10 Weirdest Match Gimmicks In WWE

0
0

On April 27th, WWE will be putting a new spin on an old favorite at The Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia. Arguably the most popular PPV outside of Wrestlemania is The Royal Rumble. Thirty men enter the ring and the only way to be eliminated is to be thrown over the top rope. Now take that match and add 20 more superstars and that’s what you are going to get in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. But that isn’t the only specialty match we’re getting. We also are getting a steel cage and a casket match. WWE is no stranger to adding gimmicks to matches to make them more interesting and keep the product from getting stagnant. Some are exciting, some are dangerous, and some are downright strange. Here are 10 of the weirdest gimmicks WWE has put on.


Steel Cage Match

One of the tried and true formats for match gimmicks. You take two men, surround the ring with steel grating, and let them go at it. Usually, the way you win this match is by escaping the cage, either by unlocking the door or climbing out the top. It’s on the more tame end of the spectrum when it comes to how bonkers the gimmicks can get but is one of the more often used ones. It can benefit any style. A brutal brawl like Bret and Owen Hart going at it can be made even more intense. Or you can put high fliers like The Hardys in there and watch them climb around the top and give them even greater heights to drop from.


Casket Match

A match originally conceived in the 1970’s found new life when it was revived by none other than The Undertaker. To win this match you put your opponent into a casket–and close it. That’s the whole gimmick. The Undertaker has used this match format extensively facing off against the likes of Kane, CM Punk, and Bray Wyatt. It was even a casket match that caused Shawn Michaels first retirement after facing off against The Undertaker for the WWE Championship at the 1998 Royal Rumble when he sustained a severe back injury. It’s a fun concept… that probably will have trouble staying relevant without The Undertaker.


WarGames Match

Take a steel cage match, add a roof to the cage, and then throw in another ring. Then you would have a WarGames match. NXT brought this format back recently when The Undisputed Era, The Authors of Pain, and Roderick Strong with SAnitY fought in November 2017. It has a super intense name but seems like somewhat of a lazy format. “Hey, you know what would make this steel cage match better? A second ring…”


Punjabi Prison

When it comes to gimmicks, the WWE loves putting people in enclosures. This is one of their more interesting iterations of the locked up gimmick. Take one cage, put it inside another cage, and make those cages out of Bamboo. Add in the fact that the first time it was used the bamboo shoots were all sharpened on top making it far more dangerous for the superstars to climb out. It has only been used three times to date. Originally created by The Great Kahli, it received its name from the Punjab region that he was billed from. It was revived in 2017 by then WWE Champion Jinder Mahal. Thankfully, the spikes were not part of this second iteration. It’s an awkward match that is physically hard for the audience to watch since they have to do so through two layers of bamboo. This one might not be making a fourth appearance…


 Kendo Stick On A Pole Match

There are a couple different versions of this match but this is one of the more insane. They put a pole on one of the ring posts and hang a kendo stick on it. The first person to climb up the turnbuckles and grab the Kendo stick… gets to beat the living crap out of their competitor with it…It can be an exciting stipulation– unless you’re Bayley and you refuse to use it on Alexa Bliss. It’s only the entire gimmick of the match.


Strip Matches

Let me just open with how thankful I am these are a thing of the past.

The purpose of this match is to disrobe the other competitor. There is technically a men’s version called a tuxedo match but the more popular version was the Bra and Panties version. At one point the WWE treated its women’s division as nothing more than eye candy, so they would put them in matches where the only way to win was to strip down the other woman to her bra and panties. Thankfully, the WWE has moved towards gender equality in booking and has a monster women’s division right now so matches like this are a thing of the past.


Tables, Ladders, and Chairs

This match seems commonplace now, even having a PPV dedicated to it. But if you break it down it’s insane that this exists. You allow people to use tables and chairs as weapons and throw a bunch of ladders around to use as you see fit. Climb up them and jump off? Drop your opponents onto one? Swing it around like a giant blunt weapon? Sure, all of the above in a TLC match. Add in the fact that there is usually a prize hanging above the ring that you need to climb up a ladder to get and you have a recipe for absolute destruction. If you want an example of how good this type of match can be I highly recommend checking out TLC 2 at Wrestlemania 17 (listed as X-Seven). It pits the Hardys, The Dudleys, and Edge and Christian in a triple threat for the Tag Team Titles. It’s a wonder those men can even still walk afterward.


