The Young Bucks Mimic Cody Rhodes' Statement About ‘Respect'
On last night's episode of AEW Dynamite, when the former AEW World Tag Team Champions showed up for their match, their nameplates did not even read their names. It was just a default placeholder that said, 'Stat' followed by 'Talent Name,' and 'Social Media.'
Recently, former AEW Star and current WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes was interviewed by The Ringer. During the interview, The American Nightmare shared that he felt disrespected during his time in All Elite Wrestling, and that was why he chose to leave the company.
'There's clearly bad blood. But there's also clearly respect and love. In the end, the way I see it is, if I felt disrespected ever at WWE, that's one thing. That's a company that was built…that's the Yankees. That's the flagship of it all. If I ever felt [disrespected] there, I was a number on a sheet, maybe, but feeling disrespected at something I built with my friends. That we built. Feeling disrespected there, I wouldn't stand for it,' Cody Rhodes said.
After how things went on AEW Dynamite, the Young Bucks shared a similar sentiment. The brothers took to Twitter to share that the lack of respect hurts them the most.
'You know what hurts the most is the… the lack of respect. You know? That's what hurts the most,' The Young Bucks tweeted.
The Bucks' treatment in AEW is a storyline, but former TNA boss Scott D'Amore does see them leaving for WWE down the line.

WWE SummerSlam Night 2 live results: Full card, start time, winners and losers, updates and highlights
WWE SummerSlam Night 2 closes out WWE SummerSlam 2025 weekend with a bang, ending the two-night extravaganza with a stacked card on Sunday evening at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. After a busy Night 1, the momentum only ramps up more for the second half of the festivities. Sunday's card features six title matches, with all but two featuring extra stipulations. The hotly-anticipated main event rematch between Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena and former champion Cody Rhodes takes place under "Street Fight" rules. The last time Cena and Rhodes met was at WrestleMania 41 in April, when Cena dethroned Rhodes in his first match as a heel. Cena appeared to turn back to his classic babyface ways on this past Friday's "WWE SmackDown," however the question remains whether Cena's words were sincere or simply another ruse to distract Rhodes all over again. The Women's World title will once more be contested in a triple-threat match, as new champion Naomi defends against two of the former champions involved in this year's WrestleMania classic, Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley. They won't be the only women competing for gold though, as Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria battle it out in their bad-blood trilogy for Lynch's Intercontinental crown. There will be no DQs and no count-outs in that one, and if Valkyria loses, she'll be unable to ever challenge for the title again. Men's Intercontinental Champion Dominick Mysterio also be defends his belt against former champ AJ Styles after weeks of shenanigans on "WWE Raw." Then, rounding out the chaos, United States Champion Solo Sikoa will be locked in a Steel Cage for the latest chapter in his rivalry with Jacob Fatu. Yet all of these matches will surely pale in comparison to the WWE Tag Team title match. It will be Tables, Ladders and Chairs when the champions, The Wyatt Sicks, look to overcome five other teams. Here's a look at Saturday's full WWE SummerSlam Night 2 match card, which kicks off at 6 p.m. ET on Peacock: Undisputed WWE Championship, Street Fight: John Cena (c.) vs. Cody Rhodes Women's World Championship: Naomi (c.) vs. Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley Intercontinental Championship: Dominick Mysterio (c.) vs. AJ Styles United States Championship, Steel Cage match: Solo Sikoa (c.) vs. Jacob Fatu Women's Intercontinental Championship, No DQ match: Becky Lynch (c.) vs. Lyra Valkyria WWE Tag Team Championship, TLC match: The Wyatt Sicks (Dexter Lumis and Joe Gacy) (c.) vs. Andrade and Rey Fenix vs. #DIY (Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa) vs. Fraxiom (Axiom and Nathan Frazer) vs. Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley and Chris Saban) vs. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) Follow all of the action from SummerSlam Night 2 with Uncrowned's live coverage below:

YAHOO POLL: Has Fantastic Four revived the MCU for you?
The Fantastic Four: The First Steps had its world premiere on Monday (21 July) night and the first reactions to the film were generally positive. The film was under immense pressure and expectations, no doubt due to its troubled cinematic history. Its first iteration under 20th Century Fox in 2005 was a flop. A reboot in 2015, also under 20th Century Fox, reimagined Marvel's First Family as a dark, gritty comic book film but it didn't fare better either. Other polls YAHOO POLL: Will you take Wegovy to lose weight? YAHOO POLL: Is the key to a good life in Singapore emotional and mental well-being? YAHOO POLL: Should Astronomer CEO Andy Byron have resigned? However, Marvel can finally breathe a sigh of relief as, despite a steep drop at the box office in its second weekend, the film is sitting well with critics. If anything, the fact that it retained the top position in the second weekend is a testament to the strength of the film. Fantastic Four has garnered an 86 per cent rating with critics and a 92 per cent rating with audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. If it matters, Fantastic Four scored higher than James Gunn's Superman – which was released earlier in July. So, we want to hear from you – Has Fantastic Four revived the MCU for you?

Inglewood residents complain of noise from HARD Summer music festival, Lady Gaga concert
Inglewood residents are once against raising concerns over the booming noise brought on by the HARD Summer music festival, which is this time paired with Lady Gaga playing right across the street. Tens of thousands of fans flocked to Hollywood Park, next to SoFi Stadium for the HARD Summer festival and just steps away from the Kia Forum, where Lady Gaga is closing out the Los Angeles leg of her "The Mayhem Ball Tour." "I just love the energy, trying to have a good time, going to have fun," said Armando Alvarez, one of the thousands in Inglewood on Saturday for the music. "It doesn't matter where I am, just trying to have an adventure and go with the flow." While some concertgoers like Alvarez love the vibes in Inglewood, some residents are already fed up with the dueling performances. "It just sounded like a lot of banging, a lot of cheering and a lot of loud drumming," said Latrice Bates. She lives just down the street from SoFi Stadium and recalls the impact last year's HARD Summer festival had on her son. "He tosses and turns. He wakes up and says he can't sleep," Bates said. Last year, complaints came from as far as the South Bay, including places like El Segundo and Redondo Beach. City officials in the area reported more than 100 noise complaints from the festival, which led them to ban performances from the SoFi's American Airlines Plaza. Inglewood Mayor James Butts said that he wants the city to be an entertainment hub, but promised that this year's event would differ from last year's. "Last year, what happened was the main stage was American Airlines Plaza, 50 feet elevated from the floor of SoFi, and it was facing west and that, combined with atmospheric conditions, allowed the bass frequencies to run along the clouds," Butts said. He said that a changeup in where speakers were located, along with a newly-implemented concert curfew to coincide with the city curfew of 10 p.m., should help lessen residents' concerns. "It ran over last year. It will not run over this year," he said. "If I have to pull the plug myself, it will end at 10 o'clock." Prior to this weekend, HARD Summer event planners said that they were aware of last year's complaints, and that "extensive efforts" were taken "to mitigate sound levels with operational changes." Despite these promises from city officials and event organizers, some people living in the South Bay still took to social media to comment on the sound from the events, which some said they planned on reporting once again.
