Welcome to our WrestlingINC.com Live WWE SmackDown Viewing Party. Tonight's show comes from the Amway Center in Orlando, FL.

- Tonight's WWE SmackDown on FOX opens up with a video package on WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and his Clash of Champions win over Jey Uso.

- We're live from WWE ThunderDome at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida as Michael Cole welcomes us. He's joined at ringside by Corey Graves. Cole says we're celebrating one year of WWE's partnership with FOX.

- We go right to the ring and out comes WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns with Paul Heyman. Reigns raises the title in the air on the stage and the pyro goes off. They march to the ring as Greg Hamilton does the introductions. This will be the ceremony to officially crown Reigns as the Tribal Chief.

Reigns takes his time entering the ring, which has a red apron cover. He raises the title again and more pyro goes off. Heyman takes the mic and asks us to forgive him because he's a little bit nervous tonight. He's known Reigns and his entire family since the day Reigns was born, and he's always looked forward to his actual moment because everyone knew this was destined to happen. Heyman says we are all here tonight to officially declare Reigns the Tribal Chief. Not just the Tribal Chief of his own family or SmackDown, or WWE, but the Tribal Chief of the entire WWE Universe, which is why it's so necessary that Reigns is your undisputed Universal Heavyweight Champion. The crowd boos.

Heyman wants to set the stage appropriately, with respect. He names WWE Hall of Famers like Peter Maivia, Reigns' uncle Afa, and Reigns' father Sika... Reigns interrupts. He doesn't want Heyman to call him that. He doesn't want Heyman to call him the Tribal Chief because "he" wouldn't acknowledge him as that. His brother did, but he wouldn't. He's referring to Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso, and what happened at Clash of Champions. Reigns wants his cousin to come out here right now. The music hits and out comes Jey.

Jey is all business. He says he doesn't know Reigns. He says Reigns showed his true colors at Clash of Champions, and so did he. He says Reigns beat his ass but if it weren't for Jimmy throwing in the towel, the title would be his. Reigns stares him down in the middle of the ring. Reigns asks if Jey thinks he's proud of what he did. Reigns says Clash was the worst night of his career, the worst night of his career, professionally and personally. Those weren't his intentions going into the match, he wanted to help Jey and put him in the main event. Reigns goes on about wanting to help Jey, and says all Jey had to do was acknowledge him. All he had to do was say the words, acknowledge him as the Tribal Chief. Reigns says from the day he was born this has been his birthright, he wasn't handed this, he had to work his ass off and Jey has seen it the entire way. All Reigns wanted was to represent their family to the fullest, to share the main event with Jey, but all Jey did was disrespect him, and embarrass their family. He says Jey broke his heart. He calls Jey out for looking at the title and not him while he spills his guts. Is this all you want? Reigns asks Jey if he wants another shot at the title. Reigns says he's got it. Do you want it at Hell In a Cell? It's yours. Reigns says the match will have the highest stakes that any match has ever had in WWE history.

Reigns hugs Jey now. He tells Jey, while hugging him, that he wouldn't accept the challenge and this time there will be real consequences. Reigns drops the title and exits the ring with Heyman following. The music starts up as Reigns marches up the ramp while Jey watches. Jey takes the mic and says whatever the stakes are, Reigns is on. Cole says Jey has accepted the challenge. Graves wonders what the stakes are.

- Jey Uso is still in the ring while the music hits and out comes AJ Styles. AJ asks if this is all over? Did he miss it? He asks if it really matters who sits at the end of the table and has the most chicken bones. Not really. AJ says believe it or not, Jey matters to him. AJ doesn't want to see Jey take another beating like he did last Sunday. AJ tells Jey to find someone more qualified to go for the title. Let Reigns be the Tribal Chief, sacrifice a goat or something, and you can go on living. AJ goes on and says Jey can go on living as the runt he's always been because his brother is the better athlete. Jey ends up going after AJ, sending him to the floor and leaping off the announce table to knock him down. Jey gets hyped up as SmackDown goes to commercial.

- The announcers send us to highlights from the Triple Threat Ladder Match for the Intercontinental Title at WWE Clash of Champions. Sami Zayn is backstage with both title belts now. He knows you're expecting him to gloat over everything, but tonight is a mix of emotions and one of those is resentment, and anger. He goes on about how he's been treated over the title but he realized WWE management aren't the ones to blame, the fans are the real ones to blame for going along with the ride as frauds were given the title. Sami goes on and says he will do everything that AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy should've done, with the sham title. He's going to put their title belt in the trash of history after tonight's win over Hardy. Sami drops that belt into a trash can and we go back to commercial.

Bliss walks to the ring as Cole shows us how The Fiend's presence caused Bliss to snap on Lacey Evans last week. Owens says he's been paying attention to what's been happening on SmackDown and he has so many questions about what's been happening to Bliss. He brings up her shift in attitude and anger, and says it reminds him of what he sees in his nemesis on RAW, Aleister Black. Bliss says she doesn't know what Owens means. He says she's not the same woman he met 5 years ago at the Performance Center, who was always cheery and happy, making people laugh. She says people change, Owens should try it some time. Doesn't he want to change and be better? Owens says he's tried to change, he's tried to better himself and do things the right way but this isn't about him changing, it's about how she's changing. He needs to understand this darkness that is taking her over, because if he can understand that, maybe he can understand what's happening to Black.

Bliss says people fear what they don't understand. She asks Owens if he's ever been around "him" (The Fiend) as it's fearful and captivating at the same time. Your spine goes cold, your body goes numb when he touches you, it's like pins and needles, it's like he's looking right through you when he looks in your eyes, and you can't look away. Bliss asks Owens if he has any idea what that's like. Owens believes they're not talking about Aleister. He doesn't think he will get the needed answers from her because she's brainwashed. Bliss says yes, her brain has been washed. All the lies have been washed away and now she sees the truth. She's been cleansed by him. Owens says he's here, isn't he? She says he's everywhere and she can hear him now. Let him in! The lights start going down as Owens paces the ring. It's all black now. We hear the menacing sounds of The Fiend start up. The red lights come up now and The Fiend has the Mandible Claw on Owens.

She's in somewhat of a trance now, staring at him. The menacing sounds continue to go out over the arena. The Fiend approaches Bliss, still staring each other down. Bliss slowly gets up from her chair and the sounds stop. The Fiend takes her hand and the crowd pops. Bliss looks at the crowd and smiles as he holds her hand.

Carmella says the fans wanted her to do things their way, play by their rules. Look where that got her – absolutely nowhere. She says then she remembered that she is Carmella, she's better than all of you. But do you know what she is not? She's not your princess anymore.

- We go back to the bank and Sasha Banks is in the ring.
