SmackDown

This week’s show opens with a look back at last week’s main event where Xavier Woods battled Roman Reigns and almost had him beat but The Uso’s interfered and Reigns took his crown.

We go live to the arnea in Hartford, Connecticut, and out come Jimmy and Jey Uso. There’s a crown, sceptre, and throne in the ring and they say they have a surprise for Roman. They say tonight we’re going to see who runs WWE and then introduce the WWE Champion, who comes out alongside Paul Heyman.

Heyman says there is nobody in the history of WWE that deserves to be crowned King more than the Tribal Chief. And he knows in his heart that everyone in the arena agrees the distinction of King doesn’t belong to Xavier Woods. And it sure as Hell will never belong to Brock Lesnar or Big E. Reigns takes the microphone from Heyman and asks whose idea this was.

Heyman and The Uso’s point at each other and Roman says this is a joke. He says he doesn’t give a damn about the crown and he doesn’t need it to be acknowledged. He tells the fans to acknowledge him for his hard work. Roman says the only reason he took the crown last week is because he can. Just then, Roman is interrupted by Xavier Woods.

Woods says Roman has his property in the ring but those things don’t make a King. What makes a King is knowing you’re doing good for the WWE Universe. And if Roman was a King he’d have come out and looked him in the eyes this week, but that’s not Roman’s M.O. He challenges Reigns to come out without The Uso’s and go one-on-one.

Reigns laughs and asks if this stuff doesn’t really mean anything to Woods, then stands on the cape, then Jey snaps the sceptre. Roman asks if he’s still sure and Woods says that stuff doesn’t make the man, so Jimmy and Jey break the throne. Roman says Woods looks hot to him but Woods shakes his head. Roman takes the crown and aims to stomp it but Woods rushes to the ring and The Uso’s attack him. Reigns tells Woods he’s the only King and he doesn’t need props, then stomps the crown.

*Commercial Break*

King Woods is hobbling abckstage when he’s stopped for an interview. Woods says he wanted to challenge Roman to a match tonight, not get beat up. Regardless, everyone knows the Roman Empire wasn’t built in a day… but it will fall tonight.

Fatal 4-Way

The match gets underway and all four men begin brawling. Ricochet gets the better of Sheamus but Mahal clocks him with a kick.

We see a replay of Shotzi’s heel turn against Sasha Banks. Sasha meets Shotzi backstage and Sonya Deville comes between them.

*Commercial Break*

We see a vignette for Xia Li in the form of a comic book. She narrates over it, saying her father was the family protector but he died, then the evil landlord tried to kick them out and it was up to her to wield her father’s protective shield. She hates vultures and she is her father’s daughter. She is the protector.

Kayla Braxton interviews Toni Storm backstage and congratulates her on being announced for Team SmackDown. Toni says she’s very excited about representing team blue. Storm is asked about confronting Charlotte Flair last week and she says Charlotte is obsessed with Becky, so she’s vulnerable. A lot of people are afraid of Charlotte but she’s not. Flair will lose on Sunday and she’ll take it out on her.

Charlotte Flair appears and says, after she beats the crap out of Becky, Toni is next on the list. She doesn’t deserve a title shot, but she will give her a match. And she will beat the crap out of her, just the way she will to Banks on Sunday. Flair flicks her hair and walks off and Toni says she knew Charlotte would say that.

*Commercial Break*

Xavier Woods comes to the ring and he gets on the microphone. He says he’s here in the ring to find out if Roman is a man. Last week they had a match and Woods hit the Limit Break elbow and The Uso’s interfered. Which means the WWE Universal Champion can’t beat the King one-on-one. And if that makes him feel any sort of way, he shold come out and do something.

Reigns comes out, not wearing his ring gear. They stop on the ramp and Heyman calls for the Uso’s, but both Jimmy and Jey come flying out on their asses. A few seconds later, the WWE Champion, Big E, emerges! Big E and Roman run to meet each other on the ramp and Big E sends him into the steel steps. Big E then tosses Roman into the barricade and into the ring.

Woods and Big E fist-bump, then both put the boots to Roman in the ring while Heyman screams for help. Jimmy and Jey rush down but one gets caught with a superkick, and the other a Big Ending. Big E then hits the other with a Big Ending, then Woods dives over the ropes onto both of them but Reigns returns with a Superman punch to Big E. Roman wants a spear but Big E picks him up, only for Roman to slide off and roll from the ring. Reigns and Heyman retreat while Big E poses in the ring with the title.

That’s it for this week’s SmackDown, let us know what you thought of the show and we’ll see you back here on Sunday night for Survivor Series 2021. Until then, stay safe.
