The action of the blue mark of Wwe is issued from VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena, on Jacksonville, Florida.

The Usos went so far as to open the show prior to their scheduled match and sued the Street Profits for meddling in their family affairs. Roman Reigns watched attentively from his dressing room.
The Street Profits came to the ring and taunted their rivals before the action began.
The Usos are upset that the Street Profits went where they shouldn’t.
And what did they expect? When you are the champion, whether solo or as a couple, everyone wants your title. #SmackDown

WWE SMACKDOWN September 3, 2021 | Live results | Roman Reigns vs. Finn Bálor
1. The Usos vs. The Street Profits
Following the events of a week ago, this match took place, with the Street Profits looking for a chance to rise to the top again. However, the champions began to attack with force. Ford was dominated for a few minutes, until he finally reached where Dawkins managed to beat both opponents. Ford almost took the win with his big iron.
The end
- Fresh opponents for The Usos.
- It was to be expected, what follows will be a title match
After the fight, Montez Ford threw himself on top of Jimmy and Jey and they were left standing. Backstage, Roman Reigns asked Paul Heyman to call the Usos.
Shiuuuuuuuu, it seems that the Tribal Chief got angry#SDCL #SmackDown

Paul Heyman was interviewed backstage and looked annoyed by the Brock Lesnar issue, although the phone rang with a Brock Lesnar ringtone, but he answered the phone looking very nervous.
Following the call, Kayla Braxton taunted Heyman and Big E as well, after she revealed herself in her janitor costume.
Becky Lynch appeared in the ring and received a standing ovation from the audience; however, he was upset with them for not receiving the “You deserve it.” Getting to the point, he referred to Bianca Belair and praised her talent, but criticized her for making her look like the bad guy in the movie, when in fact she saved her fight at SummerSlam in the absence of Sasha Banks. Then he reminded him of how he got his victory.
Bianca Belair arrived on the scene and said she went so far to become Champion, only to lose it in 26 seconds, and admitted to being embarrassed; however, he said he would not make excuses, but did tell him not to take his name when addressing the public. Then, he added that he will return to the top and reminds him that he has his revenge and challenges her to do the same as Roman Reigns: defend his title.
Becky was short and concise. He said no.
Backstage, Dolph Ziggler saw Toni Storm ask her to join him in his corner for their match; however, Toni told him that she was a fan of Ric Boogs.
And Ric Boogs made the classic presentation of the Intercontinental Champion, King Nakamura.

2. Rick Boogs vs. Dolph ziggler
Boogs was on a roll against a Ziggler who couldn’t get Toni Storm in his corner. Much struggle on the part of both fighters, with Ziggler very close to winning.
The end
- Rick Boogs rise like foam
- Poor Ziggler. Lose like this?
Becky Lynch was approached by Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville, who told her that she will defend her championship at Extreme Rules. Also, next week she and Bianca will sign the respective contract.

3. Cesaro vs. Seth rollins
And this was a WrestleMania rematch, curiously requested by Seth Rollins. The action began with a dominance of the Swiss Superman, but Rollins responded in a good way until he almost fell prey to the Cesaro Swing, but responded with an Edgecution. The minutes passed and the match turned into a round trip, and Cesaro again insisted on the Swing, and finally got it for a total of 17 laps, but Rollins reached the ropes and was saved.
The end
- Very good fight. Cesaro and Rollins are some of the best in this business.
- The way Rollins embraces the arsenal of others is impressive.
- Another disqualification? Well
How Cesaro connects with the WWE Universe. #SmackDown

After the fight, Rollins punished Cesaro with the same chair, and in the ring, he removed a piece of metal from the chair and applied the Crossface to Cesaro, similar to the one applied by Edge.
Rollins called Edge and stomped Cesaro. Then, he went for a couple of chairs, but before applying the Conchairto, Edge reached the salve and Rollins had to flee.
In dressing rooms, Reigns recriminated The Usos for what happened and warned them that it should not be repeated. Heyman told Reigns they have a problem with Brock Lesnar, Reigns said he will tear Balor and Lesnar apart, but Heyman told him The Beast will be on SmackDown next week.
Reigns began questioning Heyman and he looked nervous. In fact, he doubted him and even contemplated the possibility of Lesnar showing up tonight.
Happy Corbin arrived in a Bentley and treated his interviewer like Valet.
Edge touched on Seth Rollins’ actions and said he should stop it. So he challenged him to a match next week, and said this will not end very well.
Kevin Owens arrived for his KO Show, and without further ado introduced his guest: Happy Corbin, who looked very happy and thanked Kevin Owens for his recent success.
Then, to KO’s astonishment, Corbin introduced his guest, Logan Paul, who arrived amid boos. Owens took advantage and reminded him of what the YouTuber told Corbin at SummerSlam, but both said they had settled their differences.
KO took advantage of the situation to make fun of both, but Logan Paul wanted to return the money that he had lent to Corbin, although making fun of him. Owens told him to go away and things got a little physical with Paul; However, Corbin attacked Owens and partied with the YouTuber.
Quoting one of the jokes from one of my favorite series: “Logan Paul is like herpes, once you have it, it won’t go away” 😳 #Smackdown

4. Sami Zayn vs. Dominik Mysterio
It seemed weird not having rematches, but here we did. Dominik Mysterio sought to reverse his situation against Sami Zayn, and once again he came without his father. After an initial dominance by Sami, Dominik managed to turn things in his favor, but did not get 619; Sami was trying to run away, but Rey blocked him and Dominik dived into the air.
The end
- It’s good to see Sami regularly, after an inexplicable absence.
- Both were far from their best version.
Dominik will go little by little disrespecting Rey #SmackDown

Naomi even asked Sonya Deville for a match, but she told her to find her next week.
Finn Bálor was interviewed and said he will answer the question of what would have happened if he was not injured five years ago. However, as he got to his scheduled combat, the Usos arrived and ruthlessly attacked Bálor.
The Street Profits reached the salve, and went in search of the Usos, who fled.

5. WWE Universal Championship: Roman Reigns vs. Finn Bálor
Finn Bálor was looking to regain the Championship that he never lost, but in front of him he had Roman Reigns, who has already been looking unstoppable for more than a year, and the attack suffered seconds before does not help him at all and the Irishman decided to do the heroic. Reigns began dominating the first sections of the fight, but Bálor reacted and focused his attack on the legs of his rival. The minutes passed and the loss of Bálor from the initial attack was more noticeable, but somehow he took an offense like a second wind, but he could not connect the Coup de Grace, and he received a Superman Punch instead and his momentum stopped . Bálor kept insisting with several two-second counts. Not even the Coup de Grace was enough this time, where any other rival would have already succumbed. Reigns reacted with a flurry of punches.
The end
- Bálor proved to be a great rival for Reigns
- Reigns came through without help again, and that sets a good precedent for facing Lesnar.
- By the Lesnar factor, this made the outcome predictable.
AND REMAINS ROMAN REIGNS CHAMPION
HEY BUT PIECE OF FIGHT #SDCL #SmackDown

As Reigns and Heyman left the ring, some red lights went on, but it did not happen to adults. The show went off the air.
