You want The Fiend...

The Fiend signed the contract in his own blood. Is that legally binding?

This is essentially the equivalent of asking Stone Cold to a beer-drinking contest.

Again...why did Bryan ask for this match?!?!

Bryan and The Fiend are in the middle of the ring! Bryan takes the fight to him, but The Fiend locks in the Mandible Claw, knocking him out. A Sister Abigail connects and Wyatt tears off Bryan's shirt so that he may whip him with the strap.

Wyatt says the Fiend will sign the contract and Michael Cole got the heck out of dodge. Smart move, my dude. Smart move.

Wyatt says that Bryan never learned his lesson. He's a liar, and it's time to pay.

Mistake is the word of the day!!!

Wyatt's attorney is apparently the Buzzard...I love this.

Wyatt calls customer service and asks for "English or Ancient Sumerian."

Bray Wyatt can't make a fax machine work...same, bro. Same.

Firefly Fun House!!!

It's gonna be a strap match and...I'm sorry how are we gonna get The Fiend to sit and sign a contract?

So now comes the contract signing between Daniel Bryan and..The Fiend.

I don't smoke....I don't vape...but these "Don't smoke/vape" ads make me want to start out of pure spite.

Kofi's Trouble in Paradise is countered by a hook kick to the back of the head! Nasty!

Kofi just shot Morrison into the corner with a springboard hurricanrana and followed up with a Cave In!!

Morrison shakes off a roll-up for a knee to the jaw. Starship Pain misses as Kofi rolls away.

Take it ALL in! 🤩🤩🤩 #SmackDown @TheRealMorrison @mikethemiz pic.twitter.com/OuS3CfDrw6

Cole: "You explained last week what this parkour-style is."
It...it's been around long enough, I think, that we don't need an explanation.

Miz and Morrison have entered the Royal Rumble, folks. So that leaves four more competitors.

Sheamo cuts a promo on Chad Ga...sorry...."Shorty G" ahead of their clash at the Royal Rumble.

Have an idea of how the Men's Royal Rumble will win? Check out our 5 finishes for the match!

Next up is Kofi Kingston w/Big E vs John Morrison w/The Miz! This outta be fun.

"2 Superstars have won from the #1 spot." Hmm...

I don't think they should count the Greatest Royal Rumble for Royal Rumble stats. If the winner got nothing for it, it didn't matter.

I like the way this fan thinks..

got a crazy feeling kofi will eliminate brock lesnar from the royal rumble #WWE #SmackDown

"If ya boy is greasy, eliminating me can't be easy!" - @WWEBigE

It's a pretty good strategy, actually. 👍 #SmackDown #RoyalRumble @TrueKofi pic.twitter.com/YOsnumSvk5

Tonight, we're getting Kofi Kingston vs John Morrison. It's gonna be sweet.

Kofi is as confused as I am..good.

We cut back to...Big E getting oiled up by...a personal oil boy?

Elias & Braun Strowman defeat Cesaro & Shinsuke Nakamura via pinfall.

Elias manages to stop Nakamura from using a chair, sending him into the ring post. Strowman drives Cesaro into the mat with a powerslam, and Elias follows up with a top rope elbow drop!

Oops, Nakamura connected with a jumping knee and Cesaro tags in. Tag team offense earns Cesaro a near fall.

Strowman is just tossing Nakamura around like a bag of sugar. That freakish power will always be impressive.

Braun Strowman tags in and it's bull in a china shop time!

Nakamura ruins the party, knocking Strowman to the floor. Elias counters the Kinshasa with a jumping knee to the nose! And Strowman is back on the apron!

Back from the break and Cesaro is mule kicked by Elias. The Drifter is getting better and better.

We just got an XFL ad and man...I'm pretty excited for it.
