By Richard Trionfo on 2026-06-15 22:35:00

Your announcers are Joe Tessitore and Corey Graves.

We take a look back at Smackdown.

Vehicles arrive at the building and Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso emerge.  Roman greets his belt butler.

Jacob Fatu is waiting in the arena and they walk to the ring.

Roman looks around and he wants Baltimore to acknowledge him.  Roman says there are blessed men in the ring and life is good.  They have a lot to be grateful for.  The Right Hand Man advanced in King of the Ring.  He is taking King of the Ring and he wants Baltimore to acknowledge Jey.   Roman says he is pretty smart.  There are people who are going to try to pick holes and piss him off.  They are going to say that you favor Jey.  You have nothing good to say about Jim.  As the twins have always said, it is day one-ish.  All the way back to the beginning.  If it wasn't for Big Jim, there would be no Right Hand Man.  If it wasn't for Big Jim there would be no Tribal Chief.  If it wasn't for Big Jim, there would be no Bloodline.  Roman wants Baltimore to acknowledge him.  

Jey says he appreciates the love.  He says that there is one person who hasn't been acknowledged.  One person who needs to be addressed.  One person whose ass doesn't listen.  One person who needs to acknowledge them.  

Roman says it sounds like we have a problem.  Roman looks at Fatu while Jimmy stands next to Jey behind Roman.  Roman asks Fatu if he doesn't want to listen to the twins or acknowledge them.

Fatu takes the mic from Roman and Roman has to hold Jey back.

Fatu says when it comes to Jey and Jimmy, does he listent to them?  Hell Nah!.  The only person he acknowledges is his OTC, Roman Reigns.  

Fatu hands the mic back to Roman and Roman takes it.

Roman gets in Fatu's face and he tells Fatu good.  We don't need yes men around here.

Roman asks for the box and it is opened.

Roman pulls out an ula fala.

He tells Jacob they are terrified back there.  He says he hears the rumbles and whispers.  They say the Bloodline is going to run things.  They have always run things.  They are forever.  When the Wild Samoans were running the territories, that was the Bloodline.  When Yokozuna was champ, that was the Bloodline.  When Rikishi was dancing, when Umaga main evented Wrestlemania, when the Usos became teh greatest tag team, when he was born, that was the Bloodline.  When your kids are tagging with his kids in twenty years, that is the Bloodline.  

You say you are the outsider and have always been on the outside.  No more.  You are on the inside.  Welcome to the Family Business.  He welcomes Jacob to the Bloodline.  

Jimmy and Jey hesitate to put their fingers up, but they do it.

Eric Andre shakes hands with Roman Reigns from the crowd because they are in Street Fighter together.

He plays with the ula fala and Fatu attacks Andre and brings him into the ring.  Fatu goes up top and Roman points his finger because Fatu is now a Jurassic World raptor.

Roman changes his mind and Fatu with a frog splash.

Roman tells Fatu 'one more time' and Fatu hits another frog splash.

Eric is helped up the aisle, but chooses not to be put on a stretcher.

Byron welcomes Flair back to Raw and Flair wooos.  

Byron mentions her match on Friday against Liv and her match tonight against Roxanne Perez.  He asks if this is a trap.

Flair asks if she was trying to get Danhausen to curse her.  Is it smart to have a match before her tournament match on Friday.  It is probably not the smartest thing to have a match against Roxanne.  Her biggest advantage is Alexa Bliss.

Alexa says Liv might be a champ now, but Charlotte will always be the queen.  

Flair says everyone bows to Allies of Convenience.

We have a video package for Danhausen and the NBA playoffs.

LA Knight makes his way to the ring.

He wants to talk to you.  He says if you missed Smackdown, this is how he ended his night (he lays down on the mat).  He says he was right about one thing because he laid in that ring and he thought he could lay there all weekend, but he had to get to Baltimore.  Knight made a call and a friend told him to come home for a few days and unwind.  Knight says he had to get to Baltimore.  He gets another call on the drive to Baltimore.  He told him that King of the Ring is out of reach and take the week off and don't go to Raw.  Knight told him he had to get to Baltimore.  He says he is in Baltimore and he is home.

Knight stops Jey and he says he wants to guess and he asks if Jey wants him to acknowledge Roman.

Jey says he is better than Knight and he knocked him out of the tournament.  He tells Knight to acknowledge him.

Knight asks if it was fair and square because he saw Solo out there.  Knight says with all of the numbers against him, that sounds like a compelling offer.  Knight tells Jey he acknowledges that Jey can kiss his ass.
