We are live from the BOK Center in Tulsa, OK, as Roman Reigns makes his way to the ring to star this week’s episode of “Super” Smackdown.
Reigns marches to the ring as Cole shows us stills from The Big Dog’s Falls Count Anywhere win over King Baron Corbin at Sunday’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Cole also talks about how it came down to Reigns and winner Drew McIntyre in Sunday’s 30-Man Royal Rumble main event. The Usos are out next for tonight’s opener, which is a rematch from last Friday, won by The Bloodline.
Roman says he knows Tulsa can do better. He says the Royal Rumble came and went. The good news is he whooped Corbin’s ass all over that baseball stadium. The bad news is… Jimmy says that he lost. Roman says he doesn’t like to lose. He says they will get through the King and his bitches and then they can focus on Wrestlemania.
Baron Corbin’s music plays and he is joined by Rovbert Roode and Dolph Ziggler.
Baron tells Roman he knows for a fact that without the help of your cousins, you couldn’t beat him on Sunday. Baron says Roman cheated his way to victory. If you hadn’t beaten him like savages, he would have been in better condition for the Royal Rumble and would have been pointing at the Wrestlemania sign. Because of that, he demanded a six man tag match and you will pay for what you did.
Jimmy interrupts and he asks Baron why is he so mad. He says Baron is a bit confused. Should we remind Baron of what has been going on. They super kicked Dolph and Roode. Then they Superman punched Dolph and Roode. Then they speared Dolph and Roode. Then all of that happened to Corbin. You are playing checkers while they are playing chess. Jey tells Baron checkmate.
Baron says you had a lot of time for board games while you were sitting at home after embarassing your family. They were here embarassing your cousin. In case you missed it, we see how Dolph, Baron, and Roode humiliated Roman.
After the video, Roman tells Baron he is living in the past and he thinks that is the greatest moment in his life. Or maybe he has a dog food fetish. Roman suggests that they add a stipulation. The loser of the match eats dog food. Baron accepts the stipulation. Jimmy says they have a big surprise and they bring out a cart of dog food. Jimmy says he hopes they are hungry.
