Welcome to WWE SummerSlam, where...skipping the two-hour Kickoff Show is considered self-care?
Look, it's long. It's a haul.

used a real Romanian priest. We shot the master and he did the whole thing. So I think we’re married.”
Witcher Casting Scripts Leak, But the Showrunner Isn’t Worried
The casting scripts/sides for The Witcher Netflix series have been leaked, but showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich has reassured fans that what is contained in those scripts will not be making it into the show and that "all is ok in the #Witcher world."
Posted on Reddit, users found two scenes that both feature the sorceress Yennefer and, while they won't make it into the show, they may give fans a glimpse into how these roles will be portrayed.
The first scene follows Geralt of Rivia himself, as he and Yennefer prepare for a ball and he complains about not wanting to go to said ball. The second scene is a conversation between Yennefer and a "King" and Yennefer holds no punches in telling this King how she really feels.
