RAW PREVIEW

- WWE Raw tonight will be airing on SyFy instead of USA Network due to the Olympics coverage. The show will still be a three-hour broadcast, just on a different channel for the next two weeks. Headlining the broadcast tonight is a segment where SummerSlam special guest referee Seth Rollins will lay down his referee instructions to both CM Punk and Drew McIntyre. Matches announced for the show so far include Sheamus vs Bronson Reed, Xavier Woods vs Karrion Kross, Gunther vs Finn Balor, and a six-woman tag team match featuring Kayden Carter, Katana Chance, and Lyra Valkyria vs Shayna Baszler, Zoey Stark, and Sonya Deville.

NXT LEVEL UP PERFORMERS TO APPEAR FOR BOOKER T'S ROW

- Booker T's promotion Reality of Wrestling announced that talent appearing on NXT Level Up will be able to appear on their Breakout non-televised events moving forward. Breakout shows are ROW's non-televised live events which are free for the public and offer trainees at the school an opportunity to perform in front of a live audience and against wrestlers from the ROW roster. Level Up features talent from the WWE Performance Center which are not quite ready for NXT but are given the chance to work in front of an audience and eventually on TV when it airs on Peacock. All NXT Level Up shows are taped before NXT goes on the air on USA Network and then they are uploaded every Friday night for viewing on Peacock and WWE Network. Some NXT talent have already appeared for Reality of Wrestling TV but this is a wider agreement that will enable those WWE PC trainees to wrestle in front of a crowd, no matter how small it is.

JOHN CENA ON SEASON PREMIERE OF THE SIMPSONS

- During a panel at the San Diego Comic-Con, The Simpsons creator Matt Groening and showrunner Matt Selman announced that 16-time world champion John Cena will be in the premiere episode of The Simpsons' 36th season. Currently set to premiere on Sunday, September 8, the first is titled Bart's Birthday and will also have appearances by Tom Hanks, Danny DeVito, and Conan O'Brien. There has only been one other wrestling star to appear on The Simpsons before and that is former WWE champion himself Bret "Hit Man" Hart. Hart was in an episode which aired some Tim in April 1997.

MVP MAKES SURPRISE APPEARANCE AT BLOODSPORT XI

- MVP made a surprise appearance at Bloodsport XI last night and confronted Josh Barnett following his match against Bad Dude Tito. MVP mentioned that he has a contract coming up and he's not re-signing and recently achieved a black belt in jiu-jitsu and wants to do a few things before retiring, issuing a challenge to Barnett in the process. Barnett accepted the challenge and invited MVP to come anytime, either alone, or with his friends.

MVP was last seen on WWE television accompanying Omos in April on Smackdown on the eve of WrestleMania. You can see his Bloodsport appearance at .

FOUR WWE STARS WRESTLE AT BLOODSPORT XI

- Four WWE stars - Shayna Baszler, Charlie Dempsey, and Brutus and Julius Creed of The Creed Brothers - all participated in Josh Barnett's Bloodsport XI event held yesterday in Brooklyn, New York. The Creed Brothers made their Bloodsport debut last night and it was a good night for the two. Julius wrestled Matt Makowski and came out victorious in the match via a TKO. His brother Brutus wrestled "Filthy" Tom Lawlor later in the card and also had the same result of his brother, defeating Lawlor via TKO. NXT star Charlie Dempsey, the son of William Regal, participated in his second Bloodsport event, wrestling Royce Isaacs. Unfortunately for Dempsey, last night was not his night and Isaacs won via submission. And former NXT Women's champion Shayna Baszler headlined this card in a match against Miyu Yamashita. This was also Baszler's second time in Bloodsport after making her debut for the promotion during WrestleMania weekend in April. Baszler defeated her opponent via TKO.

THE ROCK'S MOVIE THE SMASHING MACHINE WRAPS UP FILMING

- Dwayne Johnson's latest movie, The Smashing Machine, wrapped up filming in Vancouver last week according to a story by Hollywood North Buzz. Additional principal photography also took place in Los Angeles, New Mexico, and Tokyo. In The Smashing Machine, The Rock portrays legendary MMA fighter Mark Kerr and chronicles the ups and downs of his career. Joining him in this movie are Emily Blunt, Lyndsey Gavin, Oleksandr Usyk, Bas Rutten, Ryan Bader, Satoshi Ishii, Yoko Hamamura, Paul Cheng, Cyborg Abreu, and Zoe Kosovic. Johnson underwent an intensive MMA camp following his WrestleMania match to get ready for this movie. With the flick in post-production, it's unclear if this will clear the way for The Rock to return to WWE television The movie is set to be released sometime in 2025 from A24.

GIULIA TO MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT TOMORROW

- Japanese star Giulia will be making an announcement during the Marigold show tomorrow at the Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan. Giulia wrote on X that she wants to make the announcement herself in front of fans coming directly from her, but offered no hints. The announcement is wildly believed to be her departure from Japan to start her journey with WWE full time in the United States. Giulia is expected to be part of NXT for a few months before she joins the main roster. The former champion will be also wrestling on the show, teaming up with Sareee to take on Kizuna Tanaka and Victoria Yuzuki.

SAMMY GUEVARA RETURNS...ON ROH!

- Sammy Guevera made his return last night during the Ring of Honor television tapings, his first appearance since February. Guevara was not injured but was suspended by AEW after his match against Jeff Hardy where he continued with the match despite Hardy being knocked out. While the referee and the ringside physician didn't get any flack for not stopping the match as per protocol, Guevara got the full brunt of the consequences when he hit his finishing move after Hardy got knocked out when Guevara hit a shooting star press and landed on his face with his knee. It's believed that the suspension lasted around two months but there was nothing creatively for him when his suspension was up.

ANNA JAY HEADING TO JAPAN

- Anna Jay will be participating in the upcoming Stardom 5Star Grand Prix, a 28-women round-robin tournament starting in two weeks. The tournament kicks off on August 10 and will end on August 31. The 28 women are split in four blocks of seven, with Jay listed in the Blue Stars A Block. Her involvement means that she will be off AEW television for the rest of the month as she moves to Japan. The 2023 edition of the tournament was won by Suzu Suzuki.
