also marked his Premier League debut for the club with a goal. He finished from a cutback by another debutant, Maxence Lacroix, to put Chelsea ahead again.
However, Fulham refused to make Alonso’s first league match in English football an easy one.
Teenage midfielder Josh King impressed throughout the game and brought Fulham level in the first half with a powerful shot that beat Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez at his near post.
Advertisement
Chelsea regained control through Palmer before Fulham reduced the deficit again when Gonzalo Garcia headed home from close range.
Garcia, who joined Fulham from Real Madrid during the summer, showed good movement and sharp finishing to score on his Premier League debut.
But Chelsea held on in an entertaining and open game to give Alonso a winning start and secure their first victory in the opening league match of a season since 2022-23.
## Palmer gives Alonso plenty to smile about
Advertisement
Chelsea’s attacking trio of Joao Pedro, Palmer and Rogers showed early signs of being a major threat this season.
Palmer, who had a difficult previous campaign because of fatigue and injuries, quickly reminded everyone of his ability to decide big matches.
His clever flick helped create Chelsea’s opening goal, while his second-half finish showed his calmness in front of goal.
There were also positive signs that Alonso’s tactical ideas are already having an effect, with Chelsea players making several smart positional changes during attacks.
Advertisement
However, Chelsea still showed weaknesses at the back.
Levi Colwill was booked after a lapse in concentration and later risked further trouble with a foul on King while already on a yellow card.
Sanchez also struggled. The goalkeeper made two poor distribution errors early in the match before being beaten at his near post by King’s equaliser.
Chelsea will need to improve defensively if they are to challenge for the biggest trophies, but their attacking quality proved enough to secure all three points.
Advertisement
## King and Garcia give Fulham hope
Despite the defeat, Fulham had plenty of positives to take from the match.
King, still only 19, was one of their best players and looked confident against Chelsea’s midfield. The England Under-21 international drove Fulham forward and nearly found a late equaliser when he dragged an effort wide.
Garcia also made an impressive start to life in England. The former Real Madrid player showed good movement and finishing ability to score his first goal for Fulham.
Advertisement
He became the first player to score on his Premier League debut for Fulham since Chris David against Crystal Palace in May 2014.
Fulham will be disappointed to lose the London derby, but Alonso will be the happier manager after Chelsea’s attacking stars produced enough quality to begin the new era with victory.
South Korean police have concluded their investigation into HYBE Chairman Bang Si-hyuk over allegations of fraudulent trading, according to a report by News1. The case is linked to the company’s initial public offering.
Seoul Metropolitan Police Commissioner Park Jung-bo said during a regular press briefing on August 24, 2026, that he had been informed the investigation related to Bang had been completed and that the necessary procedures to wrap it up were underway. When asked whether police would seek an arrest warrant for Bang again, Park said an announcement was expected soon.
The investigation centered on allegations that Bang misled early HYBE investors before the company’s 2020 IPO. At the time, HYBE was operating as Big Hit Entertainment. Investigators alleged that in 2019, Bang Si-hyuk told some investors there were no immediate plans for a public listing, or that an IPO would be delayed. Some shareholders subsequently sold their stakes to a private equity fund reportedly connected to people close to Bang.
Advertisement
HYBE later proceeded with its IPO, and investigators alleged that Bang received a share of the profits generated from the sale of those stakes. Police estimated his alleged illicit gains at roughly 190 billion to 260 billion won, with different reports citing different calculations.
Bang denied the allegations, maintaining that his actions were lawful and complied with the regulations in place at the time. Police previously sought an arrest warrant for Bang Si-hyuk twice in April, but prosecutors rejected both requests and called for additional investigation.
The latest announcement indicates that police have now completed the investigative work and are preparing to close the case, with the question of any renewed warrant request expected to be addressed soon.

Inside the long-running investigation into Bang Si-hyuk’s HYBE IPO dealings
The investigation into Bang Si-hyuk’s alleged IPO-related misconduct has remained under scrutiny by both police and prosecutors since the probe began in late 2024. The case drew additional attention after the Securities and Futures Commission, under South Korea’s Financial Services Commission, filed a complaint concerning the alleged transactions.
At the center of the investigation is an alleged agreement involving a private equity fund. Authorities are examining whether the fund sold its HYBE shares following the company’s 2020 listing.
Additionally, they are also investigating a subsequent transfer of around 30% of the resulting profits to Bang Si-hyuk under an agreement that has not previously been disclosed. Investigators have estimated the amount involved at approximately 190 billion won, or around $129 million.
The allegations are being examined under South Korea’s Capital Markets Act. The law prohibits misleading statements and deceptive practices in financial transactions, including transactions involving shares of companies that have not yet been publicly listed.
Advertisement
The investigation lasted for more than a year and involved repeated questioning of Bang Si-hyuk. Authorities reportedly questioned him five times beginning in September 2025. His first reported session took place on September 15 and lasted for more than 14 hours. He was questioned again on September 22, followed by additional sessions on November 5, 7 and 9. No further summons involving Bang were reported after late 2025.
Investigators also conducted search and seizure operations at several locations as part of the probe. These included HYBE’s headquarters and the Korea Exchange, where authorities sought materials relevant to the alleged transactions.
Bang has remained under a travel restriction since August 2025. The restriction later became a point of attention when the U.S. Embassy in South Korea reportedly asked the Korean National Police Agency on April 19, 2026, to cooperate in allowing Bang Si-hyuk to travel to the United States for BTS’s ongoing world tour.
The case has also had an impact on HYBE’s stock performance. Following reports that authorities had sought an arrest warrant for Bang, HYBE shares reversed earlier gains and fell 2.9%, while the broader KOSPI was up 1.8% over the same period.

