Ep. 27: The 2017 Royal Rumble Special

For the last two years, the Royal Rumble has been a controversial affair. The previous winners have led to many accusations that the WWE doesn’t understand its audience anymore. Was this year any different? Well… kinda. We’re breaking down everything we cared about from the Rumble… including what was probably the biggest troll job the company has ever done: Roman Reigns at Number 30. Plus, a Big Four Pay Per View on Sunday means that we also get a new NXT TakeOver on Saturday. And while there was noticeably less stay power on this week’s show than usual, most people on the card raised their stock on the developmental brand. We’ll break down all the biggest happenings from both shows, including the debut of Samoa Joe… and the injury of Seth Rollins. Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Mike Eagle.