Kiss My Ass Match

Instagram Photo

No that is not an ironic title for a match, the name is very literal. The loser has to kiss the bare butt of the winner. It’s as simple as that. This was popular in the Attitude Era but has seemingly disappeared in the PG Era. A lot of big names had to pucker up on live TV and kiss someones rear end. It’s a degrading action that is incredibly awkward to watch. Not many people miss Kiss My Ass Matches.


First Blood Match

Instagram Photo

One of the more brutal additions to the gimmick roster, to win a first blood match you must make the other man bleed. Yep, if you bleed first you lose. This was another stipulation that found more success in the Attitude Era. Since the move to the move to PG Era, the WWE is mostly against having talent bleed on purpose. Nowadays we are shocked when we see crimson on the superstars, like when Brock Lesnar opened up Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania 34. But back in the late 90’s and early 00’s wrestlers would fight in these matches, sometimes using specific moves known to cause bleeding or using a method called blading. Blading is when a wrestler would take a hidden blade and make a small cut, usually on the face since it is prone to bleeding profusely and then reveal the wound to the audience. It is a somewhat barbaric match that isn’t likely to resurface.


Buried Alive Match

Instagram Photo

Think about the aforementioned casket match, now use a hole in the ground instead. The buried alive match is an unnerving match in which one competitor literally tries to murder the other one. To win you have to throw your opponent into a pit… and bury him… Another match that is reserved for The Undertaker, you can see why the WWE has steered away from this one. Kids are always going to try what they see on TV–burying their friends alive may not be something you want them to try.


WWE has tried a lot of different things to keep the product vibrant. Thankfully some of these mentioned gimmicks seem to have been left in the past. Hopefully, they stay there…


5 Facts About Mohamed Salah Every Fan Should Know

0
0

Mohamed Salah has become a staple name in the English Premier League. His goal-scoring skills have attracted a lot of attention, especially during this 2017/2018 season. He was just recognized as PFA Premier League Player of the Year and awarded a spot on PFA’s Team of the Year. He’s on track to break Ronaldo’s record of scoring the most goals in a 38 game season, and he’s giving Harry Kane a run for his money. The 25-year-old joined the league in 2014, and since then his play has grown exponentially. Salah is the player you’re going to be talking about for a long time. Here are five facts that every fan should know about him.


He’s a Friendly Dude

Instagram Photo

Unlike Messi’s Argentinean wedding where security was in full-force, Salah welcomed all. He married his wife Magi in 2013, and at the wedding, he sent an open invitation to pretty much everyone, including his entire village. Thousands of people were there to celebrate with the two. They also have a four-year-old daughter, Makka Mohamed, who makes many appearances on Salah’s Instagram.


Religious Beliefs

Instagram Photo

Salah has strong ties to the Muslim faith. After every goal, he performs the sujood where he bows his head to the turf. His daughter is actually named after Islam’s holiest city, Mecca. He and his wife changed the spelling of their daughter’s name due to the possibility of it being associated with gambling. There’s a worldwide casino known as “Mecca Bingo.” Since gambling is not allowed in Islam, they didn’t want their daughter’s name to be reflective of that.

Military

In Egypt, male citizens between ages 18 and 30 have to engage in mandatory military service. When he was playing for Chelsea in July 2014, Salah’s soccer career nearly came to a halt because of this. He thought he was on the list for education because males involved in education are exempt from the requirement. As it turns out, he actually wasn’t. Fortunately, Ahmed Hassan, Egypt’s national team head coach stepped in and absolved Salah of his military duties.


The Controversial Fist Bump

Instagram Photo

As a newbie on Chelsea, Salah refused to shake hands with Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv players. Instead, he gave them a fist bump. Some people became very upset after the incident, stating that Salah was taking an anti-Israel stance and Chelsea was, therefore, supporting this. Salah stood his ground though and announced he wouldn’t shake the players’ hands out of protest, due to Israel’s crimes against Palestinians.

The Egyptian King

Instagram Photo

Liverpool fans are in love with Salah. So much so that they write songs and chants about him where he’s been dubbed the “Egyptian King.” One particular song has fans joking that if the forward scores more goals, they’ll also convert to Muslim. It goes, “If he’s good enough for you, he’s good enough for me. If he scores another few, then I’ll be Muslim too. If he’s good enough for you, he’s good enough for me, then sitting in a mosque is where I want to be.”


Who Is The 2018 NFL Draft’s Alvin Kamara?

