After John Cena and AJ Styles, another WWE star makes statement on retiring – kicks off tour

John Cena is set to retire later this year, while AJ Styles has announced that he will be retiring in 2026. Following these announcements, another WWE star has now made a statement regarding his career plans.

Sheamus took to social media today after Monday Night RAW to let fans know that he has no intention of retiring anytime soon. The Celtic Warrior made a strong return to action during the Battle Royal on RAW, proving that he is as in-ring ready as ever. This marks the beginning of what he is calling his “Never Retiring Tour.”

On social media, Sheamus declared, “Sheamus ‘Never F***ing Retiring Tour’ started Monday 20th October 2025. Bangers never quit.” This statement suggests that as long as he is passionate about his matches and is actively competing, he plans to keep going and not hang up his boots.

Like John Cena and AJ Styles, Sheamus has enjoyed a long and successful career in WWE. However, there is still one goal he wants to achieve before calling it a day: capturing the Intercontinental Championship. The Celtic star has revealed that he has accomplished everything he set out to in his career except for winning this prestigious title.

Sheamus may have already found the perfect opportunity to chase that goal. During RAW, he seemingly began a feud with the Judgment Day faction after taking out JD McDonagh and Finn Balor. Although he was eventually thrown out, he fought his way back to the ringside area, signaling the start of a heated rivalry.

With Dominik Mysterio, a member of Judgment Day, currently holding the Intercontinental Championship, Sheamus might have just set his sights on reclaiming the honor. Fans can expect an exciting storyline to develop as the Celtic Warrior goes after the title he has long desired.

You can now withdraw your entire PF balance anytime

**You can now withdraw your entire PF balance anytime**
*By Dwaipayan Roy | Oct 13, 2025, 07:55 pm*

The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has taken a significant step to enhance the ease of living for its members. In a major decision, the EPFO’s Central Board of Trustees (CBT) has approved allowing members to withdraw up to 100% of their eligible Provident Fund (PF) balance. This withdrawal includes both the employee and employer contributions.

### Key Decision Announced at 238th CBT Meeting

The decision was made during the 238th meeting of the CBT held in New Delhi, chaired by Union Minister for Labour and Employment, Mansukh Mandaviya. This move is set to bring greater flexibility and convenience for EPFO members in managing their PF accounts.

### Major Changes in PF Withdrawal Rules

Previously, full withdrawal from the PF account was only permitted in cases of unemployment or retirement. Under the new liberalized rules, members can now access their entire eligible PF balance, subject to certain conditions and specific categories.

In addition to this, the CBT has simplified the existing partial withdrawal provisions. Earlier, there were 13 complex rules governing partial withdrawals, which have now been consolidated into a single, streamlined rule divided into three categories:

– Essential needs (such as illness, education, and marriage)
– Housing needs
– Special circumstances

### Increased Flexibility for Education and Marriage Withdrawals

The new rules also increase the limits on withdrawals for education and marriage expenses. Withdrawals for education purposes can now be made up to 10 times, while those for marriage can be done up to 5 times.

Moreover, the minimum service requirement to be eligible for all partial withdrawals has been uniformly reduced to just 12 months. This is a significant relaxation compared to the previous norms, where members had to justify their withdrawal reasons under “Special Circumstances,” often resulting in claim rejections.

### Member Benefits: Minimum Balance and Auto-Settlement of Claims

To ensure members continue to benefit from the high interest rates offered by EPFO (currently 8.25% per annum), the CBT has introduced a new rule requiring a ‘Minimum Balance’ of 25% of contributions to be maintained in the PF account at all times. This provision helps preserve the compounding benefits and aids in building a substantial retirement corpus.

The board has also announced a move towards greater automation, eliminating the need for any documentation for partial withdrawal claims. This paves the way for 100% auto settlement of claims, making the process faster and hassle-free for members.

