Wrestling World is Changing: From CM Punk To Vince McMahon to LA Knight
by Full Press Coverage on September 14, 2023 at 1:00 pm
Smackdown was built around the Royal Rumble battle between Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship. It was a great war of words between these two competitors. With Lesnar being the WWE Champion, they needed a worthy challenger for Reign’s Universal Title. It was a great main event segment as Rollins pointed out Reigns has needed help to keep that title from the Bloodline.
In addition, we saw Charlotte interrupt the returning Lita to Smackdown. Lita is looking for another run in WWE especially now that the women have the Royal Rumble match. It will be interesting to see where this goes between these two. The rest of the show was normal with the Viking Raiders winning a fatal four-way contest to take on the Usos for the Smackdown Tag Team Titles.
