Cody Rhodes to launch podcast as part of WWE's partnership with Fanatics
Rhodes' "What Do You Wanna Talk About" podcast will be sponsored by Wheatley American Vodka. The first episode will debut later this month.
"'What Do You Wanna Talk About' will feature Rhodes one-on-one with WWE Superstars across the WWE roster as well as WWE Legends as they share never-before-heard stories, discuss their career-defining moments and more," the company said in a news release obtained by Fox News Digital.
"The podcast expands on the Rhodes-led digital franchise which launched in July 2024 and featured interviews with Randy Orton, Bianca Belair and others, as 'The American Nightmare' traversed the country in his Wheatley-wrapped tour bus. New episodes will be available across all platforms as well as WWE's YouTube channel, which has amassed more than 107 million subscribers."
WWE said additional podcasts from other superstars and legends will be announced in the future.
Fightful Select first reported Rhodes' podcast last week.
Rhodes' podcast comes weeks after WWE and Fanatics announced "The Raw Recap Show," hosted by Megan Morant and Sam Roberts.
Rhodes will defend the Undisputed WWE Championship against John Cena at Allegiant Stadium on Night 2 of WrestleMania 41.
He has held the championship for more than a year after he defeated Roman Reigns. If Cena wins, he would set a record with the 17th WWE Championship reign of his career.

Taylor Swift Grabbed a Record Out From Under Trump & Swifties Call It Karma
Taylor Swift didn't just appear on her boyfriend Travis Kelce's New Heights podcast this week. She walked in, dropped her The Life of a Showgirl album announcement, and casually stole a record from Donald Trump. Within the first hour, her episode drew 1.3 million live viewers on YouTube, leaving Trump's Rogan sit-down — which peaked at 800,000 in the same timeframe — in the dust. His team once touted that number as proof of his unstoppable momentum. Swift nearly doubled it while chatting about sourdough and songwriting. For fans, the schadenfreude was immediate. 'tbh that was like half the reason I tuned in,' one person admitted on Reddit. Another agreed: 'Same, I spite watched it on YouTube for this very purpose.' More from SheKnows Taylor Swift Promises Showgirl Will Stay at 12 Songs - & Fans Think She's Addressing Something Bigger 'Straight Karma' another fan added. One more put it bluntly: 'Not a swiftie by any means but I love this for her. Any opportunity I can see anyone beat Trump in anything, is a win for me😍.' It wasn't lost on anyone that Trump is a man who famously cannot stand to lose. Watching Swift topple one of his recent bragging rights felt like poetic justice. 'Ah yes a generally male (and sports centric) podcast where they regularly praise their partners and women in their lives vs Joe Rogan,' one commenter noted. Another cut right to the chase: 'The point isn't that the Kelce bros podcast is better than Rogan's… it's that Taylor Swift is more popular than Trump which will piss Trump off a lot.' But just when it looked like Swift was delivering an unambiguous F-U, things got messier. According to Patrick Mahomes, the first call Swift made after recording wasn't to him or even to Travis — it was to Brittany Mahomes, per Us Weekly. Brittany, who once earned a glowing thank-you from Trump on Truth Social after she liked one of his posts, has been an awkward figure in Swift's circle ever since. The two women remain publicly close, but for some fans, the optics of Swift snatching a record from Trump and then FaceTiming one of his loudest cheerleaders were hard to ignore. Swift has never been subtle about her politics — she endorsed Kamala Harris last fall, and insiders have already hinted that The Life of a Showgirl may take a swing at Trump directly. Still, she seems to relish the layered symbolism of moments like this. As one Redditor quipped, 'lol I love how this is bringing her non fans and fans together for a common cause.' For Swifties, that common cause was simple: watching her swipe a win from a man who hates to lose. Before you go, click to see all of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's cutest PDA moments.

Logan Paul marries Nina Agdal in over-the-top Lake Como wedding — see the pics
What else would you expect from an influencer with 27 million Instagram followers? YouTube star and WWE personality Logan Paul has officially tied the knot with model and influencer Nina Agdal in a splashy, opulent Lake Como ceremony surrounded by family, friends, and plenty of over-the-top moments. The couple chose Italy's most glamorous backdrop — Lake Como — for their big day. The location held special meaning, as Paul proposed to Agdal at the luxurious Hotel Passalacqua in July 2023, where rooms start at over $2,300 a night. Their return to the region for the wedding marked a full-circle moment in their love story. Agdal wore a corseted lace gown with her hair swept into an updo, while Paul wore a white suit. The pair's 10-month-old daughter, Esme, also played a starring role in the celebration, making it a true family affair. The wedding guest list included Paul's brother, Jake, and his fiancée, Olympic skater Jutta Leerdam, 26. Logan shared a series of photos and videos with his 27 million Instagram followers, writing 'I've seriously been crying' over one emotional clip. But in true Paul family fashion, there was also a dose of chaos: Jake was filmed repeatedly punching the wedding cake and destroying it in the process, a bizarre moment that quickly went viral. "No respect for food," one commenter wrote. Another said, "Real men don't waste cake."

NFL still working out the kinks on virtual measurement of first downs
The NFL announced this offseason that it would use state-of-the-art technology to measure first downs, rather than the ancient technology of measuring with a 10-yard chain. But the technology hasn't been perfected yet. After Miami ran up the middle on third-and-1 today in Detroit, the virtual measurement technology was employed to see if it was a first down. But there was a significant delay in getting the first down confirmed, long enough that it really didn't save any time compared to bringing out the chains. At the same time that the virtual measurement was plodding along, YouTube's Sunday Ticket stream of the game briefly went out and was replaced by a 'technical difficulties' screen. It's unclear if those two technological issues were connected. While the virtual measurement is replacing the chains, the spotting of the ball is still done by the officials on the field. So if there's human error in assessing where the ball was when the ball carrier was stopped, the virtual measurement won't fix that. The NFL has partnered with Sony to use its Hawk-Eye technology, which is also used in soccer, tennis and other sports, for its virtual measurements.