The potential legal consequences could be substantial if investigators ultimately establish violations of the Capital Markets Act. For cases involving unlawful gains of more than 5 billion won, the law can provide for a minimum prison sentence of five years, with life imprisonment possible in more serious circumstances.
Financial penalties could also be significant. Authorities may impose fines equivalent to three to five times the amount of the unlawful gains. With the total amount potentially under review reaching as much as 400 billion won, the possible financial liability could therefore be considerable.
After David Benavidez’s stellar debut in the cruiserweight ranks this year, some in the sport started to believe that he could handle a heavyweight move immediately.
Though he can still make 175 and may intend to drop back down in the future, Benavidez was quickly linked to some intriguing heavyweight fights.
Advertisement
Speaking to Luis Parra, he was asked directly about challenging Oleksandr Usyk, widely regarded as the best in the division, after boxing powerbroker Turki Alalshikh publicly expressed his desire to see it.
“[Alalshikh] didn’t talk to me directly, [but] he was talking to the people around me and said he wanted to make that fight. But honestly, I have a lot of respect for Usyk, and I’m not ready for that right now. If he came down to cruiserweight, then yeah, we could fight at cruiserweight. But I’m not moving up.”
Despite that sentiment, it has been revealed this week by Ricardo Celis that Jose Benavidez Sr, father and trainer of David, contacted Alalshikh directly trying to make the fight against the great Ukrainian.
🚨 USYK vs DAVID BENAVIDEZ IN PLAY FOR CINCO DE MAYO 2027?

Given that the 39-year-old pound-for-pound star wants Wilder’s name on his resume since the American was part of his generation of heavyweights, it seems unlikely that he is going to be the man to welcome Benavidez to the heavyweight ranks.
Instead, Benavidez is expected to face Michal Cieslak this December, perhaps for a vacant WBC belt, before pursuing Opetaia.
While much of the talk surrounding the Steelers has been backup quarterbacks Will Howard and Drew Allar, the focus on Monday shifted to another player who has been notably absent this summer.
Joey Porter Jr. has been present during Steelers’ practices, but the veteran cornerback has yet to practice as he is hoping to land a new contract. Coach Mike McCarthy said that the team is at an “impasse” with Porter, who is also on the team’s physically unbale to perform list after aggravating his back during the team’s mobility test on the first day of training camp.
Along with Porter, fellow defensive back Jalen Ramsey also missed training camp as he was dealing with a knee injury. Ramsey, who was taken off the team’s PUP list on Monday, feels that it’s time something got done with regard to Porter’s contract. The Steelers’ unofficial deadline to get something done with Porter is September 13, when they host the Falcons in Week 1.
“We need the whole secondary out there,” Ramsey said, via ESPN. “They got to pay Joey Porter, and we need got some other guys that are out as well. So, the secondary has not been out there together yet, so I can’t answer that for you.”
Advertisement
At this point, it’s more likely that Porter remains in Pittsburgh through 2026. But if that were to change, here’s a look at some of the possible landing spots for Porter.
Dallas Cowboys
Dallas makes sense on several fronts, starting with the fact that Porter would complement what the Cowboys already have in the secondary. Porter could serve as a mentor of sorts for first-round pick Caleb Downs.
Speaking of Jones, the Cowboys’ 83-year-old owner is desperate to end Dallas’ championship drought, which is now at 31 years. That, coupled with the fact that Jones loves making splashy trades, makes this scenario even more logical.