0
0

It’s no secret that everything in the NFL is a trend. The RPO (run-pass option), the read option, speed on defense, hybrid safeties, you name it. Everything in the NFL came from one team who perfected it and everyone else is trying to copy that. This year, that trend is going to be finding a guy like Alvin Kamara. A mid-round running back who ends up winning Offensive Rookie of the Year. Will they turn out like Kamara? They probably won’t set the NFL record for yards per touch, but that won’t stop NFL teams from drafting these guys to be Kamara.


Ronald Jones

Instagram Photo

Most teams have a late first or early second round grade on Jones, but he’s much more of a situational back. He is a great pass catcher, and has good speed outside the tackles. Jones didn’t show the strength or durability to be a true number one back at USC, which makes him a good fit in Kamara’s situational type role. In the right offense where he doesn’t have to be a bellcow back, Jones could fill that type of role and make it work pretty well.


Mark Walton

Instagram Photo

Coming out of Miami, Walton is a solid mid-round prospect at running back. He broke his ankle and missed most of the 2017 campaign, but is still a great prospect. He has great speed to the outside and is much better at running between the tackles than Jones. He is an excellent tackle breaker, just like Kamara. He has the same ability to make one side of his body go limp when he gets hit and then continues his momentum forward. If used the right way, Walton could be a problem for NFL defenses.

Sony Michel

Instagram Photo

A solid change of pace back, Michel has the ability to make an impact similar to the one he made at Georgia. After running for 1200 yards and 16 touchdowns during his senior season, he showed his top-end talent. Sharing time with Nick Chubb was great for him, as it prepared him for the role he’s probably going to play at the NFL level. Michel has also shown flashes of his pass catching ability, he doesn’t run routes like Kamara does but he can have a similar impact on screenplays.


Royce Freeman

Instagram Photo

The Oregon product is in a sense the opposite of Ronald Jones. He’s a much bigger back who relies more on his power. He is an excellent change of pace back for a team with a number one back with a lot of outside speed. They would be able to run Freeman between the tackles and change the offensive look similar to what Alvin Kamara did with the Saints.

‘Avengers: Infinity War’: Which Heroes Are We Going To Lose?

0
0

Marvel

With the release of Avengers: Infinity War finally being upon us, anticipation for the decade-in-the-making movie is at an all-time high.

And given that mass casualties are expected (to a certain extent), we decided to rank the Avengers heroes we know and love that must likely to kick the bucket when Thanos roles into town.


Nick Fury

The man who got it all started back in 2008, Nick Fury (AKA Superhero Samuel L) has been with the Avengers ever since the beginning, as he was the one tasked with getting the team together.

However, given that he’s not a superhero by any stretch of the imagination, Fury is likely candidate to go, as his death would have a massive emotional impact on the audience while having minimal impact on the plot.

That said, while Nick Fury may be mortal, Samuel L. Jackson seems as though he’s going to live forever, so maybe Fury makes it out alive after all.


Someone in the Guardians of the Galaxy

Personally, I think this is a lock, as the only member of the Guardians that are guaranteed to survive are Star-Lord and Baby (Teen?) Groot. Christ Pratt is too much of a money-making asset and Groot is just too adorable to kill.

My money is on Drax or Rocket, as they’re semi-major characters who would be missed … but not missed too much. Maybe even both of them going down together, friends at last? How knows? All I know is that not every single member of the Guardians are going to make it out of Infinity War alive.


Loki

Another obvious choice, Loki’s death would certainly complete his villain-turned-hero arc.

Long considered to be the most entertaining villain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Loki has been a fixture of both the Avengers and Thor movies up to this point. And every time he has appeared, he has become a little bit more of a hero each and every time.

The trailers seem to indicate that Loki will find himself as Thanos’ prisoner, so a self-sacrifice certainly seems likely.


Captain America

Long-rumored to be *the* major consequence of Infinity War is the death of Steve Rodgers — the heart and soul (and gorgeous face) of the Avengers. We know that Chris Evans can’t play Captain America forever, so now seems as likely a time as any for Marvel to begin to phase him out.

Plus, given how handsome he looks with long hair and a beard, Marvel runs the risk of permanently offending and emasculating their male audience. When I go to the movies, I want an escape from reality, not a reminder of how much better looking Chris Evans is than me.

Armando Juarez Photos: Full Story & Must-See Details

Police have arrested 29-year-old Armando Juarez in connection with the shooting of two Dallas police officers who were shot and critically wounded in a shooting at a Home Depot on Tuesday, April 24. A store loss-prevention officer was also shot in the incident at the North Dallas Home Depot.

