There was a ton of news (both good and bad) on the AEW front this week, but before Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau get into any of it, they start off WrestleRant Radio with their thoughts on WWE reportedly restricting Superstars' usage of third-party affiliates like Twitch and Cameo and the issues with charging fans an arm and a leg on the latter for a simple shout-out. They also address the departure of AOP from WWE and if the company missed the boat with them as a tag team.
In their review of AEW All Out from Saturday, the duo discuss why the Tooth and Nail match didn't belong on the main card after all, Lance Archer winning the 21-man Casino Battle Royale, the embarrassment surrounding the situation with Matt Hardy, Hikaru Shida vs. Thunder Rosa stealing the show, why the eight-man tag team match was pointless, what's next for "Hangman" Adam Cole and Kenny Omega following their loss of the AEW World Tag Team Championship to FTR, how the Mimosa Mayhem match fell flat and where Orange Cassidy goes from here, Jon Moxley vs. MJF for the AEW World Championship, the signings of Miro and Tay Conti, and more! GSM and RJ also give their quick two cents on Cedric Alexander joining The Hurt Business, Peyton Royce and Billie Kay having a match out of nowhere, Keith Lee's latest disqualification loss to Randy Orton, Dominik Mysterio beating Murphy in a Street Fight, Finn Balor becoming a two-time NXT Champion, and if Mercedes Mercedes is main roster bound coming off her defeat to Rhea Ripley in the main event of NXT.

New Number One Contender Emerges; Bayley Betrays Banks (WWE SmackDown Review - September 4, 2020)9/5/2020 Things finally seem to be moving in the right direction over on Friday Night SmackDown, at least if the well-received September 4, 2020 edition was any indication. Graham "GSM" Matthews reviews the above-average episode and shares his thoughts on Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman explaining their alliance and potential feuds for a heel Reigns, Heavy Machinery taking on The Miz and Morrison and how Otis can cash in the Money in the Bank briefcase (but not successfully), Sheamus brutalizing Big E, Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax defending the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship, Bayley betraying Sasha Banks and how long WWE should wait to do the match, developments in the Intercontinental Championship picture, a new member of the Firefly Fun House being teased, Jey Uso becoming the new number one contender to Roman Reigns' Universal Championship at Clash of Champions and why it works (as well as what doesn't make sense about it), and more!
Roman Reigns is officially a heel in WWE and hell may have just frozen over. Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau open WrestleRant Radio discussing the turn and how his alliance with Paul Heyman makes all the sense in the world, his trajectory as the new Universal Champion, if this makes Bray Wyatt the new top babyface on SmackDown, and Superstars they'd like to see him feud with. They then get into the rest of the Payback pay-per-view including Bobby Lashley becoming the new United States Champion, Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax becoming the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Keith Lee upsetting Randy Orton, and Dominik Mysterio's latest standout performance.
The duo also discuss Murphy potentially breaking away from Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre vs. Orton for the WWE Championship again at Clash of Champions, The IIconics splitting up, Mauro Ranallo leaving NXT, the controversial to the 60-minute Iron Man match on NXT and who will win the NXT Championship next week, and full predictions and preview for Saturday's AEW All Out pay-per-view event!
