Big Show hints at WWE Return

Big Show hasn’t been seen in a WWE ring since Sept. 4, when he battled Braun Strowman in a barbaric Steel Cage Match on Monday Night Raw and was actually thrown through the structure by The Monster Among Men.

The giant would require surgery to his right hip following that perilous encounter, but as has been the case throughout the behemoth’s legendary career, he won’t stay down for long.

Just two days before his birthday, The World’s Largest Athlete tweeted a video during a therapeutic bike ride, hinting that his return to the ring could happen sooner than you think.

“If there’s such a thing as bicycle torture, I’m committing it right now,” Big Show quipped to his 2.5 million Twitter followers.

“I’m slamming about 390 pounds down on this bike, and it’s going to be a crumpled pile of metal and rubber when I’m done with it. Giant return coming soon.”

While we can’t help but feel sorry for Big Show’s bike, the idea of The World’s Largest Athlete coming back to WWE is pretty exciting.

How Toxic Friends Ruin Your Romantic Relationship

How Toxic Friends Ruin Your Romantic Relationship

“At least I have my friends!”, that’s the phrase that you often say to yourself after a breakup. And that’s absolutely common, as your friends are always there to help you to survive when your romantic relationship came crashing down.

Picture – Supplied

But have you ever thought that your friends may be the actual reason causing your breakups? Yep, you may have toxic friends and they may be ruining your relationship right now.

“Are my friends toxic?”, you may wonder, and we can help you with figuring it out. We offer you to check out our list of toxic friends signs.

 

Signs of Toxic Friends

 

1.  Your friends are not accepting your choice of a partner. Sometimes they might be right but if they don’t approve any of your partners, it might be one of the signs of toxic friends. If you have doubts, think whether you always pick online dating partners of a certain type or all of them are different. In the second case – you’re having toxic friends.

 

2.  Your friends are trying to compete with your partner over your attention. While you can understand it, as you’ve devoted more time to your friends when you were free, but aren’t your friends supposed to be happy for you? Your friends should allow you dedicate as much time to your partner as you want… if they aren’t toxic friends.

 

3.  When you are talking about your relationship, your friends focus on the negative aspects of your partner. You can see it in their faces. They are simply ignoring you when you are talking about how good your partner is, but whenever you say that your partner offended you in some way, they are all ears.

 

How Toxic Friends Ruin Your Relationship

 

Those three points are quite enough for you to get the picture, but do they actually manage to ruin your relationship? There certain ways that you are about to evaluate now.

 

1.  Not knowing your date quite well, they start telling you that he or she is no good. You know, something like “You are the best partner for him/her, but you could find someone better”. It sounds quite innocent, but that phrase gives your toxic friends a possibility to slowly poison you against your partner.

 

2.  Whenever your partner is around, your friends start talking about your exes. Of course, they are focusing on the positive aspects of your exes. Your past relationships is a sensitive topic.

Hearing positive things about your exes your partner would start feeling somehow inferior comparing to them. That might lead to thoughts that he or she is not good enough for you, which in turns may lead to your breakup.

 

3.  Are your friends trying to flirt with your partner? Sooner or later they are going to tell you that your partner was showing his or her affection.

While you should talk to your partner about that, the very first thing you should do is to ask your friend why he or she was flirting with your partner in the first place. Of course, your friend would tell you that he or she was trying to check your partner, but you know that you didn’t ask him or her to do that.

 

How to Deal with Toxic Friends

 

When you are sure that your friends are toxic, the best thing you can do is getting rid of them. It’s not as hard as you may think. All you need to do is to ignore their advice.

Give it some time, and your toxic friends will disappear from your life. If you want to get rid of them faster, you can tell them to stop nosing into your relationship.

It will lead to scandal, but who cares if the final result is the absence of the toxic friends in your life.

GOMBWE Too Big For HICC

GOMBWE Too Big For HICC

History has been set, a high level of greatness has been reached as Gombwe finally arrived in a gothic black outfit which matched with a traditional rod in hand.

Picture – Bustop TV

The much-hyped album launch made the Zimdancehall king Winky D join the duo – Oliver Mtukudzi and Jah Prayzah in proving that HICC is shrinking as our local music industry is growing.

Indeed the Gafa never disappoints but always surprises as no one anticipated that a Zimdancehall artist can have the finest and natural voices of Vabati vaJehovha in one song. 

Well! That led to a dramatic shift from an all black Gombwe outfit to an Apostolic white garment as ‘Dzika Ngirozi’ was introduced – from a Guardian Spirit to a Divine Angel and the two also mean Gombwe in Shona.

Picture – Bustop TV

This is the majority’s favourite at the moment, Highway Code is another track which is being liked more.The album’s title track Gombwe is still infiltrating in people’s minds – the literature (lyrical content) can make up a set-piece for literature students and even fail to paraphrase. 

Such originality made HICC roar in the name of Gombwe as Winky D proved that the long wait for a new album was worth it.