Following the shooting, after a brief car chase, Juarez and an unidentified female passenger were arrested on the 3700 block of South Versailles, near Dallas Love Field Airport, around 9 p.m. local time. Juarez faces charges of aggravated assault against a public servant.

None of the officers were killed and all three victims currently out of surgery. Juarez has been charged with aggravated assault of a public servant. His bond has not been set.

via CBS:

After the shooting, at the store in the 11600 block of Forest Central Drive, police say Juarez took off in a white-colored work truck. It was then police put out a description of the truck — that had “GX4” on the back fender, a ladder rack, and large exhaust pipes rising from the front — and issued a be on the lookout (BOLO) alert.

Immediately after the shooting police, with guns drawn, were seen at the back of the Home Depot as employees appeared to be rushing out of the back of the store and away from the area.

A massive search from police helicopters the air and on the ground followed after witnesses reported the shooter fled on foot and may be hiding in a nearby creek. But when police reviewed security camera video they discovered the suspect took off in the pickup truck. Inside the store, employees and customers either froze in panic or fled in fear from the brutal violence that played out in front of them.

The store was evacuated and workers were sent home for the day. Prior to the shooting, Juarez, 29, had an outstanding warrant for felony theft when police approached him at the Home Depot.

Aside from Parks and Recreation, Slate appeared as a cast member on Saturday Night Live during the 2009 season. She has also appeared in on various comedic television shows such as House of Lies, Married, Bob’s Burgers, Hello Ladies, Kroll Show, and Girls. Slate also has an extensive voice work career, as she has had roles in multiple animation films such as Zootopia, The Secret Life of Pets, and Despicable Me 3.

2018 will be remembered as a big year for Slate, as she starred alongside Tom Hardy in Marvel comics filmVenom, and also starred Hotel Artemis alongside award-winning actors Sterling K. Brown and Jodie Foster, who will be making her first acting appearance since 2013.

Elisabeth Moss: Hottest Photos of “Handmaid’s Tale” Actress

Elisabeth Moss has been around for years now, appearing in The West Wing and Man Men (I recognize her as Jonah Hill’s girlfriend in the forever underrated Get Him To The Greek), but she really hit it big with her role as June Osborne in the Hulu smash hit The Handmaid’s Tale For her work as June Osborne, Moss won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series. Before The Handmaid’s Tale, Moss portrayed Peggy Olson, secretary-turned-copywriter, on the AMC series Mad Men (2007–2015), which earned her six Emmy Awards nominations and a Golden Globe nomination.

In addition to her wide-spread recognition for The West Wing, Mad Men, and The Handmaid’s Tale, Moss is also known for her work in the films Girl, Interrupted, Virgin, Listen Up Philip, The One I Love, Truth, Queen of Eart, and The Square.

In 2018, in addition to the second season of The Handmaid’s Tale, Moss will be starring in the films The Seagull and The Old Man and the Gun. In her personal life, Moss was previously married to SNL alum and Portlandia star Fred Armisen.

While Elisabeth Moss may have grown into an A-list, award-winning actress now, I’ll always remember her as Jonah Hill’s nagging girlfriend inGet Him To The Greek.

Two UCF Students Charged With Rape, Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity Suspended

Two University of Central Florida students have been arrested and charged after an unidentified woman accused them of rape at an off-campus party. The Eta Rho Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega at Central Florida was suspended on Tuesday, April 24, as a result of the accusations.

According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, 26-year-old Jack Ryan Smith of Winter Springs was arrested on Saturday, April 21, and is facing charges of sexual battery of an incapacitated person. In addition, 20-year-old David Kirk was arrested on Tuesday, April 24, and was also charged with sexual battery of an incapacitated person.

Smith is out of jail on $10,000 bond while Kirk’s first appearance in front of a judge was on the morning of Wednesday, April 25.

While police said that the residence on Fiske Circle is often the venue for parties hosted by the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, fraternity officials claim the party was not a fraternity-hosted event.

via Orlando Sentinel:

A woman told deputies she attended the party in the 4900 block of Fiske Circle, near UCF, which is a party home for the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity. She drank vodka and flavored water on the way there. At the party, she drank green apple-flavored shaved ice with vodka and spent most of night in the backyard by a fire pit, where she talked with Kirk and Smith, according to an arrest report.

The woman told deputies she was stumbling and slurring her words and was blackout drunk at this time, only remembering “snapshots” of the night. She said she remembered waking up in a bedroom, on her stomach in a queen-sized bed, her feet on the floor, and naked. Smith, she told deputies, was raping her, according to the report. At the same time, Kirk was forcing her to perform oral sex on him, the report said.

