On the latest episode of SmackDown, Triple H addressed the heated moments of the WrestleMania 40 Kickoff show. Triple H teased that Roman Reigns vs Cody Rhodes will main event this year’s WrestleMania and there is no one to take authority of the company. He teased a feud with Rock and said that if Cody vs Roman disappoints him, it doesn’t matter to him.
Later the same night Roman Reigns’ Wiseman, Paul Heyman came to see Triple H and said that he will be coming back next week to SmackDown with his Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns and Rock. Both the Tribal Chief & The High Chief will be live next week on SmackDown in Salt Lake City, Utah. So what will Roman & Rock be cooking next week on SmackDown, here we speculate some of the possibilities of what could happen next week.
What could Roman Reigns & The Rock could do next week
The Bloodline will force Triple H to change WrestleMania XL decisions
Rock and Roman Reigns could call out Triple H and force them to change the WrestleMania XL decision. They might ask Triple H to make The Rock replace Cody Rhodes in the WrestleMania main event and attack him. Or he could use his Board of Directors power to fire Triple H from his position.
Cody Rhodes vs The Rock for the WrestleMania spot at Elimination Chamber
The Rock could challenge Cody Rhodes to defend his guaranteed WrestleMania spot on the line against him in a match at Elimination Chamber. As both Cody & Rock are teased to be available for Elimination Chamber. WWE has previously done something similar in which Shawn Michaels defended his WrestleMania title shot in 1996 against Owen Hart, Triple H lost his spot to Kurt Angle in 2002 and Roman defended his spot in 2015 against Daniel Bryan.
The Bloodline will takeover SmackDown
The Bloodline could take over SmackDown next week, by taking down all the stars to spoil the actual plans to gain attention from Triple H. They could then ask him to remove Cody Rhodes from the spot and make it Rock vs Roman or Rock & Roman vs Cody Rhodes in a handicap match.
