It's the annual WrestleMania roundtable on WrestleRant Radio, and Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau are bringing in the big guns! Joining them for their complete preview of WrestleMania 38 this weekend is New Rockstars' own Tommy Bechtold, and they waste no time in talking NXT Stand & Deliver on Saturday afternoon and other thoughts on the current WWE product.
Nothing is off limits in their analysis of WrestleMania 38 Night 1 as the trio delve into Seth Rollins' mystery opponent and why it needs to be Cody Rhodes, Rhodes' ceiling for success in WWE and how his return should be presented, an uninspiring undercard featuring three matches that should be on SmackDown, Logan Paul's grand in-ring debut and how he could exceed expectations, if there's a chance Becky Lynch will retain the Raw Women's Championship against Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women's Championship, and why "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's appearance on The KO Show should headline the event.
GSM, RJ and Tommy then look at Night 2's card and share their two cents on who has the best chance of leaving with the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship, Bobby Lashley returning to face Omos and making a case for either outcome, how Sami Zayn vs. Johnny Knoxville and Austin Theory vs. Pat McAfee can both be attraction matches, if RK-Bro is on the verge of splitting up, AJ Styles vs. Edge, and who will reign supreme in the Championship Unification main event between Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns!
