This increase in production will see Nintendo produce 16 million Nintendo Switch consoles from April 1st, 2017 to March 31st, 2018. This number is significant, as the Wii U sold less than 16 million units over the course of its lifetime, indicating that Nintendo has a lot more confidence in the Nintendo Switch’s ability to resonate with consumers. So far, it seems as though Nintendo’s increase in Switch production is justified....

In case you didn’t know… Cody Rhodes initially debuted a new look way back in December of 2017 during his initial reign as Ring of Honor World Champion and we also got our first glimpse at Cody’s new hairstyle during his title defense against Dalton Castle at ROH: Final Battle.

In case you didn’t know… Earlier this year, at NJPW: Dominion 6.9, Bullet Club leader Kenny Omega won the IWGP Heavyweight Championship for the very first time in his career when he defeated Kazuchika Okada in a historic 2 out of 3 falls match at the Osaka Jo-Hall and ended The Rainmaker’s legendary 720-day reign.

In case you didn’t know… Tetsuya Naito’s first reign as IWGP Intercontinental Champion came way back in 2016 when ‘The Ungovernable’ defeated former ROH World Champion Michael Elgin in order to become the 15th IWGP IC Champion in NJPW history. During his first reign as IWGP IC Champion, Naito successfully defended the belt against Hiroshi Tanahashi at Wrestle Kingdom 11.

The G1 Supercard surely lined up a stacked match card which featured several top stars from both ROH and NJPW, including the likes of Will Ospreay, Bully Ray, Mayu Iwatani, and a double main event with the ROH and IWGP Heavyweight Championship up for grabs.

ATLANTA--Finally, playoff drama. The first four division series games of this postseason featured at least four runs of separation by the fifth inning, and there weren't many comeback whispers. But the seemingly endless streak of mop-up frames filled with non-existent rallies ended Friday night at Turner Field, where the Braves slipped past the Dodgers, 4-3, to even their series at 1-1 heading to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Sunday....

It was during a conversation about undocumented students at the university where I teach and how they were vulnerable to stress and deportation during the Trump administration. “No,” I said and walked out of her office dumbfounded. How she made the leap from me talking about some of my students to an intrusive question about my family background still bothers me. A new poll may explain her question. It found that most Americans overestimate the number of Latinos they think are undocumented....

O’Connor’s most famous transgression came in October 1992, when she went on “Saturday Night Live” and ripped up a photograph of the pope. The singer was protesting all sorts of things, among them the fact that the Irish courts had tried to prevent a 14-year-old rape victim from leaving the country to get an abortion. Say what you like about O’Connor’s politics, but she certainly has guts: she had nothing to gain by taking on the church and, as it turned out, a lot to lose....

Oltmans, who was also India coach, left the Pakistan shores barely nine month after joining as their head coach, citing lack of suitable circumstances. “I personally do not expect a lot from Pakistan in this World Cup because they have a difficult pool.
