Roman Reigns is a tyrant. He has been a Universal Champion for 369 days and does not seem like anyone can beat him. In one way or another, it manages to bring all its defenses forward. The mode does not matter, only the result. This Friday, on SmackDown, he showed it again. Roman exposed his belt to Finn Balor, who had claimed this opportunity several weeks ago. It was a rival that was on the rise and of great quality, for that reason Jimmy and Jey Uso (who had lost against Street Profits at the beginning of the show) decided to pave the way for their cousin and attacked him as he was entering the ring. Roman saw how everything was on his side … and yet Balor showed his usual courage and put the champion in trouble. All mirages, because Reigns always finds a way to win. A low blow and a guillotine were his weapons to end the fight this time. Balor deserves another equal chance, but will he get it? In a week, Brock Lesnar returns to SmackDown and anything is possible.
While, Becky Lynch already knows who will be her next rival in Extreme Rules (September 26). The Irishman puffed out her victory at SummerSlam and despised her rivals. Bianca belair He claimed an opportunity on the same SmackDown, but the champion rejected it. It will have to face in the next PPV, since the authority decreed it. Regarding women’s titles, although on Raw, WWE announced during the broadcast that Charlotte Flair will expose the red brand belt in front of Nia Jax.
The rest of the program highlights the movement that WWE is making little by little so that Logan paul I ended up doing a match. Kevin Owens interviewed Happy Corbin in his segment and the Youtuber interrupted them. After several offenses, KO went for him and Corbin defended the celebrity. In terms of fighting, the highlight was a new defeat of Dominik Mysterio. This time against Sami Zayn and again by a distraction caused by his father, Rey Mysterio. In the rest of the night’s fights, Rick Boogs defeated Dolph Ziggler and Cesaro to Seth Rollins, although this fight had history. Seth attacked the Swiss with a chair and proceeded to attack him, but Edge entered the scene and went after Rollins, who fled. He does not want the injury that caused him to repeat itself with others.
