Travis Scott could be on the verge of making his in-ring professional wrestling debut.
The Grammy nominated artist has made a number of high profile appearances in WWE over the last few months, most notably at WrestleMania 41 where he helped John Cena capture the WWE Championship from Cody Rhodes.
Insider X account WrestleVotes reported Thursday afternoon that Scott's next appearance could come at Money in the Bank on June 7 in Los Angeles. Mike Johnson of PWInsider meantime, has heard that something much substantial for Scott could be in the works for next month's annual Premium Live Event.
Amid speculation, we’re told WWE has plans for Travis Scott to appear at the Money in the Bank PLE on June 7th. Sources indicate this has been in the works since before WrestleMania.

"There's a belief in creative circles that musician Travis Scott will be available for Money In the Bank and there have been pitches for he and Cena teaming in either a tag match or six man tag of some sort," Johnson said. "Scott has been training off and on with Booker T in Texas."
Johnson went on to speculate that Cody Rhodes would be among the opponents for Cena and Scott, and that would certainly make sense from a storyline standpoint.
The American Nightmare has not been seen since his loss at WrestleMania 41, but he could return at any point in time. Perhaps as soon as Friday night's episode of SmackDown or Saturday Night's Main Event on May 24 in Tampa, Florida.

Final Fantasy Meets Dragon Quest In Legendary Crossover
What’s more iconic than Cloud wielding a Buster Sword? How about Cloud rocking Erdrick’s Armor and wrecking Dragon Quest monsters all in one event? That’s right, Square Enix has decided to gift us mere mortals a crossover between Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis and Dragon Quest Tact. This limited event runs from July 30 to August 6, and if you’re not hyped yet, you might want to check your gaming pulse. But what does this actually mean for you? Well, buckle up, because this crossover is more than just a gimmick. It’s packed with so much fan service that even Sephiroth might need a break from brooding to join in on the fun. The Chaos, The Loot, The Slimeocalypse First off, Final Fantasy VII Ever Crisis is about to host King Slime and his slimy gang because, apparently, even pixels deserve to meet their heroes. Players get to battle these absurdly charming enemies and earn event-exclusive gear worthy of both franchises. We’re talking Cloud stepping into Erdrick’s Armor and wielding what is unquestionably one of the most epic swords in gaming. Aerith, not to be outdone, is gracefully handed the Supreme Sage Garb because, you know, killing enemies and looking fabulous is her thing. And don’t even get me started on Sephiroth taking a cosplay detour as Psaro. Imagine one iconic villain dressing up as another. It’s meta. It’s chaotic. It’s everything we didn’t know we needed. Players, Prepare for Nostalgia Overload The crossover also throws in daily free draws, a boatload of loot, and arguably, a reason to ditch any other mobile games cluttering up your screen time. There’s something inherently rewarding about collecting crossover goodies that scream, “I was there when Square Enix decided Cloud needed an RPG glow-up with Dragon Quest-style flair.” Some highlights from the event include: Daily Free Ten Pulls (Spoiler Alert: Prepare for gacha heartbreak… and joy). Crossover Missions loaded with rewards like Red XIII’s Great Sabrecat Collar (think of it as drip for your furry companion). Event Bonuses that range from refined Mythril piles to rare crossover wallpapers that scream, “Yeah, I’m that gamer.” And, oh yeah, login bonuses stacked higher than a stack of pancakes at a chocobo-catered brunch. Why This Crossover Actually Slaps If you’re rolling your eyes at the idea of yet another crossover event, it’s time for a quick reality check. This isn’t just a lazy cash-grab with recycled assets and buzzwords. It’s a love letter to fans of both games, blending two legendary worlds into an experience that’s as ridiculous as it is satisfying. Think of it like a bizarre but beautiful RPG fever dream where Dragon Quest monsters challenge Final Fantasy heroes, and the only loser is anyone who missed out. Plus, when was the last time you saw King Slime try to flex on Aerith? Exactly. Is this Peak Mobile Gaming? Now, will this event cure all your gaming ailments? Probably not. Will it load up your plate with so much nostalgia and fan-service-packed chaos that even your backlog of unplayed games might get jealous? Absolutely. Square Enix’s crossover brilliance usually lies in its ability to unite wildly different fandoms and generate hype that turns even the most casual gamer into a midnight-grinding, loot-obsessed fan. And if that’s not peak mobile gaming, what even is? Final Thoughts Events like these are why gaming history has a vault packed with “Hype Levels Overload” moments. Whether you’re here for the loot, the cross-franchise cosplays, or just some good old-fashioned Dragon Quest monster smashing with your favorite FF cast, this event delivers on every front. Hot tip? Set your alarms. Grab your popcorn. And pray that RNG is in your favor for those 10 pulls. Trust me, you’ll want bragging rights when someone asks why Cloud suddenly looks like he walked out of a Dragon Quest cutscene. Remember, this party only lasts for a week. Don’t sleep on it, because King Slime certainly won’t. Be sure to visit Total Apex Gaming for more game-related news and content.
