WWE star Zoey Stark vows comeback after suffering devastating knee injury

WWE star Zoey Stark broke her silence on Wednesday after a devastating injury left her unable to compete in a Money in the Bank qualifying match on "Monday Night Raw."

Stark suffered a knee injury as she was going for a drop kick on Kairi Sane. She misfired and came up lame as she writhed in pain on the mat. A trainer nearby needed to come into the ring to help Stark out and to the backstage area.

She thanked her fans and colleagues for their support and well wishes.

"Wow the love and support means more to me than you'll ever know!" Stark wrote in a post on X. "What hurts more than my knee is knowing I wont be able to perform for all of you for a while. I LOVE what I do and I'm blessed to do this. As the saying goes, the comeback is greater than the setback. Love you guys."

Sane and Rhea Ripley were the ones left in the match as the triple threat became a one-on-one fight. Ripley ended up getting the pin and win over Sane to move into the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match, which will take place next month in California.

Sane and Ripley both shared their thoughts on Stark’s injury.

OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST TALKS DECISION TO MAKE LEAP TO WWE: 'MY CALLING FROM GOD'

"Professional wrestling can be very real and dangerous… Tonight continued to prove that anything can happen," Ripley wrote. "Wishing @ZoeyStarkWWE a speedy recovery!"

Sane added, "I truly hope we get to face each other again when you’re ready. Wishing you a smooth recovery."

Stark debuted on the "Raw" roster in 2023 after having success in NXT for a few years before getting the call-up. 

She immediately made an impact when she partnered with WWE legend Trish Stratus during her feud with Becky Lynch. Once the rivalry was over, she found herself in a new faction with Shayna Baszler and Sonya Deville for a few months, but Baszler and Deville eventually departed the company.

Stark was ranked as the No. 86 top female wrestler in Pro Wrestling Illustrated’s 2021 list. She won a tag team championship with Iyo Sky in NXT.

NASCAR star Ryan Blaney talks interest in completing one of toughest challenges in racing

Sunday is a huge day for any fan of motorsports.

Formula 1 will run the Monaco Grand Prix with the Indianapolis 500 taking place in the afternoon and the Coca-Cola 600 at night to put a cap on the day.

Ryan Blaney will be behind the wheel of the No. 12 Team Penske car for the Coca-Cola 600 with the BodyArmor Chill drinks emblazoned on the hood of his vehicle. Blaney’s fellow NASCAR Cup Series colleague Kyle Larson will be attempting to do "The Double."

"The Double" is one of the toughest feats any racecar driver could attempt to do during their career. It involves racing the Indy 500 and then flying on a plane to Charlotte for the Coca-Cola 600. Larson became one of five drivers to attempt "The Double" last year but failed to make it to the NASCAR race.

Blaney told Fox News Digital it was "neat" to watch Larson attempt it last year.

"It’s the biggest day in racing," Blaney said. "You got Monaco early, then you got Indy, and then we end it with the 600. I get up and watch Monaco in the morning, I cheer on the Penske guys for the 500 and then I get ready to go race. I think it’s a great feat. It was neat to watch him do it last year. Last year didn’t really go his way with rain and stuff like that, it was kind of a crapshoot. Hopefully, it goes a little smoother for him this year just being able to do it all."

CONOR DALY LOOKS TO ETCH HIS NAME IN MORE THAN JUST INDY 500 HISTORY

An attempt at "The Double" appeared to pique Blaney’s interest given that Team Penske has drivers competing at the Indy 500.

"But yeah, it’s something I’ve always considered," Blaney said. "You never know, maybe down the road if I get a chance. I’m with a great team that has a chance to do it, but we’ll see. You never know, we’ll figure it out."

Larson, John Andretti, Tony Stewart, Robby Gordon and Kurt Busch have all attempted the feat. Stewart was the only driver out of the group to complete both races on the same day.

No driver has won either race while making the attempt.

Larson is hoping that changes come Sunday.

