Lawler is joined on today’s show by his co-host, Glenn Moore.

When Lawler first walked back into The Manhattan Center last Monday, he quickly realized how far WWE has come in terms of what buildings they host their shows in. The building was smaller than he remembered, but that’s probably because he’s been accustomed to working in arenas for the last several years.

He had an amazing time paying tribute to the history of RAW on this show, and it was also great seeing so many of his old friends. He points out that the WWE Universe tuned in to see a lot of the legends of days gone by, and the ratings for this show did a great number for WWE. He likes to think that he and Jim Ross reuniting had at least a small part in those fans tuning into the show.

He’s pretty sure that Triple H made a call on the fly to get some of the talents from Barclay’s Center to jump in a car and make their way to Manhattan Center, because he felt like those fans needed to get more for their money. By the end of the night, Lawler thinks the fans there were pleased and satisfied with the show.

Lawler thinks the crowd would have been happier if they weren’t even shown what was happening at Barclay’s Center. He thinks the crowd there would have been happier with constant action, and the 205 Live matches certainly didn’t give the crowd what they wanted. After RAW went off the air, Seth Rollins, The Miz and Ric Flair all showed up at The Manhattan Center, and the fans got to see those stars up close and in person.

Garcia welcomes Becky Lynch to the show.

Lynch informs that she predicted there’d be a Women’s Royal Rumble match within the next two years several months ago. She feels that a Women’s Rumble is a natural progression for the women who’ve already made history in several different ways over the last year. For this reason, the announcement wasn’t a big surprise to her.

She informs that she’s kept a journal her entire life, and after hearing that there was going to be a Women’s Rumble match she immediately wrote in her journal that winning the Rumble was her main goal for 2018.  She informs that another goal of her’s is to main event WrestleMania someday, and whether she does or not, she thinks it’s only a matter of time before women main event ‘Mania.

Garcia informs that she recalls a time backstage when everyone would get up to get a drink or use the washroom when the women’s match came on. She remembers seeing the frustration on the face of the women at that time because they didn’t know what they had to do in order to change things. She’s very happy that the women on the roster today don’t have to deal with those frustrations.

Austin welcomes Sasha Banks and Bayley to the show.

Bayley mentions that her and Banks have been working a lot of live events as a tag team recently, but they haven’t really been told that they’re going to be a team moving forward. Banks thinks they work well together but they haven’t really implemented any ‘team’ moves yet so she thinks they can do more of that in the future. They both enjoy working with each other as a team, but they also miss working solo matches from time to time.

Austin mentions that when you break into the wrestling business at first you travel with multiple people from town to town. As you begin to make more money you start to travel alone or you find one other person to travel with. Banks and Bayley inform that they’ve paired up and they travel everywhere together. Their routine includes arriving in the town for that night’s show, eating breakfast, finding a coffee shop and then hitting the gym.

Banks informs that they’re not particular when it comes to finding hotels, and as long as the room is reasonable they’d prefer to save their money and rent cheaper rooms. She does admit that they had a terrible experience sharing a room together in a 2-star hotel one time, where they shared a twin bed with only one thin blanket. They slept with all their clothes on because they were concerned with the cleanliness of the bed.
