SmackDown started with Kevin Owens, who made his way to the ring. I wanted Roman, but he wouldn’t come out.
Heyman appears on the big screen and says he is surprised that Owens is coming back from last week and wants more. Owens decided to go back and look for Reigns.
Backstage, Owens went to Reigns’ locker room. Suddenly, Reigns’ music began to sing. Roman came out of the ring while Owens watched on a monitor. He told Owens to recognize him as the head of the tribe and the head of the family. Reigns asked Owens to go to the ring and apologize, otherwise he wouldn’t even get to TLC. Owens went to the ring, but Jey Uso attacked him from behind. Reigns and Uso brutally beat Owens in the hallway.
In the back, Reigns told Uso to take Owens out. Uso went to look for him.
The Street Profits defeated Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode to keep the tag team titles.
In the back, Kevin Owens was looking for Reigns. Suddenly, Jey Uso attacked Owens with a chair and told him to stay put.
The Riott team defeated Billie Kay and Tamina
Carmella’s champagne toast
Carmella’s sommelier was in the ring preparing everything for toast. Carmella said Banks was disqualified last week because Banks knew she could not win. Carmella promised to win the title on Sunday.
Sasha Banks’ music sounded and the sommelier ran up the ramp. The benches appeared in the ring on the other side and threw champagne at Carmella and slapped the sommelier. Suddenly, Carmella broke a bottle of champagne on Banks’ back and overturned it.

Behind him, Sami Zayn was nervously preparing for the Sami Awards. Big E came out from behind and picked up the envelopes.
Sami Zayn came out in an elegant purple suit and spoke on the podium on stage for the Sami Awards. All the awards were for him, until he announced the final award for superstar of the year. The prize went to Big E, who surprised Zayn. Big E came out and accepted the award. Zayn said there must be a mistake. Big E slammed Zayn on the table and threw him on the ramp.
Big E thanked the fans and celebrated their victory.
Bayley defeated Bianca Belair after scratching her eyes.
Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman and Jey Uso go out in the ring. Reigns, assuming Owens would not be able to compete, said he did not understand why he destroyed the opportunity.
Owens’s music sang, and he limped into the ring. Owens grabbed a chair and went after Uso, but Roman started attacking him.
Then Uso slammed Owens against a table and prepared a second table. Then Reigns gave Owens a Samoan Drop through the second table. The gentlemen then buried Owens under broken tables, stairs, chairs and several tables.
Reigns and Uso then went backwards with Owens buried under tables, stairs and chairs.
In the back, Kayla Braxton interviewed Reigns, Heyman and Uso in front of a monitor, but I see that in the ring, Owens got up and took a microphone and promised to win the Universal title, otherwise he would die trying, Show.
