WrestleRant Radio - December 22, 2022: Defending Bronson Reed’s WWE Return, Swerve’s New Group Falls Flat, & More!

It's the WrestleRant Radio holiday show! Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau break down a surprisingly strong episode of Raw from Monday night including Rhea Ripley battling Akira Tozawa in intergender action, all of the focus on The Bloodline and if they're headed for a feud with The O.C., the excellent exchange between Bianca Belair and Alexa Bliss, Bronson Reed returning to WWE and why it didn't deserve the backlash it got, Bayley vs. Becky Lynch, and Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins reuniting against The Usos.

Then, in their complete review of the Holiday Bash edition of AEW Dynamite, the duo discuss Ricky Starks starting a program with Chris Jericho, Match #5 in the Best-of-7 Series between The Elite and Death Triangle, Ethan Page interrupting Bryan Danielson, The Gunns beating FTR, how the debut of Swerve Strickland's new faction fell flat, and Jamie Hayter defending her AEW Women's World Championship against Hikaru Shida in a banger of a main event.