The woman said she was in shock and numb, the report said, adding that she remembered hearing one of the men saying “my turn, my turn,” and the pair switched positions as she cried. The report did not say if she is a student. Next thing the woman remembered, she was sitting on the floor in the bathroom across the hall from the bedroom crying, according to the report. She texted her friends for help, met them and went home. The next day, she went to Florida Hospital East Orlando.

While the party and alleged rape reportedly occurred off-campus, Central Florida University has suspended the fraternity because they said Alpha Tau Omega violated five charges of alcohol-related misconduct and one of disruptive misconduct.

On Tuesday, April 24, the national Alpha Tau Omega organization released a statement about the incident saying ATO “supports the woman alleging sexual assault” and that the party was “not in any way connected” to the fraternity. The organization estimates about 10 of the 250 people who attended the party are active members of the fraternity.

The victim has not yet been identified.

Corporal Eugene Cole, 62, was shot and killed in the line of duty by a suspect who stole his cruiser in Norridgewock, Maine. Cole served for the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office for 13 years and has a son who is with the department. John Williams, 29, is the person of interest and a manhunt is underway.

The suspect, 29-year-old John Williams, is still at large and is considered armed and extremely dangerous. Williams is 5 feet 6 inches tall, with blue eyes, 120 pounds and brown hair. Massachusetts State Police say Williams was arrested on weapons charges last month. He was previously facing charges including possessing a firearm and ammunition without a license and possessing a large capacity feeding device.

According to authorities, Williams stole Corporal Cole’s cruiser and drove to Cumberland Farms at a Cumberland Farms on Waterville Road in Norridgewock around 1:45 a.m. After robbing Cumberland Farms, police say Cole’s cruiser was later found abandoned and believe Williams ran away on foot.

FBI agents were on the scene to assist in the manhunt. In addition, Police ordered Mill Stream Elementary in Norridgewock to close as a precaution.

Paul LePage, the Governor of Maine, released the following statement:

“Our deepest condolences go out to the family of fallen Deputy Sheriff Corporal Eugene Cole. If you live in Somerset County and the surrounding area, please cooperate with law enforcement and stay safe.”

During a press conference, a spokesman for the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office described Cole as an “outstanding employee” and “one of the finest deputies you’d ever want to meet.”

Police are asking anyone who sees Williams not to approach him but to call 911 immediately. Norridgewock is a town in Somerset County, Maine, United States, with an estimated population of 3,367.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Cole’s family, friends and colleagues at this time.

The 6-foot-4 quarterback burst onto the national scene as the first true freshman to ever start a season opener for the UCLA Bruins. His nicknames — “Chosen Rosen” and “The Chosen One” — stem from his time as the top recruit in his class out of St. John Bosco High School, where he was a USA Today High School All-American and Player of the Year.

Before ever taking the field, however, he was a standout tennis player. Rosen was the No. 1-ranked player in his age group in Southern California and a top-10 player in the junior rankings. He made the switch to football just prior to the start of his high school career.

Rosen grew up in a Jewish household and had a bar mitzvah, and was named the Southern California Jewish Sports Hall of Fame’s Male High School Athlete of the Year before heading to UCLA.

Baker Mayfield Net Worth 2018: How Much Is Baker Mayfield Worth?

Baker Mayfield, 23, has been long touted as one of the best quarterback prospects for several years now. He declared he would opt for the NFL after his Oklahoma Sooners lost a thriller to the Georgia Bulldogs in the 2018 Rose Bowl. With all the hoopla about this young man and a future in the NFL set to begin, just how much is Mayfield actually worth?

Baker Mayfield’s Estimated Net Worth: $30 Million

Even in college at Oklahoma, and not being paid since he was a collegiate athlete, Baker Mayfield has a worth of a million dollars. Those numbers are expected to go up wildly tomorrow night after his name is called. Somewhere in that top-five, Mayfield will be raking up the cash at $30 million.


Early Life

https://www.instagram.com/p/8o-q2cktjp/

Baker Mayfield was born in Austin, Texas on April 14, 1995.

Mayfield attended Lake Travis High School, where he was the starting quarterback for the Lake Travis Cavaliers.

During his time at Lake Travis, Mayfield led the Cavaliers to a 25-2 record in two seasons. He helped Lake Travis win the 2011 Texas 4A State Championship. His high school career finished with him throwing for 6,255 yards, 67 touchdowns, and just eight interceptions.

