With Akuma’s release we brought the first chapter of Street Fighter 6 to a close. But that means that the cycle starts once more and we again speculate on which characters are coming to SF6. Season 1 was riddled with leaks and fans ended up prematurely knowing the first season of DLC fighters fairly early on. But now, we’re all in the dark. So here are some speculative ideas on who might be coming to SF6.
One of the most beloved (and feared) characters in the Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Makoto is due for an update.

Welcome to the NFL offseason, where receivers get paid lots of money (just ask Justin Jefferson, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jaylen Waddle and Nico Collins), the NFL continues to push for an 18-game season, the league and NFLPA discuss ways to ruin the offseason calendar and teams continue to go through their OTAs and mandatory minicamps. 
So we asked our MMQB staff to answer a series of eight questions over the next two weeks. They’ll debate the best and worst moves, the most and least improved teams, the best coaching move and more.

Novak Djokovic faced quite a difficult test during his fourth round match at the French Open on Monday.
The World No. 1 defeated No. 23 Francisco Cerúndolo after being down 2–1 sets in a five-set thriller, 6–1, 5–7, 3–6, 7–5, 6–3. The match lasted four hours and 39 minutes.
Djokovic was close to losing the match in the fourth set as Cerúndolo held a 4–2 lead. The 24-time Grand Slam champion came back to tie 4–4, then eventually won the set. This momentum propelled him to victory in the final set.

At long last, the saga is over.

The WNBA is being watched and talked about this season like never before – as if it is a real league. It’s right up there with the other secondary, major professional leagues like the NHL, NBA and MLB behind the monster NFL. From 1997 through 2023, the WNBA wasn’t one of those. Few watched, and barely anyone talked about it.
On Sunday and Monday, national radio sports shows focused on Caitlin Clark, and the NBA and NHL are in the midst of their playoff finals. 
OPINION: Mean Girls Reboot – Angel Vs.

The overwhelming majority of folks in the media, and just the general population of sports fans, have been trying to present this ridiculous, politically-driven theory that the sports world is all of a sudden talking about the WNBA because of how great the 2024 draft class as a whole was.
The actual reality – a place that same crowd refuses to visit – is that Caitlin Clark is the one and only reason people who have never paid any attention at all to the WNBA are choosing to do so.

We’re about to find out if the NHL can successfully market its best player (Connor McDavid) during its biggest event (the Stanley Cup Final) to an American audience. Because McDavid is about the only draw that the Edmonton Oilers vs. the Florida Panthers Final has for hockey fans in the United States.
Sure, there are some Florida Panthers fans who started watching hockey when Florida got good a few years ago. Before I get emails from those tens of fans, just understand that the television ratings don’t lie.

However, the 27-year-old will not be in Dublin, Ohio. Instead, he will head home to Scotland and spend time with his family.
