Special Relativity resulted in the famous $E = mc^2$ formula that equated mass and energy, as set down the means by which a massive burst of energy could eventually have condensed into all the matter in the universe today. It makes possible the fact that all fundamental particles sort of "congealed" out of that unimaginably large burst of energy that was the start of everything.

(Here, I am assuming you have a good grasp of and how the universe came to be; I will not detail that lengthy story!)

The part that General Relativity has played is essentially to produce the equations that would be solved to create possible scenarios for how the took place. Essentially, the equations of General Relativity allow for certain mechanisms to occur when we try to grasp the many events that had to have occurred at various stages in the history of the universe - for instance, the creation of light, the appearance of the first quarks, the first atoms, and so on.

All in all, it is a fascinating topic to dive into! But also much to involved to do more than what I have outlined here. I hope that is what you were looking for!
