SNME 149: Royal Rumble 2021

“A pleasant surprise” is the phrase of the night as Jason Agnew and Dan “The Mouth” Lovranski recap and review WWE’s Royal Rumble 2021.

After a very lackluster build to WWE’s signature kick-off event of the wrestling calendar year, Edge and Bianca Bel Air stood tall at the end of their respective Rumbles while Goldberg ended up flat on his back after a very short match with Drew McIntyre, all very logical booking and a great start on the road to Wrestlemania.

Jason and Dan give their thoughts on the event, take listeners phone calls and welcome on Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter to get his take on the Rumble and also chat about WWE’s new deal with the NBC Peacock streaming service, and details on Shaq working a match with Cody Rhodes.