Insider Report Ties Yankees to Pirates Pitchers in Final Hours Before Deadline
With less than 48 hours to go until the 2025 MLB trade deadline, the New York Yankees are still flirting with the Pittsburgh Pirates over some pitching. According to insider Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the Yankees and Pirates are still discussing reliever David Bednar and starter Mitch Keller on Tuesday night. But while there’s interest in both arms, the Yankees might not like the price. “Bednar is a target. Keller interests them, too, but the price tag might discourage them,” Heyman reported Tuesday. That lines up with what we’ve seen from the Yankees so far this month. They’ve been aggressive in scouting relievers but cautious about overpaying, especially for pitchers under long-term control. Bednar, who has a 4.19 ERA and 16 saves in 2025, would fill a pressing need for a club that ranks near the bottom of the league in bullpen ERA for July. His late-inning experience and high ground-ball rate make him a logical fit. Keller, meanwhile, would be a luxury at this point, especially after Luis Gil’s impending return. The right-hander is having a bounce-back year for the Pirates, with a 3.56 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, and a team-leading 121 strikeouts in 125 innings. But he’s under team control through 2028, and Pittsburgh doesn’t appear eager to move him unless blown away. That’s likely where the Yankees’ caution kicks in. The team has shown a willingness to deal mid-tier prospects but has reportedly been hesitant to part with top-end talent like Cam Schlittler or Spencer Jones, especially for non-rental pieces. Still, the fact that conversations have occurred shows that even in the wake of Aaron Judge’s injury news, the Yankees remain active on both the bullpen and rotation fronts. The Yankees front office is casting a wide net. With time running out, names like Bednar and Keller remain firmly in the mix.
