John Cena Comments On Potentially Having One Final Match With The Rock
Cena and The Rock have one win each in their legendary rivalry. The Rock beat Cena at WrestleMania 28, but Cena got his revenge the following year at WrestleMania 29. As Cena continues his retirement tour, fans have already seen him take on longtime rivals like Randy Orton and CM Punk one last time.
During a recent panel at FAN EXPO Denver, Cena addressed the possibility of a third match against The Rock. He explained that he doesn't usually choose his opponents and prefers to focus on telling strong stories in the ring.
'Gosh, fantasy booking. For those who are not inside baseball, fantasy booking is when you take an idea in your head and you're like, man, it would be cool if… That's what I'm hearing here. Man, it would be cool if John Cena could fight The Rock one more time. That, to me, that would be cool. I've survived and kept a level head over 25 years in the WWE by not setting expectations, by showing up every single day, doing what I'm told and asked to do it to the best of my ability.'
Cena said he takes full responsibility for both his successes and failures, referencing past moments fans have criticized. 'Where I ask for freedom, where I ask for creative expression is not in the selection of my opponent. It is in the process of how we put forth the work to you guys. That way I can be accountable for all my failures. You guys say I buried the Nexus. I got to shoulder that cross forever because that's me. But there are some wins along the way.'
'There are some people that's like, man, you're doing your best work now, and it seems like you're in a different place and all that. And I can live that triumph as well.' Cena made it clear that while he doesn't push for specific matches, he values the freedom WWE gives him. 'I don't like to choose opponents because a lot of times that doesn't work out. What I like to do is get a plan and say, 'hey, well, can I, as the artist, can I be creative with the plan?' I've earned enough trust that they'll they'll let me do some stupid stuff, and I appreciate it.' [H/T: Fightful]

3 underrated Netflix movies you should watch this weekend (August 8-10)
When Netflix introduced streaming, it fundamentally changed the way we watch everything. And, while streaming has come with plenty of perks, it's also given us more choices about what we can watch, which necessarily leaves us wondering what we should spend time watching. If you've browsed Netflix for something worthy of your time and decided that you should go to bed instead, you're not alone. We've pulled together a list of three underrated movies on Netflix that are all worth your time. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, and the best movies on Amazon Prime Video. They Cloned Tyrone (2023) An original sci-fi movie with a terrific cast that didn't get the eyeballs it deserved, They Cloned Tyrone follows three people tied together by circumstance who begin to uncover a sinister government conspiracy. The movie's premise — a man realizes that he's been cloned — is super stylish and the perfect combination of absurd and serious. They Cloned Tyrone is anchored by its three central performances and a particular reminder of how skilled Jamie Foxx and John Boyega both are when they have the right material. You can watch They Cloned Tyrone on Netflix. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (2023) Generally speaking, it's hard to describe anything that Wes Anderson directed as underrated. The writer/director is hugely popular among film fans, and his movies usually debut to critical acclaim. Unfortunately, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, as well as three other Roald Dahl short stories that he adapted for Netflix in 2023, did not receive the attention they deserve. This one tells the story of a billionaire who becomes enthralled by his desire to acquire a particular, rare skill and devotes his life to it. Henry Sugar is funny, moving, and among the most stylish things that Anderson has ever directed. Benedict Cumberbatch is the perfect centerpiece for this odd tale. You can watch The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar on Netflix. The Color Purple (2023) An adaptation of the Alice Walker novel and 1985 film of the same name, this version of The Color Purple is a musical and a fascinating improvement on the original. It follows Celie, an introverted housewife in the Deep South who overcomes an abusive husband and a decades-long separation from her sister to find the life that she wants. Featuring stylish musical numbers, great songs, and an enduring central story, The Color Purple also features several incredible performances, including ones from Taraji P. Henson and Danielle Brooks that deserved more attention. You can watch The Color Purple on Netflix.

Hulk Hogan's Daughter Tried to Stop Him From Marrying Wife Sky
Wrestling icon Hulk Hogan married Sky Daily less than two years before his death despite pleas from his only daughter, Brooke Hogan, to stop the marriage. "Sky was always very nice to me," Brooke, 37, shared during a conversation with Bubba the Love Sponge on Tuesday, August 5. "She's nice, and she's cool, and, you know, I don't really want to go into too much detail about our conversations, but he was saying, you know, 'She's pushing the marriage thing real hard.'" Brooke went on to recall how her late father previously told her he "was never getting married again," adding that it "wasn't a worry." "And I said, 'Well, Dad, you don't have to do what you don't have to do, you know,'" Brooke continued. Hulk reportedly confessed to his daughter that he was "trying to find a way out" of the marriage, to which Brooke offered from him to use her as an excuse. "'Well, if I broke up with her, it'd be really bad,'" Hulk said, according to Brooke. "And I said, 'What do you mean?' And he goes, 'I don't want to get into it, you know, whatever.'" According to Brooke, Hulk had concerns surrounding his future wife's ties to Scientology, despite claiming that she had left the church. "You need to be careful. If you want to date her, cool. Just don't get married," Brooke urged her father. "You don't have to. I was concerned about everything else too." Hulk and Sky, 47, ultimately tied the knot in a small ceremony in Clearwater, Florida, in September 2023. The former WWE superstar died of a heart attack at his home in Clearwater on July 24. At the time, Hogan was recovering from a "major four-level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)" he had undergone weeks earlier, Daily revealed. He was 71 years old.
