WrestleRant Radio - January 25, 2018: Royal Rumble 2018 and NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia Predictions! (ft. RJ Marceau)

Royal Rumble week is finally upon us, and before they head off to Philadelphia for the blockbuster weekend, Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau reunite on WrestleRant Radio for the first time in 2018 to preview both NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia and the Royal Rumble! But first, hear their two cents on the breaking news regarding the return of the XFL in 2020 and whether it will be a success this time around, what rules will be in place, Enzo Amore's WWE release and why he won't be missed on the roster, and quick thoughts on Raw 25 from Monday night.

From there, GSM and RJ discuss potential opponents for NXT Tag Team Champions The Undisputed Era and why Authors of Pain should be called up, why Shayna Baszler must win the NXT Women's Championship on Saturday, the chances of Tomoasso Ciampa screwing Johnny Gargano out of the NXT Championship, Seth Rollins vs. Jason Jordan happening at WrestleMania 34 and if they will drop the Raw Tag Team Championship on Sunday, WWE dropping the ball on Braun Strowman, the first-ever women's Royal Rumble match and what role Stephanie McMahon might play (and why she shouldn't), their final picks for who will win the men's Rumble match, and much more!
