In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

On Tuesday afternoon, insider X account @WrestleVotes reported that WWE planned to move their Orlando-based Performance Center to Las Vegas. Obviously, this shocked fans, considering that the Performance Center has been in Florida for over a decade. However, Fightful Select has now shot down this story, claiming this announcement hasn’t been made, and their sources at the Performance Center were never informed. When it was first reported, it did seem plausible that TKO would want to combine the WWE Performance Center and the UFC Performance Institute in Nevada for cost-saving reasons. Yet, it looks like @WrestleVotes has been fed false information, although it should be noted that they stand by their initial report as of writing.

Don’t expect Ronda Rousey to ever return to the UFC. The Olympic judo bronze medalist and first ever UFC women’s bantamweight champion cut a swathe of destruction through the division when she arrived in the promotion, defending her title six times before losing via head kick knockout to Holly Holm in 2015. A quick stoppage loss to Amanda Nunes in 2016 ended her MMA career, and she moved on to performing with WWE from 2017 to 2023.

Conor McGregor is posting cryptic things on his social media account again, suggesting that perhaps there’s a rift growing between him and the UFC. This tends to happen whenever the UFC slow-plays McGregor’s return back into the cage, which they’ve been doing a lot lately. McGregor didn’t fight through the pandemic because the gate he draws is too much for the UFC to sacrifice. The promotion decided not to apply for a USADA exemption to allow Mac to fight in 2023, even though his injury certainly met the standards for ‘exceptional circumstances.’ They left him unbooked til halfway through 2024, and they may not rebook him til 2025.

The consequences of Islam Makhachev’s hand injury are far-reaching. The Lightweight kingpin was expected to defend his strap at UFC 308 on October 26 in Abu Dhabi opposite surging contender Arman Tsarukyan, but his injury delayed that contest and left the card without a main event. Instead, Ilia Topuria vs. Max Holloway was shipped from UFC 307 to Abu Dhabi, leaving an opening for Alex Pereira to save the day (again) in the now-vacant UFC 307 headliner.
