In-Ring Segment: Sonya Deville
Deville announces that WWE will be returning to live events. Deville says she wants to acknowledge SmackDown’s champions in a parade of champions. All of SmackDown’s Champions (except Roman Reigns) are on the stage. When Deville gets to Apollo Crews, he goes into a rant about how he is going to defeat his three challengers tonight. Deville announces Roman Reigns, but he never comes out. Paul Heyman does. Heyman says this isn’t a parade of champions, it’s a parade of titleholders. Reigns is a champion. He’s the champion. Reigns will not be one of many in Deville’s parade of titleholders.
Reigns will have his own parade of champions at his leisure tonight. Heyman walks away. As Deville asks everyone to give the champions a round of applause Bayley hits the ring and complains that everyone should thank her because she made this all possible. Bayley trash talks everyone except Crews and Azeez. Bayley says Bianca Belair cheated and should be stripped of the title. Belair hits the ring and tells Bayley to come take the title. Bayley says it will happen on her time. Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax attack Belair from behind. Natalya and Tamina try to make the save but get laid out as well.
The Head of the Table will join us… at his leisure.#SmackDown @HeymanHustle @WWERomanReigns pic.twitter.com/jdeoU54SpF
