SmackDown saw both its top championship changing hands, as Kofi Kingston became the WWE Champion by defeating the New Daniel Bryan. Becky Lynch, on the other hand, became both RAW and SmackDown women's champ by winning the main event.

The shows after WrestleMania are known to have some amazing debuts, returns, and interesting segments to keep the fans engaged and give the direction to what's coming next for WWE and its superstars.

#5 Charlotte demands a rematch for her title

WrestleMania 35 witnessed a historic main event as it was the first time women headlined the grandest stage of them all. The trio of Becky, Charlotte, and Ronda Rousey fought in a "Winner Takes All" triple threat, with Becky Lynch coming out on top and becoming the double champion.

The match ended with Becky rolling up Ronda to pick up a win, while Charlotte was not in the ring. It would be interesting to see how does the Queen react to her loss at SmackDown this week. What if she demands a rematch for her SmackDown Women's Title?

With Becky being a double champion right now, she might be feuding with multiple superstars on both RAW and SmackDown. We already saw her getting into a brawl with Lacey Evans last night on RAW, and she certainly might go against some other superstar on SmackDown tonight.

Another interesting option would be to have Becky hold an open challenge which could be answered by The Queen or maybe some NXT debutant. Though I highly doubt Becky would lose any of her titles so soon.

#4 Kevin Owens interrupts Samoa Joe

At WrestleMania 35, Samoa Joe squashed Rey Mysterio to successfully defend his United States Championship. With a loss like that, Mysterio is surely out of the title picture now. So who would be the next challenger for Joe's US Title?

What if it was Kevin Owens? If you haven't watched it yet, Joe and Owens had a great rivalry for the NXT championship back when both were in the yellow brand. I personally think both of them have a very common fighting style, which makes their matches very engaging.

Owens himself had no match at 'Mania and currently is without an opponent to feud with. What if he shows up and confronts Samoa Joe on SmackDown letting him know that he has his eyes set on Joe's US Title. These two can have an amazing feud both in the ring, as well as in promos. I'm looking forward to it.

#3 Kairi Sane and Io Shirai face The IIconics

WrestleMania 35 saw an unexpected title change in the Women's Tag Team Title match, as the IIconics won their first Women's Tag Team Championship. With Billie Kay and Peyton Royce not showing up at RAW last night, expect them to have a mini celebration at SmackDown tonight.

Now the question is, who's next? None of the team from the fatal-four way at 'Mania should be at SmackDown as they were all from RAW. But what if the IIconics come face to face with a debutant team from NXT?

I'm talking about the charming yet dangerous team of Kairi Sane and Io Shirai. These two amazing wrestlers were involved in the NXT Women's Championship match at NXT TakeOver NewYork but failed to capture the championship. Them interrupting the women's tag champs would be an amazing way to debut them on the main roster.

#2 Shane McMahon answers Kofi's Open Challenge

WrestleMania 35 saw one of the greatest moments in the history of the event when Kofi Kingston won his first WWE Championship after nearly 11 years in the company. With this win, he became the first proper African Black WWE Champion and Grand Slam Champion.

WWE has advertised a championship celebration with Kofi and New Day on SmackDown tonight. Looking at his fighting spirit on RAW, I'm wondering how would he celebrate on SmackDown?

If you ask me, that could be through an open challenge for the WWE Title. Kofi has gone through a lot to finally be at the top, and he'll surely want to be a fighting champion by defending his title in an open challenge.

While fans would be expecting Daniel Bryan to answer the challenge and get his rematch, WWE could throw us a surprise and let Shane McMahon come out and face Kofi. The self-proclaimed Best in the World had an all-out war against The Miz at 'Mania which he somehow managed to win.

With that, Shane would be high on success and could go to the limits by challenging Kofi for the title.

#1 The Undisputed Era make their debut

The Undisputed Era is one of the best factions in WWE today. Led by Adam Cole (BayBay), the faction is one of the most interesting parts of NXT right now.

With Adam Cole losing to Johnny Gargano at NXT TakeOver NewYork for the NXT Championship, there is a possibility of him and the rest of the Undisputed Era to make their debuts on SmackDown.

With SmackDown having some amazing factions, they have a lot to do on the brand. One of the first thing that comes to mind is them interrupting Kofi's celebration and beating down the whole New Day. But that would mean Adam Cole facing Kofi for the WWE Title, which I'm not sure he's ready yet or not.

Another interesting storyline could be them teasing Karl Anderson and Gallows by calling themselves the "best faction in history". This could lead to a reunion of The (Bullet?) Club.

Possibilities are endless!
