WWE and The Walt Disney Company are taking their business relationship to another level this December with a packed two-day event in Orlando, Florida. Heading straight to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex on December 14 and 15, the weekend will feature back-to-back shows combining WWE wrestling with major pop culture brands.
The fun starts on Monday, December 14, with the debut of the John Cena Classic, airing live on Netflix as a special edition of Monday Night RAW. The show will pit established stars from RAW and SmackDown against rising talent from NXT, with members of the newly introduced Club WWE program voting live during the broadcast to name the night&#8217;s top performer.
The action keeps going the next evening on Tuesday, December 15, when WWE puts on a special &#8220;Avengers: Doomsday&#8221; edition of Worlds Collide event tied directly into the upcoming Marvel Studios movie. That second night will bring together wrestlers from WWE, NXT, and Mexico&#8217;s AAA promotion.
Alongside the in-ring action, WWE and Fanatics will run a two-day fan festival called WWE World at the sports complex, giving fans chances to get autographs, take pictures, and buy exclusive crossover merchandise like special Marvel-themed championship belts. Fans wanting to attend both nights can grab two-day ticket packages starting with a presale on Thursday, November 12, followed by the general public sale on Friday, November 13 through Ticketmaster.

Rusev shared high praise for Penta, revealing heartwarming details about the former Intercontinental Champion&#8217;s quiet charity work away from the ring.
Speaking in an interview on TMZ&#8217;s Inside The Ring podcast, Rusev explained that while fans see Penta&#8217;s fierce persona on TV, he does extensive charity work in Mexico that he never brags about publicly.
According to Rusev, Penta has privately shared stories about how much he does to help homeless children and orphans back home:
&#8220;He&#8217;s a great guy. He&#8217;s helping so many kids in Mexico. You guys have no idea because he doesn&#8217;t talk about it, but in private conversations, (he revealed) he&#8217;s helped like tons of orphans, people with no homes. He buys them truckloads of toys and clothes and helps these kids. He&#8217;s a tremendous guy. If people get to know him, they&#8217;d love him as a person.&#8221;
Beyond his praise for Penta as a person, Rusev also noted that he is a huge fan of working with the luchador, adding that Penta eventually becoming a World Champion would be great for the wrestling business.

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis said on November 2 that they launched drones toward Saudi Arabia’s Dammam (King Fahd International) Airport, as well as an early-warning radar and a military transport aircraft at Jizan Airport. The group claimed the Dammam operation involved two drones over a 48-hour period and disrupted air traffic. Saudi Arabia has not confirmed the claims.
The Saudi-led coalition separately reported intercepting two drones over the Riyadh region on the same day.
This comes amid a series of Houthi attacks on Saudi airports and infrastructure in recent weeks, including earlier strikes on Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport and a prior incident at Dammam that killed two people.
WWE’s Crown Jewel premium live event is scheduled for this Saturday, November 7, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The show was moved from an outdoor stadium to the indoor ANB Arena (also known as The Venue) amid ongoing security concerns tied to the Houthi attacks.
The event is still set to proceed as planned, featuring matches including Roman Reigns vs. Sami Zayn and Liv Morgan vs. Chelsea Green for the Men&#8217;s and Women&#8217;s Crown Jewel Titles.

A big shakeup has hit the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship scene, but not in the way fans might have expected.
With El Desperado currently out of action due to an injury, AEW/CMLL star Mistico appeared alone at NJPW Power Struggle to officially vacate their championship belts.

In an unexpected move, Mistico tried to hand the vacant titles straight over to Taiji Ishimori and Robbie X. However, Ishimori flatly turned down the free handout. Instead of taking the easy way out, Ishimori pushed for a three-way match for the titles featuring his team, Ichiban Sweet Boys, and Mistico teaming with a new partner of his choice.
All of this happened right after Ishimori and Robbie X won the 2026 Super Junior Tag League tournament. The Unbound Co. duo finally finished the job after falling short in the finals back in 2025, defeating Robbie Eagles and Kosei Fujita.
