Last night's episode of SmackDown kicked off with WWE CCO Triple H making his way to the ring to clear the air after Thursday's memorable WrestleMania Kickoff event. 

After taking some shots at Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (noting that certain people don't know their role and saying he doesn't care where someone sits), The Game made one thing clear: WrestleMania will be headlined by Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. 

Triple H said it's his decision, but there were definitely some hints here that we could be looking at some sort of power struggle as WWE plays into the fact Johnson now has a seat on the TKO Holdings board. 

We then learned what the plan is for World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins at the Show of Shows. Randy Orton, Bronson Reed, Kevin Owens, Logan Paul, AJ Styles, The Miz, Bobby Lashley, Ivar, Drew McIntyre, Sami Zayn, Dominik Mysterio, and LA Knight will all square off in qualifier matches, with the six winners stepping into the Elimination Chamber to decide The Visionary's WrestleMania challenger. 

There are lots of exciting possibilities there, but McIntyre is the only one Rollins currently has any sort of issue with. Original plans called for him to face CM Punk.

Later in the night, both he and Orton secured their respective spots in Perth and we'll find out who joins them next week. Elsewhere in the show, Bianca Belair managed to qualify for the women's Chamber match, joining Becky Lynch. 

Oh, and during next week's SmackDown, we'll see the return of both The Rock and Reigns; something tells us they're going to have a lot to say!
