And John… this is the worst possible outcome for you.
But for me?
This is perfect.
Because now… I get to decide how your story ends.
You talk about respect… loyalty… legacy…
I’m going to make sure you don’t even get the chance to say goodbye.
At Saturday Night’s Main Event… I don’t just beat you—
I end you.
I will leave you laid out… carried away on a stretcher…
And when you’re gone?
That ‘Hustle, Loyalty, Respect’ era…
is gone forever.

This is the beginning of the Ruler Era.
I am not the future…
I am the end of yours.”

WWE SmackDown – 12 December 2025

Commentary: Michael Cole & Corey Graves
Nick Aldis:“I listened to Cody Rhodes’ request to lift Drew McIntyre’s ban… and I gave it serious consideration. I even spoke to Drew personally.
But here’s the truth—Drew McIntyre didn’t just want his ban lifted… he wanted control. Conditions, demands… things that compromise the integrity of this show.
And when I refused… Drew accused me of holding him back. Of stopping him from becoming Undisputed Champion.
Let me make one thing very clear—
I don’t care who you are… I don’t care how dominant you’ve been…
This show is built on fairness.
And until Drew McIntyre is willing to play by those rules…
His ban… stays in place.”

Cody Rhodes’ music hits
Cody walks to the ring, serious, focused.
Cody Rhodes: “You know what I wanna talk about?
Drew McIntyre.
Still banned. Still not here.

(Crowd reacts)
“You keep talking about this ‘new era’…
So go on—explain it to me.
Because from where I’m standing… this era is doing just fine.”
Cody holds up the title)
“I’ve been up since 5AM this morning—media, appearances… and yeah, I even took time to visit some sick kids.
That’s what a champion does.
So tell me… what’s Drew McIntyre been doing?
Sitting at home?
Posting on X?
Making demands he knows he’s never gonna get?”
(Crowd booing Drew)
And you think that’s the future?
I don’t.”
Interrupting Music
Ricky Saints comes to the ring, confident.
Ricky Saints: Cody… why are you wasting your time talking about Drew McIntyre?
Because standing right in front of you… is your future.”
Crowd reacts)
“I’m the NXT Champion now.
And that means tomorrow night at Saturday Night Main Event…
It’s you… versus me.
A match we’ve been waiting for since 2012.
Mentor… versus student.”
Steps closer)
So maybe—just maybe—
you should stop worrying about Drew…
And start worrying about me.”
Cody smiles.
Cody Rhodes: You’ve come a long way since 2012… and I mean that. I’m proud of you.
You went to NXT… you proved yourself… and now you’ve got gold.”

I’m not your mentor anymore.

What exactly qualifies you to compete at Saturday Night’s Main Event?
An event celebrating John Cena’s final run…”
Miz smirks)
“You weren’t even born when Cena made his debut.
I’ve been in this business as long as you’ve been alive…
And I don’t even get booked.
So tell me—what makes Jevon Evans better than The Miz?”
Jevon steps forward, unfazed.
Jevon Evans: “That’s easy.
I’m not living off what I did 10 years ago…
I’m what’s next.”

This is 2025.
And I’m the future of this company.”

Commentary: Michael Cole & Wade Barrett

Stephanie McMahon appears on screen

Stephanie McMahon:

“Tonight… is a sad night for WWE.

Last night, the world watched John Cena stand in that ring… and for a moment, it felt like his career—his legacy—was hanging by a thread.

But I want to take you back… to late 2002.

My father was actually considering releasing him.

He hadn’t become a superstar yet… he was just another young talent trying to survive.

Then one night, I heard him rapping backstage.

There was something different about him… something special.

I told him, ‘Go show my dad.’

He did… and the rest is history.

That moment didn’t just save a career… it created the greatest of all time.

So John… after everything you’ve given to this business…

I truly hope you get the ending you deserve.

And when you step into the ring with Obi Femi…

I hope you remind the world… exactly who you are.”

That rookie… was John Cena.

He pushed me to my limit that night.

Yeah, I won… but everybody watching knew something special had just happened.

