WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: MANY CHANCES TO DETERMINE THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER, FRUITCAKE CASUALTY, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2019-12-27 21:58:00

We are in Detroit, Michigan and your announcers are Corey Graves and Michael Cole.

Elias is in the ring and he has a song for you.  

Baron Corbin has something to say before he makes his way to the ring.  Baron says he sees Daniel Bryan chomping at the bit and this is his kingdom and we do things his way.  All of these people like you.  That is because these bottom feeders are jealous of his success.  Baron says he will make this very simple.  You and the Miz have families.  You and the Miz are terrible fathers.  You and the Miz want to face Bray Wyatt.  You and the Miz are former World Champions who have main evented Wrestlemania.  If you think you are going to win, the Fiend ripped out some brain matter in addition to your hair.  You should step aside because it is an absolute disgrace that the King has to compete tonight.  He earned his opportunity when he beat Roman Reigns twice.  That is something that no one has done since Roman's return.  The people should be begging him to vanquish Bray Wyatt.  The strongest superstar should be Universal Champion.  You are a nice guy, but you are no longer championship material.  Just like the Miz who plays an action hero in the movies but he is not a hero.  He is the only one who can beat Bray Wyatt.

Roman Reigns' music plays and Corbin falls of his sedan.  His minions leave and Roman with an uppercut to Corbin.  Corbin sends Roman into the ringside barrier and Roman does the same to Corbin.  Roman with a Superman punch off the ring steps.  Roman winds up for a spear and Corbin goes into the crowd.  Officials stop Roman from following after Corbin.

We go to commercial.

We are back with a look back at what happened before the commercial break thanks to Roman Reigns.

Baron Corbin is in the back and he wants the match to be postponed.  Adam Pearce says he does not have the power to delay the match.

Michael asks Corey if the match should be postponed and Corey says it should be postponed.

The New Day make their way to the ring.