Once he graduated from Lake Travis, Mayfield decided to take his talents to Texas Tech University.


College Years

After heading to Texas Tech, Mayfield was named the starting quarterback a short time before the start of the 2013 season as a freshman. It was said, he’s the first freshman — who was also a true walk-on — to start a season opener.

That 2013 season, Baker would finish with 2,315 yards on 218 completions, and he would throw for 12 touchdowns, earning him the honor of Big 12 Conference Freshman Offensive Player of the Year. Mayfield eventually left Texas Tech and enrolled at the University of Oklahoma in January 2014.

Mayfield was named starting QB of the Sooners before the beginning of the 2015 season. He would have an exceptional season, including passing for 3,700 passing yards and 37 touchdowns. His season would gain him a Heisman Trophy nod, where he would finish fourth in the voting. Mayfield’s performance also led Oklahoma to the College Football Playoff Semifinal — the Orange Bowl — where he and his team would lose to Clemson, 37-13.

Following his breakout year in 2015, he received several honors from Sporting News Player of the Year to the first of two consecutive Burlsworth Trophies, to his first Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year award, to his first nods as First-team Big 12 and All-American.

In 2016, Mayfield once again earned Heisman recognition for another terrific season. He would finish third in the voting after throwing for 40 TDs and 3,965 yards. That season, Mayfield brought the Sooners to the Sugar Bowl where they were victorious 35-19. He was awarded Sugar Bowl MVP for his performance.

Mayfield was arrested on February 25, 2017, in Washington County, Arkansas. Reports said he was arrested for public intoxication and fleeing charges.

His final season as a senior at Oklahoma in 2017 was a wild one. Mayfield’s antics started to question his maturity from his critics. But on the field, Mayfield was top dog. He threw for a record 41 touchdowns and whopping 4,340 yards. And after years of being close, Mayfield finally was awarded the Heisman Trophy. He would also take home the Maxwell Award, Walter Camp, and Davey O’ Brien Awards, and be named AP Player of the Year.

Despite all the talk about his maturity and controversy, Baker Mayfield is going to be a good quarterback in the NFL for a very long time. And if not that, he’ll be one of the best personalities to come into the league in quite some time.

Sam Darnold Net Worth 2018: How Much Is QB Worth?

Darnold is the latest quarterback prospect to emerge from Southern Cal, with many believing he could be in the mix for the No. 1 overall pick. With so many quarterback-needy teams inside of the top five, Darnold is expected to fly off the board early. Darnold has long been considered one of the top players on the Cleveland Browns’ draft board.

Darnold began his college career with a redshirt in 2015, sitting behind Cody Kessler and Max Browne. Browne eventually transferred, and Kessler moved to the NFL which opened the starting position for Darnold, earning first-team All-Pac-12 honors in 2017. A knock on Darnold is his ball security, but he has accuracy and the ability to smoothly go through his reads which will benefit him at the next level.

Darnold declared for the 2018 NFL Draft following his junior season at USC.

How much is the quarterback worth? Let’s take a look.

There are currently no official projections of Darnold’s net worth, but that will all be changing soon with the star signal-caller set to fly off the board early in the 2018 NFL Draft. Darnold is currently projected as the potential top pick of the Cleveland Browns.

As a projected top-five selection, Darnold is expected to make anywhere between $30 million as the No. 1 pick to $25 million as the No. 5 pick.


About Sam Darnold

Sam Darnold was born June 5, 1997, in Capistrano Beach, California. The quarterback was a star at San Clemente High School and played baseball and basketball along with football. As a recruit, Darnold was ranked as a four-star coming out of high school and had offers from a number of the top programs in the nation before ultimately choosing USC. Darnold was first discovered by USC coaches Clay Helton and Steve Sarkisian at a football camp.

Darnold first started for the Trojans as a redshirt freshman, setting multiple records and leading the team to a win in the 2017 Rose Bowl. In his first season as a starter, Darnold was the Pac-12 Offensive Freshman of the Year and the Archie Griffin Award winner. During his final season, Darnold earned First-team All-Pac-12 honors.

Darnold is the grandson of the legendary Dick Hammer, who played basketball at USC and was an Olympic volleyball player. Hammer also served as one of the Mr. Marlboro Men. Darnold’s mother is a physical education teacher at Shorecliffs Middle School in California and his older sister, Franki, played collegiate volleyball at the University of Rhode Island.
