WWE SmackDown Salt Lake City, Utah
The commentators are Michael Cole and Corey Graves.
– Tonight is WWE SmackDown, the blue show starts with the commentators who welcome us then the music of Roman Reigns sounds. The champion enters with the Bloodline. Once in the ring, Roman Reigns asks Salt Lake City to recognize him. Paul Heyman takes the microphone, he introduces himself and then talks to us regarding Roman Reigns who is still champion.
People say it was Drew McIntyre’s moment… no. Cardiff, Wales or Scotland are not Drew McIntyre’s territory. The whole planet belongs to the Tribal Chief and it’s Roman Reigns. But since Drew McIntyre now has to deal with Karrion Kross, then he’s going to talk regarding Solo Sikoa. He was sent by the elders of the Samoan Dynasty and he will be there to ensure that Roman Reigns stays on the throne. This will allow Usos to focus on their quest.
Roman Reigns takes the microphone and tells Solo Sikoa to recognize him and the wrestler complies. The Bloodline was regarding to leave but Sami Zayn takes the mic and says cut the music. He knows he’s not technically family, but he wants to acknowledge Roman Reigns publicly.
Roman Reigns says he likes him but he wants to know why Sami Zayn is talking. He wonders why Sami Zayn is wearing their t-shirt. Reigns wants Zayn to take off his t-shirt. Jey Uso rips off Sami Zayn’s t-shirt.
Roman Reigns gives Sami Zayn a new t-shirt with “SZ Honorary Uce” on it. Sami Zayn is very happy and recognizes Roman Reigns, before giving him a hug. Jey Uso is the only one not happy.
