Two WWE Superstars May Be Leaving The Company
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The WWE future of Karrion Kross and Scarlett is in serious doubt as their contracts with the company are reportedly set to expire this weekend. A new report indicates that as of Monday afternoon, no new deal had been offered to the duo. Kross and Scarlett were noticeably absent from the August 4th episode of Monday Night Raw, and they were not backstage at the event. This has fueled intense speculation about their status with the company. A Looming WWE Deadline A new report from Fightful Select has confirmed that the contracts for both Karrion Kross and Scarlett are due to expire this coming weekend. A WWE higher-up noted that new deals had not yet been offered to either performer. This news comes just days after Kross concluded a high-profile feud with Sami Zayn at SummerSlam. The uncertainty surrounding his contract has become one of the biggest backstage stories in WWE. WWE Career of Creative Extremes Karrion Kross's WWE journey has been a rollercoaster of creative highs and lows. During his first run in NXT, he was booked as an unstoppable monster, and with Scarlett by his side, he became a dominant, two-time NXT Champion. However, his initial main roster debut in 2021 is considered one of the biggest fumbles in recent history, as he was stripped of his character and lost his first match, which killed his momentum and led to his release.

The WWE logo is seen on the front of the WWE wrestling world headquarters on January 28, 2024 in Stamford, Connecticut. WWE founder Vince McMahon resigned from the WWE and its parent company TKO as executive chairman and its board of directors following allegations of sexual assault made public in a lawsuit in Connecticut. A former employee Janel Grant accused McMahon, 78, of sexual assault and sexually trafficking her. MoreHe was brought back by the new creative regime in 2022 with his full character restored. While his second run has been more successful, it has also been marked by inconsistent booking, with pushes that have often been stopped and started, which has reportedly been a source of professional frustration. More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match A Recent WWE Resurgence In recent months, Kross has seen a career resurgence, largely thanks to a groundswell of fan support. The "We Want Kross" movement on social media led to him being featured more prominently and adopting a more intense, personal character. This culminated in a long-running feud with one of Raw's top babyfaces, Sami Zayn. Despite losing to Zayn at both Night of Champions and this past weekend's SummerSlam, Kross's performance and character work were highly praised. With his popularity on the rise, the news of his potential departure is a puzzling development. The clock is now ticking for WWE and Kross to come to terms on a new agreement.

Top WWE Star Is Out Of Action Indefinitely
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. WWE has announced that the former World Heavyweight Champion, GUNTHER, is out of action indefinitely. The announcement was made on the August 4th episode of Monday Night Raw, just two days after he lost his title in the main event of SummerSlam Night One. On the broadcast, commentator Michael Cole provided a storyline explanation for the former champion's upcoming absence. The on-screen injury is being used to write "The Ring General" off of television. Cole just announced Gunther will be out indefinitely because of an orbital — Julian Weeks (@JulianWks) August 5, 2025 A Brutal Diagnosis For GUNTHER Michael Cole stated to the television audience that during his match with CM Punk at SummerSlam, GUNTHER suffered a septal hematoma and an orbital blowout fracture. These severe-sounding facial injuries are the official storyline reason why he will be away from WWE programming. The on-air announcement provides a kayfabe explanation for the bloody nose GUNTHER was shown with at the conclusion of the SummerSlam main event. WWE Blending Fact And Fiction This storyline injury appears to be a masterful way to write GUNTHER off television so he can undergo a legitimate medical procedure. It was previously reported by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer that the bloody finish at SummerSlam was a planned angle. The purpose was to provide cover for GUNTHER to have legitimate nose surgery in the near future. By creating a severe storyline injury, WWE is able to protect the aura of the nearly unbeatable "Ring General," even in defeat. The narrative suggests he lost his title while battling through serious fractures, making him look incredibly tough.

The End Of A Dominant WWE Era GUNTHER's time off comes at the end of one of the most dominant runs in modern WWE history. Before winning the World Heavyweight Championship, he held the Intercontinental Championship for a record-breaking 666 days, a reign that is widely credited with restoring prestige to the title. His hard-hitting, physical style has made him one of the most respected and feared in-ring performers in the world. His loss to CM Punk at SummerSlam was a massive moment, and it was immediately followed by chaos. Seth Rollins, revealing his own recent injury was a work, successfully cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Punk to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. GUNTHER's absence now clears the way for the new feud between Rollins and Punk to take center stage on Raw. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports.

Aaron Judge will rejoin the Yankees on Tuesday after IL stint
ARLINGTON, Texas — Aaron Judge will be activated by the New York Yankees when their captain is eligible to come off the 10-day injured list after being sidelined because of a flexor strain in his right elbow. Maybe the two-time AL MVP slugger can help get them back on track. Manager Aaron Boone said after New York's fourth consecutive loss, 8-5 to the Texas Rangers in 10 innings, that Judge will be available for the middle game of the three-game series. 'Judge tomorrow,' Boone said, without elaborating when asked about his return. While Boone didn't reveal then what the specific plans were, he had said before the game that Judge would be the designated hitter when he first returned to the lineup. He said the outfielder could also play catch while in Texas, which will help determine when he could return to playing in the field. After hitting off Yankees minor league pitchers at the team's complex in Tampa for the second day in a row, Judge traveled to Texas and was there for the series opener. He didn't speak to reporters in the clubhouse after the game. Judge hasn't played since July 25 because of the elbow strain. An MRI showed no acute damage to his ulnar collateral ligament and he had a platelet-rich injection July 27, when he was placed on the IL in a move retroactive to the previous day. His .342 batting average was still the best in the majors. He was fourth with 37 homers and fifth with 85 RBIs. New York will have an open spot on its active roster because Boone said newly acquired outfielder Austin Slater was headed to the IL. Slater, acquired from the Chicago White Sox, exited in the second inning because of left hamstring tightness after running out a fielder's choice grounder. Giancarlo Stanton has been the Yankees' starting DH for all of his 32 games this season, including the opener against the Rangers when his 10th homer was a two-run shot in the fourth that put the Yankees up 5-4. He missed the first 70 games of the season with inflammation in the tendons of both elbows, and Boone said he wouldn't play the outfield in Texas if Judge does DH during the series. The first time Judge said he felt pain in the elbow was July 22 at Toronto, after he made a strong throw home when George Springer singled to right. An inning later, Judge winced after catching a fly in the right-field corner and throwing to second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. Judge was caught by a YES Network camera clenching his right hand in a fist. The Yankees arrived in Texas after being swept in a three-game series at Miami and falling to third place in the AL East behind Toronto and Boston. They were in first place to start July, but are now 5 1/2 games behind the division-leading Blue Jays, and currently in a wild-card spot 2 1/2 games behind the Red Sox with 49 left in the regular season. When asked if the current stretch, which includes an 18-28 record since June 13, was weighing on his team, Boone said he felt that it was. 'Doesn't matter,' Boone said. 'Nobody cares how stressful it is, or that's all just noise, excuses, whatever. We've got to play better, and we've got to win, and we know that.'