A star was born.

And look at what you became, John…

A 17-time World Champion. One of the greatest to ever step inside that ring.

You’ve already cemented your legacy… as one of the all-time greats.”

⸻

Meanwhile, John Cena was the guy.

I’ll be honest—I didn’t like it.

I thought you were the chosen one. The company guy. The golden boy.

But then we stepped into the ring together…

And you earned my respect.

Because no matter what anyone says… you showed up, every night, and you delivered.

So yeah… WWE’s losing a massive star.

And replacing John Cena?

That’s not happening.”

⸻

The Rock appears on screen

The Rock:

“The Rock’s not gonna lie…

He couldn’t stand John Cena.

And yeah… that didn’t sit right with The Rock.

But then something happened…

The Rock got to know you.

And he realised—you weren’t just talking… you were carrying this company on your back.

Week after week. Year after year.

We went to war… and somewhere along the way… we became brothers.

So John…

Enjoy your retirement.

And before you go—

Go out there… and lay the smackdown on Obi Femi.”

You always had my respect… and you always will.

You’re not just a rival…

You’re my friend.

Have a good retirement, John.”

“When I came back to WWE… it was so we could have that match together.

It wasn’t easy… but it happened.

Something a man in my position can do… a level you haven’t reached yet, Bron.

You’re not famous because you’re great…

You’re famous because you’re Rick Steiner’s son… or Paul Heyman’s latest project.

You only beat me because of that masked man.

And when I find out who he is… you’re both getting it.

Paul’s really got you believing you can beat CM Punk?

That just makes you a dumbass.

That’s Paul’s job—hype people up… right before they fall.

But if you’re serious…

And when I’m done with you…

Cody Rhodes’ music hits

Cody Rhodes comes to the ring looking serious.

Cody Rhodes:
“Since 2012, I have wanted to wrestle my good friend Ricky Saints in WWE.

I had that opportunity at Saturday Night Main Event.

I wanted to give the audience a classic, but Drew McIntyre spoiled it.

I heard Drew was training at the Performance Centre, so I paid him a visit.

This is what happens when Nick Aldis refuses to lift Drew McIntyre’s ban.”

Nick Aldis appears

Nick Aldis:
“Cody, I told you Drew has been making crazy demands behind the scenes to lift his ban, and I wasn’t doing it.
You went behind my back and sorted it out yourself.
That’s not how things work on SmackDown.”

Cody Rhodes:
“The WWE Universe wants you to lift Drew’s ban.
They want a proper winner in our feud.
You’re making things difficult for me and Drew.”
Nick Aldis:
“I’m going to do what’s right for SmackDown.
And for your actions, you are fined one week’s wages.”
Cody Rhodes:
“I’m not bothered.
I’ll keep doing this until I get my match with Drew McIntyre.”
Cody drops the mic and leaves.
Nick Aldis looks angry.

RAW – 22 December 2025

Commentary: Michael Cole & Corey Graves

Backstage segment

Logan Paul is standing backstage, pacing slightly. Paul Heyman approaches him, looking intrigued.

Paul Heyman:

Logan… I have to admit, I’m confused.

Why the mask?

And why… are you helping The Vision?

Logan Paul:

(confident, irritated)

You wanna know why? I’m sick of the disrespect.

People like us built this place into what it is right now.

I’m the reason we’re on Netflix… my name is on the damn ring mat…

and what do I get? Nothing. No World Heavyweight Championship. No recognition.

Meanwhile, CM Punk runs his mouth on podcasts, trashes us…

and gets rewarded for it.

(shakes head)

Guys like AJ Styles keep stealing the spotlight—

while the future gets ignored.

I’m talking about Bron Breakker…

Sami Zayn…

Austin Theory…

They should be leading this company.

(pauses, smirks)

So yeah… if working with The Vision is what it takes to fix WWE—

then that’s exactly what I’m gonna do.

Heyman slowly smiles, clearly intrigued by what he’s hearing.

