Following the conclusion of Friday night’s SmackDown broadcast, we are still left with more questions than answers as to who Bianca Belair and Edge will face at WrestleMania 37.
Bianca Belair came down to ringside to celebrate her 2021 Women’s Royal Rumble victory with the WWE Universe when she was interrupted by Carmella and Reginald. Despite Belair praising both SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks and RAW Women’s Champion Asuka, she has yet to make an announcement or decision heading into WrestleMania. Carmella, Banks and Belair all exchanged words, ending with Belair whipping Reginald around the ring with her hair.
SmackDown had opened up with Roman Reigns coming down to verbally trash talk Edge, saying that he disrespected him by going on RAW and NXT first before addressing Reigns. “The Tribal Chief” would go on to tell Edge that he “demanded” an answer from him by the end of the show.
Both Edge and Reigns would later face off in the ring. Edge accused Reigns of being scared, as Reigns said that he allowed Edge to live “rent free” in his head. Reigns then ordered Edge to challenge him at WrestleMania and to allow Edge to live on his “island of relevancy”. Then, Kevin Owens would hit the ring and drop Reigns with a Stunner, interrupting the segment.
Afterwards, Edge placed the microphone on the mat and left Reigns laying as SmackDown went off the air.
