The spotlight shines on the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, as RAW takes center stage for another electrifying week. With WrestleMania 40 looming ever closer, the stakes have never been higher.
In a thrilling showdown, the Intercontinental Championship scene sets the stage for Gunther’s WrestleMania challenger to emerge in a gauntlet match. Ricochet, Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn, JD McDonagh, Chad Gable, and Bronson Reed will vie for the opportunity to challenge Gunther at WrestleMania 40.

Moreover, in recent weeks, the WWE universe has witnessed a tense rivalry brewing between two formidable competitors: Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins. McIntyre, the challenger, has repeatedly cautioned Rollins, the reigning world heavyweight champion, to refrain from entangling himself in the affairs of the Bloodline.
On SmackDown, Seth Rollins has accepted the Bloodline’s challenge for WrestleMania 40 despite Drew McIntyre’s warnings. Rollins and Cody Rhodes will face off against The Rock and Roman Reigns on night one, while Rollins defends his title against McIntyre on night two.

The upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown promises to be a thrilling spectacle. With several exciting developments on the horizon. WWE has officially announced a highly anticipated grudge match between Bayley and Dakota Kai.
Furthermore, the tension between Bayley and Kai reached its boiling point during a recent tag team match. Kai shockingly betrayed Bayley to rejoin Damage CTRL a few weeks ago. Feeling betrayed and seeking redemption, Bayley wasted no time challenging Kai to a singles match.
Adding to the excitement, fans can expect the return of the legendary Rey Mysterio to SmackDown. Mysterio, who made a triumphant return from injury earlier this month, will undoubtedly seek to settle scores with Santos Escobar and make his mark as WrestleMania 40 approaches.

Moreover, the ongoing saga between Seth Rollins and the Bloodline heats up as The Rock takes aim at Rollins’ WrestleMania tag team partner, Cody Rhodes. The Rock’s taunts and provocations have ignited a fiery response from Rhodes.
The Rock didn’t hold back, taking verbal shots at Cody Rhodes, suggesting he was a mistake due to being 20 years younger than his siblings. In retaliation, Rhodes slapped The Rock, mirroring a past incident. As anticipation mounts, all eyes are on The Rock’s response in the upcoming episode.
As anticipation mounts and intensifies, WWE SmackDown promises to deliver an unforgettable action-packed entertainment for fans.
