Where to watch the 2023 Academy of Country Music Awards

Y’all ready to celebrate? The top country music stars and songs are set to be honored at the 2023 Academy of Country Music Awards. Believe it or not, this is the 58th edition of the awards show, which started all the way back in 1966. Buck Owens and Bonnie Owens were the first winners of the Male and Female Performer of the Year awards, respectively, and the show has honored such legends as Reba McEntire, Hank Williams, Jr., Shania Twain, Kenny Rogers, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, and many more throughout the decades.

This year’s ceremony will be hosted by a pair of ACM legends, Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks. Dolly’s done hosting duties before, but this is Brooks’ first time as a host of the ceremony. Let’s hope he leaves his alt-music alter-ego, Chris Gaines, at home. Find out how to watch the Academy of Country Music Awards below!

Where to watch NXT Vengeance Day 2024 live stream: date, start time, match card
Logo for NXT Vengeance Day 2024.

NXT kicks off its 2024 Premium Live Event schedule with the 2024 Vengeance Day. From 2001-2011, Vengeance was a WWE pay-per-view featuring the top wrestlers from Raw or SmackDown, depending on the year. The event experienced a hiatus for 10 years before its reincarnation as an NXT show in 2021. Vengeance Day 2024 is the fourth iteration of the NXT brand.

The main event will feature Ilja Dragunov defending his NXT Championship against Trick Williams. Expect "Whoop That Trick Chants" during this match, as fans have rallied behind Williams the last few months. Williams is even over with the WWE audience, as evidenced by the loud pop he received on the January 26 episode of SmackDown. Williams is in a unique situation as he attempts to pull a doubleheader at Vengeance Day. Earlier in the night, Williams will team with Carmelo Hayes to face Baron Corbin and Bron Breakker in the Men's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Finals.

Where to watch the 2024 NFL Pro Bowl Games live stream
Wide shot of the NFL Pro Bowl Week sign.

For the second straight year, the NFL will present the Pro Bowl Games, a reimagined two-day event featuring the league's top players participating in multiple skills challenges. In years past, the Pro Bowl was virtually unwatchable. The players did not want to give maximum effort or tackle each other for fear of injury. In 2023, the NFL removed the tackle football game in favor of the Pro Bowl Games, which returns in 2024 from Orlando, Florida.

The first day of the competition – The Skills Showdown – aired on Thursday and featured precision passing and dodgeball. Sunday's Pro Bowl Games competition will feature a flag football competition with games of move the chains, gridiron gauntlet, and tug of war.
