WWE SmackDown kicks off with clips of last Sunday’s Universal Championship match from Payback with Roman Reigns as the new Champion.

Live in the ThunderDome, it’s the new WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns along with Paul Heyman. They take their time to get to the ring as Heyman says:

“Just when you thought I was out, he pulled me back in.” Heyman says not to make fools of themselves as it is Roman corrupting him and not the other way around. And this happened because he was gone, tossed aside, thrown into the shark infested ocean of obscurity. He says Reigns rescued him and pulled him back into the island of relevancy. He says they did the same thing to Roman as they did to him.

Heyman says The Fiend does Fiendish things. A Monster does Monster things. Imagine turning on Fox and you see Strowman. He says Roman as Champion has always been defined on what WWE was built on. Family, legacy, the accountability of owning one’s champions as the champion. And on Raw, they have a challenge to see who will challenge for Clash at Champions. Raw did a triple threat but SmackDown will do a fatal four way tonight.

Paul says he will let the names of the four gentlemen be hyped by Anderson Cooper and Carmella’s boyfriend as they don’t deserve to say their names. Heyman says his name is Paul Heyman and he serves as special council to the tribal chief, your Reigning, defending undisputed, Heavyweight Champion, Roman Reign.

Roman says he is a man of his word. He did what he said he would do. He wrecked the Fiend, The Monster and left as the Universal Heavyweight Champion. He says this is his island and he doesn’t care who he faces at Clash of Champions. He says when you have his power, all you have to do is show up and win. Believe that. He drops the mic and they leave.
