Summary
WWE hit rock bottom on Monday night, and while Brian Campbell prefers not to talk about it, Adam Silverstein opens the show with an epic rant in an attempt to set the company straight. The guys break down what was so bad about Raw and whether SmackDown Live was a saving grace on Tuesday. Plus, is Daniel Bryan sneakily becoming the best wrestler in the world? BC and The Silver King also welcome in Kevin Owens to discuss his return to the squared circle and how plans changed at WrestleMania 35, as well as Adam "Hangman" Page to talk about the formation of AEW and the upcoming Double or Nothing pay-per-view.
