In-Ring: Roman Reigns, Drew McIntyre, Jey Uso

WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns makes his way to the ring alongside Paul Heyman. Reigns saunters down to the ring and poses with pyrotechnics going off. Reigns asks Heyman what to call this place. It’s the Island of Relevancy. Heyman says Reigns makes everyone relevant. Reigns says the numbers and analytics don’t lie. You can look at it in the flesh. Just look at Jey Uso. Before he was the twin you didn’t know which was which. Now in the past two weeks he’s emerged. Two weeks ago, he destroyed Daniel Bryan. Last week, he destroyed Kevin Owens. At Survivor Series, Jey will lead Reigns’ team into Survivor Series and win. Reigns says that night he’ll beat the secondary champion Randy Orton. If you think about Orton, and Reigns doesn’t, you can respect the accomplishments without respecting the man himself.

Drew McIntyre’s music hits, and the former WWE Champion (and current Raw Superstar), makes his way to the ring. McIntyre says it’s been a minute to Reigns. McIntyre asks Heyman if he missed him. McIntyre says he knows how valuable Reigns’ time is, but he heard him talking about Orton. Reigns won’t be facing Orton at Survivor Series. This Monday, McIntyre will face Orton for the WWE Championship. At Survivor Series, he’ll face Reigns.

A lot has changed since the last time they were in the ring together. When was that? It was when McIntyre eliminated Reigns to win the Royal Rumble. Since then he made Heyman’s client his bitch and defeated him at WrestleMania. Reigns disappeared before WrestleMania, leaving the fans high and dry. Someone had to step up and it was Drew McIntyre. Reigns sees being a top guy as a right, but McIntyre is the top guy now.

Reigns says he respects McIntyre and what he said was true, but he’s back now. Ever since he came back, no one knows who McIntyre is. Reigns doesn’t watch Raw (Heyman says nobody does). Reigns says no one watches Raw — they watch SmackDown for him. Now that McIntyre failed his audition, he should say who he is. McIntyre asks Reigns if he really wants to know who he is. McIntyre says he’s the guy that will beat Randy Orton for the WWE Championship on Raw, he’ll head to Survivor Series as WWE Champion, and he’s the guy who will show Reigns who the secondary champion really is.

Jey Uso runs down and steps between them. Uso says this isn’t Monday. It’s Friday Night SmackDown. They run this show. What is McIntyre doing here? McIntyre is being real disrespectful. Daniel Bryan and Kevin Owens were disrespectful and he got them. It seems like he has to get McIntyre, too. Uso challenges McIntyre to a match. Uso drops the microphone before McIntyre can say anything, so McIntyre shoves him down. Reigns holds Uso back and stares at McIntyre. Reigns and Uso then leave the ring.

After commercials, we go backstage to see Roman Reigns shouting at Jey Uso. Reigns runs this show. Nobody told Jey Uso to interfere in his business or make matches for himself. Reigns makes the decisions around here. Uso says he’ll handle it and walks off.

WWE Intercontinental Championship
Sami Zayn (c) vs. Apollo Crews

WWE Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn is already in the ring. Zayn says he found out at 7 p.m. that he has to defend his title against Apollo Crews, a former United States Champion… on one hour notice! This is sabotage by WWE, but he’ll get through it. It’ll be an opportunity to show Bobby Lashley the difference between the US Champion and the Intercontinental Champion. Zayn had to beat two future WWE Hall of Famers just to get the title back he never lost. Who else has had to do that?

Zayn attacks Crews at the sound of the bell. Zayn has a whip reversed, and Crews shoulder blocks him down and clotheslines him. Crews shoulders him in the corner before military pressing him over his head and dropping him face-first on the top turnbuckle. Zayn rolls out of the ring to recover. Crews gets him in the ring and blocks a suplex. Crews connects with a suplex followed by a standing moonsault for a near fall. Crews sends Zayn into the ropes, but Zayn rolls out of the ring. Zayn rips the apron down. Zayn drives Crews face-first into the steel supports of the ring. Zayn then gets Crews’ leg tied up in the canvas ropes and gets in the ring to get the count-out win.

Winner by Count-Out and still WWE Intercontinental Champion: Sami Zayn
