WWE: CM Punk goes low, Roman Reigns snaps; Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY part; Seth Rollins stands tall
🎧 Listen to the full episode on Getting Over Wrestling Podcast
CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns feud
Punk said Reigns can't get it done by himself... He's not just going to beat him at WrestleMania. He's going to bury him next to his father.
Apparently, this is where you go, which is talking about dead parents. It was holy unnecessary, because Punk had already had the upper hand on Roman.
WrestleMania 42 broadcast changes
WrestleMania 42 will be starting at 6 p.m. each night with the first hour airing live for free on ESPN. This makes a ton of sense as a way to draw subscribers and attention.
Rhea Ripley vs. Jade Cargill
The clear disdain for Jade Cargill backstage is not something that you want to have to deal with keeping her champion going through the roster and having her beat Rhea Ripley. So this to me screams title change.
LA Knight championship prospects
I feel like the likelihood of LA Knight becoming world champion was closer to McIntyre, originally. Now, after Elimination Chamber, it feels closer to Finn Balor. Every time Knight is put in a big spot, something happens. Every single time.
Michael Cole commentary
Michael Cole, I'm afraid he's like borderline washed at this point, man. He's getting far too much wrong with far too much regularity. And it's starting to hurt the on-screen product.
Cody Rhodes WrestleMania plans
I wouldn't put the title back on Cody Rhodes until well after WrestleMania. I wouldn't even consider it. I'd go McIntyre, Orton, or no one else.
Monday Night Raw quality
Raw on Monday night was easily the best Raw of 2026. It blew away every other Monday night show this year. It was an A episode of television, almost like a polished Attitude Era Raw.
Mark Nash ring announcing
I'm out on Mark Nash after Elimination Chamber. He ain't it. Alicia Taylor is the best in the company and not having her in that spot, having him there instead, it made the show worse for me.
WWE production values
I don't think we're ever going back to the days of physical sets with designs and all kinds of stuff. We can only ever do screens.
