Roman Reigns & The Usos Segment
Roman Reigns: I appreciate y’all coming, being here with me. You know exactly where I come from, and you understand exactly where I stand here today.
Jey Uso: YEET!
Roman Reigns: I know the past is the past, and that’s where I’m going to leave it, because we’re blood, and you’re the only ones that I can trust, and I need your thoughts. I don’t understand where Jacob is coming from. I said it on ESPN, to the entire roster, our family included, everyone had two years to take advantage of me taking a backseat. And what he do? He pushed it, he procrastinated it, and then I climbed the mountain, I beat CM Punk, and now he’s trying to take that from me. Please, help me understand this.
Jimmy Uso: Hey, Big Uce, I don’t disagree with what you’re saying, but I do agree with Jacob. He’s a man. I mean, come on, he wants to upgrade his household, I get it, I really do, but it shouldn’t come at the cost of you.
Roman Reigns: At my expense.
Jimmy Uso: Yeah, man, he’s a different breed.
Jey Uso: No, man, he’s dangerous, uce.
Jimmy Uso: He’s dangerous, you’re right, uce. At SmackDown, we just watched him drop The MFT’s one by one by one by one.
Jey Uso: Roman, unpredictable, uce. Unhinged, we left him out there for a reason. If he beats you, uce, he takes it all. Ula Fala, The Family Name, he’s the shot caller now, uce.
Jimmy Uso: He ain’t got to be all that, uce.
Jey Uso: What do you mean? This is it, uce. It can’t be all about respect here, there has to be consequences, uce. You’re the Tribal Chief.
Roman Reigns: Consequences.
Jey Uso: Consequences.
Roman Reigns: Consequences. We ain’t doing charity. You’re right. Thank you, I’m gonna chew on that, I’m gonna make it my own, and then I’m gonna go address this later tonight. Appreciate y’all.
Jimmy Uso: It’s all love.
Jey Uso: Man, respect, too. Man, family first, uce.
Roman Reigns: The First Family.
Seth Rollins & The Vision Segment
Seth Rollins: Laredo, Texas. Welcome to Monday Night Rollins. I am a visionary, I am a revolutionary, I am Seth Freakin’ Rollins. And I got a lot of ground to cover tonight, so let’s get to it. There is a reason I lost to GUNTHER at WrestleMania, and it is not because GUNTHER was better than me on that night, no, no, no. There is a reason Roman Reigns is walking around with my World Heavyweight Championship, and it’s not because Roman Reigns pinned my shoulders to this mat. The reasons for those things are one and a same, and they have a name, and that name is Bron Breakker. Breakker, I know you’re sitting back there, you got nine staples in the back of your dome, you’re welcome for that, but we got business to attend to, we got a score to settle. So, get your little pee brain out, and let’s do the damn thing.
– Bron Breakker marches down to the ring with Paul Heyman.
Seth Rollins: I gave you everything. I gave you the world, I handed it to you on a silver platter, and you repaid me by taking everything away from me. You were the reason I had to forfeit the World Heavyweight Championship, you were the reason I didn’t get to main event WrestleMania this year, and you were the reason that I didn’t get my hand raised this year at WrestleMania. And I got to ask you, Bron, for what? What did you get out of it? How did it benefit you in anyway?
Bron Breakker: You gave me everything? What did you give me, by the way? What did you give Reed and I? Because the that way I see it, every single week, we were like your errand boys. We got to come out here, and fight all your battles for you, and put out all of your fires that you started all on your own. Because look around, Seth, you’ve got nothing, you got no one, you got no friends, you are nothing. You needed us, you needed us to fight all your battles for you, and what, you were giving me all this great wisdom and all this guidance, while every single week, you come out here and kickoff the show, and Reed and I would have to stand there in the back and listen to you regurgitate the same crap every single week. I am a revolutionary, I am a visionary, I am Seth Freakin’ Rollins. Let me make something perfectly clear to you, I never needed you and your vision, the only reason that we’re standing here today it’s because I needed him.
Seth Rollins: You needed him? That dried up sack of meat, you needed that guy? You just proved everything I thought about you, right. Let me take you on a little ride down memory lane. A couple years ago, I’m World Heavyweight Champion, I want to fight the best in the world, I called up “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels. I said, Shawn Michaels, I want to go down to NXT, I want to fight your best, who’s your best? Shawn says, Bron Breakker, I said, hell yeah, let’s do the damn thing. Last year, this sack of meat, he comes to me, he says, Seth, what do you think about taking Bron Breakker under your wing? I said, hell yeah, that kid with a year under his belt, in my tutelage, he will be undoubtedly the next main event, money drawing star in this industry. Because look at you, Breakker, look at you, you’ve got it all. And I’ve been here for 14 years, I have seen athletes from every form of discipline come in here, they’re big, they’re strong, they’re fast, but you are unique.
You are the biggest, the strongest, the fastest, the most versatile performer I have ever seen in the 14 years that I’ve been with this company. You have everything, everything to be the next big star in this industry, everything except the most important thing. I know better than anybody what it means to be a 28-year-old, young cat, full of piss and vinegar, coming into this company, thinking the business owes you something, not wanting to wait for nobody. I know better than anybody what it means to bet on yourself, to take chances, to take make decisions, hard decisions that people aren’t going to be happy with. I know that, but the difference between you and me, is that you try, I succeed. You try, I succeed, and do you know why? Let me just paint a few pictures of you. Every time I bet on myself, it ended with a main event or a World Championship. You bet on yourself, what did it get you, it got you Austin Theory and Logan Paul. It got you steak dinners, private jets, and happy endings from Paul Heyman. You try, I succeed, because Breakker, let me say this plainly, so even your pee brain could understand it, you are not ready.
Bron Breakker: I’m not ready, that’s the narrative you want to go with? I hate to break it to you, superstar, but before all this was a thing, I was well on my way to becoming a main eventer with or without you. I didn’t need you or your help or anything. And you want to blame me for you losing the World Heavyweight Championship? That’s fine, the truth is, your body can’t handle it, your mind is too brittle, and your shoulder can’t handle the weight of a scrap on it anymore. And yeah, I took my shot for the World Heavyweight Championship, and I came up a little short, but you know what? I can go to sleep, and lay my head on my pillow at night, a lot better knowing that I lost to the best in the world, instead of somebody that self-proclaims it. And I believe you, Seth, I believe everything that you say that you are. You’ve got all the accolades, all the championships, you’ve won everything there is to win here. You are a first ballot WWE Hall Of Famer, there’s no question. You are the very best professional wrestler in the entire world at being number two.
Seth Rollins: You know, that was pretty good, Baby Steiner. You come up with that one on own or you called Big Poppa Pump for your hookup? Breakker, you think you’re ready. Backlash is two weeks away, son. I am going to give you the opportunity to prove that you’re ready. But let me you in on a little secret that I think everybody except you knows. Steiner, you’re not even number two in your own family.

