The time to shake things up again in WWE has come and gone, but who got the better of the 2018 Superstar Shake-up? Graham "GSM" Matthews and guest analyst are analyzing the all-new Raw and SmackDown Live rosters on this special edition of WrestleRant Radio in addition to talking about their experience at Raw in Hartford on Monday night! Which Superstars received the loudest reactions, and how did Jason enjoy his first ever experience at a Raw taping?

Plus, the duo discuss Jinder Mahal's move to Monday nights and where he'll be slotted on the show compared to his stint on SmackDown, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn returning to Raw, how Breezango could be the next New Day on Team Red, how Drew McIntyre's alliance with Dolph Ziggler could actually elevate Ziggler, why Bobby Roode needs to turn heel, Jeff Hardy taking the United States Championship to Tuesday nights, if Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville have any potential as singles stars on SmackDown, Samoa Joe being a perfect fit for the blue brand, Big Cass' ceiling on SmackDown, the state of SmackDown's women's and tag team divisions, the call-ups of Andrade "Cien" Almas and SAnitY (why no Nikki Cross?!), and much more!

With WrestleMania 34 weekend leaving the entire wrestling world buzzing, an hour almost isn't enough to dissect everything that occurred! But Graham "GSM" Matthews attempts to condense his thoughts on the highly newsworthy week in New Orleans on WrestleRant Radio, starting with his quick two cents on the IMPACT vs. Lucha Underground event as well as Ring of Honor's Supercard of Honor show from Saturday night. From there, he discusses the Hall of Fame ceremony and why WWE needs to cut back on the number of inductees going forward, why NXT TakeOver: New Orleans was the greatest TakeOver to date, all the new champions crowned at WrestleMania 34, Charlotte Flair ending Asuka's undefeated streak and what that might mean for next year's main event, and how the mixed tag team match stole the show.

Plus, GSM is talking all about the return of The Undertaker and why a rematch with John Cena should NOT happen, Daniel Bryan returning to the ring, how AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura underwhelmed, Brock Lesnar retaining his title against Roman Reigns in what was one of the worst WrestleMania main events in recent memory, several stars from NXT being called up to the main roster, Bobby Lashley finally returning to WWE, Paige becoming the new SmackDown General Manager, Carmella cashing in Money in the Bank, initial thoughts on heel Nakamura, and his predictions for the upcoming Superstar Shake-up! Who's going where?!

Reunited and it feels so good! Mere days ahead of one of the most exciting and anticipated wrestling weekends in recent memory, Graham "GSM" Matthews and Tommy Sharp reunite on Endicott College campus for WrestleRant Radio for the first time in nearly a year to preview WrestleMania 34! The dynamic duo are giving their full picks and predictions for every matchup on the card and breaking down the bouts including the rematch between Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship, the AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura WWE Championship dream match, The Miz's odds of escaping the event with his Intercontinental Championship reign intact, WrestleMania falling on Rusev Day, Alexa Bliss and Nia Jax finally going one-on-one, and Asuka colliding with Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women's Championship.

And that's only the first half of the loaded card! GSM and Tommy are also talking who Braun Strowman's mystery partner might be against The Bar, The Usos' toughest challenge to date as SmackDown Tag Team Champions versus The Bludgeon Brothers and The New Day, Cedric Alexander and Mustafa Ali meeting in the finals of the WWE Cruiserweight Championship Tournament, whether or not John Cena vs. The Undertaker will come to fruition, Ronda Rousey's in-ring debut alongside Kurt Angle against Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, and Daniel Bryan returning to the ring after three years to team with Shane McMahon to take on Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn!

There is arguably no better way to get hyped for WrestleMania season than to jam out to old 'Mania theme songs, and everything from "My Way" by Limp Bizkit to "Celebrate" by Kid Rock is covered in this super special TWO HOUR episode of WrestleRant Radio with Graham "GSM" Matthews and Jamie Lee Mac! The die-hard wrestling and music aficionados are discussing what they believe to be the best WrestleMania theme song of all-time is and why they're so important to the success of a show, how WrestleMania 17 was the end of an era in many ways, why some of the installments from the early 2000s are underrated, and how WrestleMania 21 formed the foundation for the future of the company.

Their trip down WrestleMania memory lane doesn't end there, though! They're talking what bands wrestling got them into (largely thanks to the Show of Shows), celebrity involvement and which artists deserve a WWE Hall of Fame nod, certain songs being edited off the WWE Network, which WrestleMania themes were most befitting of the event, WrestleMania 29 being a massive disappointment, where WrestleMania 30 ranks among the most memorable installments ever, and much more!

Will this week end up going down as one of the exciting in recent wrestling history?! YES! YES! YES! Two years removed from his heartbreaking in-ring retirement, Daniel Bryan has been cleared to compete by WWE, and joining Graham "GSM" Matthews on the latest WrestleRant to talk all about it is one of the biggest Bryan fans out there. They go in-depth with their respective reactions to the shocking news, what this could mean for Superstars and other athletes with history of concussions, when and what Bryan's first bout back might be, how he should be used moving forward as either a full-time or part-time competitor, potential opponents for him (and an interesting idea for a faction), his future with WWE, and so much more.

And that's not all! They delve into a plethora of other topics in the second half of the show including the build to John Cena vs. The Undertaker at WrestleMania 34 and what can be done to salvage it, Ultimate Deletion and why Bray Wyatt should be repackaged coming out of it, "Woken" Matt Hardy's WrestleMania role, current expectations for WrestleMania and whether it could wind up being one of the strongest shows in the event's illustrious history, how Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns is shaping up to be a blockbuster at The Show of Shows, and if they plan to be in attendance for WrestleMania in New Jersey/New York next year!

With WWE Fastlane 2018 officially in the books, all eyes are on WrestleMania 34 weekend and how it's currently shaping up to be one for the ages! Graham "GSM" Matthews kicks off the hour on WrestleRant Radio with his brief thoughts on Kid Rock entering the WWE Hall of Fame and Jeff Hardy's recent arrest (and how it might affect his in-ring return) before getting into his review of Ring of Honor's 16th Anniversary Show from last Friday night. What surprise appearances and title changes made it a newsworthy night?

That wasn't the only pay-per-view to take place in the last week, however, as Fastlane on Sunday set the stage for WrestleMania quite nicely. GSM discusses how the event exceeded expectations, the announcement of the Fabulous Moolah Memorial Battle Royal and why the glorification of the former women's champion needs to die, Randy Orton winning his first United States Championship, Brock Lesnar and Ronda Rousey not appearing as advertised on Raw, Braun Strowman entering the Raw Tag Team Championship picture, John Cena challenging The Undertaker to a match at 'Mania, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn destroying Shane McMahon, Cedric Alexander and Roderick Strong contesting a classic on 205 Live, and much more!
