Former AEW Favorite Fuego Del Sol Shocks Fans with Fake Retirement
The stakes were high. If Fuego lost, the Alabama high-flyer would have to unmask. For a luchador, that's the worst thing that could happen. Cogar was putting his career in Game Changer Wrestling on the line. Considering his recent decision to shift away from deathmatch wrestling, it seemed like Cogar would lose.

But no! Cogar won the match. Not only did Fuego remove his mask, but he also left his wrestling boots in the ring. That usually signals a retirement. He thanked his fans on X and said it was time to return to his family.
Nobody was prepared for what would happen next.
At GCW's weekend show in Los Angeles, the unmasked Fuego returned to the ring and unleashed a brutal taser attack against his longtime friend, Sam Stackhouse. Fuego smashed Stackhouse repeatedly with a steel chair and then came back with a wooden chair!

Fuego will not be retiring, as he will continue to wrestle under the name of KJ Orso. He fooled everyone with this ruse, and now he's ready to reinvent himself on the independent scene.
The fans loved Fuego when he competed in the early days of AEW. Cody Rhodes even teamed up with him once as 'Fuego Dos.' Let's see if his change of heart and attitude leads him to WWE or back to AEW.

Jenna Ortega Channels a Gothic Kate Moss in a Leather Slip Dress
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. A press tour's final days are a battle between the star and the clock. Jenna Ortega, for example, is delivering as many last-minute looks as she and stylist Enrique Melendez can beforeWednesday Season 2 drops on Friday. As the promo cut-off drew near, Ortega's style streak continued on August 5 in fresh-off-the-runway Ann Demeulemeester. At New York City's Paris Theater, Ortega met up with her Wednesday co-stars to surprise fans at a special screening. She hasn't gone the all-black route in a week, as to not be "too predictable," Melendez told me earlier in the tour. But on Tuesday evening, she returned to her character's roots in Ann Demeulemeester Fall 2025. Ortega picked Look 4 from the 37-piece line: a '90s-inspired slip dress made of leather and silk. As seen on the runway, the leather ruffles began at the cowl neck and ended atop the asymmetrical hem. In the Fall 2025 show, the model grunge-ified her gown with chunky platform shoes. Ortega, however, chose lace-up knee-high boots from Miista, which looked straight out of Wednesday Addams's gothic, yet academic aesthetic. In the accessory department, Ortega swapped the catwalk choices for more minimalist moments, including a singular silver bangle, mismatched rings, and no necklace. Direct from the red carpet, Melendez posted Ortega's step-and-repeat on Instagram, calling the Demeulemeester design "perfect for NYC." In another IG story, he applauded Ortega for "serving Kate Goth... I mean, Kate Moss." Clearly the supermodel, and her '90s-era slips inspired their selection. View Deal Moss is practically synonymous with '90s slip dresses featuring the same cowl neckline and flowy skirt as Ortega's. At the 1995 CFDA Awards, the A-lister stole the show in a white maxi. If the LWD turned black, it would've bared a shocking resemblance to Ortega's latest look, hence the "Kate Goth" reference. And just like that, Ortega and Melendez nailed another homage. At this point, the dynamic duo are their own competition. I, for one, can't wait for the L.A. premiere tomorrow, where they'll certainly outdo themselves once again.

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. White flowers were absolutely everywhere. 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."