Chicago Bears
Chicago’s pass defense was one of its biggest weaknesses in 2025, and based on how it currently looks, that may well be the case for 2026 unless the Bears do something soon. The Bears spent a high draft pick on safety Dillon Thieneman, but he alone won’t help make up for the current injuries the unit is dealing with. Starting safety Coby Bryant (knee) and starting nickelback Kyler Gordon (calf) are currently dealing with injuries.
It goes without saying that Porter’s arrival in Chicago would strengthen the team’s Super Bowl aspirations. Adding to the likelihood of this scenario is that Khan and Bears GM Ryan Poles have a history of making notable transactions.
Carolina Panthers
The Steelers could trade Porter to a team that also has an interesting situation with one of their cornerbacks. Veteran cornerback Mike Jackson is entering the final year of a two-year, $10.5 million deal. Jackson outperformed his contract last season and is likely looking for a better deal for 2026 and beyond.
In this scenario, it’s possible that the two teams could swap cornerbacks. The Steelers would be getting an adequate and cheaper replacement for Porter, while the Panthers would have one of the league’s best cornerback duos in Porter and Jaycee Horn, who, like Porter, is the son of a notable former NFL player.
Advertisement
Pittsburgh would also be getting something else (likely a draft pick) in this scenario, given Porter’s stature as one of the league’s top young cornerbacks.
New York Giants
The Giants‘ have heightened expectations this season that are likely buoyed by John Harbaugh’s offseason arrival. But if New York really wants to have realistic hopes of competing in 2026, they need to strengthen a few areas of their team, which includes the secondary.
Porter’s addition would be a big boost for the Giants, who play in a division that includes opposing quarterbacks Jalen Hurts, Dak Prescott, and Jayden Daniels. Harbaugh, who coached against Porter the previous three seasons, knows firsthand how disruptive Porter can be for an opposing offense.
Like the Panthers and Giants, the Saints are another NFC team that is looking to take the next step in 2026. After a slow start, the Saints enjoyed a strong finish to the 2025 season, including four straight wins under new coach Kelln Moore.
The Saints could use a player of Porter’s caliber in their secondary to increase their odds of winning what is the NFL’s most wide-open division. With that in mind, it’s possible that Saints veteran GM Mickey Loomis could work something out with Khan — a New Orleans native whose first NFL job was with the Saints — if he feels that Porter can help the Saints snap their five-year playoff drought.
Green Bay Packers
Yet another NFC team with high expectations that is looking to separate itself from the pack (pun intended). The Packers showed last year that they are willing to swing big when they traded for Parsons. It’s worth wondering whether Green Bay is considering a similar move now to add another notable player to its defense.
Like the Steelers, the Packers are a franchise that measures itself only by championships. After falling short in the playoffs once again in 2025, the Packers are desperate to make a serious playoff push in 2026. That’s why the Packers should be considered as a legitimate landing spot if Porter ends up on the trading block.
The exact number of runners Ciaron Maher will deploy in this Saturday’s $200,000 H D F McNeil Stakes is not yet confirmed, however, one colt who is a definite starter is Seraphox.
This Harry Angel colt is slated to commence a racing campaign that has been meticulously planned with the $3 million Group 1 Caulfield Guineas in October as its primary target, with the 1200-metre Group 3 event at Caulfield serving as the initial step.
Maher’s stablemate Unit Five, a scratching from Sandown last Saturday, is expected to be a rival. Additionally, Maher has entered Tornado Valley and Milsons Point, both of whom competed over 1400m at Sandown last Saturday, though their final decisions are pending.
Jack Turnbull, the assistant trainer for Maher, confirmed Seraphox’s participation, identifying the McNeil Stakes as the perfect launching pad for his pursuit of the 1600m Caulfield Guineas on October 10.

“We see him as a 1400-metre horse, miler and he’s on a Guineas path,” Turnbull stated.
“He’s forward and ready to run a bit of a race, but I’d say he’ll be midfield and running on.”
“He’ll be competitive but he’s probably not going to be as sharp as some of the others in that race.”
Alongside his Maher stablemates, Seraphox’s potential competitors include the Group 1 winning Kiwi galloper Seize The Day, the promising colt American Eagle, Todman Stakes placegetter Wolf Gap, Sydney colt Confederation, and Anzac Day Stakes winner Blind Raise.
Advertisement
Seraphox’s record includes a third place in the Listed Anzac Day Stakes, his first outing in Victoria after a Warwick Farm maiden victory. This followed a debut seventh in the Group 2 Todman Stakes, reflecting the high opinion Maher’s stable has always held of Seraphox.
Turnbull nominated Seraphox and Tornado Valley as the stable’s top two contenders for the Guineas heading into the spring. Magic Millions winner Unit Five is set for the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m) on Derby Day.
Although the son of Supido will face a tougher field at Caulfield than he might have under the 59.5kg weight on Saturday’s Heavy track over 1000m, Turnbull noted that a number of factors made the Caulfield race a more appealing choice.
“How the track was, the way it’s been playing, the weight and having the option of the McNeil,” Turnbull explained as reasons for the strategic decision.

“He had a fair while off after that Magics prep and he’s come back really well, so we’re looking forward to getting back to the races.”
