WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar has been off of television for some time, and a recent rumor indicated that he could be returning soon.
Fans started speculating when they believed that Lesnar’s profile had been added ‘back’ to the active section on WWE.com, although this was not the case.
As reported by Fightful Select: “For those asking, Brock Lesnar was never removed from the online WWE roster page, much less added back.”
Although Lesnar was not named outright in the January lawsuit that was filed against Vince McMahon, John Laurinaitis, and WWE, an unnamed former UFC Champion and WWE Superstar was referenced on multiple occasions in the suit from former employee Janel Grant. Lesnar would later be named by the Wall Street Journal.
The fallout of this was massive, and WWE reportedly had to scramble to change plans for WrestleMania without Lesnar’s involvement.
Initially, it was believed that Lesnar would be facing GUNTHER for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania XL, but due to the implications of the upcoming lawsuit, he was removed from WWE programming and there is no official timeframe for his return.

WWE is reportedly considering a big change to their Premium Live Events going forward, with the start time of major shows potentially changing.
According to a new report from Mike Johnson of PWInsider, the company are looking at starting shows earlier going forward, with both nights of WrestleMania XL slated for a 7 PM Eastern start time.
“In speaking to multiple sources, PWInsiderElite.com is told that WWE is looking into potentially moving domestic PPVs to that earlier start time (which it utilized many years ago) but no final determination has been made as of this juncture. It is an experiment in process currently” the site revealed.
Whether the company does decide to move to an earlier start permanently remains to be seen, as this is likely more a move to appease fans in territories like Europe, where the start time for major events is usually around 1 am GMT/BST.
As noted, this is a start time that the company has used in the past, and it would mean that fans in the UK/Europe would be able to watch the action from around 11 pm GMT/BST on the Saturday night rather than from early the next morning.

When entering Main Street Pizza and Sandwiches, three things are impossible to ignore. First is the overwhelming smell of hot, rancid grease. Second is the layer of dirt and grime that covers every visible surface in the establishment. Third is that they got Cruis’n USA, baby!
Main Street has survived all these years not on the strength of its menu, but by its world class entertainment: a single cabinet of the greatest driving simulator ever created near the bathrooms (which seem rarely cleaned and should be avoided, if possible).
This isn’t like the version of Cruis’n USA you have at home. This is real driving, like your dad does in his truck. There’s a wheel and pedals and that stick thing and everything. The only thing missing is the wind in your hair, not that you’ll be thinking about that while you’re playing. Win a race, and you’ll get to see something that’ll blow you away better than any breeze — a hot babe in a bikini. This is the kind of game mom would never let you play at home.
Even if you don’t manage to win, there’s plenty of fun to be had. You know how if you hit a cow in Mario Kart, you just get knocked over? Well, try hitting a cow in Cruis’n USA. Sure, it’ll still slow you down, but you’ll blow that critter into chunks of meat that come flying at the screen, looking not dissimilar to Main Street’s “sausage” topping. It’s always a crowd-pleaser, so the rest of your team will think you’re a legend for doing it, even if you finish last in the race. Even my dad got into the spirit. One level had a tunnel lined with dollar bills that had a lady smoking a cigar on them, and he couldn’t stop laughing. He never likes video games, so that should tell you how special this one is.
If you can stomach the nearly indigestible cheese and underbaked crust, Main Street Pizza and Sandwiches is a must visit. Few other restaurants are worth mentioning in the same breath. Their only true rival — locally, at least — is the Hawaiian-themed place at the mall that has the sit-down Jurassic Park arcade game.
The Finals Season 2 update is here! Let’s see if the hyped additions to weapons and gadgets are all they’re claimed to be.
Welcome to a whole new season of the game, contestants!Much has changed in and out of the arena, and you can expect lots more as the Season progresses. Please find all these new things and changes that’s coming in Season 2 RIGHT HERE!

