First Image from BUMBLEBEE Revealed
The first photo from the upcoming Transformers spin-off BUMBLEBEE has been released, featuring lead actress Hailee Steinfeld with a distinctly ’80s looking Volkswagon Beetle. You can check it out down below. The film, which is tentatively set for release in December 2018, will also star 16-time WWE world champion John Cena in currently unknown role.
BUMBLEBEE will be directed by Travis Knight, a somewhat unique pick given his role as a key member of the Oregon-based Laika studio, which primarily handles stop-motion animation such as PARANORMAN and KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS. Peter Cullen, the iconic voice of Optimus Prime, has also revealed he will play a role in the film.

Tye Dillinger Heel Turn Coming?
There has been a lot of speculation about a possible heel turn coming for Smackdown Live star Tye Dillinger. The rumors began picking up steam after he began performing as more of a villain at WWE live events, turning his “Perfect 10” gimmick around and demanding that he was the only real “Perfect 10” in the business.
Dillinger has only been used sparingly since being brought to the main roster, despite coming in with a considerable amount of hype behind him. He was involved in a United States Championship program briefly earlier this year along with AJ Styles and Baron Corbin, and just this past week lost to Jinder Mahal in a tournament to crown a new U.S. champion.
Speculation aside, its not uncommon for WWE to tryout new concepts at live events, whether or not they actually end up on television in the long run. There have also been plenty of instances where characters debuted with new twists at house shows, and the transition wasn’t made to the televised product for several months afterwards.
