Good evening Fight Fans, and welcome to our coverage for tonight's edition of WWE Smackdown on FOX!

- We open tonight's show with the Universal champion Roman Reigns accompanied to the ring by Paul Heyman, and Jey Uso. Roman gets on the mic and talks about how he kept his promise about beating Kevin Owens before turning his attention to Edge who should automatically come to Smackdown. Roman says Edge should beg at Roman's feet for him to make him relevant before asking where Edge is and how he's disrespecting him by making him wait. Roman becomes infuriated and yells at Edge through the camera before saying that he shouldn't play games him with or he'll end up like Kevin Owens who is gone now. Roman then demands that Edge give him his decision by the end of the night before leaving.
