Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau waste no time on this week's WrestleRant Radio reacting to WWE revealing this year's Raw and SmackDown Survivor Series teams on... Twitter. Yes, really. They discuss the laziness behind the build for the pay-per-view this year and which teams have the early advantage before diving into another above-average edition of Raw from Monday night. Hear their thoughts on Kevin Owens' apparent heel turn and where it might be going before he likely leaves the company, Chad Gable getting another opportunity to shine on his own, the dominant return of Bobby Lashley, if a Mysterio vs. Mysterio feud is coming sooner rather than later, and Liv Morgan becoming the new number one contender to the Raw Women's Championship.
The duo also analyze Tuesday's edition of NXT and the overall state of the brand, including the announcement that WarGames is coming back as its own event again on December 5th. Is it necessary this year? Who are the top prospects on the show right now? And is Bron Breakker being groomed for an imminent call-up to the main roster? After answering those questions, they review an enjoyable edition of AEW Dynamite featuring an Adam Cole and Bobby Fish interaction, an AEW World Championship contract signing, and a little bit of everything.
Stick around for their FULL PREDICTIONS for Full Gear this Saturday at the very end!
