Seth Rollins Provides Update On Knee Injury, How Long He'll Be Out
Rollins hurt his knee at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event last weekend. His match against LA Knight went to an improvised finish after doctors checked on him. During the Evolution post-show press conference, Triple H spoke about Seth Rollins' current condition. He said Rollins traveled to WWE Evolution to support his wife, Becky Lynch, and would be in Birmingham the next day to undergo an MRI for his injury.
However, Seth Rollins says he couldn't have the MRI during a guest-hosting gig on Tuesday's episode of The Rich Eisen Show. Rollins said that despite traveling to Birmingham on Monday, he didn't undergo the MRI because his knee was too swollen to determine the cause of the issue.
Seth Rollins expects to be out of action for a while
Despite that, Rollins knows how the injury happened. He explained that when he attempted a moonsault, he felt his knee 'pop and buckle' on the landing. Rollins said he is still scheduled to undergo more screenings soon in Los Angeles. While he doesn't have a firm timeline, he expects he will be 'out for an extended period of time.'
'It was a little too swollen, so hopefully we're going to take another look in a week or two here in LA to try and get some sort of firm diagnosis and then we can go from there. I am not a doctor, I only know my body and what I feel. And what I feel is this is going to be me out for an extended period of time.'
Despite missing time, Rollins said that the silver lining of the situation is that he gets to spend more time at home with his daughter, Roux, while he recovers from the knee injury. He also hopes he makes it back for WrestleMania, but he won't have any answers until they take another look at his knee.
Seth Rollins' knee injury had a domino effect on Saturday Night's Main Event
Seth Rollins' knee injury resulted in a few changes in WWE's plans at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event. This includes the impromptu finish of the match, but also affected the timing of some of the segments that followed. According to a new report from Fightful (via Fightful Select), one of the audibles included the main event. Goldberg's post-match speech also got cut off early due to WWE having a hard out time on NBC.

Jason Momoa Wants You To Know His Son Got Cast In Dune Totally 'On His Own'
As the debate around the preferential treatment shown to so-called 'nepo babies' in Hollywood rages on, Jason Momoa is adamant that he's not part of the problem. The former Aquaman star played Duncan Idaho in Denis Villeneuve's Oscar-winning adaptation of Dune, and is set to reprise the role in the upcoming third instalment in the sci-fi series. For this next offering, though, he'll be joined on screen by a familiar face, with his 16-year-old son Nakoa-Wolf reported to have landed the role of Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya's on-screen son, Leto II. 'He's in for a rude awakening is what he's in for,' Jason told Extra of his son's big-screen debut. He's into the workforce for the first time. It's going to be good.' Seemingly shrugging off any nepotism suggestions, the actor then insisted: 'He did it on his own. I don't want to help him, and he's done it all on his own, and good for him.' Heaping praise on the teen, Jason added: 'You want your children to be better than you, and I really, actually believe he is. I couldn't do what he's doing at his age. There's no way I could sit in a room with Denis Villeneuve and hold my own.' 'I was on Baywatch at 19. He's 16 and holding shit down with Denis Villeneuve,' he remarked. Jason has two children with his ex-wife Lisa Bonet. They welcomed their first child, Lola Iolani, in July 2007, followed by Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo in December 2008. The two were together for almost 20 years before announcing their split in 2022, four years after tying the knot. Since then, Jason has entered a new relationship with fellow actor Adria Arjona, who joined him and the rest of his family at the premiere of his new drama Chief Of War earlier this month.

College football recruiting rankings have a new No. 1
The Georgia Bulldogs have the best recruiting class in the SEC for several weeks and now, after a recent recruiting rankings update, the Dawgs have the best recruiting class in the country. Georgia recently surpassed the USC Trojans. USC had held the nation's top recruiting class for several months. The Big Ten has three of the nation's top 10 recruiting classes while the SEC has five top 10 recruiting classes including four of the top six. Of course, it is still early in the process for the class of 2026. The early signing period does not begin until December and recruiting powerhouses need to prove themselves on the field this fall in order to secure top recruiting classes. Despite having the top ranked recruiting class, Georgia is no lock to finish the cycle with the best recruiting class. Georgia has more commitments than any other team with a top 10 recruiting class outside of USC. Additionally, Georgia's average commitment is ranked lower than the average LSU, Alabama or Oregon commitment. The LSU Tigers have just 16 commitments, but have the highest ranked average commitment (93.67) of any top 10 recruiting team on 247Sports. Class of 2026 college football recruiting rankings Georgia Bulldogs (30 commitments) USC Trojans (31 commitments) Texas A&M Aggies (23 commitments) Alabama Crimson Tide (21 commitments) Notre Dame Fighting Irish (26 commitments) Texas Longhorns (26 commitments) Ohio State Buckeyes (21 commitments) LSU Tigers (16 commitments) Michigan Wolverines (21 commitments) Miami Hurricanes (22 commitments) All recruiting rankings are per 247Sports and are as of July 27. This article originally appeared on UGA Wire: Georgia football now has the nation's No. 1 recruiting class

