    Happy Royal Rumble weekend!

    We’ve got to make some obligatory predictions for the official start to the road to WrestleMania.

    Then we welcome former WWE Champion Ettore “Big E” Ewen. It’s been some time since we’ve seen him in a wrestling ring. But he’s stayed extremely busy: You can catch him on the Peacock series “Laid” and on Netflix’s “WWE RAW Classics.”

    He’ll tell us about what it’s been like transitioning from wrestling to acting, where he plans to pour his creative energy and why mental health advocacy is so important to him.

    Ep. 427: Saturday Night’s Main Event 2

    Time is running out to get our Philly themed Ice Cream Christmas logo! Go get it now at Maxfunstore.com.

    Hal, Danielle and Lindsey sit at the precipice of back-to-back weekends with big shows from WWE.

    There’s titles on the line with  Jey Uso vs. Gunther for World Championship, Sheamus vs. Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Title and Rhea Ripley vs. Nia Jax for the women’s World title. But while the team has strong opinions about who will win, there are also a lot of questions about the overall direction of the stars.

    Plus: it’s another reminder that we’re due for another muppets x WWE crossover.

    The Main Event

    It's back to back weekends of Saturday shows, so let's pre-game the one that happens on the day this episode drops: the second modern edition of Saturday Nights' Main Event. But we face an important question: In a world with more WWE shows than ever, how long until the novelty of Saturday night's main event wears off?

    Three Count

    Hal put over Joe Hendry vs. John Cena.

    Lindsey put over Sheamus’ first pilates class!

    2024 was a big year for wrestling. Just look at the emotional moments: Cody Rhodes at last finished the story and ended Roman Reigns’ historic title reign; Drew McIntyre had a blood feud for the ages; Toni Storm took the women’s division in AEW to a new level.

    Plus we had Bobby Lashley and MVP establishing the Hurt Syndicate; Rhea Ripley taking her rightful place as a top babyface and somehow the Bloodline remains compelling after four years of story. 

    In the first of two 2024/2025 episodes we breakdown some highlights!