Rhea Ripley vs Asuka

After a hard-hitting back-and-forth match, Asuka locks in the Asuka Lock, but Rhea powers out. Rhea counters a strike, hits the Riptide, and pins Asuka for the win.

Rhea Ripley stands tall as the crowd reacts.

RAW – Locker Room Segment (The Vision)

Sami Zayn: I don’t like this. We don’t even know if we can trust Logan Paul. This isn’t some influencer group—this is our vision.

Paul Heyman: Sami… Logan Paul is the biggest mainstream star in this company. A man who has been denied his rightful place at the top.
While people like AJ Styles and CM Punk cling to the spotlight…
Logan Paul represents the future.
Tonight—you team with Logan Paul.
You face CM Punk and AJ Styles.
If you win… Logan Paul joins The Vision.
If you lose… he’s out.
(Paul Heyman leaves the room)
Sami Zayn: This is a mistake…
Bron Breakker:No… this is pressure. Either he proves himself—or he’s gone.
Austin Theory:
Guess we’ll find out if your boy Logan’s actually worth the hype.
(Sami looks frustrated as the tension builds)

Jevon Evans vs JD McDonagh
JD McDonagh targets the arm early, trying to slow Evans down. Jevon fights back with speed, hitting quick strikes and high-impact offense.
JD goes for a finisher, but Evans counters, hits a fast-paced combination, and connects with his finisher to pin JD McDonagh for the win.
Jevon Evans celebrates as the crowd reacts to the impressive victory.

Cathy Kelley interviews Bronson Reed and Randy Orton
Cathy Kelley: How do you both feel about defending your Raw Tag Team Championships against The Usos next week on Monday Night Raw?
Randy Orton: You know, Cathy… as my good friend Ric Flair used to say—

to be the best, you’ve got to beat the best.

And The Usos? They’ve been the standard for a long time…

but standards fall when they step in the ring with us.

Bronson Reed: I don’t care who it is.

I’m ready for any team that wants to fight us.

And beating a team like The Usos… that’s not just a win—that’s a career highlight.

We’re not giving up these titles.

Bron Breakker appears on screen

Bron Breakker: Finally… CM Punk comes out of hiding.

You said I’ll be forgotten in five years…

Punk, you won’t even last five weeks after what I do to you.

January 5… I’m not just beating you.

I’m finishing you.

One… two… three.

And when it’s over, you won’t be remembered as a legend…

you’ll be remembered as the guy who got ended by Bron Breakker.

You don’t understand what you’re stepping into.

Bron

Sami Zayn is in the locker room. Logan Paul walks in.

Sami Zayn:

Tonight, you listen to me in that ring.

If you follow my plan, we beat CM Punk and AJ Styles… and then you earn your place in The Vision.

Logan Paul:

(laughs, cocky)

Listen to you?

I’m the biggest star on this roster.

And Sami… I don’t need to earn anything.

I’m already part of The Vision.

Logan smirks and walks off.

Sami Zayn:

(under his breath, frustrated)

This is going to be a problem…

Obi Femi walks cockily to the ring.

Obi Femi:

Life is good… because I have retired John Cena.

I’ve upset R-Truth, Sheamus, and AJ Styles… all because they couldn’t accept that their “hero” is gone.

The Ruler Era has begun.

Some people can’t handle change… but I don’t care.

AJ Styles’s music hits.

AJ walks to the ring and stands face-to-face with Obi Femi.

Staredown.

Obi Femi smirks… then slowly backs away, laughing.

AJ Styles looks frustrated in the ring

Commercial Break

AJ Styles & CM Punk vs Logan Paul & Sami Zayn

Late in the match, chaos breaks down.

Logan Paul capitalises on the chaos, hitting a sudden strike and pinning AJ Styles for the win.

Logan Paul and Sami Zayn continue the assault on AJ Styles after the bell.

CM Punk fights back—GTS to Logan Paul… GTS to Sami Zayn!

The crowd erupts—

BUT Bron Breakker storms in and SPEARS CM Punk!

Bron Breakker stands over Punk and slowly lifts the World Heavyweight Championship above his head.

Raw goes off the air.

