Roman Reigns demanded his cousins to “Fix the problem” before they came out for Jimmy Uso’s match on WWE SmackDown. King Woods, accompanied by Sir Kingston, was ready to take on the heel in the main event of SmackDown.

Jimmy seized control of the match early and kept Woods on the back foot. He kept the pressure on The King of the Ring and hit a running knee to the face. Woods stayed resilient and tried to make a comeback into the match. He delivered a few moves before hitting a top-rope leg drop for a near fall. Jimmy fired back and hit a Samoan Drop to nearly pick up the win.

Kingston helped his partner stay in the game by distracting the referee. Soon after, Woods rolled up Jimmy to pick up the win. After the match, Uso teased kneeling before Woods. Reigns came out of nowhere to pummel Woods and take Kingston out.

The match was good and the outcome will help WWE build towards two big storylines for Survivor Series. Reigns will most likely take on Big E at the pay-per-view, and the targeted attack will help build that storyline.

Meanwhile, King Woods could become the leader of Team SmackDown following his recent string of victories.