The Finals Season 2 Mar 14 Update NEW WEAPONS
FAMAS - Burst Rifle - Medium

KS-23 - Slug Shotgun - Heavy
The Finals Season 2 Mar 14 Update BALANCE CHANGES
Throwables, Explosives & “Nukes”
Added diminishing returns on damage from ‘nukes’ i.e. throwable objects that carry C4s, Breach Charges, or mines
For each source of explosive damage, including the throwable and starting with the highest, a damage modifier is applied to each instance in the sequence of 60% / 40% / 30% / 20%
Gas Canisters now immediately start to steer off their direct trajectory (aka “wobble”) when they have attachments
When picking up throwable objects with explosive gadgets attached (i.e. ‘nukes’ and ‘snukes’), said explosives will become un-armed
When the player lets go of the carried object, a re-arming timer for the explosives starts
The explosions from C4, Breaching Charges, and all mines that detonate while unprimed now deal 20% of their original damage
Decreased the health value of Propane Gas Tanks from 250 to 120
Fixed a bug with Fuel Barrels where they sometimes wouldn’t ignite when taking damage, for example from explosions or bullets
Dev Comment: Nukes were a hot-button issue in Season 1. The previous tuning made nukes exceed the intended time to kill by a large margin. Since our initial changes weren’t substantial enough to alter this tactic, we’ve added more ways to balance nukes moving forward.
Toxic Gas
Added a delay to the application of damage. Damage will now start to tick 0.5s after the player enters the gas cloud
Added new functionality that causes damage to ramp up gradually over time, from 30hp/s to 60 hp/s over 2s.
Increased damage tick interval from 0.1s per tick to 0.3s per tick
Dev Comment: We’ve always intended for Toxic Gas to act as an area denial tool. However, because of its immediate high damage and quick dispersal, it has been too potent. We’ve made changes to make Toxic Gas better fit the original intention.
Gadgets
C4
Decreased ammo count from 2 to 1
Decreased cooldown from 45s to 30s
Decreased minimum damage at the edge of the explosion from 93 to 75

Increased starting health from a defibrillator revive from 40% to 50%
Dome Shield
Decreased maximum duration from 20s to 12s
Jump Pad
Increased cooldown from 25s to 30s
Motion Sensor
Moved from the Light archetype to the Heavy
RPG
Fixed an issue that made dispersion almost identical regardless of what state the player was in
Increased projectile dispersion in all non-aiming states
Reduced projectile dispersion when aiming down sights
Increased zoom-in time from 0.2s to 0.4s
Increased equip time from 0.45s to 0.5s
Increased unequip time from 0.35s to 0.4s
Sonar Grenade
Moved from the Medium archetype to the Light
Tracking dart
Moved from the Medium archetype to the Light
Decreased dispersion in most movement states by 50%
Increased accuracy by decreasing dart dispersion while aiming down sights from 30% to 10%

Increased total cloaked duration on teammates from 6s to 7.5s
Increased total cloaked duration on the user from 5s to 6s
Specializations
Recon Senses
Removed for assessment
Dev Note: we’ve concluded that Recon Senses have been detrimental to the game at large, and have decided to put it out of play for now. The specialization may return in some new form down the line, but only after a major rework.
Mesh Shield
Increased cooldown on a fully depleted shield from 12s to 15s
Increased starting health after full depletion from 200 to 250
Weapons

R .357
Increased damage falloff modifier at max range from 33% to 45%
Throwing Knives
Increased projectile speed from 120m/s to 138m/s

The Finals Season 2 Mar 14 Update GAMEPLAY
Added an option for auto-sprint in the gameplay section in settings
Dev comment: You can turn on auto-sprint in the settings menu and select the time it takes for your contestant to begin sprinting. THE FINALS has a unique “omnidirectional sprinting system,” which means characters can sprint in all directions instead of the more common forward-only sprint. As such, we’d love to get your feedback on auto-sprint, and what additional settings would help you better customize your sprinting experience!

Counter-Strike 2 gets a new update in time for the PGL Copenhagen 2024 Major. Along with the Major’s Hub, there’s a new Viewer Pass of course.
As fixes go, the only thing mentioned is a tweak to the flames of the Molotov which would previously obscure the vision of a player, but not that of their adversary.
The Copenhagen Major Hub is now available. Visit the hub to purchase tournament items, play the Pick’Em Challenge and more.
Purchase a Copenhagen 2024 Viewer Pass to receive an upgradable Copenhagen 2024 Coin. With an active pass, you can upgrade your coin and earn extra souvenir packages by playing the Pick’Em Challenge. Additionally, you will show up on the Active Pass Leaderboard where you can compare your Pick’Em Challenge performance to your friends.
All players with Prime status can place Pick’Em picks for free! However, to complete challenges and earn rewards from an event stage, you will have to activate a Viewer Pass before that stage begins.
[GAMEPLAY]
Adjusted molotov fire to address a case where a player who could see through fire could not be seen by their opponent.
