WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair defeated Ronda Rousey
Steve Austin defeated Kevin Owens in a, “No Holds Barred” match
With Cody Rhodes back in WWE, there are many new possibilities for him. I think a lot more could be done with Rhodes and Seth Rollins, but if WWE wants to move Rhodes on to someone else, Kevin Owens would be a good option for him. They had a dark match with each other this week after, “WWE RAW” (which Rhodes was the winner of-, perhaps this was a way of seeing how well they work together before possibly putting them in a match together on TV.
If WWE indeed is done with Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins wrestling each other for now, then Rollins should challenge Roman Reigns for Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, since he defeated Reigns via disqualification in their Royal Rumble match.

Also on this episode, MVP attacked Bobby Lashley, revealing his new alliance with Omos. This will benefit Omos in terms of promo segments and will add to his character. However, it should have been made more clear as to why this has happened. While MVP was attacking Lashley, he was saying, “You don’t need me?!” This was the first indication that Lashley felt he didn’t need MVP, so MVP leaving Lashley and aligning himself with Omos may have been confusing to many fans, considering the fact that Lashley defeated Omos the night before at WrestleMania. Perhaps before their match, MVP and Lashley could have been shown backstage, with MVP insisting that he come to the ring with Lashley to aid him against the colossal Omos, and Lashley responding, “You saw what I did to Omos last week– I got this. I don’t need you.” before walking away. Which could have been used as an explanation for MVP’s actions this week- taking Lashley’s comment personally, MVP decided to offer Omos help against Lashley after he defeated Omos. And knowing that MVP guided Lashley to the WWE Championship, Omos was more than willing to accept the manager’s aid.

MORE WWE
According to reports, Lacey Evans will be returning to the ring soon. If that is true, it would be best if it is as a part of the RAW brand. There are still many more wrestlers for her to work with on that brand, such Queen Zelina and Doudrop.
