WWE

This weekend, WWE is throwing its annual “Biggest Party of the Summer” at SummerSlam. First held in 1988, SummerSlam is one of WWE’s five biggest Premium Live Events (PLE), along with Survivor Series, Royal Rumble, Money in the Bank, and WrestleMania. This is the first SummerSlam under the TKO banner, with Triple H fully in charge of creative.

After pinning Cody Rhodes and Money in the Bank, Solo Sikoa gets his shot at the Undisputed WWE Championship. As the new leader of the Bloodline, Sikoa can firmly establish himself as the “Tribal Chief” with a win against Rhodes on Saturday night. If he loses, there will be repercussions for the Bloodline. Would a Sikoa loss bring Roman Reigns back from his hiatus to straighten out his family?

Punk and McIntyre legitimately hate each other. These two have been making each other’s lives miserable for the last eight months. Now, they finally square off inside the ring in what should be the first of multiple matches.

Where to watch the 2024 Paris Olympics Closing Ceremony

After two weeks of competition, it's time to say goodbye to the 2024 Paris Olympics. These Olympic Games have provided dramatic moments, sensational athletic accomplishments, and nail-biting finishes. One of the major takeaways from these Olympics will be the return to form for Simone Biles. The U.S. gymnast finished her 2024 Olympics with four medals: three gold and one silver.

In the pool, Katie Ledecky became the most decorated female U.S. Olympian of all time. Ledecky won four medals, including two gold, which brings her total to 14. Luckily for her fans, Ledecky plans to keep swimming in future competitions. But the impending Closing Ceremony means the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics countdown has begun.

5 great Netflix kids movies to watch in the summer
A family of four stand next to each other and make awkward faces.

What a summer it's been for kids' movies. Inside Out 2 is breaking box office records every single day. The Pixar sequel became the fastest animated movie to cross the $1 billion threshold and could legitimately become the highest-grossing animated film of all time. Despicable Me 4 will not catch Inside Out 2's box office grosses, but the Minions are well on their way to becoming one of the most popular movies of 2024.

While animated movies are an excellent option for families, they only represent a portion of the movies offered to kids. Netflix has entire genres and subgenres dedicated to children, from comedies and dramas to fantasy and sci-fi. Below is a list of five kids movies to watch this summer.
