WWE SmackDown results: Live recap, grades as Roman Reigns gets his house in order ahead of Crown Jewel
Roman #Roman
Roman Reigns needs to course correct. Reigns heads to the blue brand of SmackDown to steady The Bloodline ship after a rocky conclusion to last week’s show. WWE SmackDown kicks off at 8 p.m. ET as the organization continues to ready for WWE Crown Jewel.
Reigns directed his subordinates in The Bloodline to avoid contact with Logan Paul ahead of their showdown at Crown Jewel. The ultra-temperamental Jey Uso went into business for himself and was ultimately laid out by Paul. The scuffle reaffirmed Paul’s belief that one lucky punch could grant him the undisputed WWE universal championship. Reigns will certainly get his house in order as “The Head of the Table” ahead of his main event showdown with Paul in Saudi Arabia on Nov. 5.
Three matches are scheduled ahead of Friday’s show. SmackDown women’s champion Ronda Rousey defends her title in an open challenge, Ridge Holland and Butch seek retribution for their injured comrade Sheamus against The Bloodline and Hit Row enlists a secret partner in their war against Legado Del Fantasma.
