It's only been a few days since Cody Rhodes did the impossible and dethroned Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. After going through one hell of a battle at WrestleMania 40, it doesn't look like the American Nightmare is ready to slow down. He is already looking ahead to the future. With WWE Backlash set to take place in France next month, Cody is looking for his next challenger.
Two Triple-Threat matches were announced tonight on SmackDown to determine his next challenger. One of those matches featured LA Knight, Bobby Lashley, and Santos Escobar. The match was evenly paced until Angel and Berto decided to interfere and attack Knight. They helped Santos hit the triple powerbomb. They then turned their attention to Lashley, which caused Street Profits to get involved, and a brawl broke out between both teams.

Knight moves one step closer to challenging Cody Rhodes at WWE Backlash with this win.

Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