Nick Aldis’ Office

Cody Rhodes walks in, serious and focused.

Cody Rhodes:

“I want Drew McIntyre for my Undisputed WWE Championship. When do I get him?”

Nick Aldis:

“I spoke to Drew McIntyre this week. And your attack at the Performance Center? It changed things.”

Cody listens, arms folded.

Nick Aldis:

“Drew’s dropped all his demands. But there’s one condition.”

Cody Rhodes:

“Say it.”

Nick Aldis:

“If Drew walks out tonight… and apologises to everyone he’s taken out—staff, officials, superstars—he gets his title match.”

Cody doesn’t look convinced.

Cody Rhodes:

“That’s it?”

Nick Aldis (firm):

“No. If he does… he gets his shot at your Undisputed WWE Championship.”

Pause.

Nick Aldis (measured):

“And he chooses the stipulation.”

Cody’s expression tightens.

Cody Rhodes:

“You’re giving him control?”

Nick Aldis:

“I’m giving him an opportunity. What he does with it is up to him.”

Cody stares for a moment, then nods slightly before walking out.

Street Fight

R-Truth vs The Miz

No rules, no count-outs—anything goes.

The match quickly spills to the outside as R-Truth brings the fight early, using kendo sticks and throwing The Miz into the barricade. Miz fights back, launching Truth into the steel steps and grabbing a chair to take control.

Back in the ring, chaos continues. Miz sets up for a Skull Crushing Finale onto a chair—but Truth escapes at the last second.

R-Truth fires back with quick strikes, hits a jumping clothesline, and follows up with a Lie Detector.

1… 2… 3!

R-Truth pinfalls The Miz for the win.

R-Truth celebrates, hyping up the crowd, while The Miz rolls out of the ring frustrated

Carmelo Hayes approaches Ilja Dragunov, who has the United States Championship over his shoulder.

Ilja Dragunov:

“Carmelo… you have my respect. You stood with me against Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa. You fought like a warrior. Tell me… how can I repay you?”

Carmelo smirks slightly.

Carmelo Hayes:

“Oh, I’m gonna keep it real simple…”

He looks directly at the United States Championship.

Carmelo Hayes:

“I want that. And I want it tonight.”

Ilja doesn’t respond straight away. He studies Carmelo, intense.

Ilja Dragunov:

“You do not ask for a favour… you ask for war.”

Pause.

Ilja Dragunov (firm):

“I accept.”

They step closer, face-to-face, tension rising.

Carmelo Hayes (quiet confidence):

“Then let’s see if you can keep up.”

They stare each other down as the moment hangs.

Drew McIntyre is walking through the arena when he’s stopped by Cathy Kelley.

Cathy Kelley:

“Drew, earlier tonight, it was announced that if you apologise to everyone you’ve hurt… you’ll get a shot at the Undisputed WWE Championship. The question is—will you do it?”

Drew pauses… then starts to laugh.

Drew McIntyre:

“An apology?”

He shakes his head, smirking.

Drew McIntyre:

“You’ll just have to stay tuned… won’t you?”

Drew stares for a second longer, then walks off smiling as Cathy watches on

Rusev appears on screen alongside Lana.

Rusev:

“Finn Bálor thinks this is over… that he moved on from me.”

Rusev shakes his head.

Rusev:

“Wrong mindset.”

He leans closer to the camera, more intense.

Rusev:

“You’re not winning the Royal Rumble. You’re not headlining WrestleMania. Not in 2026… not ever… not while I decide otherwise.”

Pause.

Rusev (cold):

“This isn’t finished. I decide when it’s finished.”

Rusev and Lana smirk before laughing as the screen fades.

Nick Aldis’ Office

Nick Aldis is sitting in his office with Trick Williams.

Nick Aldis:

“I see your NXT contract is up soon. What are your plans next?”

Trick Williams smiles, relaxed but confident.

Trick Williams:

“I go where the best deal is. Could be Raw… could be SmackDown… could be anywhere. TNA, AEW—doesn’t matter.”

“I’m the hottest free agent in the world right now. I’m just listening.”

