#4. Cody Rhodes dethrones Drew McIntyre to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion

One of the potential SmackDown endings could witness a new Undisputed WWE Champion getting crowned when Cody Rhodes dethrones Drew McIntyre. The American Nightmare suffered a loss at Elimination Chamber, thanks to an attack from The Scottish Psychopath.

Already, there are rumors about Rhodes potentially locking horns with Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42. If the rumors are true, this could be done only when Cody defeats Drew and becomes the new champion.

So, one of the probable ways SmackDown could conclude is a title switch.

#3. Drew McIntyre defeats Cody Rhodes with help from Jacob Fatu

Jacob Fatu is still engaged in a storyline with Drew McIntyre on the blue brand. Nick Aldis promised the Samoan Werewolf an opportunity against the Undisputed WWE Champion.

So, on the upcoming episode of SmackDown, Jacob might interfere in the title match and unintentionally cost Rhodes. This distraction would allow The Scottish Warrior to score the victory and retain the championship against The Prodigal Son.

#2. Randy Orton attacks Cody Rhodes to end WWE SmackDown

Randy Orton is the number one contender for the Undisputed WWE Championship. The Viper is set to get a world title shot at WrestleMania 42, irrespective of who the title holder is. The Apex Predator already pinned Cody at Elimination Chamber to emerge at the top.

So, in case Rhodes dethrones McIntyre and claims the championship, the Legend Killer might not hesitate to leave a message for his real-life friend. Orton could strike Cody with an RKO to end the show and to solidify the message that he would not spare the American Nightmare despite their friendship.

This angle could be a great way to ignite heat between Rhodes and Orton ahead of WrestleMania.

#1. The show ends up in a chaotic brawl

The road to WrestleMania promises multiple surprises and unexpected storylines. Considering the current landscape of the blue brand, there is a chance that WWE might go ahead with a Fatal Four-Way match for the Undisputed WWE Title at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Jacob Fatu, Randy Orton, Drew McIntyre, and Cody Rhodes seem to be the viable contenders in an Undisputed WWE Title bout. With this, it’s likely that tonight, SmackDown might conclude with a chaotic brawl between these four stars.

This could happen following the Rhodes vs. McIntyre title match.