Becky Lynch & Iyo Sky Segment
Becky Lynch: The Man and the New Women’s Intercontinental Champion has come around to Laredo, Texas. And we just entered into a new era of The Manoshpere, because a lot of history was made at WrestleMania 42. I finally got rid, once and for all, of loser AJ Lee and ended her horrible title reign. And I put gold around someone’s waist that truly deserves it, me. I became the first WWE Superstar in history to win four different titles at WrestleMania. I became the first ever 3X Women’s Intercontinental Champion. I have now won more WrestleMania matches in history than any other woman. Undertaker, I’m coming for your record next. And I have proved it, once and for all, why I am the greatest female wrestler of all-time. And it’s not just me saying it, other people say it, everybody says it, Sports Illustrated says it, The Bleacher Report says it. And all of that is wonderful, all of that is great, but what happened after the match was even more important.
I looked out in front of a sea of over 50,000 people, and I saw my baby girl sitting in the front row, and I was able to take her out, and I walked with her up the ramp, and I realized, I needed to show her what a real champion is. And it’s not about the five-star hotels, the private jets, and the fancy tour busses, even though I indulge in all of those. It’s not about going to the biggest cities, and performing in front of the best crowds, it’s about showing up in run-down towns like Laredo, and showing them, for commonfolk, even like much of you. And I know what you need, I know what you want. I know what you want, you want me to be a fighting champion. You want me to defend this title. And not just against some nostalgia act or some underdogs, you want me to fight the best of the best, you want new, you want shiny, you want exciting. And so, I stand before you as The Man of the people, and I issue an open challenge to whoever wants to come out here, have me look in their eyes and say, Welcome to The Big Time. Now, let’s throw some hands, who’s it going to be?
– Iyo Sky walks down to the ring.
Iyo Sky: I accept.
Becky Lynch: You accept what? I said, I wanted to fight the best of the best, I wanted new, I wanted shiny, I wanted exciting, you are none of those things. See, they’re booing you, Iyo. No, okay, sorry, sorry, I understand now. I understand, okay, you accept on behalf of Rhea Ripley, okay, the part of the tag team that actually has gold. Now, what’s going to happened? Is Rhea gonna come down here? It’s gonna be Mami versus The Man? I’ll be Becky Two Belts, again, because I wanted to fight Shawn Michaels, not Marty Jannetty. And clearly, you’ve been holding her back.
Iyo slaps Becky in the face. Iyo transitions into a ground and pound attack. Iyo kicks Becky out of the ring. Adam Pearce appears on the stage.
Adam Pearce: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Becky, Becky, Becky, where you going? Hold on, you issued an open challenge for the Intercontinental Championship, Iyo Sky answered the open challenge for the Intercontinental Championship. And in case you forgot, we’re in Laredo tonight, so we’re going to do a title match, because it is official, so get me a referee out here, because what the hell, we’re gonna do it, right now.