Suddenly the door swings open.

Cody Rhodes walks in, serious and focused.

Cody Rhodes:

“Drew’s here. I want to know—has he apologised yet?”

Trick Williams looks annoyed at the interruption.

Trick Williams:

“Who do you think you are, interrupting Trick Williams’ business?”

He steps closer to Cody.

Trick Williams:

“You better hope I don’t end up on SmackDown… because I’d take that championship off you just for the disrespect.”

Stare down.

Trick shakes his head, then walks out.

Nick Aldis exhales, turning to Cody.

Nick Aldis:

“Your situation will be resolved tonight. Now, please leave my office.”

Cody stares at Aldis, clearly frustrated, then slowly exits.

Solo Sikoa appears on screen, calm but intense.

Solo Sikoa:

“Bo Dallas says I’m recruiting outcasts for MFT?”

He shakes his head.

Solo Sikoa:

“Wrong.”

“MFT is not a group of outsiders… it’s blood. Family. Loyalty.”

His tone sharpens.

Solo Sikoa:

“And the so-called ‘Wyatt Sicks’… they’re nothing like us. Just lost souls being manipulated.”

“Bo Dallas didn’t build them… he brainwashed them.”

Solo leans in closer.

Solo Sikoa:

“You got lucky last time you faced MFT.”

“But next time… it won’t be luck that decides it.”

“I’ve got the whole world in my hands now.”

Solo smirks, then lets out a mocking laugh, echoing the eerie tone of Bray Wyatt before the screen fades.

United States Championship Match

Ilja Dragunov (c) vs Carmelo Hayes

The match is hard-hitting from the start—Ilja brings brutal strikes and relentless pressure, while Melo counters with speed, agility, and sharp counters.

Ilja nearly retains after a devastating powerbomb, but Carmelo kicks out at the last second, shocking the crowd.

Melo begins to shift momentum, landing a series of fast strikes and a springboard attack that finally slows Ilja down.

Ilja fights back with intensity, but Carmelo catches him mid-charge and hits his finisher.

1… 2… 3!

Carmelo Hayes wins and becomes the new United States Champion.

After the match, both men are exhausted. Ilja Dragunov slowly gets back to his feet and offers a handshake.

Carmelo hesitates… then accepts.

They shake hands in the centre of the ring as respect is shown between them.

Melo then raises the United States Championship and celebrates his victory as Ilja exits the ring to a respectful ovation.

Commercial Break

Carmelo Hayes is with Cathy Kelley, still recovering from his title win.

Cathy Kelley:

“Carmelo, you just became the new United States Champion. How does it feel?”

Carmelo starts to answer—

He is suddenly BLINDSIDED from behind.

Kit Wilson attacks Carmelo Hayes!

Kit stomps on Carmelo and grabs the United States Championship from nearby.

“This is what I’m coming for.”

He holds the title up for a moment… then looks at Carmelo and simply drops it onto him.

Cathy Kelley backs away, clearly nervous, as Kit leans down and stares at Carmelo.

Kit then walks off without saying another word.

Carmelo is left down as Cathy checks on him, shaken.

Drew McIntyre is in the ring, looking serious.

Nick Aldis and the referee Drew previously attacked are also in the ring.

Nick Aldis:

“Drew, things between you and Cody Rhodes have gotten out of hand. You were given an opportunity tonight to fix that.”

“If you deliver on what you promised… you will receive an Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes.”

“And you will choose the stipulation.”

Drew nods slowly.

Drew McIntyre:

“You’re right, Nick… it has gotten out of hand.”

“I want to say this clearly… I do feel bad for my actions.”

He turns to the referee.

Drew McIntyre:

“I’m sorry for what I did to you. I hope I didn’t cause you any lasting harm.”

Drew extends his hand.

The referee hesitates… then shakes it.

Nick Aldis nods, satisfied.

Nick Aldis:

“Drew McIntyre… you can be the man people want you to be when you choose to be.”

“You’ve got your match. Just name the time and place. And remember—stipulation is yours.”

