Becky Lynch: I Am the Definition of Evolution
All three women gave everything they had. There were tons of near-falls in the match. At one point in the match, Bayley hit the Rose Plant on Valkyria and went for the cover. As she was about to get the win, Becky Lynch came out of nowhere, rolled up Bayley and got the pinfall victory to retain her championship.

Following the match, The Man took to Twitter to send a message to the WWE Universe. She claimed that she is the definition of Evolution. Lynch also commented on some fans calling her Becky Hogan online.
'What did you expect? What did you expect? Evolution. I am the definition of Evolution. When I came up here ten years ago, ain't nobody thought that I was going to be the defining moment in the business. And I am. I am the Intercontinental Champion. I am the greatest to ever do it. It's not just me saying it; other people say it. No, you can't call me Becky Hogan. Becky Hogan. I ain't Becky Hogan, I am Becky Freakin Lynch. And I'm going to keep doing this until there's somebody better than me. But spoiler, there ain't gonna be,' Becky Lynch said.

Nick Hogan speaks out to honor ‘greatest dad in the world' days after Hulk's death
Hulk Hogan's only son Nick has honored the wrestling legend in a heartfelt tribute in his first remarks since his father's sudden death. Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, died last Thursday after suffering a cardiac arrest at the age of 71. He is survived by Nick, 35, and estranged daughter Brooke, 37, whom he shared with his first ex-wife, Linda. 'This has been overwhelming and extremely difficult,' Nick wrote on Instagram on Saturday alongside a carousel of images of him and his father throughout the years. The first image featured the pair in matching red and yellow shirts when Nick was a young boy. 'Hearing so many kind words and stories about my dad's life, interactions and experiences with everyone has been incredible and comforting,' he added. Remembering Hogan as the 'most incredible person I've ever known' and his forever 'hero,' he called him the 'most kind, loving and amazing father anybody could ask for.' 'I feel so blessed to have had the greatest dad in the world,' Nick wrote. 'He was not only the best dad but also my mentor and my best friend. He always has been my best friend and I love him and miss him more than I could ever explain.' Nick Hogan said he had thanked his father 'for everything he has ever done for me and told him how much I loved him and hugged him every chance I got.' 'I spent a lot of time with him the past few years after moving back to Florida to be closer to him and I am so grateful for those memories. They are the best moments in my life,' he added. He continued: 'I would do anything to have him back but I know now that he will always be watching over me. I will always remember the lessons and advice he gave me and carry on in a way that I know would make him proud.' Hogan thanked his father for being 'the best dad in the world' and his 'best friend.' 'I love you so much Big Dog and I will miss you forever,' he wrote. The family of four — Hogan, Linda, Brooke, and Nick — starred in a reality TV series, Hogan Knows Best, which aired from 2005 to 2007. During the filming of the series, Nick was a burgeoning motorsports racer. But his career was cut short after he was involved in a devastating car crash in 2007. He was accused of driving under the influence of alcohol and spent several months in a Florida county jail. He remained close to his father over the years, even celebrating Hogan on Father's Day last month. 'Had a great Father's Day with the goat! Happy Father's Day to all the awesome dads!' he wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of himself as a child flexing with his father. Brooke, on the other hand, had experienced a falling out with both of her parents, revealing in March that she had 'completely separate reasons for going no contact' with both of them. 'I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood,' Brooke claimed on Instagram. 'Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes it's not by the person you would assume, abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.' Linda vehemently denied Brooke's accusations, calling her daughter 'a narcissist just like her dad.' Meanwhile, Hogan said he had no idea why Brooke no longer spoke to him.

American musical satirist Tom Lehrer dies at 97, US media report
American musician and satirist Tom Lehrer has died at the age of 97, according to US media reports. Lehrer, a Harvard-trained mathematician, wrote darkly humorous songs, often with political connotations, that became popular in the 1950s and 1960s. Modern comedians such as Weird Al Yankovich said they have been influenced by Lehrer's work. His death was confirmed to the New York Times by David Herder, a friend. Born in Manhattan in 1928, Lehrer was a classically trained pianist. But despite his musical success, he spent most of his life pursuing academia. His teaching posts included spells at Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the University of California. 'I remember Ozzy missing a gig and it caused a riot' Brian Wilson obituary: Troubled genius who wrote most of The Beach Boys' hits He graduated early from the Loomis Chaffee School in Connecticut, according to the New York Times, and then went to Harvard, where he majored in mathematics and received his bachelor's degree in 1946 aged 18. He completed a masters there and also pursued a PHd at Columbia University, which he never completed. He began writing lyrics while at Harvard to entertain friends. Lehrer's most enduring songs include The Elements, a list of the chemical elements set to the tune of I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General from The Pirates of Penzance, Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera. Other fan favourites include The Masochism Tango, in which singer extols his beloved's violent passions with the lyrics, "I ache for the touch of your lips, dear / But much more for the touch of your whips, dear..." He was renowned for his darkly comic ballads, including the necrophiliac epic I Hold Your Hand in Mine, I Got It From Agnes - where he sang about the transmission of a venereal disease - and Poisoning Pigeons in the Park, which detailed the birds' apparent appetite for "peanuts coated with cyanide". In 1953 he released Songs by Tom Lehrer, a record that was sold through the post. It became a word of mouth success and sold an estimated half a million copies. The BBC banned most of Songs from the airwaves the following year. Following the success of the album, Lehrer began playing in nightclubs in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, and at events for anti-war and left-wing groups. He wrote songs for the US edition of the satirical British show That Was the Week That Was, which were were made into an album in 1965. The highly controversial Vatican Rag, a Catholic hymn set in ragtime that mocked the Church, was featured among other songs that condemned nuclear weapons. He wrote for the 1970s educational children's show, The Electric Company, and in 1980 his songs enjoyed a revival when theatre producer Cameron Mackintosh staged the musical revue "Tomfoolery" featuring his work. He also taught maths and musical theatre courses at the University of California from 1972 to 2001, according to the New York Times. In 2020, Lehrer placed his song writing copyrights in the public domain, allowing anyone to perform, record or interpret his work for free. He also relinquished all rights to his recordings. In a statement on his website at the time, he wrote: "In short, I no longer retain any rights to any of my songs. So help yourselves, and don't send me any money." He also warned the website would be "shut down at some date in the not too distant future". The website was still live at the time of writing.

