The Road to WrestleMania 39 will continue tonight as WWE SmackDown on FOX airs live from the Capital One Arena in Washington, DC.
Tonight’s SmackDown will be headlined by appearances from Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes, their first show together to build to the WrestleMania 39 main event. Reigns is also making his first appearance since Elimination Chamber to try and clean up some of the recent issues with The Bloodline.
