Edge and Christian open today’s show speaking about the announcement of the inaugural Women’s Royal Rumble match. Christian thinks that this is another great step in the right direction for women’s professional wrestling, and Edge completely agrees. Edge thinks that it’s only a matter of time before the Women main event WrestleMania, and that historic match might even piggyback off of this Rumble match.

Edge welcomes his wife, Beth Phoenix to the show to discuss this huge announcement. Phoenix says that hearing this announcement was one of the proudest moments in her professional life. During her time in WWE, all the women felt like they could sell tickets like the men but they weren’t presented in a situation to do so. She’s happy for this generation of women’s wrestlers who finally have that opportunity.

Phoenix informs that her phone has been blowing up since this announcement with questions regarding her potential return for this Rumble. She mentions that it’s a great feeling to receive those messages and questions, and this just proves that there’s a bunch of buzz surrounding this match.

Dave Meltzer reported on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Radio that Vince McMahon is re-launching the XFL but not under the parent company of WWE.

WWE has issued a statement saying that Vince McMahon will launch Alpha Entertainment, which will be separate from WWE because the WWE stock would tank if they announced the return of XFL. Vince is using his own money and not WWE’s money. Meltzer explained that Vince is looking at going into sports entertainment and he’s looking at Professional Football.

WWE started trademarking XFL a couple months ago and the announcement is expected to be made sometime next month.

We will keep you updated if we receive more details regarding the re-launch of XFL.

Ryan Satin & James McKenna of Pro Wrestling Sheet mentioned on an installment of Wrestling Sheet Radio that there has been a lot of talk within WWE about doing a first-ever Women’s Elimination Chamber match. While very little details were elaborated, it’s worth mentioning that Kurt Angle recently teased a possible Women’s Chamber match during a Q&A session on his Facebook page.

With The Elimination Chamber pay-per-view set to take place in February of 2018, it’s very possible that the company could make the announcement sometime in the coming months.
