INDIANA JONES' Whip Goes Up For Auction and Could Fetch $500,000, But it Belongs in a Museum — GeekTyrant
Cue the John Williams fanfare and put on your fedora, Indiana Jones' iconic bullwhip from Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade is hitting the auction block. And if you've got $500,000 just lying around, you might just be able to take it home.
The whip is up for grabs through Propstore this September and it comes with the full rig, which includes holster, belt, and all. It was used by Harrison Ford in the 1989 Spielberg adventure film.
The whip is an eight-foot beast crafted by David Morgan, 'the master whipmaker who supplied all the original whips for the classic Indiana Jones trilogy,' according to the auction house's press release.
This particular set is the only known whip/holster/belt combo from the film in private hands, previously owned by an anonymous 'production source' who worked on The Last Crusade . It's never been up for sale before, and considering the provenance, it's unlikely to surface again anytime soon.
The whip also carries some production tags linking it to the famous 'Rideaway Scene,' as well as a 'production-used call sheet' tied to the thrilling motorcycle chase filmed in Marin County, California. But that's not all—there's reason to believe it was used earlier in production during shoots in the UK and Spain as well.
According to Propstore: 'The whip and holster remain secured by metal wire ties added by the props team to hold the set together. The whip also bears dark markings from previous bindings, consistent with how it was worn coiled on Indy's belt during filming.'
Estimated to fetch between $250,000 and $500,000, this isn't exactly an impulse buy. But for the right collector, this is the kind of thing you don't stash on a shelf, you build an alter for it.
Now, if you don't have that kind of money, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is swinging back onto the big screen for Father's Day weekend, courtesy of Fathom Events. Catch it June 14-15 and 18 in select theaters nationwide.

Dominik Mysterio adds shocking new match to WWE Money in the Bank at Worlds Collide
The post Dominik Mysterio adds shocking new match to WWE Money in the Bank at Worlds Collide appeared first on ClutchPoints. When WWE, NXT, and Lucha Libre AAA came together at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, for a unique relaunch of the old Worlds Collide concept, fans knew they were in for a treat. Advertisement With the venue loaded up with fans of both promotions, AAA wrestlers like El Hijo de Vikingo, El Hijo de Doctor Wagner Jr., and beyond were afforded a chance to shine in front of a new crowd, with Octogon Jr. looking particularly good in the opening contest. This, for some reason, didn't rub Dominik Mysterio the right way, with the ringside Superstar requesting a microphone to call out the luchador for his clear Rey Mysterio fandom. 'Cut the music! I see that you happen to be a big Rey Mysterio fan. But you seem to forget that he's a deadbeat. And I am your champion,' Mysterios declared. 'Al igual que tú, eres fan de Rey Mysterio. También eres un pedazo de basura como él. ¿Qué demonios me vas a hacer? Recuerda, soy el campeón. No puedes tocarme. Y no estás a mi nivel.' After throwing down in the ring, with Liv Morgan coming in to help out her partner in crime, Mysterio had one more bold declaration, setting up what might be the most interesting development of the day. Advertisement 'Hey, I'll see you at Money in the Bank,' Mysterio announced. 'I'll make sure I put this on the line. So I'll see you tonight.' Whoa, a AAA wrestler grappling with the Intercontinental Champion on a major WWE PLE mere hours after working trios bout? Either this is a genius idea to make a new star and get more eyes on TripleMania XXXIII, or WWE needs to fill out a few more minutes on the show for one reason or another. Either way, it's the kind of chaos WWE doesn't usually bring to the table, so the results should be interesting to say the least.

Even MLB was surprised to see R-Truth return at WWE Money in the Bank
The post Even MLB was surprised to see R-Truth return at WWE Money in the Bank appeared first on ClutchPoints. Saturday was a massive day for WWE, as the promotion hosted two shows live from Los Angeles. Worlds Collide featured talent from NXT, the main roster and AAA, the Mexican promotion recently purchased by TKO. Following that excellent show, Money in the Bank was tasked with setting up two of the next top contenders to WWE's top titles. During the main event tag team match featuring John Cena, Logan Paul, Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes, Cena was attacked by someone from the crowd. Once the WWE champion was down, the attacker revealed themselves to be none other than R-Truth, a reveal that shocked the world. Even MLB acknowledged it on their X, formerly Twitter, account. 'Seeing R-Truth return out of nowhere at Money in the Bank,' posted MLB's official account on the social media platform. Advertisement The shocking return comes just days after R-Truth announced he would be leaving the promotion once his contract expired in the near future. However, now it seems that he might be here to stay. Will he be a part of Cena's redemption story? What turn of events led to him actually staying with WWE? MLB's reaction is one shared by millions of fans worldwide. What happens next is anyone's guess. Will R-Truth pursue John Cena's WWE title after Money in the Bank attack? Mandatory Credit: Joe Camporeale-Imagn Images Two weeks ago, at Saturday Night's Main Event, Cena defeated Truth in a non-title match. Now, he's seemingly back for more. After all, he picked up the title and looked at it before leaving the ring. After laying Cena out, Rhodes was able to cover him and get the three-count and win. Now, he could also lay claim to a title shot against Cena. Advertisement With the Night of Champions premium live event fast approaching, Cena will almost certainly defend his title on the show. WWE announced that Cena will be in Saudi Arabia at the end of June. The main question is this: will he actually put his title on the line against Truth in a rematch? Can Cody also ask for a shot, or would he cede to Truth? One thing is for sure: the ending of Money in the Bank has certainly made the next episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix another one to watch.

We Finally Know When ‘Hollow Knight: Silksong' Is Coming Out, Sort Of
Hollow Knight: Silksong During today's big Xbox Showcase, the Xbox maker revealed a bunch of exciting upcoming video game releases: Double Fine's new adventure title, Keeper; new DLC for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle; Ninja Gaiden 4, a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 demo you can play right now; a Persona 4 remake; the Black Ops 7 reveal trailer; a new Xbox handheld console and much more. It was during the Xbox handheld console segment that fans of Hollow Knight got a piece of welcome news. The long-awaited, highly-anticipated follow-up to the game, Silksong, is finally coming out. While we don't have an exact release date yet, we do know that it's launching alongside the ROG Xbox Ally handheld system this year during the 2025 holiday season. Xbox president Sarah Bond said the game will be available to play "at launch and in Game Pass when the Ally releases later this year.' You can see the game on the new Xbox handheld in the trailer below: Silksong was announced way, way, way back in February, 2019. Team Cherry has been teasing players ever since. Hollow Knight is one of the best Metroidvanias ever made, and the wait for its sequel has been grueling – though perhaps less grueling than Grand Theft Auto VI, The Winds Of Winter or the mythical beast known only as Half-Life 3. Silksong features a new playable protagonist, Hornet, and will feature an entirely new kingdom to explore. Hornet, the princess of Hallownest, will be more agile and quick than The Knight, and will face speedier enemies. All told, lots of good news from Xbox today. Certainly there seems to be more in the pipeline for team Green than for PlayStation at the moment.