Drew smiles slightly.

Drew McIntyre:

“One more thing.”

He looks at the referee.

Drew McIntyre:

“If you ever cost me another opportunity at becoming Undisputed WWE Champion… I will end your career.”

The referee looks shaken.

Suddenly—

Cody Rhodes’s music hits!

Cody storms to the ring and steps face-to-face with Drew.

Drew McIntyre (smirking):

“Good to see you, Cody. The New Era is coming.”

They stare each other down.

Drew McIntyre:

“I want this in Germany. I want a cage match.”

“When I’m done with you… your father will be disappointed in you.”

“You’ll wish you stayed as Stardust.”

Cody snaps—he hits a Cody Cutter out of nowhere!

Drew rolls out of the ring.

Nick Aldis looks stunned as Cody stands tall, fired up.

Bron Breakker:

“Guys, I’ll catch up with you later.”

The Vision leaves the ring.

CM Punk enters the ring.

Bron Breakker:

“Punk, you’re underestimating me when you say people will be asking what happens to me in five years.

Seth Freakin’ Rollins and Paul Heyman handpicked me to become the star of The Vision.

I stepped up, and then I did what was necessary to take The Vision forward.

I threw Seth Freakin’ Rollins out of the very group he created.

The plan was always to come after the World Heavyweight Championship, but we never expected to move that plan forward for another two years.

We decided the time was now.

We’re ahead of schedule.

And I’m progressing quicker than anybody expected.”

CM Punk:

“I don’t doubt you’ve progressed since joining The Vision. But this match isn’t going to be as easy as you think, Bron.

I was away from this company for ten years.

It took me two years to win this championship.

At SummerSlam, I beat Gunther to become World Heavyweight Champion.

That was one of the greatest feelings of my life.

Then Seth Rollins cashed in Money in the Bank, and I lost my title.

That feeling was horrible.

My goal was to get this championship back.

And I did.

So understand something, Bron…

I am not prepared to let this title go for anybody.”

Punk and Bron Breakker stare each other down.

CM Punk slowly exits the ring.

Bron Breakker laughs.

Obi Femi, you did a special job destroying John Cena at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

My favourite moment of 2025.

In 2025, I wanted to make me and Carmelo Hayes the best tag team WWE has ever produced.

Carmelo, you disrespected me and rejected my offer.

Instead, you decided to go solo and win the United States Championship.

I would’ve made you a legend in this business with my knowledge.”

Trick Williams walks to the ring with swagger.

Trick Williams:

“I’m here to announce some big news.

I’ve signed with SmackDown.

I am the biggest acquisition SmackDown has made in its history.

I had a lot of offers.

Shawn Michaels begged me to stay in NXT, but I already achieved everything there.

TNA begged me to join.

AEW wanted me, but I’m not a washed-up has-been like LA Knight, so I wasn’t going there.

SmackDown paid top dollar to sign me.

I will be Undisputed Champion within two years.

And I won’t be out here crying to the WWE Universe about my failures like LA Knight.

That’s not what Trick Williams is about.”

LA Knight:

“That’s enough! You’ve done nothing on this roster and you think you’re some big shot.

Looks like it’s your first night here, so I’ll let you off… but next time will be a different story.

“Randy, drop this fantasy that you’re going to be World Champion again. Nick Aldis paid top dollar to bring Trick Willy to SmackDown. He’s going to make sure his investment pays off. He’s not going to risk his money by giving someone like Randy Orton an opportunity. Maybe you should just go to All Elite Wrestling, where all of WWE’s has-beens go!”

Randy Orton:

“You remind me of myself when I was younger—stupid and not knowing any better. Luckily, I grew up and learned respect in this business. I hope you do the same. It looks like WWE NXT or TNA Wrestlingnever taught you any manners. I’d be happy to teach you some respect right here in this ring!”

Trick Williams laughs.

Trick Williams:

“I’m already better than you! I’m earning a bigger paycheck than you, and I’m going to stop you from breaking John Cena’s record.

