SmackDown kicked off with Roman Reigns and The Usos in the ring to talk about Reign's match at the Rumble. The Usos said Roman hates losing and he was still angry before Corbin, Ziggler and Roode came out.
Corbin challenged the three of them to a six-man tag match and they agreed before the two teams bickered a little and the Usos brought out a large amount of dog food that would come into play later in the night as the losers will have to eat it.
