First match announced for TNA Slammiversary
Santino Marella used his Director of Authority power to book Moose versus Leon Slater for the X-Division Championship.

The justification was Slater pinning the champ in an 8-man tag bout at Against All Odds. The history runs deeper than that though with the controversial finish in the Ultimate X match at TNA Rebellion. Slater had retrieved the title, but Moose speared him to steal the belt before Slater's feet hit the mat.
For those sleeping on Slater, here is a taste of his skills with the swanton 450 splash.
At the end of Impact, Slater leaped over the ring post onto a pile of bodies.
There could be a wrinkle in this match for Slammiversary, because Moose has business first at AAA Triplemania Regia to defend the X-Division Championship in a four-way against Joe Hendry, El Mesias, and El Hijo del Wagner Jr. A title change is doubtful in that bout, but it still needs to be considered as a possibility. For those keeping track of the live timeline, the Slammiversary announcement was filmed before the Triplemania Regia announcement.

Rihanna Makes Daytime Pajamas a Glamorous Affair
If you thought that daytime sleepwear was left behind in the WFH days of 2020, you'd be sorely mistaken. Yesterday, Rihanna modeled a pajamas-as-daywear look while out in Los Angeles with her son, RZA. Rih continued to plumb the depths of maternity style in a pair of her own Savage x Fenty PJs, opting for a salmon pink and white striped button-up and pull-on pants. As she continues to remind us, accessorizing makes the look: Rihanna played up the baby pink in her PJs with a pink and white headscarf and a pair of pink satin Maison Margiela tabi ballerina flats. ShotbyNYP / BACKGRIDUSA ShotbyNYP / BACKGRIDUSA The singer and mogul styled her matching set with heaps of jewelry, including go-to Renato Cipullo 'R' pendant among her necklace stack, blue heart-shaped Valentino Garavani clip-on earrings, and her beloved rose gold Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch. Rih finished off her errands look with a white Gucci shoulder bag and a pair of cat-eye sunglasses. Rihanna isn't the only celebrity to endorse the sleepwear look. Earlier this summer, Jennifer Lawrence took a stroll in a flowing, off-white Rohé set, dressed up with a pair of mesh flats from The Row, a Dior Saddlebag, and, like Rih, layered gold necklaces.

Avengers: Doomsday's 'leaked' X-Men design for Nightcrawler is actually just fan art
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. We'll have to wait a bit longer to see the X-Men design for Avengers: Doomsday, because it turns out that a previously 'leaked' image is just fanart. The original artwork was shared by Alan Cumming himself, who plays Nightcrawler and is returning for the next Avengers movie. It appeared to show a picture of his character in costume, but, as one person has debunked on Twitter, the image is actually an edit made by a fan and shared online last year. "Actually, what's great about it, it was four-and-a-half to five hours before, and now it was 90 minutes," Cumming has previously said of his Nightcrawler look. "Before, all the tattoos were done by hand because they hadn't decided on them before we started filming and now there are all these little things that stick on – it's a game changer." Cumming isn't the only X-Men actor returning for Avengers: Doomsday, either. He'll be joined by Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellan, Kelsey Grammer, Rebecca Romijn, and James Marsden, as revealed in that bumper sized casting announcement. "[I'm] not quite sure [if Mystique's scenes have all been filmed]. They haven't finished writing it." Romijn said back in July. "They keep everything close to the vest themselves in an effort to keep everything under wraps." That tracks with what Kevin Feige has said about the movie, too: "There's plus-ing happening every day on the Avengers: Doomsday set right now, and it is amazing to watch because what those filmmakers, those actors, both the ones that are playing these characters for the first or second time and the one playing them for the 10th or 12th time, are the best in the world at it, and know these characters so well." Avengers: Doomsday arrives next December. In the meantime, check out our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows for everything else the MCU has in store. Solve the daily Crossword