I was also shocked watching my friend Cody Rhodes lose the WWE Undisputed Championship. Cody… I feel for you.

But I know you’ll bounce back. Win the Royal Rumble, and I’ll see you at WrestleMania. That’s a long road, though… and there are a lot of obstacles between now and then.

Santos Escobar’s music hits.

Santos Escobar walks to the ring.

CM Punk looks confused.

Santos Escobar: I’m not here for nostalgia. I’m not here for anyone else’s story. I’m here for my opportunity. And I believe I deserve a shot at your World Heavyweight Championship.

CM Punk smirks.

CM Punk: You know what’s funny? You only started showing up like this after Liv Morgan told you to stop playing video games.

I remember when Rey Mysterio called you the future of this business. I remember when you helped LA Knight beat Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship.

That was impressive.

Now look at you… talking big because someone told you to.

Santos steps forward, serious.

Santos Escobar: This isn’t about the past. This isn’t about Judgment Day. This is about me. So I’ll ask you once more—next week, World Heavyweight Championship. You in?

Drew McIntyre:

“Tonight, a new era begins!

I was fired in 2014.

People knew what I was capable of, but they never wanted this new era back then.

I was The Chosen One.

I went around the world to prove WWE wrong for firing me.

And guess what? I proved everyone wrong!

They begged me to come back.

I became WWE NXT Champion.

I dominated NXT, and they had no choice but to bring me back to the main roster.

I won the Royal Rumble and headlined WrestleMania when there were no fans.

I won the world title, but celebrating without fans sucked.

After that, The Bloodline, CM Punk, Finn Bálor, Cody Rhodes, and even the referees tried to screw me over.

Because they don’t want Drew McIntyre to be the star of the show.

This new era is happening whether you like it or not.

My first act as WWE Undisputed Champion is that I am not giving Cody Rhodes a rematch.

And I’m making sure Cody Rhodes never becomes champion again!”

I am entering the Royal Rumble, and I am going to win.

And at WrestleMania, I will stop the new era.

But first, let’s talk about the man who helped Drew McIntyre win the title.

Jacob Fatu.

Your anger got the better of you.

You attacked Drew McIntyre.

Your attack caused Drew to fall through the cage and win the match.

I know you are the most dangerous member of the Fatu family I have ever faced in my career.

Michael Cole is backstage with Cody Rhodes.

Michael Cole: “Cody, Jacob Fatu has challenged you to a match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. How do you feel about this?”

Cody Rhodes stays silent for a few seconds.

Cody Rhodes: “I want my revenge. Jacob Fatu is the reason I’m no longer the WWE Undisputed Champion!”

Suddenly, Jacob Fatu storms into the room.

Cody Rhodes: “Michael… please leave the room. I want to speak to Jacob in private.”

Michael Cole nervously leaves the room.

Jacob Fatu: “My beef wasn’t with you. It was with Drew McIntyre! Unfortunately, the cage broke when I threw him through it. A freak accident. I’m not the reason you lost your championship.

But if you got a problem with the Samoan Werewolf… I’m happy to solve it in the ring!”

Cody Rhodes: “Jacob, you’ve got some anger issues. That’s probably why you’ve been in jail before. If you don’t control yourself soon, I’m confident you’ll end up there again.”

Jacob Fatu: “I’m the Samoan Werewolf. I handle my consequences. I can handle jail… not like Cody Rhodes!”

Cody Rhodes: “Not a very smart thing to say. Think about your kids. I’d never do that to my family.”

Jacob Fatu: “Don’t you dare mention my family!”

Jacob Fatu explodes with rage and crushes Cody Rhodes through a table with a massive Samoan Drop!

*Jacob Fatu stands over Cody Rhodes, furious, as officials rush into the room. *

SmackDown returns from commercial break.

A graphic suddenly appears on the screen.

The crowd erupts inside the arena.

Joe Tessitore: “Wait a minute… Roman Reigns is officially entering the Royal Rumble Match?!”

Wade Barrett: “This changes everything! The Tribal Chief is back in the hunt for championship gold!”