How to handle a PR crisis: Astronomer embraces viral Coldplay kiss cam scandal with Gwyneth Paltrow
It's the scandal that has pushed the internet into overdrive. Now, instead of crumbling, the company impacted by the now-infamous 'kiss-cam' Coldplay incident has decided to put a positive spin on their CEO's on-screen transgression. After being thrust into the spotlight, Astronomer has released a new promo video featuring none other than actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who has become the temporary spokesperson for company. The Hollywood actress, who used to be married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, agreed to join in on the viral moment, which caught married Astronomer CEO Andy Byron with his arms around Kristin Cabot, the company's HR chief, during a Coldplay gig. Paltrow can be seen in the new one-minute Astronomer video, thanking the public for their interest in the company – which up until recently was largely unknown to the general public. 'I've been hired on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of the 300-plus employees at Astronomer,' she says in the clip. 'Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last few days – and they wanted me to answer the most common ones.' A question is then typed out on the screen that reads: 'OMG, what the actual…' Before the final four-letter-word-beginning-with-an-F-and-ending-with-an-UCK appears, the video cuts back to Paltrow, who goes on to promote some of the services Astronomer offers. 'We've been thrilled so many people have a newfound interest in data workflow automation.' Another question then pops up on the screen: 'How is your social media team holding up?' Again, before the sentence fully appears, Paltrow interrupts to say that Astronomer still has tickets for an upcoming conference in September. 'We'll now be returning to what we do best: delivering game-changing results for our customers,' she adds at the end of the video. It's a canny move from Astronomer, which has clearly understood that the viral 'Coldplaygate' needn't be a source of (total) ridicule and that the now-pop culture phenomenon could be spun to their advantage. Instead of ignoring the issue and dodging questions, their strategy has been to embrace the embarrassment and own it. And Paltrow is not the only celebrity attached to the company's cheeky retort, as Ryan Reynold's company, Maximum Effort, announced its involvement in the video. "Thank you for your interest in Maximum Effort, @astronomerio! We'll now get back to what we do best: motion pictures with Hugh Jackman, Fastvertising and Wrexham football," Maximum Effort's X post read. "We'll leave data workflow automation to Gwyneth Pa... Astronomer." Maximum Effort makes ads and movies - often with an irreverent tone that mirrors Reynold's comedic style. Astronomer's co-founder and new CEO, Pete DeJoy, thanked Maximum Effort in a LinkedIn post on Sunday. "I'd also like to thank the team at Maximum Effort for their remarkable work with our very temporary spokesperson," DeJoy said. "As Gwyneth Paltrow said, now it's time for us to return to what we do best: delivering game-changing results for our customers. We look forward to what this next chapter holds for Astronomer." Days after the Coldplaygate clip went viral, it was revealed that Byron had resigned from Astronomer. Then, on 25 July, Cabot also stepped down from her role as chief people officer. Their much-memed transgression has led to online streams of Coldplay's songs jumping by 20 per cent according to Luminate, the industry data and analytics company, as well as increased interest in Astronomer. The company was founded in 2018, and provides services for companies that want to leverage Artificial Intelligence. DeJoy has said that the company has faced an "unusual and surreal" amount of attention since the event. He wrote on LinkedIn: "While I would never have wished for it to happen like this, Astronomer is now a household name." In the wake of Byron's resignation, Chris Martin joked about the situation: 'We'd like to say hello to some of you in the crowd and put some of you on the big screen. How we're going to do that is we're going to use our cameras and put some of you on the big screen. Please, if you haven't done your makeup, do your makeup now!' The moment has also led Liam Gallagher to joke about the incident at a recent Oasis gig, telling fans not to worry as there are no cameras focused on the crowd during their reunion tour. "Don't worry for those who are cheating we don't have that Coldplay camera here," he said. Elsewhere, a new video game inspired by the viral moment is now available to play. Coldplay Canoodlers AKA The Cheating Game sees players take on the role of a kiss-cam operator and have to scan the crowd of a stadium show looking for the loved-up pair. Check it out here. 'I vibe coded a little game called Coldplay Canoodlers. You're the camera operator and you have to find the CEO and HR lady canoodling. 10 points every time you find them,' explained game creator Jonathan Mann on X. 'I wanted to see how fast I could vibe code a simple game based on a viral moment.' As if that weren't enough, the word "Coldplayed" has become a recent addition to the dictionary, courtesy of Ultimate Classic Rock. "Coldplayed" as a verb is defined thusly: "The act of being unintentionally exposed while cheating, especially in public, usually during major events" and "To be seen at the wrong place with the wrong person at the wrong time."
