#1. Brock Lesnar destroyed The Bloodline to end WWE SmackDown

Roman Reigns looked to do much more damage to Paul Heyman on WWE SmackDown. He felt betrayed and asked for some steel chairs to end Heyman for good.

Just as Reigns was preparing to deliver that one final blow, Brock Lesnar came out on SmackDown. He wiped out The Usos and hit an F5 outside the ring before staring down the Universal Champion.

He entered the ring and leveled Reigns with an F5 but wasn’t quite done with him. The Beast Incarnate hit another F5 to The Head of the Table to close SmackDown on Friday Night.

SmackDown outdid itself by bringing Lesnar out on a night Heyman was fired by Roman Reigns. It looks like The Beast Incarnate is ready to take on the services of his advocate again. However, it’s unclear whether Heyman will rejoin Lesnar or betray him at Day 1 to help out The Tribal Chief and win his trust again.

The match between the two SmackDown giants for Day 1 got much more exciting with a single segment. Full marks to the WWE creative team for this one.
