Today's UPDATES

Two days left until the 2018 NFL Season kickoffs this Thursday, but today we have another Max Sports update regarding the current MLB Standings. A lot certainly changed after yesterday a somewhat relaxing Labor Day, the Red Sox defeated the Braves to make their win column grow up to 95 games, and this team is more than likely to go pass the 100 win mark before the regular season is over. The defending World Series Champion Astros gained some ground in the AL West division after defeating the twins, while the Indians failed to do the same thing in the AL Central when they could not beat the Royals. In what maybe a preview of the American League Wild Card game, the Athletics got the upper hand on the Yankees in a 6-3 victory at the Oakland Coliseum, however the Yanks still remain in the number one spot in the AL Wild Card Standings. Heading over to the National League, the Brewers were able to beat the Cubs in a 4-3 victory as the former team is trying to stay on top the NL Wild Card Standings, and the latter team still has somewhat of a strong hold on the NL Central division. Despite losing to the Red Sox, the Braves can really thank the Marlins for keeping the Phillies at bay in the NL East, and the Rockies who beat the Giants 9-8, can really thank the Mets for beating the Dodgers 4-2, this would allow the Rocks to take the top spot in the NL West. An updates look at the standings can be seen down below along with all of the results from MLB Labor Day action yesterday.

A heck of a lot went down last night on Monday Night Raw, though I wasn't there to see it because I was out last night to a Labor Day BBQ and I missed the entirely of Raw's three hour broadcast. Despite that I can tell you this much, at the beginning of the show, The SHIELD came down from the audience to get the hands on Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre who were already in the ring. But then, WWE security, officials and superstars came out ti break up the fight, and then for some reason The SHIELD were arrested and brought to a judge later in the night for their gang-like actions. With the Hounds of Justice stuck in jail, the fun had only just started on Raw, for The Bella Twins made their return to the ring as a tag team since 2015 and defeated the Riott Squad, it was announced that at WWE Evolution, the first all-women's pay-per-view, WWE Hall of Famer Lita would faced one of her old rivals in Mickie James. Meanwhile, Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler were in mood for some championship gold, so they decided to attack The Revival who were ready to take on The B-Team for the Raw Tag Team Championship, Drew and Dolph were given permission by acting Raw GM Baron Corbin to insert themselves into the Tag Team title match, and they easily beat The B-Team to capture for said titles. During a mediation session with Jinder Mahal, Bobby Lashley was attacked by Kevin Owens who showed up nowhere even after he announced he quit last week, Owens was completely on edge and gave Lashley a powerbomb on the ring apron. The main event of RAW was between Finn Bálor and Braun Strowman, the latter of which had no problem winning the match, soon Drew and Dolph came out again to assist Strowman in the beatdown on Bálor, but then, The SHIELD finally returned to dish out some justice. However, Reigns, Rollins and Ambrose got a taste of their own medicine when most of the Raw roster came out out and torn though the SHIELD apart like they were tin foil. But the biggest moment of them all was when Shawn Michaels returned to share his thoughts about Triple H vs The Undertaker at Super Show Down in Melbourne, Australia. The DEADMAN made his returned to Raw last night and had one of his best promos with the Heartbreak Kid himself. This has now left WWE fans speculating about one more match between Shawn Michaels and Undertaker, maybe at WrestleMania 35 perhaps, here's a #TwitterTrend to help the readers of #KlicKNet understand what fans are feeling right now.

Ahmed Shah @AhmedShah94

Seeing @ShawnMichaels and the Undertaker in the same ring one more time sent a chill down my spine. #WWERaw

Mr. Tito @titowrestling

Can't help but notice that Shawn Michaels is in good physical shape right now... Calling it now, Wrestlemania 35, 10 years after the epic match. HBK vs. Undertaker is happening and gets started when HBK interferes in Australia during the HHH vs. Taker match. #WWE

Jay Alletto @JayAlletto

The Undertaker & Shawn Michaels gave us some A+ storytelling.

But this says a lot about the current state of WWE.

It’s amazing that Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels went down in 1997, 2009 & looks like 2019.

Idk, man. #RAW

Scott Fishman @smFISHMAN

Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker showing how it’s done. Reminding us what makes them two of the greatest of all-time. They draw you in and bring out that emotion. Appreciate these two iconic figures then, now, forever. #WWE #Raw

WWE Australia @WWEAustralia

The #Undertaker returned to confront @ShawnMichaels on #Raw ahead of @WWE Super Show-Down at the @MCG! #WWESSD

Today seems like a like sad day for little children attending Disney California Adventure because the 16-year-old "a bug's land" area is closing down. Based on the 1998 Disney/Pixar film A Bug's Land, this small area was like a hangout spot for children in DCA while their parents were off doing their own business, but after today, the entire land will be removed in order to make for the upcoming Marvel Land, and let me be honest right now, nobody has been looking forward the way I have. Like everyone else, Disney and Marvel fan alike, I have been speculating how DCA this new land a success, it set to open in 2020, right after Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge next year in Disneyland, Marvel Land doesn't be as good as Star Wars, both franchises are in leagues of their own, but I believe that the upcoming Marvel Land can be an immersive experience for Disney and Marvel fans who have been waiting for construction to begin for a very long time. Just late last year, I made my own predictions to the DCA plans for Marvel, and I'm thinking about tweaking those ideas of mine in an upcoming post very soon, but in the meantime, I present to the viewers of #KlicKNet a Web Choice playlist of park goers taking one last look at a bug's land before it closes today.
