Tonight’s episode of SmackDown from FedExForum in Memphis, Tennessee started off with a classic segment from The Rock and ended with a post-show traditional Cody Rhodes has established on his road to WrestleMania.
There were two dark matches that took place after tonight’s show went off air. The first match saw Rhea Ripley successfully defending her Women’s World title in a triple-threat match against Natalya and Shayna Baszler.
The second dark match after SmackDown featured Cody Rhodes taking on Drew McIntyre. After the fight, Cody once again gave away a signed table that was apparently used in his bout with The Scottish Warrior.
