Billie Kay and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson have been friends for some time now. Their friendship continues to grow as Kay reps The Rock for Wrestlemania 37. Kay hopped on Twitter to share a custom pair of socks she had made for the event. The socks feature an image of The Rock, drawn in cartoon form, with one eyebrow raised behind a pair of shades.

Of course, The Rock himself had to respond to the tweet. “Time to shine, BK,” he responded. “Electrify ‘em…⚡️💪🏾 #WrestleMania.” Kay competed in the Tag Team Turmoil match Saturday night. That fight determined the new number one contenders that will challenge WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. Kay will team with Carmella, going up against Lana and Naomi, Natalya and Tamina Snuka, Liv Morgan, and Ruby Riott, and Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose.

The night also featured Bad Bunny and Damian Priest vs. The Miz and John Morrison. Bad Bunny’s debut in the wrestling scene got the internet going. Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler will be facing Natalya and Tamina tonight. It looks like those The Rock socks didn’t help Kay’s case when it came to winning the championship. 

Former NFL player Phillip Adams killed himself on Thursday after committing mass murder in South Carolina on Wednesday Night. Adams killed Dr. Robert Lesslie and the man’s wife, as well as his two grandchildren who were ages five and nine. There were two workers on-site at the time and one of them was killed on the scene while another, 38-year-old Robert Shook, was brought to the hospital where he was fighting for his life.

According to Yahoo Sports!, Shook passed away from his injuries, which now means Adams killed six people during the incident. It’s a truly senseless tragedy that has affected so many lives, and it is truly unfortunate that so many innocent people were taken from us.

In the aftermath of Adams’ actions, his family has allowed officials to test him for CTE which is a brain disease that has been closely associated with football. The long-lasting effects of hits to the head have been studied for quite some time and if Adams did have CTE, then it could very well explain what led him to commit such atrocities.

Test results could take months although in the interim, we send our condolences to all of those who have lost loved ones in this tragedy.

Several White Lives Matter rallies are taking place across the nation today, and Americans are on edge. In some places, counter-protests are being planned as well. Some of these rallies are being pushed by the KKK, one example being in Southern California. In Huntington Beach, located in Orange County nearly 1 hour outside of Los Angeles, a rally will take place that was organized by the Loyal White Knights of the Klu Klux Klan. The city has officially planned a counter-protest and has released a statement condemning the KKK’s rally. 

“We unequivocally condemn white nationalism and the racist ideology promoted by the Ku Klux Klan. While we acknowledge the rights of all Americans — even the vilest racists out there — to express their opinions, we want to loudly and clearly state that the views expressed by the KKK and other white nationalist groups do not reflect the views of Orange County’s residents or elected officials,” reads a statement from Orange County Officials. 

“Our rich diversity makes Orange County and Huntington Beach stronger and better. We join the Huntington Beach City Council in condemning white supremacy and applaud it for planning a series of pro-diversity events to counter the disgusting message being promoted by the KKK and other organizers of the White Lives Matter rally this weekend.”

There are also White Lives Matter protests going down in Fargo, North Dakota, Raleigh and Asheville, North Carolina, Columbus, Ohio, and more.

Derrick Jaxn built a brand off of being a relationship guru offering sound advice to women and men on being faithful. Unfortunately, he didn’t even follow his own words and was later exposed for cheating on his wife. He owned up to it but that wasn’t enough for people to forget about the scandal.

Cam’ron, in particular, has been hounding Jaxn over the last week from an apparent derogatory comment he left under the Harlem rapper’s page. Cam unleashed a scathing rant against Jaxn, comparing him to Waldo from Family Matters, among other things. Jaxn never responded but Cam isn’t one to simply let go of things without having the final say.

On Friday, Jaxn, like many others, shared a tribute to X on his Instagram page. Cam was not pleased about this and continued to call out the YouTuber. “This n***a been low since he got caught cheating. Now he wanna resurface with this post. I know/knew X personally. He don’t fuck wit ya kind homie,” he wrote. “Don’t try and use the sympathy card n***a. FOH go figure out how to lie, trick more woman and shit on n***as on ya own n***a.”

Artists like Slim Thug and T.I. co-signed the statement in the comment section but when it landed on TheShadeRoom’s page, that’s when Jaxn fired back. “Big homie, you acting like I cheated on you,” he wrote in response to Cam’s comment. “This ain’t the type of event to use to voice your hurt feelings about me. Respect this brother’s legacy and his family more than you’re doing right now.” 

Cam never actually specified what Jaxn did exactly to warrant this type of tension between them. In having the last word of the situation, the Dipset leader revealed that Jaxn was sitting on his high horse at the time Cam and JuJu split. “You shoulda never never tried to talk crazy when me and my ex broke up. Our time was just up. I ain’t get caught cheating, lying etc. you da biggest cloutchaser I seen n***a,” Cam said, adding that Jaxn’s only replied to him because TheShadeRoom is watching. 

“Somebody shoulda told you how I play,” Cam continued. “And fuck outta here wit the ‘mans legacy’ shit you don’t care. You just looking for something to post where people don’t remind you of the foul n***a you are Waldo.”
