Remember, take it all with a grain of salt. Rumors for the Day: On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said he believes Bronson Reed was added to Seth Rollins' group so he can take pins in the group's losses instead of Rollins or Bron Breakker. WWE held a mandatory Zoom meeting for all contracted talent recently, per PW Insider. Newer medical treatments like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cell therapy were discussed in what was described as an informational session designed to help wrestlers make educated decisions about managing injuries and long-term health. TNA held their own meeting at their TV taping Saturday. Talent were given a memo announcing $100 fines for instances where slaps are used without an agent's approval, or for any throat-slashing gesture. The meeting was also to 'express unhappiness' that previous memos had leaked, then someone leaked that info and the new memo to Fightful Select.

WWE was 'absolutely' interested in talking to Willow Nightingale had she not re-signed with AEW, says PW Insider. On The Bryan & Vinny Show, Bryan Alvarez said Hook 'was still getting evaluated' at Double or Nothing and that's why they have him 'do anything other than hitting a guy with a golf club' during Sunday night's Anarchy in the Arena match.

EXCLUSIVE Honey Boo Boo Alana Thompson finally breaks silence on fan speculation that she's pregnant
Alana Thompson has addressed ongoing speculation that she is pregnant after being subjected to bizarre online theories for years. The 19-year-old reality star, known by her affectionate nickname Honey Boo Boo, joined for an exclusive in-studio interview on Friday, hours ahead of the season seven launch of Mama June: Family Crisis. Sitting alongside her mother, Mama June Shannon, Alana was asked whether she wanted to correct any narratives about her that are untrue. 'The one that I'm pregnant,' she immediately responded. Confirming that she is not expecting, Alana continued: 'I'm not pregnant at all.' Referring to the rumor mill, she said: 'I've literally been pregnant for two years. I'm either pregnant or I have a kid already – and I don't have either of the above!' Despite the false pregnancy speculation, Mama June, 45, revealed that the family have taken the theories in their stride. 'We joke about it,' she quipped. 'We say, "don't lie Alana! You've got twins!"' Alana stressed that the obsession with her family plans needs to stop. 'I don't have any kids,' she stated, doubling down. 'I'm not looking forward to having any kids right now. Nothing.' In a Reddit discussion only yesterday, fans questioned whether Alana might be having a baby. Many, however, have criticized the hearsay. 'Alana has spoken so many times about how she struggles with body image, especially after June had the surgery, can we stop talking about her body and accusing her of being pregnant?' one said. 'That's just rude and pointless. If she is, she'll eventually reveal it, if she's not we're just hurting her feeling for no reason.' Another penned: 'I'm not believing this because everyone is always making up weird rumors about Alana being pregnant every five seconds.' Alana is loved up with her 24-year-old boyfriend Dralin Carswell, whom she's been in a relationship since 2021. The popular reality TV star, 18, currently lives with her 21-year-old partner as she attends college in Denver for her neonatal nursing degree The pair live together in Denver, Colorado, where Alana is currently studying to become a nurse. Mama June: Family Crisis is set to return to We TV this evening with the new episodes set to follow June as she fights for custody of Kaitlyn after Anna's death. 'June also searches for a new, bigger house with Justin and works toward keeping a healthy lifestyle with new tricks up her sleeve,' the official synopsis teases. 'Away at college, Alana continues to wait for repayment from June and worries her boyfriend, Dralin, may face jail time.' 'Pumpkin's business booms with a new warehouse, a vendor event and a new employee – causing a rift with Jessica. Meanwhile, Pumpkin and Josh's marriage is in trouble, leading her to make a shocking decision.'

Furious Melania Trump quashes 'completely false' viral rumor that Barron was rejected from Harvard
A furious Melania Trump is denying the 'completely false' rumor that her son Barron was rejected from Harvard University. The viral internet rumor about the 19-year-old resurfaced on Tuesday after President Donald Trump launched another broadside against the Ivy League university, cutting the federal government's remaining contracts, which are worth about $100 million. The first lady's office denied Barron ever applied to Harvard, let alone got turned down from attending. 'Barron did not apply to Harvard, and any assertion that he, or that anyone on his behalf, applied is completely false,' her communications director Nicholas Clemens said in a statement. Harvard has a notoriously high reject rate with about 96% of applicants being told no. It's unclear where the rumor that Barron was rejected got started. When President Trump launched his first broadside against Harvard in April, canceling a massive round of federal funding after the university wouldn't bow to his demands, the internet went a fire with speculation he was angry because his son wasn't admitted. 'Did Trump target Harvard because the university rejected Barron?,' read several posts on social media. Even a Democratic senator stoked the fires of speculation with a tweet on the matter. 'Can't help but wonder how many Trumps got rejected by Harvard,' Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island wrote on X when he reposted an article about the president's attacks. There has never been any evidence that Barron applied and was rejected. The youngest Trump child broke from family's tradition when he decided to attend Stern Business School at New York University. The president attended the University of Pennsylvania as did many of his children. Other Trump kids went to Georgetown University. In an interview with DailyMail last fall, Donald Trump said Barron had been accepted to 'a lot' of colleges. 'He's a very smart guy, and he'll be going to Stern, the business school, which is a great school at NYU,' he said. He also said Barron had considered following in his footsteps at University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, but ultimately chose NYU. 'It's a very high quality place. He liked it. He liked the school,' said Trump. Barron graduated from Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach, Florida, last May. He lives in Trump Tower in New York while attending NYU. Melania Trump has spent much of her time as first lady in New York with her son. The two are close and she is known to be protective of him. In September, she told Fox News that Barron was always looking at studying in New York. He 'wants to be in New York and study in New York and live in his home,' she said at the time. President Trump, meanwhile, has waged war on elite universities, accusing them of antisemitism and blasting their 'woke' ideology. He claims the top schools in the country are controlled by 'Marxist maniacs and lunatics.' Trump has demanded Harvard eliminate its diversity, equity, and inclusion program; cut the power of its professors; refuse foreign students; and ban masks at campus protests. Harvard is fighting back just as hard, filing lawsuits in federal court to counter the administration.
