WWE SummerSlam 2018 Live Blog and Results
Welcome to WWE SummerSlam, where...skipping the two-hour Kickoff Show is considered self-care?
Look, it's long. It's a haul.
There are 13 matches. 14 if Elias actually gets in the ring with Bobby Lashley. There probably only needs to be six. And as usual, last night NXT put on a perfectly-executed, perfectly-timed TakeOver event that was concise and superb and probably soured all of us for the SummerSlam slog ahead. So lets make sure to hydrate. Maybe treat ourselves to our favorite food. Pacing is important. SummerSlam is a marathon, not a sprint.

Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder May Have Really Gotten Married While Filming Dracula
Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder might have actually gotten married by accident while filming Bram Stoker's Dracula back in 1992.
Speaking to EW, Ryder revealed director Francis Ford Coppola used a real Romanian priest while filming the movie's marriage scene. As such, Ryder believes the two actors may have accidentally tied the knot.
"We actually got married in Dracula," Ryder said. "No, I swear to god I think we’re married in real life. In that scene, Francis
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.

The Purge TV Series Costumes Bring DIY Horror to Life
Visiting the New Orleans set of the new Purge TV series - premiering September 4 on USA - I had a chance to speak to costume designer, Lauren Bott, to get the inside scoop on some of the new faces of fear we'll be seeing on the upcoming show. As you know, The Purge, as a franchise, doesn't have one look, as everyone who participates in the "holiday" can bring their own spark of madness to the proceedings. But there is one element these maniacal masks share.
"The most important factor is the DIY factor," Bott explained, showing off an array of new looks and costumes from the series on one of the show's sets. "They need to look like anyone can make them at home with simple supplies. And we also keep them super different because every single episode we've had there's been a big scene with multiple stunt guys, so it's just about making sure they can each look scary and cool and interesting. While also staying true to The Purge."