Genius ‘Ginimbi’ Kadungure had to give a monetary value to such creativity by a bid of $20 000 which made another business tycoon Albert Ndabambi get his copy for $30 000.

‘My guy’ it only took Ginimbi a few minutes to realize that Gombwe is worth more and he made his final bid of $40 000 for a 12 tracks album. Gombwe is worthy $70 000.

Phathisani Sibanda, Abisher Palmer and Merciless set a good pace by moderating the arrival of Gombwe with so much vigour.

Picture – Bustop TV

Supporting artists complimented the quality of Winky D’s stage art. Live show performances have improved, the energy levels are just impressive let alone creative.

Jah Signal, Takura, Kinnah, Killer T and not forgetting Willom Tight’s son Gary who also kept the stage alive and tight.

South African based Buffalo Souljah also had his time on stage not as good as expected prior Kinnah came to the rescue to perform Gwenya.

Is it high time Winky D tried -FillUpNeshaz (#FUN)?

After the historic Harare gig, the next day Gombwe invaded NUST campus in Bulawayo. The institute’s SRC tagged the bash as the best ever on campus.

Ronda Rousey arrives in WWE, crashes Royal Rumble 2018

Everyone knew the first-ever Women’s Royal Rumble Match would make history. Few knew it would involve iconic mixed martial artist Ronda Rousey.

Legendary mixed martial artist Ronda Rousey made a surprise appearance to stare down Women’s Royal Rumble Match winner Asuka, SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair and Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss: Courtesy WWE Network.

The former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion made her presence felt immediately following the 30-woman over-the-top-rope melee, walking to the ring to confront Women’s Royal Rumble Match winner Asuka, SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte and Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss.

Rousey, who was wearing the jacket of her close friend and namesake, the late WWE Hall of Famer “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, did not say anything at first, but pointed directly to the WrestleMania sign hanging in the rafters.

When she offered a handshake to Asuka, her hand was slapped away. A few words were exchanged before Rousey pointed to the sign once more. She then waved goodbye to the three Superstars in the ring. 

Outside, Rousey shared a handshake with Raw Commissioner Stephanie McMahon and then exited. 

Women’s Royal Rumble Pict by WWE

Ronda Rousey explains her lifelong dream of becoming a WWE Superstar and her admiration for WWE Hall of Famer “Rowdy” Roddy Piper before “dropping a big fat hint” about her intentions for WrestleMania 34.

According to a story published by ESPN.com following Rousey’s appearance, the former MMA star has reportedly come to terms with WWE to be a full-time Superstar.

“This is my life now. First priority on my timeline for the next several years.

This is not a smash-and-grab; this is not a publicity stunt,” Rousey was quoted as saying. “When I first met with Triple H, I told him, ‘There are other things I can do with my time that’ll make way more money, but I won’t enjoy nearly as much.’ ”

Big Brother Naija Day 1: The Night That Was

As the sun rises on the first official day of Big Brother Naija, we take a look at the eventful hours before.

 
 

Not even an hour in, Biggie, just as everyone was relaxing and enjoying themselves, he announced that there would be a rapid-fire “Eviction” and six Housemates had to exit the House.

1517180293 34 evictees

This left many at a loss for words, some smelt a rat and others just moved along swiftly. 

Not even an hour later, again as the Housemates began to bond, Biggie boomed that there would be a challenge for HOH (Head of House)

After much time and perseverance, Ifu Ennada and Cee-C came out on top and will battle it out for the title of HOH today.

 

Teddy A, Miracle, K. Brule and BamBam began to come out their shells and slowly but surely friendships began to form

As for the 6 “Evictees” that were left to face their own challenge of keeping hushed tones in the Arena Games room, their fate and reward will also be decided today.

Miracle

Much of the rest of the first evening in the House was spent just chatting and getting to know one another.

Wow, so far there has not been a dull moment in the House. As the plot thickens, we wait and see what Day one holds for you.

ED Davos Scarf hits the Market..Here is How you Can Get it

With temperatures in Davos freezing cold, Zimbabwe’s President ED Mnangagwa showed off his country’s national colours by donning a bright scarf.

President Mnangagwa

Whilst little is known about the new President’s fashion preferences, the bold coloured scarf might have given us a hint about his style – he is fearless to try out new trends.

Many might have come to know of the scarf a few days ago, but research done by Zimbuzz indicate that the accessory has been around for at least three years.

The piece of clothing is being manufactured by a company called Chjaa Enterprises.

“Very proud moment for Chjaa to see our President, HE Emmerson D Mnangagwa and the Zimbabwean delegation for the World Economic Forum in Davos wearing our Zim Rocks Scarves.

This is a particularly important milestone for Chjaa given these scarves were launched 3 years ago. Today they have made their first appearance on the world stage,” read a post on the company’s official Facebook page.

The scarf retails at $15 dollars and you can get in touch with company on their Facebook Page Chjaa Enterprises
