Evening Daily News Update: July 2, 2026

Good evening doomers, and welcome to your Evening Daily News Update for Thursday, July the 2nd, 2026. Happy 69th Birthday to The Excellence of Execution, the Best There Is, The Best There Was, and the Best There Ever Will Be, the Hitman, the GOAT, the pride of Canada, he without depravity… Bret Hart. Team USA laid the smackdown on Bosnia and Herzegovina to advance to the Round of 16, even with a red card putting us at a disadvantage for the last 40+ minutes of play. Tonight, more Round of 32 action, as well as TNA Impact, WWE Main Event, JCW Lunacy, and ROH Honor Club!

Not much new content to push on you (Tuesday and Thursday seem to be the typical “off” days), which means plenty of time for you to check out Phrederic’s recap of this week’s episode of WWE Evolve.

TNA Impact Preview:
With TNA Slammiversary behind us (and we bid farewell to Mike Santana), we have the following scheduled: First round matches in the Knockouts TV Title Tournament, a Contender’s Match for the X-Division Title, appearances from new Champions Nic Nemeth and Xia Brookside, and MORE!

YouTube Spotlight: Best of Saturday Night – July 1996!
Hop back on The Mothership for more WCW action from the summer of 1996. Sting, Lex Luger and Randy Savage prepare for Bash at the Beach and their showdown with The Outsiders. Plus, action featuring Rey Mysterio, Lord Steven Regal, The Steiner Brothers and more!

As always, enjoy yourselves, keep it clean and come out gooning over your favorite Denny’s waitress. – GH
