Top Marks - 34 - Royal Ronda

Just like Ronda Rousey at the Royal Rumble, this week's episode makes a point...! ...of discussing the road to WrestleMania. The #goodfriends are right back at it to make a little time for the Golden Lovers reunion (though we'll go more in-depth next week when Justin's finished watching New Beginnings), but mostly to discuss the top (count em) 1-2-3 stories this week in the world of professional wrestling. And they are: 1. Royal Rumble Review! Finally a Rumble match that delivers what fans want from the classic match type. But how was the PPV overall? 2. NXT TakeOver Philadelphia Review! An absolute barn-burner main event, but did it lack the consistency of previous TakeOvers? How do these shows continue to bring the goods every time? 3. Ronda Rousey debuts in WWE! How does change the landscape in the women's division? Are the women right to be annoyed? Why wasn't she on Raw? And is there any way Rousey's WWE tenure could already be described as "exhausting"? All that plus listener questions have us mapping out our own Five Moves Of Doom sequence, the origin of Mr. Charles Peanuts, and the returns of Keep It Or Kick It and Sunday Night Tweet! It's just what the world needed: another wrestling podcast. Top Marks is now on Patreon! Support the show at patreon.com/TopMarks and receive bonus episodes and extra goodies!
