Before breaking down the past week in WWE, Graham "GSM" Matthews kicks off the latest WrestleRant Radio with plenty of praise for IMPACT's Slammiversary pay-per-view event! He discusses how the event served as a turning point for the company, highlighted by an excellent world championship main event as well as multiple other matches that are worth seeking out.
Unfortunately, WWE Raw from the next night wasn't nearly as exciting, and GSM wastes no time in ranting about the show and the current sad state of the program from Roman Reigns facing Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship (again) at SummerSlam, the never-ending feud over the Raw Tag Team Championship, where the Sasha Banks and Bayley storyline is headed, Braun Strowman attacking Jinder Mahal, and Ember Moon's latest pointless victory over Liv Morgan. On the bright side, WWE announced this week the first-ever all-women's pay-per-view, Evolution, for late October! Which matches are most likely set to take place? From there, GSM gives his thoughts on Randy Orton's great promo from the start of SmackDown Live, Paige firing James Ellsworth, AJ Styles' WWE Championship challenger for SummerSlam, who should win the SmackDown Tag Team Championship Tournament, the premiere of Miz & Mrs., Drew Gulak winning a Fatal 4-Way on 205 Live, Tommaso Ciampa capturing the NXT Championship, and much more!

In light of an extremely underwhelming Extreme Rules pay-per-view last Sunday night, Graham "GSM" Matthews looks ahead to what should be a solid Slammiversary pay-per-view from IMPACT this coming weekend and so much more! After giving his candid thoughts on Hulk Hogan being "reinstated" into the WWE Hall of Fame, GSM breaks down Extreme Rules and the biggest highlights and low points from the night. What the hell has happened to Asuka? Why did Bobby Lashley beat Roman Reigns clean? Are Rusev and Aiden English on the verge of a split? What made the main event so disappointing?
Plus, GSM has plenty to say about Monday's fairly uneventful episode of Raw despite two terrific Triple Threat matches, who Brock Lesnar will undoubtedly face at SummerSlam, the lack of logic behind Ronda Rousey's "suspension," Randy Orton's surprise heel turn and the cringeworthy ending to SmackDown Live, Daniel Bryan and The Miz possibly happening at SummerSlam, another enjoyable edition of 205 Live, and the women taking center stage on this week's NXT.