Colorado Prof Cheers ‘South Park' Trump Mockery, Frustrated By Comics Not Doing Same
PHOENIX, ARIZONA - DECEMBER 22: U.S. President-elect Donald Trump looks on during Turning Point ... More USA's AmericaFest at the Phoenix Convention Center on December 22, 2024 in Phoenix, Arizona. The annual four day conference geared toward energizing and connecting conservative youth hosts some of the country's leading conservative politicians and activists. (Photo by) A Colorado professor said it was 'funny as hell' the way South Park went after President Donald Trump in its Season 27 premiere episode, yet he's frustrated that more comedians on the left aren't taking the same approach. South Park, of course, is set in the fictionalized Colorado city of South Park, which follows four elementary school friends: Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny. In the new episode, called Sermon on the 'Mount, series creators and voice stars Trey Parker and Matt Stone skewered the president by, among other things, giving him small genitalia both in South Park-style animation and through a live-action AI deepfake. The episode also showed a South Park-animated version of Trump in bed with Satan and in some not-so-flattering 'White House portraits,' plus it also refers to 'Epstein's list.' The debut of the South Park Season 27 episode came only hours after Paramount Global announced a deal it made with Parker and Stone to bring South Park and 50 new episodes to its Paramount+ streaming platform, as well as the first 26 seasons of the Comedy Central series. The deal, which is for five years, was reported by several outlets to be worth $1.5 billion and comes just as Skydance finalizes its acquisition of Paramount Global. Given the classic animated Comedy Central series' history where everyone is subject to ridicule, Parker and Stone also took aim not only at Trump, but Paramount Global in its Season 27 premiere episode on Thursday. The episode not only called out the company's $16 million lawsuit settlement with Trump over a 60 Minutes segment, but it also skewered the company's decision to cancel its late-night talk show The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Colorado State University Associate Professor of Film and Media Studies Nick Marx told Wired in an article published Thursday that he was refreshed by the way South Park went after Trump following the methods the ousted talk show host and others have used criticize the president. 'It's f---ing funny as hell that they seek to sexually humiliate Trump,' Marx told Wired, noting how Parker and Stone were going after the president's 'vanity and insecurity.' However, now that Parker and Stone went there with Trump, Marx told Wired that he's frustrated by how more comedians aren't doing the same. 'I think that is the card to play … and I am frustrated that more of the comedians that I love on the left haven't leaned into that really harsh attack of him,' Marx told Wired. SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA - JULY 24: (L-R) Matt Stone and Trey Parker speak onstage at Comedy Central ... More Adult Animation: "South Park", "Beavis & Butt-Head", and "Digman" Panel during 2025 Comic-Con International: San Diego at San Diego Convention Center on July 24, 2025 in San Diego, California. (Photo by) Trey Parker Briefly Addressed The White House Criticism At San Diego Comic Con While media outlets lauded the South Park Season 27 premiere episode, White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers slammed it in a statement to media outlets on Friday. 'This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention,' Rogers said in the statement (via Variety). 'President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country's history – and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump's hot streak.' In his reaction by the White House during a San Diego Comic Con panel on Friday (via Deadline), Parker simply responded in a not-so-sincere manner, saying, 'We're terribly sorry.' In addition, Parker and Stone assured viewers that, in spite of the release of a promotional reel for Season 27 earlier this year, fans will still get topical episodes of South Park and none of them are pre-packaged. 'You seriously think we made a bunch of shows ahead of time and baked them for later? We're not doing any of that,' Parker exclaimed, to which Stone quipped, 'No politics. None of that s---.' South Park Season 27 is new on Comedy Central on cable and streaming on Paramount+.