A video package airs showing Roman Reigns’ most dominant moments, including WrestleMania victories, title defences, and Bloodline highlights.

The final shot shows Roman Reigns staring directly into the camera.

Roman Reigns: “The Royal Rumble belongs to me. Acknowledge your Tribal Chief.”

The screen fades to black as the crowd loudly chants:

“ROMAN! ROMAN! ROMAN!

Solo Sikoa stands backstage alongside Hikuleo, Tama Tonga, Jeff Cobb, and Tonga Loa.

Solo Sikoa: “Tonight, we defend our WWE Tag Team Championships against the Wyatt Sicks.

Bo… I still got your lantern. And you ain’t getting it back tonight either.

And at the Royal Rumble, I plan on winning my first Royal Rumble Match… and taking the world title back to my family!”

Solo Sikoa laughs as the rest of the group stand behind him silently.

Nick Aldis is in his office when AJ Styles walks in.

Nick Aldis: “AJ, you’re an old friend… do you really want to put your career on the line against Oba Femi? This could end dangerously, and I don’t want you getting hurt.”

AJ Styles: “I want justice for what Oba Femi did to John Cena. I’m willing to put my career up for grabs. If I lose, at least I go out being a hero.”

Nick Aldis shakes his head.

Shinsuke Nakamura walks into the office.

Shinsuke Nakamura: “You’re a dumbass, AJ!”

AJ Styles: “What?”

Shinsuke Nakamura: “AJ Styles is a dumbass for putting his career on the line against Oba Femi. Career suicide!”

AJ Styles: “No one gets away with calling me a dumbass. Me and you in the ring tomorrow night at Saturday Night’s Main Event!”

Shinsuke Nakamura: “Be honoured to kick your ass!”

AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura stare each other down as tensions rise.

Nick Aldis looks frustrated, trying to calm the situation.

Oba Femi looms as the unseen threat hanging over AJ Styles’ decision as the segment ends

Drew McIntyre stands in the ring, smiling while holding the WWE Undisputed Championship.

Drew McIntyre: “Jacob… this wasn’t a freak accident me winning the WWE Undisputed Championship.

The New Era was meant to happen.

Cody, I will make sure you don’t win the Royal Rumble. You’d be killing this company if you headline another WrestleMania.

Tomorrow night… Fatal Four-Way Number One Contender Match for my WWE Undisputed Championship.”

Drew paces around the ring, looking confident.

Drew McIntyre: “Let’s talk about who’s in the match.

Trick Williams… I like your swagger and arrogance. You remind me of a young Drew McIntyre. But you’re not winning my title.

Finn Bálor… I’ve already beaten him.

Randy Orton… that’s been done.

The man trying to break John Cena’s record… which will never happen.

And LA Knight… the man I hate the most. The man who was once my friend… and turned on me.”

Drew McIntyre drops the microphone.

He stares into the camera, intense and angry, holding the WWE Undisputed Championship high as SmackDown cuts away.

Finn Bálor is walking backstage when LA Knight steps into his path.

LA Knight: “Have I upset you?”

Finn Bálor: “I’m not interested in your bullshit. And don’t get involved in me and Trick Williams’ match tonight!”

Finn Bálor brushes past him and walks off, visibly agitated.

LA Knight stands there, shocked, watching him leave.

Trick Williams vs Finn Bálor

The match is fast-paced and competitive, with Finn Bálor targeting Trick Williams’ leg to slow him down while Trick relies on explosive power and athleticism to stay in control.

Finn Bálor attempts to close the match with a Coup de Grâce, but Trick Williams rolls out of the way and counters with a sudden Trick Shot knee strike.

Trick Williams covers Finn Bálor.

1… 2… 3!

Winner: Trick Williams

Trick Williams celebrates briefly, but the moment doesn’t last long.

LA Knight storms down to the ring and levels Trick Williams with a BFT!

Before LA Knight can recover, Randy Orton appears out of nowhere and hits an RKO on LA Knight!

Orton slowly rises to his feet, staring down at both men.

He stands tall in the center of the ring as SmackDown goes off the air.
