Owens yells that no one cares where Foley was or why. This is all about him and Jericho because they are national treasures. Stephanie says Foley and her are usually on the same page, so Foley shouldn’t have a problem with the match she is about to make: Reigns will defend the United States title against Jericho. If Reigns is disqualified or counted out, he will lose the title. Owens says Rollins should be banned from ringside. Foley says Jericho should be banned from ringside… which would be interesting since Jericho is in the match. Stephanie says she is sick of everyone. Smackdown Live beat Raw in the ratings last week. She is tired of everyone saying Smackdown Live is the land of opportunity. Owens will face Rollins tonight and the loser will be banned from ringside.
