All it took for the WWE fans to explode into an inexplicable bout of frenzy was a week and an emphatic return of the head of the table, Roman Reigns.
After duking out a brutal slugfest with Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel, he was taken off for a week before he finally made his return to Smackdown and got into the business straight away.
A brief glimpse at the Roman Reigns showdown after his return
Reigns and his entourage comprising Paul Heyman and the USOS brothers made way to the ring to open the blockbuster night.
Roman admitted that he was not on Smackdown for a week, and it was not because of any injury, but to savour vacation and his exultant triumph over the Beast Incarnate.
From demeaning the WWE universe to begging Heyman to narrate the incidents that unspooled last week, he brought out the incident of USOS’ loss to the New Day.
After knowing that it was Jimmy Uso who was pinned for the fall last week, Reigns asked him to make amends and the former acknowledged by seeking a match against the Xavier Woods.
The battle that ensued between Woods and Jimmy witnessed King Woods emerging as the victor. Trying to ask Reigns to bow in front of him after the USOS’ drubbing, he summoned his own doom as the Bloodline laid waste to the duo of Woods and Kingston, thanks to an emphatic charge from Reigns.
Twitter couldn’t contain their excitement as the head of the table was back to business, and this time for the better.
