Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed to get new stablemates in two prominent NXT stars
Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman's new faction (Image via WWE) Seth Rollins is rolling into WWE as one of the biggest stars of the division and has shown through his hard work and domineering personality how fortune truly favors the brave. Recently, after the infamous Paul Heyman betrayal that left not just fans, but also Roman Reigns and CM Punk completely shocked, Rollins has found a new group to have his back. Although who knows when betrayal strikes again. But for now, looks like this new stable is looking to add more stablemates, and NXT stars Ethan Page and Ricky Saints are said to be in the mix. Former and current NXT North American Champions could join Seth Rollins' stable The Former NXT North American Champion, Ricky Saints, who recently lost his title to the current NXT North American Champion, Ethan Page, are both in consideration to join Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman's brand new stable. Rollins already has Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed on his side, and could be adding two more to the equation. Fightful had previously reported that WWE had no plans on adding more members to the stable, at least until the WrestleMania weekend. But things seem to have changed after the Saturday Night Main Event episode back in May, when Bronson Reed joined Rollins and Breakker inside the ring to take out CM Punk. Paul Heyman is, of course, also a part of this group after he betrayed not only Roman Reigns but also CM Punk and changed the course of their storyline to a completely different route. And now, according to Bodyslam, WWE is planning on adding more members to this exciting new stable. And the two NXT stars who recently fought it out amongst each other are their top choices for the job. Both Ethan Page and Ricky Saints are exceptional wrestlers and have taken the NXT crowd by storm. So it is not a surprise that WWE is planning to make a shift and bring them to the big leagues. While this could mean exciting new things happening inside the Stamford-based promotion, things are not set in stone. This stable has a lot of potential, and adding new stars to the mix could go either way. Until then, fans can enjoy Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman's brand new stable as it is, and keep their fingers crossed for what comes next.

The Halluci Nation's amped-up nod to wrestling, and 3 more songs you need to hear this week
Songs you need to hear is CBC Music's weekly list of hot new Canadian tracks. Scroll down to discover the songs our producers are loving right now. Canadian Destroyer, the Halluci Nation feat. Northern Cree Wrestling and the Halluci Nation have often gone hand in hand: in 2015, the electronic duo dropped a wrestling-inspired EP, Suplex, with songs like Bodyslam and The People's Champ. They returned to that theme on their vibrant 2023 EP, The Path of the Heel, and now, they expertly continue the through-line of combat sport on their latest EP, Path of the Baby Face. This time around, Tim "2oolman" Hill and Ehren "Bear Witness" Thomas are rumbling with more energy, as if gearing up to pull off the iconic wrestling flip from which the track takes its name. The Canadian destroyer is a crushing, part-somersault move used to flip an opponent and on the supercharged track, they team up with frequent collaborators Northern Cree to blend powwow music with throbbing dubstep for a heart-racing anthem. Beginning with the singing group's vocals, the track contains thundering drumming that revs up before each drop, adding some bite to moody synths. Northern Cree's vocals dip in and out, wobbling over the glitchy, rapid beats as the fast-paced song swirls around that heartbeat-like drumming. As it all comes together, it's clear to see that the pressure-building, riveting track would make a perfect walk-out song for the ring. — Natalie Harmsen Telenovela, Isabella Lovestory Isabella Lovestory's latest peek into her forthcoming sophomore album is a feast for the ears and eyes. The single, Telenovela, is accompanied by a larger-than-life music video directed by Charlotte Rutherford, that devolves into chaos as she's taken through many melodramatic telenovela skits, which end with a coital experience between her and her television (you have to see it to believe it). The neoperreo (reggaeton's baby cousin) track is all brash synths, dembow rhythms, headknocking drums and outlandish lyrics. A personal fave comes on the chorus when Isabella Lovestory warns that she and her "Barbarella bitches" aren't afraid to back down from a fight: "Si no te meto el tacón de cristal," which translates to "I'll stick my crystal stiletto in you." — Kelsey Adams Pool Party, Penny & the Pits Get your water shoes and goggles ready — it's time for a surf-rock swim with New Brunswick's Penny & the Pits. The new offshoot from Penelope Stevens, one-third of avant-rock trio Motherhood, Penny & the Pits is here to make you move, with irresistible riffs and feminist lyrics that lend a deliciously dark undertone to a fun time. "I spent a lot of time making challenging work that would test both myself and the listener," Stevens said, of their time with Motherhood. "Now, I'm trying to make music that feels good; music that connects the heart to the body." While Penny & the Pits is a Penelope Stevens project, the band's live iteration also features beloved local names: Megumi Yoshida (Century Egg, Dog Day, Not You), Colleen Collins (Construction & Destruction) and Grace Stratton (Nightbummerz, Glitterclit). Don't let yourself miss their live shows this pool season. — Holly Gordon Future Emma, Billianne Billianne's been on a killer run lately. The singles she's released since 2024 have showcased such a beautiful blossoming for the emerging artist. Her latest, Future Emma, really highlights the full breadth of her potential. It's been clear since the Milton, Ont. singer's cover of Tina Turner's Simply the Best in 2022 that she has an exemplary voice — full and robust — but on Future Emma, she's flexing all new vocal chops. In an interview with The Luna Collective at SXSW she said "out of all the songs in my musical hard drives and catalogs, I think I'm most proud of my voice on this song." The way she soars and soars some more on the chorus is goosebump-inducing. In the same interview, Billianne delved into writing the song for her friend who was going through some "really hard life circumstances" that she "shouldn't have to deal with at such a young age." Future Emma is tinged with hope, articulating that no matter what the world drops at your feet, you can make it through: "It's not how it's supposed to be/ The smoke's gonna clear eventually." — KA
