NXT recap & reactions: On This Day – Cageside Seats

NXT returned last night (Feb. 3) from the Capitol Wrestling Center (CWC) in Orlando, Florida. You can find the results at the live blog here. On This Day The NXT title match for TakeOver: Vengeance Day was set this week. Royal Rumble winner Edge let the participants know he’ll be watching closely. Finn Bálor made his title match with Pete Dunne official after Pete Dunne was insisting on it in a promo. And while it should be a banger given the in-ring talent of both men, it doesn’t feel big. O’Reilly vs. Bálor felt bigger than this one. I’m not entirely sure why either. Pete Dunne is great and has held multiple championships in the NXT system. It’s not that he’s not a legit contender. Maybe it’s because he no longer has Pat McAfee putting him over. Dunne is an average promo...

Morgan Wallen Wont Be Eligible for 2021 ACM Awards After Racial Slur – Billboard

First-round voting for the ACM Awards  has already concluded (Jan. 19-26). Second-round voting is set for Feb. 10-17. Final-round voting is set for March 17-24. The awards will air April 18 on CBS. Wallen was likely to receive several major nominations at the upcoming show, including male artist of the year, single of the year and song of the year. His current album, Dangerous: The Double Album, which has ruled the Billboard 200 for the past three weeks, would not have been eligible: It was released on Jan. 8, too late to meet the ACM Awards' Dec. 31 eligibility cut-off. But Wallen would have been eligible with his hit songs "More Than My Hometown" and "7 Summers." Soon after the ACM announced its ruling, the rival CMA Awards announced that it is removing Wallen's digital content from its...

Misinformation between COVID vaccine and infertility raises alarm – msnNOW

New York — As widespread misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines and infertility took hold on social media, the rumors spread as rapidly as the virus itself and scared some women from getting a shot. Jay Huber, a fertility doctor in New Orleans, is asked daily by his patients if the vaccine causes infertility. He said there's no evidence of that happening. "I think it's important to debunk the myths because patients should have access to accurate information," Huber told CBS News. So then, what is the biggest misconception? "This concept that the vaccination will actually train the human immune system to create an antibody that would cross-react with the vital placenta protein, which would ultimately cause infertility," he said. The unfounded fear, Huber said, is that an antibody would not...

Marshall says doctors made the discovery because the lymph nodes seen under the arm are included on a mammogram...

Oregon to begin vaccinating prisoners against COVID-19 after judges order | TheHill – The Hill

Oregon will begin vaccinating its inmate populations against COVID-19 after a federal judge ruled Tuesday that the state's prison population should be prioritized, Oregon Live reported. The ruling bumps up prisoners into phase 1a, group 2 of the vaccine rollout, giving them the same priority access as those living in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities. Previously, only correctional facility employees were included in this category, according to the Oregon Health Authority. "Our constitutional rights are not suspended during a crisis," Stacie Beckerman, a federal magistrate judge, wrote in her Tuesday opinion, The New York Times reported.
