WrestleRant Radio

On this week's WrestleRant Radio, Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau chat a little UFC before sharing quick thoughts on WWE's Worlds Collide event and reviewing Money in the Bank! Hear their thoughts on Naomi winning the women's Money in the Bank briefcase and when she could cash in, Dominik Mysterio successfully defending the Intercontinental Championship against Octagon Jr., Becky Lynch capturing the Women's Intercontinental Championship and why Lynch vs. Lyra Valkyria has been one of WWE's best feuds of the year so far, Bayley's return on Raw and how that affects Evolution, Jacob Fatu finally turning on Solo Sikoa, Seth Rollins becoming Mr. Money in the Bank and what this latest loss for LA Knight means going forward, Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso besting John Cena and Logan Paul in a tag team main event, R-Truth returning as Ron Killings and a complete breakdown of the unprecedented situation.

Graham "GSM" Matthews is eating his hat (okay, not literally) to kick off WrestleRant Radio this week after admitting RJ Marceau was right: Mariah May has officially arrived in WWE! They get into her departure from AEW and quick debut on NXT this past Tuesday, why it's smart for her to head there first ahead of a main roster run, her successful AEW run and if Tony Khan could be hesitant to push certain people in the future in fear they'll jump to WWE, and more!

The duo are also discussing R-Truth, Carlito and Valhalla (a.k.a. Sarah Lorgan) not having their contracts renewed by WWE, why releases are the nature of the beast but Truth being an exception, loyalty not meaning a damn thing to the TKO regime, and if fans are overreacting to the news. Plus, GSM and RJ give their complete preview and predictions for this weekend's Worlds Collide and Money in the Bank premium live events!

It might be old news at this point, but Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau have a lot to say to kick off WrestleRant Radio about WWE bumping WrestleMania 42 from New Orleans! Hear their thoughts on why returning to Las Vegas so soon may not necessarily be a bad thing, the economics behind it and how it could turn into something we see more often in the future, and why it shouldn't have been announced for New Orleans in the first place.

Plus, they're talking the newly-announced events for Atlanta in July and if that's Goldberg will in fact have his retirement match, an overview of the latest installment of Saturday Night's Main Event and how they're treated like glorified house shows, Seth Rollins recruiting Bronson Reed and why it's a brilliant move, Cody Rhodes returning and what that means for a potential rematch at SummerSlam, quick thoughts on NXT Battleground and the two title changes that took place on Tuesday's NXT, why Stephanie Vaquer and Jordynne Grace reportedly being called up imminently could be a cause for concern, a review of AEW Double or Nothing with what worked and what didn't, and more!

It's all about the predictions on this week's WrestleRant Radio with Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau giving their picks and previews for WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, NXT Battleground and AEW Double or Nothing! Hear their thoughts on Tyrese Haliburton's Raw segment, if Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker will recruit a new member this weekend, how an R-Truth win over John Cena might be possible, a rant on Logan Paul having peaked and Karrion Kross' absence on WWE TV, if Trick Williams will win the TNA World Championship, who will win the men's and women's Owen Hart Cups, the lack of logic behind Swerve Strickland and Adam Page potentially teaming up, and more!

Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau open this week's WrestleRant Radio remembering Terry "Sabu" Brunk following his passing over the weekend, his influence on the industry, the legacy he leaves behind and their favorite matches of his. They then get into their in-depth review of WWE's Backlash premium live event including Jeff Cobb's debut and how he'll fit into the fold, Lyra Valkyria and Becky Lynch stealing the show, if outside interference is becoming a recurring problem in WWE, what worked (and what didn't) about Gunther vs. Pat McAfee, and if the John Cena vs. Randy Orton main event exceeded expectations.

GSM and RJ are also discussing WWE's upcoming stretch of shows, if they're spreading themselves too thin and if it'll have a negative effect on the company's creative direction, if Goldberg's return is imminent with Gunther challenging for the World Heavyweight Championship on the June 9th Raw, WWE's Rhea Ripley problem and how it's affecting newcomers Roxanne Perez and Giulia, and more!

On the May 8, 2025 edition of WrestleRant Radio, Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau are getting BRUTALLY HONEST about WWE's latest round of releases: Braun Strowman, Dakota Kai, Shayna Baszler, Cora Jade, Shotzi and many more. Who was the biggest (and least) surprise of the bunch? Who was the most underutilized? Were WWE's "reasons" for releasing talent this time around legitimate? Will any of them end up in AEW eventually?

After answering all of those questions and much more, the duo discuss the hot World Heavyweight Championship main event from Monday's Raw and give their COMPLETE PREDICTIONS for Saturday's WWE Backlash premium live event featuring John Cena vs. Randy Orton for the Undisputed WWE Championship!

After quickly giving some of their favorite Pixar picks, Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau kick off their Raw review on WrestleRant Radio discussing Seth Rollins' new group rejecting Sami Zayn on Monday night, the report that they may not be adding new members and why Rollins vs. Bron Breakker at WrestleMania 42 isn't so far-fetched. Plus, they talk Rollins getting cheered by the crowd and if WWE has a heel problem (which includes John Cena, by the way). Is it the fault of the fans, the company or both?

Plus, they get into their thoughts on Raw's stacked women's division and if Roxanne Perez and Giulia are officially a part of the main roster, Stephanie Vaquer's status, Liv Morgan taking time off to film a movie, Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria's great segment to set up their Backlash bout, Lynch likely winning the Women's Intercontinental Championship and why it isn't a bad idea, other confirmed matches for Backlash including Gunther vs. Pat McAfee and their defense of it, Logan Paul being Jey Uso's first World Heavyweight Championship challenger, who has the higher ceiling in their return run between Rusev and Aleister Black, and more!
