WWE SmackDown Results 3/28 - Punk, Reigns & Rollins Sign Contract For WrestleMania Match, Two Titles On The Line

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "WWE SmackDown" on March 28, 2025, coming to you from the O2 Arena in London, England!

CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins will be making their WWE WrestleMania 41 Triple Threat Match against one another official tonight as they put pen-to-paper for the contract. The three men came face-to-face with one another in the closing moments of last week's edition of "SmackDown" when they exchanged verbal jabs at one another until things escalated into a physical brawl. In the midst of the brawl, each man pointed at the WrestleMania 41 sign making their intentions of the time and place they wanted to square off in the ring known with the match subsequently being made official.

LA Knight will be defending the United States Championship for the first time on television since dethroning Shinsuke Nakamura on the March 7 episode of "SmackDown" as he puts it on the line against Braun Strowman. Strowman defeated Jacob Fatu via disqualification last week after Tama Tonga and Solo Sikoa blindsided Strowman with an attack to cost Fatu the match much to his frustration.

Another title will be on the line, as Elton Prince and Kit Wilson of Pretty Deadly challenge The Street Profits' Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins of the WWE Tag Team Championship. Prince and Wilson secured their spot in tonight's match after they emerged victorious over Motor City Machine Guns' Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin and Angelo and Berto of Los Garza.

He tells Rhodes that it took a lot for him to leave WWE since there was only so far he could really go the first time around, and he went on to change the professional wrestling business. He says Rhodes came back, and while he didn't know what to expect at first, Rhodes is still the same guy that he was back then. Orton recalls facing Seth Rollins in a Hell In A Cell match with a torn pec and still managed to win, then went on to dethrone Roman Reigns as Undisputed WWE Champion at WrestleMania 40. He says Rhodes is in control of his legacy, then says he respects Rhodes, loves him, and is proud of him. He says it's time for WrestleMania 41, where he will kick Kevin Owens hard in the head with a Punt as Rhodes beats down John Cena up and down the Las Vegas strip. He says when the smoke clears and the dust settles, he wants a shot at Rhodes' Undisputed WWE Championship.

Drew McIntyre's music hits and he makes his way out. He says it's wonderful to see a couple of nepo babies in the ring, then says more people talk about his 5 minute World Heavyweight Championship reign than Orton's entire comeback. McIntyre makes it clear that he also wants a shot at Rhodes' title, then says while Orton looks jacked on the outside, his back is hanging by a thread and he will break it if provoked.

Punk does so, but says that him and Heyman getting that isn't the favor that he's owed. He heads to the back as the show goes off the air.
