WWE SmackDown finally revealed the mystery behind Randy Orton’s phone calls, with Pat McAfee returning as his ally but the payoff fell completely flat.

After weeks of buildup and speculation around names like The Rock, Kevin Owens, and Triple H, WWE went in a very different direction, leaving the Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton WrestleMania 42 storyline feeling underwhelming at a critical point in the build.

While there’s always a chance this leads to something bigger, the initial reveal felt like a major miss and raises questions about WWE relying on celebrity involvement instead of delivering a stronger story payoff.

WrestleMania 42 is just weeks away, and the final pieces of the card are falling into place. Coming out of WWE Raw at Madison Square Garden, new questions are being raised about Cody Rhodes and the direction of the WWE Championship match with Randy Orton.

Cody’s interaction with Stephanie McMahon has sparked speculation about the mystery surrounding Orton’s recent behavior and the ongoing phone calls he's been receiving. Is WWE planting the seeds for a major reveal heading into WrestleMania?

Elsewhere, Gunther made his return to WWE television by attacking Seth Rollins with no build, no explanation, and no prior story between the two, leading to major backlash from fans over WWE fast tracking a WrestleMania match without proper development. What happened to the rumor of Bron Breakker? Was this the right call, or could WWE have done a better job if this was ultimately the direction?

CM Punk and Roman Reigns also escalated their feud coming out of Raw, finally adding physicality to one of the most anticipated matches on the WrestleMania 42 card.

Beyond Raw, major news continues to shape WrestleMania weekend, including John Cena officially hosting WrestleMania 42, the announced "Unsanctioned Match" between Drew McIntyre and Jacob Fatu that was supposed to be a Hell In A Cell Match, and ongoing updates surrounding injuries, returns, and backstage developments across WWE and AEW.
