WWE held its ninth annual not-so-Extreme Rules pay-per-view last Sunday night, ending on a high note as Samoa Joe earned the right to face Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at Great Balls of Fire! Graham "GSM" Matthews and special guest Noah Wade (making his WrestleRant Radio debut) break down the entire event and give their thoughts on the Titus Brand, The Miz regaining the Intercontinental Championship from Dean Ambrose in an entertaining opener, the mixed tag team wrong and what's wrong with the Cruierweight division, Elias Samson's performance and his potential on Raw, and the absolutely awful Kendo Stick on a Pole match and why WWE is doing Bayley no favors with their bad booking of her.
From there, the duo discuss the confusing cage match between The Hardy Boyz and Sheamus and Cesaro and if Matt and Jeff are "broken" bound, Neville killing it as Cruiserweight Champion and what's next for Austin Aries following his latest loss, Joe winning the blockbuster main event and his critically-acclaimed segment with Paul Heyman on Raw, and much more!

This past week's Memorial Day edition of Raw was pretty polarizing to say the least, and Graham "GSM" Matthews has plenty to say about the show on the latest WrestleRant Radio! He's giving his candid thoughts on the strange albeit enjoyable six-man tag team match to kick off the evening, Samoa Joe winning a Triple Threat match against Bray Wyatt and Finn Balor, Sasha Banks' involvement in the Rich Swann vs. Noam Dar feud and why it isn't a burial for her, why the Apollo Crews and Titus O'Neil pairing could have potential, the absolutely atrocious This Is Your Life segment with Alexa Bliss and Bayley, the Cruiserweight division dying a death, and an excellent main event between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
Plus, GSM reviews Tuesday's edition of SmackDown Live with Sami Zayn and Shinsuke Nakamura teaming up in tag team action, Chris Jericho possibly returning sooner rather than later, The New Day's grand return, the announcement of the first-ever women's Money in the Bank Ladder match, Breezango gradually getting over, why the Jinder Mahal vs. Randy Orton feud just isn't working, and Dolph Ziggler beating AJ Styles clean in the main event.
Plus, stay tuned for Extreme Rules predictions at the end of the episode!
