Summary

WWE put all its eggs in Roman Reigns' basket by making him the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion ... and then wasted the momentum from the Biggest WrestleMania Match Ever without a strong enough follow up. Host Adam Silverstein and co-host Chris Vannini discuss the lack of a concrete Reigns storyline coupled with his two-week absence leaving a huge void across SmackDown and Raw. The guys also break down Cody Rhodes vs. Seth Rollins, RK-Bro vs. The Usos tag team title unification plans, Drew Gulak getting Charlotte Flair over, Rhea Ripley's expected heel turn and much more.
