The Bloodline & The New Day Segment 

Roman Reigns: Last week, your tribal chief wasn’t at SmackDown, because when you smash somebody like Brock Lesnar, you gotta celebrate. So I took a vacation. And I heard y’all grumbling, complaining, oh, where’s the head of the table, my tribal chief? And, don’t worry, I’m here now. So tiny no name town, Acknowledge Me! And I gotta tell y’all, I had a great week, I really did. I was on a private island. I was running around naked, my wife was loving it, it was great.

But for my understanding, not everybody had a good week, in fact it was a bad week for a lot of you, because The Tribal Chief wasn’t here. And you want to know who else had a bad week? That dumb ass, Brock Lesnar. Because he went ahead and got himself fined a million dollars and suspended indefinitely. And you can go ahead and point the finger here, you can thank me because I’m the man responsible for it. You see, I got the stroke, I got the juice around here, I make it happen. Wise Man, what else happened last week?

Paul Heyman: It was really nothing, Kayla was bothering me about Brock Lesnar.

Roman Reigns: Wise Man, what else happened last week?

Paul Heyman: Oh, that. Well, The Usos had a match with The New Day. And the titles were not on the line because we would never have a title match on The Island Of Relevancy without The Tribal Chief’s permission.

Roman Reigns: Wise Man, who won and who lost that match?

Paul Heyman: My Tribal Chief, the match was won by The New Day.

Roman Reigns: You like The New Day, huh? I think they’re great, they’re entertaining, but they’re not better than The Bloodline. I’m having trouble understanding how my cousins, The Usos, the greatest tag team of this generation lost to The New Day. Which one of you got pinned in that match? You hear that? That’s because of you. You lost, huh? Tell us all how you’re gonna fix this problem?

Jimmy Uso: I got you, uce, I got you. Like last week, I said, I’m gonna kick that crown off his big ass head. I got you tonight. I’m gonna make him acknowledge who The Tribal Chief is. I’m gonna make him acknowledge who the real king is. I’m gonna make him acknowledge your Universal Champion, Roman Reigns.

Kofi Kingston: WWE Universe, lend me your ears so that you may hear the creed of King Woods.

King Woods: Sir Kofi, it looks as if they’ve forgotten my table. I thought that when you’re the king around here, you sat at the head of the table. And then matter of fact, you never stop talking about sitting at the head of the table. And then matter of fact, you got to make a shirt saying head of the table just in case, you, yourself lost enough brain cells to forget about it.

Kofi Kingston: Lame or perhaps maybe your table was forgotten on your Island Of Relevancy? Of course, it’s an island in which you can reside. It must be so sad and lonely upon this island?

King Woods: But at last, it’s time for us to get to the portion of our program that the people actually care about. My people, in my kingdom here in Evansville, Indiana. Yes, cheer for yourself, please. Now, Mr. Reigns, I’m here to propose a challenge, if you will. If your friend, who is locally known as Jimmy Uso, is able to defeat me tonight, then I will have no problem acknowledging you. But when, emphasis on when I defeat young James Uso, he will be made to do as he should be doing right now and he will have to bend the knee.

Jimmy Uso: Yeah, yeah, right. Ain’t nobody taking no orders from you two chumps. We ain’t bending the knee, what are you talking about?

Jey Uso: Let me see that. Hey, nobody bending no knee over here. The Bloodline bends the knee to nobody, no matter what day it is, twice over.

– Paul Heyman yells at Jey Uso for not giving Roman Reigns the microphone.

Roman Reigns: The Bloodline accepts.

Kofi Kingston: Then thy kings will be done. Tonight, James Uso, Jim Uso, Jiminity Uso shall indeed face our king in combat, tonight. Hail. King Woods!