Oilers to Acquire a Top-Tier Goalie. An Official Trade Offer Is on the Table in a Blockbuster Deal
NHL players who will send their GM a 'thank you' card next summer
While it's possible a few moves will still occur in NHL free agency, most of the major wheeling and dealing is on pause. Here's a look at five players who will benefit the most this season from moves made by their general managers: New York Rangers right defenseman Adam Fox Fox was one of the top-producing defenseman in the league last season despite a revolving door of defensive partners next to him at five-on-five. To aid him, the Rangers signed Vladislav Gavrikov (seven years, $49M) with apparent goal of giving Fox the best defensive partner of his career. Gavrikov (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) was one of the best defensive defenseman in the league last season on the best regular-season defensive team (Los Angeles). If paired with Gavrikov, Fox could get increased minutes if the former King takes the toughest matchups. If split up, Fox will get the luxury of being matched against inferior opponents while Gavrikov takes the hardest minutes. Either way, that's a win for the former Norris Trophy winner. Carolina's wingers We're cheating a little bit here but with good reason. It's not really exactly where Carolina's new high-priced winger Nikolaj Ehlers (six years, $8.5 million AAV) will play — Carolina is likely to play him more often at five-on-five than he played in Winnipeg, where he was ninth in time-on-ice per game last season among forwards. Ehlers is an elite puck transporter who helped the Jets outscore opponents 100-55 at five-on-five the past two seasons, so at least one of Andrei Svechnikov, Seth Jarvis or Logan Stankoven will benefit from him. Montreal Canadiens right defenseman Lane Hutson Hutson (5-foot-9 and 162 pounds) will always have doubters because of his size. But some players transcend size, as Hutson did in an outstanding 60-assist rookie season in 2024-25. The Canadiens know that, in the right role, Hutson can do serious damage in creating offense at five-on-five and on the power play. Acquiring Noah Dobson, a 6-foot-4 right-handed-shot defenseman, will allow the Habs to keep Hutson in the ideal role. Dobson, playing a full season under HC Patrick Roy for the New York Islanders, put up his best career defensive metrics in high-danger chances against per 60 minutes (9.66) and expected goals against (2.29) in 70 or more games, according to Natural Stat Trick. Vegas Golden Knights Mark Stone Winger Mitch Marner's arrival could potentially give Stone a chance to take fewer shifts, play more games and be healthier come playoff time, when the Knights need his brand of two-way hockey to make up for Marner's history of playoff troubles. Stone, who has battled back problems for years, is 33 and on the back-nine of his career. The arrival of Marner has the potential to stretch out the effectiveness of the latter stages of his career. St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas Thomas has quietly become one of the more effective No. 1 centers in the league. His back-to-back 80-plus-point seasons are driven primarily by his speed and skill as a setup man. In free agency, St. Louis added centers Pius Suter and Nick Bjugstad. Bjugstad should be able to take harder matchups at five-on-five. Suter, meanwhile, proved to be an effective penalty killer in Vancouver last season. That should allow Thomas to spend fewer minutes on the penalty kill, where he had the worst expected goals against per 60 rate (10.84, per Natural Stat Trick) of any Blues penalty killer to play at least 20 minutes on the PK last season.
Fabrizio Romano drops overnight transfer update with huge implications for Liverpool & Isak deal
Orioles, Blue Jays pull off unique trade midway through doubleheader
The Toronto Blue Jays have acquired one of baseball's premier relievers to bolster their bullpen. In a trade with the Baltimore Orioles, Toronto is adding Seranthony Dominguez to its pitching staff, according to MLB.com's Keegan Matheson. While the move solidifies the Blue Jays' status as buyers, it's the timing of the transaction that stands out. The Orioles finished a 16-4 walloping of the Blue Jays just hours before the deal went down, and while it's not unheard of to see a player traded to a franchise his former team is visiting, the fact that the two teams will face off again Tuesday night at 6:35 PM EST makes this a truly unique swap. Dominguez may not suit up in his first official contest as a Blue Jay, but he will be switching clubhouses before the second half of the team's doubleheader. It won't take long for the veteran reliever to make an impact, either, as bullpen production has stood out for a Toronto team that has been dominating in most aspects of the game. In 43 appearances with the Orioles this season, Dominguez has posted a respectable 3.24 ERA over 41.2 innings. He hasn't quite returned to the impressive form he was in with the Phillies from 2018 to 2022, but the value is obvious for a team hoping to capture its third World Series in franchise history. The rebuilding Orioles acquired right-handed pitching prospect Juaron Watts-Brown, who was ranked as Toronto's 10th-best prospect in the latest MLB Pipeline team Top 30 Prospects list. The 23-year-old has gone 2-5 over 19 starts across High-A and Double-A this year, posting a combined 3.54 ERA while striking out 115 over 89 innings. As two teams heading in vastly different directions this season, it's a sensible move for both sides. Dominguez is an unrestricted free agent after this season, making him a rental for Toronto down the stretch. If Watts-Brown continues to show promise, though, the trade could ultimately be deemed a win for Baltimore.
