Life is Fighting by Kevin Robert Kesar aka Karrion Kross will be published by ECW Press on August 5, 2025.Karrion Kross's physique - a hulking 6'4", 265 pounds - and the unbridled intensity in his eyes is enough on its own to inspire fear in opponents. Factor in his unique combination of precision and abject ruthlessness, and it becomes clear that anyone stepping in the ring with Kross is in immediate danger. A master of catch wrestling and sambo, Kross has done battle around the world. He boasts an array of devastating suplexes, including his dreaded Doomsday Saito. And if that's not enough, he's more than happy to put opponents to sleep with the Kross Jacket.For all his menacing exterior, the human being behind the character - whose real name is Kevin Kesar - is a soft-spoken, highly thoughtful individual with a powerful story. Recognized by peers for his exceptional love for his profession, Kesar endured numerous setbacks on the way to achieving his dream. Along with his wife, Elizabeth - known in WWE as Scarlett - he has repeatedly found the fortitude to bounce back stronger, personally and professionally. This book is full of fascinating stories, heartache, humor, and even some advice for those with similar aspirations. Readers will be immersed into Kesar's unique mindset as he pulls back the curtain on what the journey (and the fight) to the top of sports entertainment is really like.Kevin Robert Kesar is a professional wrestler for World Wrestling Entertainment on USA Network & FOX. A performer, actor, martial artist, and producer of the short film Blue Evening, he's entertained and competed worldwide for more than a decade. Although he resides in Orlando, he's seen many worlds and offers very intimate and personal stories through his multicultural background as a proud New York-born traveler.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Huldeblyke stroom in vir die WWE-legende Hulk Hogan, wat in die ouderdom van 71 dood is. Nooddienste het 'n oproep van sy huis in Clearwater, Florida om 10-uur Donderdagoggend ontvang oor 'n hartstilstand-geval, en hy is later in die hospitaal dood verklaar. Hogan, oftewel Terry Bollea, was die grootste professionele stoeier van die 1980's en '90's en het roem bereik in die World Wrestling Entertainment, of WWE formaat. Hy het ook omstredenheid veroorsaak en is uit die WWE heldesaal geskop oor rassistiese aanmerkings. Hy is hertoegelaat in 2020, toe hy aktief geword het in Donald Trump se “Make America Great Again”-beweging. Hogan het in 2012 met die BBC gepraat. Luister self.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has called on her Chinese counterpart to ensure more balanced trade with Europe as current relations between Brussels and Beijing have reached “an inflection point.” Von der Leyen, along with European Council President António Costa, was in Beijing on Thursday for the EU–China summit.Hulk Hogan, the American sports and entertainment star who made professional wrestling a global phenomenon and supported Donald Trump for president, has died at the age of 71, World Wrestling Entertainment said on Thursday. "WWE is saddened to learn WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan has passed away. One of pop culture's most recognizable figures, Hogan helped WWE achieve global recognition in the 1980s," WWE said on X. It gave no cause of death.

