WWE SmackDown kicks off with Randy Orton’s music and he walks down to the ring. Orton welcomes everyone to SmackDown. He says he can count the amount of people that he trusts on one hand but Cody Rhodes is one of those people that he can trust. They have known each other for a very long time, they know each other very well and it was hard for him to see Cody Rhodes agree to team up with Roman Reigns at Bad Blood.
He says it doesn’t sit right with him and he needs an explanation. He asks Cody to come out and explain to him.
Cody’s music hits and out he comes to the ring. He stands in the ring and the fans chant “Cody”. He asks the fans and more specifically Randy Orton, what they want to talk about. Cody says Cody deserves an explanation and perhaps Cody looks a bit of a fool teaming with Roman Reigns but he asks Randy if he would rather be a fool or a coward.
He says it got tasked to him. He says Roman looked him in the eye and he gave him his word and he also gave him his word when he said he would do everything to keep the title and he did. He says he will take Roman for his word and the fans will also take him for his word. Cody says but of all people, he is standing with the legend killer, which is why he would hope that Orton would understand. Because the legend of this outlaw Bloodline has grown so much that it is time for it to be killed.
Cody tells Orton that he hopes it’s not a problem for him. Cody extends his hand and Orton shakes it. He tells Cody that he has no problem unless Cody makes it a problem.
Out comes Kevin Owens. All three men are in the ring and Solo Sikoa’s music hits and out comes Solo with The Bloodline. Solo says he is very happy that the three of them are in the ring because it saves him a lot of trouble.
Solo tells the fans to acknowledge him. Solo tells Cody that Roman gave COdy his word and he should trust him because he is going to need him. Because the two men in the ring with him won’t be any good for Cody. Solo asks how long Cody has been tryign to take out The Bloodline because every time he tries with Orton and Owens, they let him down. Solo says the reason Cody will team up with Roman Reigns is because every time he tries to take down The Bloodline with them, they let him down every time and to acknowledge that.
Owens says the only thing they have to acknowledge is that no one cares what Solo has to say. Owens says he wants to see what will happen in their tag team match. Cody tries to join the tag team match but Owens tells Cody that Cody has the Bloodline at Bad Blood and that he and Orton have The Bloodline tonight in a match. Kevin’s music hits and we cut to the Michael Cole and Corey Graves.
