Roman Reigns & Jimmy Uso Segment
Jimmy Uso: Hey, I’ve missed y’all, too. And for the past six months, I’ve been waiting to say this. Welcome to Friday Night SmackDown. For six months, your boy has been on the shelf. And I was put on the damn shelf by little brother, Solo Sikoa. And when I was sitting at home, I was thinking, this fool didn’t have the balls to do it, face to face, this fool jumped me from behind. By your crew, by your Bloodline, by your brothers. So, tonight, here in Greenville, South Carolina, this, ladies and gentlemen, is all about big brother versus little brother. And I plan on doing what I’ve been doing my whole. Hey, Solo, I plan on kicking your ass.
Roman Reigns: Your OTC usually likes to run it systematically out here, but tonight, we’re going to change things up a little bit. Greenville, South Carolina. Join Me and acknowledge him. Hey, Greenville, listen, we don’t do this often, I need you all to turn it up. Join me, and acknowledge, Big Jim. Alright, moving on. I get it, I understand where you’re coming from. I’ll tell you, wait a minute. But you have to understand, I’m not an older brother, so I don’t understand this revenge. And you have to understand that I’m not a wise man, I’m not, yet. But I don’t come up with the creative, manipulative plans, that’s not me, no. I’m a Tribal Chief. And that means, I take what’s mine. And for four years, now, that’s exactly what we’ve done, we took what was ours. I wasn’t messing around, I called my shots, and I delivered. We had it all. We had the money, the power, and the respect. We ran around here, and everybody feared us. We had championships around our waist. We had it all. We had money coming out of the pockets. Jimmy, you were asking me about buying a new house, I said, buy them all, it doesn’t matter. I don’t like where we’re at, right now. I don’t like my position. I don’t like being out of control. It’s very simple, I told y’all, I’m the greatest of all-time, and I meant it. And when we step foot in these arenas, I want y’all to know, the goats are here. When we step foot in this ring, I want you to know, when we put these ones up, that we are the ones.
Jimmy Uso: Yeah, but we’re not, though. How? I stand here in the middle of this ring, and I see a chief with no tribe, right now. I see you with no Ula Fala around your neck. Listen, at Bad Blood, I came back because you needed me. You didn’t ask. You needed help. We need help. I know one person, one person that we can get some help from, uce.
Roman Reigns: No YEET!
Jimmy Uso: Uce, listen to me, you’ll forever be my Tribal Chief, man, alright? But I’m the only one in the family that still acknowledges you.

Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton, Naomi, Liv Morgan Segment
Nia Jax: As your Women’s World Champion, I have a very busy agenda. So, let me knock this off, one by one. I’m here, first off, to give credit to Bayley. Bayley, you put one hell of a fight last week. I even broke a sweat. You’re a very worthy contender. And just like every other worthy contender that’s faced me, you ended up on your back, realizing that nobody on this planet can beat me. Not you, not anyone in the locker room, and especially not my counterpart at Raw Liv Morgan. That little girl wants to face your Women’s Champion at Crown Jewel. Now, let me tell you what’s going to happen at Crown Jewel, I’m going to annihilate Liv Morgan, just like I annihilated Bayley and everyone else. And when I finish with that, and I become the first ever WWE Crown Jewel Champion, it’s Tiffy Time. That’s when you cash in on Liv Morgan.
Naomi: Nia, you and I both know, the only reason that championship is still sitting on your shoulders, is because that broke down Barbie of yours, helped you, again. You cannot win without your little sidekick. And as a matter of fact, she’s not even a good one, because I pinned her last week, right there in the middle of that ring, just like I pinned you. Oh, do you not remember that, Nia?
Nia Jax: Do you know what I do remember about that, Naomi? It’s that, it didn’t take one of you to pin me, it took two of you to pin me. Now, are you out here challenging me, one on one, so I can annihilate you or are you going to find a tag team partner, so that I can take revenge out on both of you.
Naomi: I’m going to say this to your face, right here. I don’t need nobody to help me beat you.
Nia Jax: You know what? I’m sick of your face.
Naomi: As a matter of fact, I’m going to beat you, right here and right now.
Nia Jax: Oh, really? Okay, well, Nick Aldis, if you can hear me, send out a referee, because I’m sick of Naomi, and I want to annihilate her, right now. And make sure it’s official.
Liv Morgan: Aww. I’m actually a little bit upset, right now. We came all the way over here just to make an example out of you, Nia. But it actually seems like you have your hands a little bit full, right now. So, what I think we’re going to do, we’re going to go down to ringside, and we’re going to watch along with everyone else, as you lose your match, tonight. Just like you’re going to lose to me at Crown Jewel
