We're back for another look at some of the biggest conversations around professional wrestling, a week after WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. The big question following the last week - was John Cena v. Cody Rhodes "one of the WORST WrestleMania main events of all time"? According to our regular contributor, the Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer? Yes.
Mike McGuire walks you through the news, but we look to dive into this dubious distinction for a match, including Dave's own response to the statement.
Plus, from the Legends and Champions podcast, Stefan Bennett and Mike compare EVERY WrestleMania main event match to show that maybe Cena/Rhodes wasn't the WORST.
