Main Event Reax - 1/21/18, next Ride Along set, WWE Network's next Flashback Friday, Raw 25 hype and merchandise, WWE's CFO puts company over, Xavier going over 9,000, Impact seeks feedback, JR updates, 205 Live live event note, and Questions on future 205 Live shows, which Dudleys go into the WWE HoF, Big Cass' future, and Swann's status

-- Main Event:
- Rhyno vs. Hawkins:
I think the goal is for Hawkins to go 0-173 as a mirror for Goldberg's famous streak. That could set up a Mania moment for Goldberg to give him 174 straight losses. 

Hahahaha Curt recognizing the futility of it all.

Ha. Clever pin attempt by Hawkins.

I like the story here so far.

Good ending!

- TJP vs. Mustafa:
Nice technique to start.

Nice tornado DDT spot.

I like Perkins' mean streak.

TJP is just unbelievably smooth.

Standing on someone's hand is just straight-up mean.

Really nice X Factor. 

This is going pretty well.

I like the kneebar returning.

Good ending! 

After Monday's Raw, WWE Ride Along will feature Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn in addition to the Usos and Naomi.

WWE Network's Flashback Friday this week will focus on the United States Championship across various promotions.

Stone Cold and DX are getting special shirts for Raw 25. WWE should get everything they can out of that concept. Get Taker and some of the other legends some shirts, too.

- WWE also has limited edition artwork available to celebrate the show.

Triple H discussed the preparation involved for Raw 25. Sonya Deville wasn't even alive when Raw first came on the air.

WWE Chief Financial Office George Barrios discussed the company's potential for growth with CNBC.

Sasha Banks discussed wanting WWE to have women's tag team championships. I think that might be overkill.

Xavier Woods will be part of a live launch stream on Thursday.

The Osbournes and Michael Strahan gave WWE shout-outs for Raw hitting 25 years.

Impact Wrestling asked Twitter users for feedback on Thursday's episode. I'm sure they got some pretty colorful suggestions.

Jim Ross' podcasts have left Podcastone after the deal between the two sides expired and they were unable to reach a new one. JR has ownership of all the podcasts recorded for that platform, and is seeking a new home for the podcast.

- Ross will have a Q&A session before Royal Rumble as part of a tour promoting his book.

Nia Jax assisted Enzo Amore to retain the Cruiserweight Championship over Cedric Alexander in the main event of 205 Live's first live event. Nia was the special referee for the bout. Talk about stacking the odds against Cedric!

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. That will partially depend on how ticket sales are for this weekend's events.

2. It will almost certainly be just Bubba Ray and D-Von, although you can definitely argue Spike is deserving of the honor, too.

3. Winning the Andre battle royal is one direction. He can still be a big bully while The Zo Train stay on 205 Live; their paths don't necessarily have to cross.

4. The case is still waiting on whether local authorities will press charges.

Nothing to add to 5.

More wrestling tomorrow.
