WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: THE STREAK CONTINUES, ROMAN HAS A NEW FRIEND TO PLAY WITH, A DEBUT THAT WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN, AND IT IS FINALLY OVER

By Richard Trionfo on 2020-11-13 21:59:00

We are in Orlando, Florida and your announcers are Michael Cole and Corey Graves.

WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns makes his way to the ring with Paul Heyman.

Roman asks Paul what do you call this place?  The Island of Relativity?  Paul says it is because you make it relevant.  The numbers don't lie.  You can look at it in the flesh.  Look at my cousin Jey Uso.  Before, you didn't which twin was which, but now he is main event Jey Uso.  Look at the last two weeks.  Two weeks ago, he beat Daniel Bryan.  Last week, he destroyed Kevin Owens.  He will lead his team to victory at Survivor Series.  I will establish my dominance and I will beat WWE's secondary champion Randy Orton.

When you think about Randy Orton, which I don't, he is the person whose accomplishments you can respect, but not respect the man himself.

Drew McIntyre's music plays and he makes his way to the ring while Paul has a shocked look on his face.

Drew says it has been a minute.  He asks Paul if he misses him.  Drew says he was passing through town and he knows how valuable Roman's time is.  He says he heard Roman talking about Randy Orton.  You won't be meeting Randy at Survivor Series.  I am beating Randy Orton at Raw and it will be you versus me at Survivor Series.  A lot has changed since the last time we were in the ring together.  I was eliminating you at the Royal Rumble the last time we were in the ring together.  

Do you remember what happened since then?  I made your client my bitch in five minutes at Wrestlemania.  Do you remember Wrestlemania?  No, you weren't there.  You left us and the fans high and dry.  Someone had to stand up and that someone was Drew McIntyre.  Drew says it was a priviliege to be on top.  You consider it a rite, while I consider it an honor.  I am the man and I will prove it at Survivor Series.

Roman tells Drew he likes him and he respects what Drew said.  Roman says he is back now and ever since I came back, nobody knows who you are.  I don't watch Raw.  It is all good.  Nobody watches Raw because everyone watches Smackdown.  They all want to watch me.  Now that you have failed your audition here, tell us who is Drew McIntyre.

Drew asks Roman if he wants to tell him who Drew McIntyre is.  Drew is the man who is going to beat Randy Orton on Raw and go into Survivor Series and I am going to show you.

Jey Uso comes to the ring and he tells Roman he has this.

Jey wants to know what Drew is doing here.  This ain't Monday, it's Friday night and we run this place.  You are being real disrespectful.  Daniel and Kevin were disrespectful and I got them.  Now I am going to get you.  Me and you, one on one tonight.  What do you say?

Drew starts to answer and Jey drops the mic.

Drew pushes Jey down and then he gets in Roman's face.

Jey, Roman, and Paul leave the ring while Drew stands in the middle.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Roman yells at Jey and tells him he runs this place.  He did not tell Jey to come out and do anything.  He should not make his own matches.  Roman says he handles this.

Sami Zayn says he was told at 7PM tonight that he had to defend his Intercontinental Championship tonight.  Not against any performer but a former champion, Apollo Crews.  You give me one hour's notice?  Tell me that does not reek of sabotage.  They are trying to sabotage the champion of the people.  Sami says he will make this into an opportunity to show everyone the difference between the Intercontinental Champion and a United States Champion.  I had to jump through so many hoops.  I had to beat two future hall of famers for a title I never lost.

Match Number One:  Apollo Crews versus Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship

Zayn with punches as he backs Crews into the corner.  Sami with a chop and Crews with a body block and clothesline.  Crews with a splash into the corner and he presses Sami over his head and sends Sami into the turnbuckles.  Sami goes to the floor and Crews brings Sami back into the ring.  Sami with a kick and he tries for a suplex but Crews blocks it.  Crews with a suplex of his own.  Crews with an enzuigiri and then he hits a standing moonsault for a near fall.

Zayn goes to the floor and then he pulls the ring skirt off the apron.  Sami sends Crews into the edge of the apron and then Sami puts Crews' leg in the frame of the apron and ties his leg to keep Crews out of the ring for the ten count.

Winner:  Sami Zayn (retains championship)

Adam Pearce is in the back with Drew McIntyre and he says he cannot sanction a match but they can have a fight.

Drew asks Adam if he knows what Drew is about and they agree to make the match.  Drew tells Adam to have Roman get a front row seat.

Kayla Braxton is in the back with Rey Mysterio and his family.

Rey says tonight's match is not about him or about Seth taking out his eye at Extreme Rules.  Things changed when he started targeting his family.  He devoted his time to destroy them by bringing out secrets, not knowing how strong of a bond his family is carrying.  Tonight will be the final chapter.  What he has done will culminate in one final match.  Seth calls himself the Messiah but he is nothing more than the devil to him.  For him, for his family, for the WWE Universe, and for all the powers above, he will send Seth back to that soul crushing hell he belongs.

Smackdown Women's Champion Sasha Banks makes her way to the ring.

We go to commercial.

We are back and Drew McIntyre will face Jey Uso in an Unsanctioned Match (so it does not affect the win-loss records or rankings)

Sasha Banks is in the ring and she tells all of the haters who thought that she could win the title but not retain it, I am standing here as your Smackdown Women's Champion and damn does it feel good.  After the past six months after the highs and lows, it is enough to end anybody but not me.  I am on top of my game and the women's division.  All of the women in the back are put on notice.

Sasha says she knows that Carmella is watching in the back.

Bayley's music plays and she makes her way to the ring, but . . . 

Sasha turns around into a super kick from Carmella and Carmella gives Sasha an X Factor.

We go to the dining area and Otis is eating a lot of food.

Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode talk about Otis and how Tucker turned on him but they are doing it three feet away from Otis so Otis is able to hear them and he pushes over the table and his foot falls to the floor as Dolph and Roode leave.

We go to commercial.

We are back and so will Tribute to the Troops.

Match Number Two:  Dolph Ziggler (with Robert Roode) versus Otis Dozovic

Dolph slaps Otis and Otis biels Dolph across the ring.  Otis with forearms to Dolph and the referee warns him.  Otis with a splash into the corner.  Roode gets on the apron to stop the Caterpillar and Otis punches Roode.  Ziggler with a Zig Zag for a near fall.  Dolph has a super kick blocks and Otis with a power slam.  Otis with a caterpillar and elbow drop.  Otis goes to the corner for the Vader Bomb but Roode gets on the apron to stop Otis.  Otis is still able to hit the Vader Bomb for the three count.

Winner:  Otis Dozovic

Seth Rollins is talking to Buddy Murphy in the back as we go to commercial.

We are back and Otis Dozovic is in the back talking about his victory and Chad Gable says Otis needs to be doing that every week.  Chad says that Otis needs discipline and a mentor to unlock his inner Alpha.  Chad gives Otis a flyer for the Alpha Academy.  Otis likes the idea.
