Location: Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri, USA
Date: October 28, 2022
Welcome us to SmackDown before Michael Cole enters the ring. During the entrances, we see Bloodline’s attacks on Sheamus from last week, as well as Je Uso’s attack on Logan Paul. As Bloodline prepares for their match, Sami Zayn is the spokesperson. Roman Reigns is not seen there yet.
1. Match
tag team match
The Brawling Brutes (Butch and Ridge Holland) defeated Sami Zayn and Solo Sequoia (w/The Usos: Jimmy and Jay Uso) via pin from Butch to Zayn after a roll-in.
Match Time: 11:52
– The Usos kept distracting attention in the match.
– Sami Zayn had set a trap for Butch and was ready to jump, but Jay Uso kicked him out of the ring, causing a lot of discussion on Bloodline. As Zayn returned to the ring, he curled up.
Even after the match, the discussion of Bloodline continues, everyone is unhappy with Je Uso. At this inappropriate time, the tribal chief’s music plays. Roman Reigns enters the hall with Paul Heyman. “ST. Louis. Accept me”, the table ends, the audience cheers. Reigns wants to go straight to the problems of the bloodline. If you’re treated like a kid, you’re treated the same. He urges Zayn and Jay to talk to Uso about their problems so they can be resolved now. Zayn grabs a microphone and admits that there have been communication issues with Jay recently. He Likes Jay, but since Zayn is part of the bloodline, it looks like he has a problem with him. Heyman pats him on the shoulder when Zayn says he just wants to be with Jay and asks him to shake a hand But Jay says he can’t stand Zayn. He doesn’t want Zayn with his family anymore. He doesn’t belong and will never be “him.” No one in Bloodline likes Zayn Zain says he just wants peace like tribal chief says. Jay says he doesn’t care what tribal chief says. Reigns begins and turns to the audience shouting “You’re a mess”. Zayn tries to defend her, saying that Jay hasn’t been “the same” much lately. This word makes the whole bloodline out of character. Roman tells Jay to quickly find his “UC” or he will make Zayn a full member of the group. Then he would be called Sami Uso. Jay is still struggling to laugh, Jimmy laughs for a few seconds. A strange, unintentionally funny, but amusing segment. Paul Heyman says that Roman Reigns has now finished this segment and is promoting his match against Logan Paul in Saudi Arabia. Paul’s mention causes a loud boom.
Another mysterious video is shown. Valhalla is waiting.
During the next few moves, the New Day talks about the Usos and explains that they still have the longest title of any tag team.

Now it is the turn of Bray Wyatt, who has again entered the field from his doorstep to good reactions. Once in the ring, he is greeted with slogans of “Welcome Back” and is said to be full of adrenaline. Fans made him feel invincible. But he wants to show them something they’re very proud of: Bray Wyatt without the mask, the very best version of Bray Wyatt. He is proud to be here and has promised to show something great. He addresses his demons because he is a person who is not always in control. Sometimes he doesn’t feel anything, sometimes he is in “dark places”. But this is what makes him special. He is not afraid to do terrible things. The lights go off, a figure in a mask and top hat appears on the screen and says that he is just a shadow of himself and calls Wyatt a liar. Wyatt still wears a mask and can never hide from it. Before him, his uncle had given the name Howdy. Another QR code was also shown, with Uncle Howdy ending the version of SmackDown.
