Today's UPDATES

I'm beat from yesterday, I wrote the San Diego Comic Con edition of Today's Updates, then later on that night I saw WWE Battleground and it was a complete prelude to the Biggest Part of the Summer, known only as SummerSlam. Once I get over from these past two Sundays of covering the D23 Expo and Comic Con, I should feel fine by tomorrow, so let MaxSports talk about events that transpired in last night's SmackDown Live exclusive pay-per-view. We saw The New Day become SmackDown Tag Team Champions, Kevin Owens retook the United States Championship from AJ Styles, and Jinder Mahal stole another victory from Randy Orton, this time inside the Punjabi Prison match and also with a little help from the return of The Great Khali. It was a real shocker to see Khali after only three years out of the WWE, and I can tell that all of the WWE Universe will agree with me. There was big stuff that happen over the weekend for MLB teams and we have full results from yesterday's games to prove it.

Something really crazy happen yesterday afternoon and has got the world buzzing and it's the subject of Today's #TwitterTrend. People have been begging to see the first trailer for Marvel Studios' Avengers: Infinity War to be released to the public. It did not happen over the D23 Expo for the people who attended that event was exclusive footage that could not be seen to the people at home, they showed the same footage again at Comic Con this past weekend and nothing was was released to the public, or was it? While I was looking for some Marvel stuff on twitter, I discovered that they leaked the Infinity War trailer and I watched it immediately and got excited immediately as well. I can't begin to described what I saw but if you seen the leaked video then you must be stunned by how much work Marvel Studios has put into this movie to back the biggest blockbuster in the MCU. People have been dying to see the trailer in its entire image, so rather than gather tweets on other people's reactions to the leaked trailer, I want you all to see what they have said about it not debut at Comic Con and how much they are waiting to see it. One thing's for sure, we can not wait any longer, we demand to see Avengers: Infinity War right now!

Alex Zalben @azalben
I know you want to see Infinity War, but you should REALLY demand Marvel release the reel of Paul Rudd and Michael Peña recapping the MCU.

Chris Walder Frey @WalderSports
I want Shams Charania to leak the Avengers: Infinity War trailer.

Marc Graser @marcgraser
Marvel would break the Internet if it released the #InfinityWar footage. And that would be OK. #SDCC2017

If y'all need me I'm digging around the internet for leaked cell phone footage of the Infinity War trailer like a raccoon in your garbage.

More news out of San Diego Comic Con continues with our WebChoice Topic. Yesterday I showed you an art poster featuring the Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, Doctor Strange, Loki, the Villainous Thanos and his children. They will all be in Avengers: Infinity War next year, but that wasn't the official art poster. There are three pieces to with the left and right pieces featuring all of the Avengers and Guardians members and in the middle piece is the Black Order Thanos wielding the Infinity Stones in his gauntlet . Aside from all the Marvel and DC news, Nickelodeon was in attendance for Comic Con and showed brand new trailers of its Hey Arnold and Rocko's Modern Life movies. Both of which makes you feel like a kid in the 90s again as these two hit Nicktoons series really help put Nickelodeon on the map many years ago. In one trailer you have kangaroo Rocko and his friends dealing with life in the 21th century since their series took place in the late 20th century, then there's Arnold whose friends and neighbors all made of video about what a great person he is. I felt kinda bad not showing these in trailers in yesterday's post, but it's only far to show them in today's edition and coupled with the Infinity War are poster, we have concept art on the Skrulls coming to Captain Marvel in 2019.
