We got a winner!! Prediction game officially settled 👀

Now it’s time for the fallout. We’re getting into everything coming out of WWE WrestleMania 42 and where things are headed next. Ethan Page gets the call to WWE Raw, Roman Reigns sends a warning for the summer, CM Punk goes viral after that fan moment, and Jacob Fatu steps up with a World Heavyweight Title challenge.

Later on, we get into Mark Shapiro saying TKO Group Holdings has full control over creative… yeah, we gotta talk about that. Plus more.

New week, WrestleMania around the corner so yeah, we’re doing predictions.

We hit the highlights: Pat McAfee bringing chaos, whatever Randy Orton had going on, Drew McIntyre running through Jacob Fatu, and Sami Zayn speaking. RAW side Gunther, Liv Morgan, plus Roman Reigns and CM Punk crossing paths before Mania. Oh, and Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar is locked in.

Then it’s straight predictions who’s winning, what makes sense, and what probably won’t. And more.

Yeah… this week was kinda trash, but we still got some stuff to talk about. Randy Orton speaks, Pat McAfee randomly pops in, and somehow Lil Yachty is in the mix with Trick Williams. Sami Zayn vs. Carmelo Hayes for the U.S. Title should’ve been the highlight… but did it really hit like that?

RAW didn’t do much to save it either. CM Punk teases something big, WrestleMania keeps getting loaded (for better or worse), and you’ve got Seth Rollins, Paul Heyman, and Gunther moving pieces around without anything really landing yet. Rey Mysterio gets added to the ladder match, Bron Breakker might be close to returning, and Liv Morgan could be building something—but it all feels like a setup with no payoff.

We wrap it up with Winners and Losers with Avery Thee Chef and get into the real conversations—like is Jeff Hardy actually better than Rob Van Dam in the air, what’s going wrong with this WrestleMania build, and yeah… why is John Cena hosting? And more.

This week we get straight into the chaos—Drew McIntyre and Randy Orton grab the mic, with Orton calling out Matt Cardona for an apology. Sami Zayn takes on Aleister Black, Jade Cargill and Rhea Ripley come face-to-face, and Carmelo Hayes defends the U.S. title against Ilja Dragunov. Brock Lesnar speaks, The Vision collide with The Usos, Paul Heyman calls out Seth Rollins, and Penta defends the IC title against Dominik Mysterio. It all builds to CM Punk and Roman Reigns meeting in the ring… and much more.
