Randy Orton picked up a win over Drew McIntyre in a one on one match, thanks to Jelly Roll. As the match reached its final moments, McIntyre got distracted by Jelly Roll at ringside, giving Orton the perfect opening to hit an RKO and secure the victory.
After the match Logan Paul stormed the ring and floored Orton with a right hand, unleashing a series of punches. Jelly Roll quickly entered the ring, pulled Paul off Orton, and retaliated with a massive right hand of his own. However, McIntyre blindsided Jelly Roll with a brutal Claymore Kick and warned him that stepping into the ring made him a target. Adam Pearce, Nick Aldis, and several WWE officials rushed down to check on Jelly Roll and escort McIntyre to the back.

Later in the match, Rollins attempted a springboard Moonsault but appeared to injure his knee mid-air. He took a moment to speak with Paul Heyman and the referee as medical staff checked on him. Just as Rollins got back to his feet, Knight capitalized, hitting the BFT out of nowhere and pinning him for the win.
Goldberg vs. Gunther WW World Title Match
Gunther defeated Goldberg to retain the WWE World Title in a dramatic showdown.

As the referee rushed in and Goldberg went for the pin, Gunther narrowly kicked out.

'Drishyam 3' first draft finished; Jeethu Joseph pens climax under pressure - 'I had been under a lot of tension'
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Filmmaker Jeethu Joseph has revealed that he has finally completed writing the climax of the first draft for 'Drishyam 3', the highly anticipated third installment in the hit thriller franchise starring Mohanlal . Speaking at the inauguration of the Film and Drama Club at Nirmala College, Muvattupuzha, Jeethu shared how emotionally taxing the process had been for him. Yesterday, I finally felt that relief 'Last night, I wrote and completed the climax of 'Drishyam 3'. The first draft is now done. I had been under a lot of tension all this while,' he admitted. Juggling multiple projects — including Mirage with Asif Ali and Valathuvashathe Kallan — Jeethu said he would wake up at 3:30 AM daily to write, despite being physically and mentally drained. 'Yesterday, I finally felt that relief. While music played at the college, my mind wandered through 'Drishyam 1', 'Drishyam 2', and now 'Drishyam 3'. That was such a powerful feeling,' he said, clearly emotional. Shoot set to start in October With the first draft ready, the team is gearing up to begin the shooting of 'Drishyam 3' in October. Expectations are sky-high, as the earlier two parts became modern classics, earning widespread acclaim for their gripping narrative and Mohanlal's iconic performance as Georgekutty. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo Fans have been waiting eagerly to know how the story progresses in this final chapter.

Dismissing the idea, he said in an interview that it's not practical to shoot all versions at once. However, he confirmed that the producers are exploring a simultaneous release in multiple languages. 'Once I complete the script, I'll share it with the respective teams so they can adapt it as they did with the earlier films,' Jeethu explained. He reaffirmed that while changes may be made to suit each region's context, the core story remains his — just like in 'Drishyam 1' and 2.