In this episode of "IPS DEPROGRAM," your host delves into wide array of topics, starting with basic troubleshooting for streaming and reviewing listener comments. The show highlights ongoing challenges with platforms like YouTube, noting instances where live streams were shut down due to false flaggings. One such incident occurred after a comment from "Paradox Moronics" about "Truman Show-like tactics" being experienced in daily life, leading the host to reflect on these "funny coincidence[s]" and "throttling". The host shares personal anecdotes of seemingly orchestrated daily annoyances, like credit card machines screwing up or rude parking, which, while coincidental, hint at a broader awareness of environmental threats and potential paranoia or suggestibility.The discussion moves to the controversial figure Liver King, who has reportedly been arrested in Texas following "unhinged posts" and threats against Joe Rogan. The host describes Liver King's bizarre behavior, including posing with a wolf's head and an automatic rifle, and questions whether the ongoing saga is "scripted theater" or "Cywar," comparing it to World Wrestling Entertainment. A listener notes that "Liver King is almost an anagram of Elvis King", adding to the speculative nature of the persona.Regarding the "Why Aliens Reek" portion of the title, the provided sources do not contain any information or discussion about aliens or why they might reek. The podcast primarily focuses on media fakery, psychological operations, and the manipulation of public perception, often referring to "God constructs" as a new form of monotheism.The episode underscores the pervasive nature of media fakery and psychological operations (PSYOPs). The host asserts that "The power of the lie needs to be emphasized here. Lies are powerful in this world. I call it the lie world order for a reason". This central theme drives the host's mission with the IPS Morning D program: to "deprogram those of us who are paying attention". A key initiative is the development of PSYOP trading cards, envisioned as a "paradigm shifter" to "infiltrating Trutherville with something that they have somehow missed this entire time, which is the truth about media fakery and how deep the rabbit hole really does go". These cards are inspired by the Illuminati trading cards by Steven Jackson and are aimed at a similar collector base, building out sales channels on platforms like YouTube and Amazon.The host introduces the concept of "parallel media", distinguishing the IPS Think Tank from both mainstream and alternative media. "We've created this third branch of media. You've got the mainstream alternative, but now we have a perspective that isn't somewhere in the middle, but it's completely outside of their box that doesn't include in our assessment any of the propaganda lies". This approach is about identifying "the big conspiracy that the conspiracy theorists have missed," which is the "meta-script" that shapes worldview globally.A significant portion of the discussion emphasizes the importance of skepticism and the "fake until proven real" methodology. The host argues for becoming an "informed disbeliever" rather than a low-information believer. When analyzing events presented by media, the approach is rigorous: "If there's any hint of fakery, your assumption must be zero. Assume zero. Assume nothing. But assume a body count of zero". This applies to events like 9/11 and the Kenosha incident involving Kyle Rittenhouse, whom the host views as a "total construct" and a "manufactured hero". Evidence like police interactions during the Kenosha riots and Rittenhouse's connection to Greta Thunberg and the Proud Boys are cited as reasons to suspect the event was a PSYOP.The podcast also addresses "low-information claims" often associated with "Trutherville," such as the belief that animals like pandas or gorillas are fake.

The latest MOCK DRAFT has nearly every WWE Superstar who has ever won a title in World Wrestling Entertainment up for grabs, grouped together by championship, and somewhat randomized. Which wrestlers will we end up with for our rosters?

IRVIN MUCHNICK is author, most recently, of CONCUSSION INC: The End of Football As We Know It — his third book. He is a widely published journalist whose work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, Sports Illustrated, People, and many other major magazines and newspapers. He has been interviewed on forums as diverse as Fox News' O'Reilly Factor and National Public Radio's Fresh Air with Terry Gross.In 2007, Irv published WRESTLING BABYLON: Piledriving Tales of Drugs, Sex, Death, and Scandal – a collection of his writings on pro wrestling behind the scenes. Soon thereafter, the sensational double murder/suicide of World Wrestling Entertainment's Chris Benoit brought WRESTLING BABYLON to the attention of Congressional investigators and led to the true-crime book CHRIS & NANCY: The True Story of the Benoit Murder-Suicide and Pro Wrestling's Cocktail of Death, published in 2009. Irv's books and blog writings moved to the center of scrutiny of WWE co-founder and former chief executive Linda McMahon's unsuccessful 2010 U.S. Senate candidacy in Connecticut on the Republican ticket.Over the last four years, Irv's work has helped elevate the story of widespread traumatic brain injury and its consequences for National Football League players and other professional and amateur athletes. His reporting has identified Dr. Joseph Maroon – medical director of WWE, team neurosurgeon for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and a widely quoted NFL consultant – as being among the key figures in manipulating research that was slow to identify and take seriously evidence of chronic traumatic encephalopathy. In the process, the $10-billion-a-year pro football industry was protected and NFL-affiliated doctors profited. The newest developments, including the suicide of retired player and NFL Players Association leader Dave Duerson, and the bargaining impasse between the NFL and the NFLPA, have increased public interest not just in the science of head injuries but also in how it is marketed by America's most popular sport, from the NFL level all the way down to the peewee leagues.Irvin Muchnick, who was assistant director of the National Writers Union from 1994 to 1997 and later a copyright litigation consultant, also is lead respondent of the landmark 2010 Supreme Court case Reed Elsevier v. Muchnick. Publishers Weekly calls the case “the central rights dispute of the digital age.” He blogs about writers' rights issues at http://freelancerights.blogspot.com.Irv can be contacted at info@muchnick.net.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
