Summary

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for April 22nd. Roman Reigns still has no announced challenger for WrestleMania Backlash in two weeks, but Drew McIntyre looks likely for the spot based on the events of this show. Xia Li also reappeared and seemed to have been turned heel while abandoning her gimmick as "The Protector" of the blue brand. On Rampage, Adam Cole and Tomohiro Ishii gave us a small preview of the "Forbidden Door" PPV, while Jade Cargill defended her TBS title and HOOK actually said a few words.