Jimmy says that The OTC will make his decision when The OTC is ready to make his decision. LA Knight joins the conversation. He’s not here to talk down The Usos. He reminds Jey Uso that he won the World Heavyweight Championship on his own. Big Jim has the potential to become a World Heavyweight Champion, but not under Roman Reigns.

With The Bloodline, they ran roughshod over everybody, but that more eventually corrupts, and when it does, it becomes his business. YEAH!

But he did say something that was right. He said there is no opportunity around here, because all the big champions are locked in with their contenders, and the US Champion doesn’t want to do open challenges anymore, so I took it upon to myself to create a solution to our problem. Ladies and gentlemen, as from today, The Oba Femi Open Challenge will commence. So, to any men back there who wants to prove himself, step up. If you want to see how you fare at the top of the mountain, step up, but I will not take too kindly to your decision. Because when you come down here, I’ll be merciless, unforgiving, and relentless.

Roman Reigns & Jacob Fatu Segment
Roman Reigns: You see, it’s been a while since I’ve been here in Texas. But if you can’t tell from home, they love their Tribal Chief, baby. You see, they made this title in spite of me. They made this title to try to take away from my shine, but it never worked. You see, there’s an old saying, and it’s very true, the title don’t make the man, the man makes the title.

Roman Reigns: Fatu, right on cue. Perfect timing, I just was getting to you. I gave you a week, gave you time to think, I’m hoping you made the right choice, Jacob. I’m hoping you made the choice to unite our family and not divide it.
Jacob Fatu: You said, you gave me a week. I didn’t need a week, I didn’t need a day, hell, I didn’t even need an hour to think about it. I know exactly what I wanted when I came out here last Monday. I didn’t stutter, I didn’t hesitate when I told you, that I didn’t want that title, but I need that title. What? What you must be stuck in your WWE Main Event Bubble, huh? What you must be stuck in Tribal Chief Land? You ain’t grind like me, Roman. See, I’m uncut with it. I’m Raw with it. 12 years of hard work. 12 years of grinding. 12 years of suffering, not knowing what the next meal would be. So, while y’all was up here, running The Bloodline, I was broke, foaming out the mouth, grinding on the frontline, trying to figure out if I was going to be here or not. But it ain’t how you start, it’s how you finish, and it got me standing right here in front of your ass. So, before WWE, you didn’t call me, Jimmy didn’t call me, Jey didn’t call me, but you know who did call me? Solo called me. Solo gave me a chance. Solo is the one that put me on since I got here.
Roman Reigns: Solo? Either you’re completely confused or you’re dumber than I think. Solo couldn’t get a cup of coffee delivered to the building if he wanted to. Take a look around, who you think runs this place? They ain’t lying to you, The OTC runs this place. And yeah, I’ve been a little distracted, things get a little hectic around here, but I never forgot about you, and I’m the one that signed off on your ass. But you’re over here sounding a little confused, sounding like a fool to me. You don’t deserve it, you haven’t earned it. Me allowing you to compete against me, that’s nepotism, I can’t do that.
Fatu attacks Roman with The Tongan Death Grip. Roman clocks Fatu with the microphone, but Fatu shrugs it off. Fatu reapplies The Tongan Death Grip.
Jacob Fatu: It’s going to take everything from you.
Fatu picks up the World Heavyweight Championship and drops it on top of Reigns. Fatu walks out of the ring.
Roman Reigns: Jacob. Jacob! You want me at Backlash? I’ll see you at Backlash.
Fatu says that he’ll see Roman’s punk ass on Raw next week as the show goes off the air.
