A show-long storyline on last night’s SmackDown ended with a change to WrestleMania 37’s Universal Championship match being confirmed.
After making Roman Reigns visually tap out at Fastlane but being cost the match by Edge, Daniel Bryan appeared on last night’s SmackDown and demanded another shot at Reigns’ Universal Championship. Edge said Bryan didn’t deserve a title shot and wanted it to be kept one-on-one. Reigns told Adam Pearce that he was only going to wrestle on one night of WrestleMania and was only going to have one title defense. Pearce said he would make a decision by the end of the show.
Pearce announced that Reigns will defend his Universal Championship against Edge and Bryan in a triple threat match in the main event of WrestleMania 37 night two. Bryan was happy with the decision, but Reigns and Edge were both furious. A three-way brawl then broke out. It featured Edge snapping and giving Bryan, Reigns, and Jey Uso steel chair shots. Edge went to give Bryan a con-chair-to, but Bryan was able to get away while officials attempted to get Edge to stop. Edge hit steel chair shots on WWE officials Pat Buck and Jamie Noble.
The build to Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair’s SmackDown Women’s Championship match at WrestleMania 37 night one also continued. Despite Banks distracting her, Belair defeated Natalya on last night’s show. After Banks had slapped her at Fastlane, Belair got payback on Banks by hitting a slap of her own when Banks tried to get involved in her match aganst Natalya. But Banks then laid out Belair with a backstabber after the match was over.
Three new matches were confirmed for WrestleMania 37. Seth Rollins vs. Cesaro will take place on night one, while Big E vs. Apollo Crews for the Intercontinental title and Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn will be part of the card for night two.
