Episode notes

This week was the 30th anniversary of Monday Night RAW. There was a refreshing focus on getting the younger talent of WWE over by association with the old guard. But there were still a lot of lows for every high.

Hulk Hogan? A cut down women’s cage match? A really long DX segment? We’ll discuss whether a great Bloodline segment can make up for all that.

The Main Event: Royal Rumble 2000

As we await the latest Royal Rumble, we’re going to go way back to the year 2000 and talk about that year’s version of the Rumble.This was where the Attitude Era began to gain steam. And it’s generally agreed to be one of the WWE’s best PPVs ever.

The Three Count:

Danielle put over the Bellas throwing shade at WWE.

Lindsey put over Nikki Bella’s upcoming walk down the aisle.

Hal put over Sami Zayn speaking the truth.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Lindsey Kelk.
