WWE: Gauntlet match greatness, McIntyre's Royal Rumble status
from Getting Over: Wrestling Podcast · host Adam Silverstein
With less than three weeks until the Royal Rumble, host Adam Silverstein and co-host Chris Vannini examine WWE's build to its first and one of its biggest pay-per-views of the entire year. The guys open with The Main Event [6:54] where Drew McIntyre's COVID-19 absence, the idea behind the Goldberg match and hot-shot booking with Triple H and Randy Orton are the hottest topics for Raw. On the SmackDown side, another great WWE gauntlet match appears to have set in motion a face turn for Shinsuke Nakamura, a unique opportunity for Adam Pearce and an even stronger booking direction for Roman Reigns. "The Silver King" and "Vintage" also discuss their Royal Rumble expectations [50:33], the ultimate Big Meaty moment with Keith Lee, WWE completely forgetting about its women's champions [1:10:40], a title change and a disappointing Raw that featured three mind-boggling double-match segments.