The Indy 500 will be broadcast May 25 on FOX with coverage starting at 10 a.m. ET. It will also be available to stream live on FOXSports.com and the FOX Sports app.

Aaron Rodgers says people close to him have been dealing with cancer amid delay of NFL return

As star quarterback Aaron Rodgers remains an unsigned free agent this offseason, the 41-year-old veteran says that his personal life has been impacted by tragedy to those close to him. 

During an interview with Joe Rogan on Wednesday, Rodgers said that there are many people close to him who are currently dealing with cancer. 

"I've been in the weeds with these people who are close to me that have cancer," Rodgers told Rogan

The quarterback previously hinted at issues in his personal life during an interview on the "Pat McAfee Show" back in April, as a reason why he had not signed with a team. 

"I have a couple people in my inner, inner circle who are battling some difficult stuff," Rodgers said. "So, I have a lot of things that are taking my attention and have since the beginning of January away from football. That's where I have been focusing most of my attention on."

STEELERS' COURTSHIP OF AARON RODGERS IS MORE 'COMPLEX' THAN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, PART-OWNER SAYS

Multiple reports have linked Rodgers to the Pittsburgh Steelers, who currently have a quarterback opening after losing Russell Wilson and Justin Fields this offseason and choosing not to pick a top quarterback prospect in this year's NFL Draft. 

Rodgers recently visited the Steelers' facilities, and multiple outlets reported he met with the team's coaching staff. However, Rodgers has still yet to decide if he will continue his NFL career in 2025 or step away from the game all together, as he has not ruled out retirement. 

Journalist Ian O'Conner, who recently wrote the Rodgers biography "Out of the Darkness: The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers," said the quarterback is likely to end up in Pittsburgh. 

"I just think verbally, behind the scenes, not that he guaranteed it, but he’s told [the Steelers], ‘Listen, I’m gonna play for you. I just don’t want to go there and then miss part of mandatory minicamp because of my personal issues. I’m pretty sure they’re gonna be solved by the end of May, at least in my satisfaction where I can give you my all.’ So that’s where I think he is," O’Connor said during a recent appearance on 93.7 The Fan.

O'Conner went on to describe the Steelers as the "perfect place" for Rodgers to bring his storied career to a close.

"He knows it was an embarrassment in New York largely, and he’s the face of that embarrassment," O’Connor said. "Whether that’s fair or not, that’s the case. It may be me as an optimist, but I think this is gonna work out. Do I think the Steelers will win the Super Bowl next year? No. But if you told me 11-6 with at least one playoff victory ... I think that’s realistic."

Yankees rookie Jasson Dominguez etches name in MLB record books with dramatic walk-off homer

New York Yankees rookie outfielder Jasson Dominguez hit a walk-off home run to give the team a 4-3 comeback win over the Texas Rangers on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium. 

With one out and up 2-0 in the count, Dominguez clubbed a hanging slider from Rangers’ reliever Luke Jackson 398 feet into the second deck to give the Yankees the win. 

Dominguez’s home run did more than just win the game -- he also etched his name into the history books.

The 22-year-old is the first player in MLB history to achieve these four feats in a single month: hit three home runs in a game, hit a home run from both sides of the plate in a game, hit a grand slam, and hit a walk-off home run, according to OptaSTATS.

Earlier in the month against the Athletics, Dominguez became the youngest Yankees player to ever hit three home runs in a game. He became just the 16th player ever to have a three-home run game with at least one coming from each side of the plate. 

AARON JUDGE ON 326-FOOT HR, THE SHORTEST OF HIS CAREER: 'IT COUNTS THE SAME'

On the season, Dominguez has a .241 batting average with a .340 on-base percentage with six home runs and 22 RBI. 

The Yankees outfielder has especially turned it up in May, as he has hit .267 with an on-base percentage of .382, with four home runs in the month. 

The American League East-leading Yankees have won three straight games and seven of their last nine games. 

The Yankees (29-19) are going for the three-game sweep of the Rangers (25-25) when they play at 12:35 p.m. ET on Thursday.
