Happy Royal Rumble weekend!

We’ve got to make some obligatory predictions for the official start to the road to WrestleMania.

Then we welcome former WWE Champion Ettore “Big E” Ewen. It’s been some time since we’ve seen him in a wrestling ring. But he’s stayed extremely busy: You can catch him on the Peacock series “Laid” and on Netflix’s “WWE RAW Classics.”

He’ll tell us about what it’s been like transitioning from wrestling to acting, where he plans to pour his creative energy and why mental health advocacy is so important to him.
