WWE SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis announces two Triple Threat matches to determine the number-one contender for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, with big appearances from Cody Rhodes and Bayley.
Another WrestleMania is in the books, and after a well-received episode of Monday Night Raw, SmackDown is now up to bat. WWE will have big appearances from two of its new Champions in Cody Rhodes and Bayley , but it will also start the process of lining up a number-one contender through two Triple Threat matches.
You could see this going a number of ways, as there are two ongoing rivalries baked into these two Triple Threats. Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar have been at odds since Santos turned on Mysterio and The LWO, and they fought at WrestleMania 40 as well in a Tag Team match. The other rivalry also took place at WrestleMania, that being AJ Styles vs LA Knight, and this could be a way to tee up a rematch between the two.
Speaking of Rhodes, he had a monumental moment at WrestleMania 40, finishing the story and defeating Roman Reigns. In an interview with TODAY, Rhodes was asked now that the final chapter has been written in that story, what's next?"I had said on"SmackDown," I said when one good story ends, an even better one begins. And I think that's where I'm at with it, is we did finish the story.