This landmark decision by the EPFO is expected to bring greater financial flexibility to millions of PF members across India, enabling them to access their funds effortlessly when needed.

Apple set for an executive reshuffle before end of 2025

**Apple Set for Major Executive Reshuffle Ahead of 2025**

*By Dwaipayan Roy | Oct 11, 2025, 02:26 PM*

Apple is gearing up for a significant executive reshuffle before the end of 2025, coinciding with the upcoming retirement of its Chief Operating Officer (COO), Jeff Williams. This move is part of a broader strategy to streamline the company’s leadership and position Apple for future growth.

### Eddy Cue Expands Role Ahead of Health+ Launch

Eddy Cue, currently Apple’s services chief overseeing streaming and cloud services, will take on additional responsibilities leading the company’s health and fitness teams. This transition comes in light of Apple’s much-anticipated Health+ subscription service, set to launch in 2026. The AI-powered platform aims to provide personalized guidance on exercise, nutrition, and sleep, underscoring Apple’s commitment to integrating health and wellness into its ecosystem.

### Craig Federighi Takes on watchOS Oversight

Craig Federighi, Apple’s software chief, will also assume oversight of watchOS, adding to his current duties managing Siri and visionOS for the Vision Pro headset. This adjustment highlights Apple’s focus on enhancing software quality across its wearable devices, particularly the Apple Watch. Meanwhile, John Ternus has been granted full control over Apple Watch engineering, reinforcing Apple’s holistic approach to both hardware and software development.

### Additional Leadership Changes

Several other leadership shifts are underway. John Giannandrea, Apple’s AI chief, is slated to be replaced, while Lisa Jackson, who heads environment and government affairs, is reportedly considering retirement. Additionally, Johny Srouji, the company’s chip design lead, is evaluating his future at Apple.

These changes reflect Apple’s strategic move to realign its leadership in key areas such as wellness, wearables, and AI-driven services, setting the stage for the company’s next chapter of innovation and growth.

Big Update On EPFO Rules, Withdrawal To Become Easier For Members; Details Inside

New Delhi: The Central Government is considering simplifying the withdrawal rules of the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). According to a report by Moneycontrol, the initiative aims to provide members with greater flexibility in managing their retirement funds based on their financial needs.

Two senior government officials revealed that the plan includes making it easier for EPFO members to withdraw funds for purposes such as buying a house, marriage, or education. While no fixed timeline has been announced, these changes could be implemented within a year.

### What Are the Current EPFO Rules?

Currently, EPFO members can withdraw their entire fund only upon reaching the age of 58 or if they remain unemployed for more than two months. For other purposes, several strict conditions apply:

– **Marriage:** Members can withdraw only up to 50 percent of the employee’s contribution plus interest. Additionally, the member must have completed at least 7 years of continuous service.

– **Home Purchase or Construction:** Members can withdraw up to 90 percent of their fund. The property must be registered in the name of the member, their spouse, or jointly. A minimum of 3 years of service is also required.

### What Is Likely to Change?

The government is considering allowing EPFO members to withdraw full or partial savings every 10 years. This change would grant members more control over their funds, enabling them to use their savings when genuinely needed.

### Experts Welcome the Move

Finance and legal experts have expressed support for relaxing the withdrawal rules, emphasizing that it will benefit low and middle-income workers. Easier access to their funds means they can meet urgent financial needs without resorting to loans. At present, the withdrawal process is encumbered with restrictions such as minimum years of service, withdrawal limits, frequency caps, and extensive paperwork.

### Need for a Balanced Approach

Experts also caution that while easing withdrawal rules is a positive step, it is crucial to safeguard the retirement purpose of the EPF. They advocate for a balanced policy that enables members to access their funds conveniently, without compromising their long-term retirement savings.

By streamlining EPFO withdrawal rules, the government aims to provide better financial flexibility while ensuring the security of members’ retirement funds. Members and experts alike will be watching closely as these potential changes develop.
