Instead of making some comments about their opponents, The Bloodline marched to the ring while Paul Heyman screamed "You done screwed up now!" And it's broken down, fists are flying!

After all that, The Bloodline emerged. The SmackDown Tag Team Champions and the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, accompanied of course by Paul Heyman.

Drew McIntyre goes to ask the crowd to acknowledge him, but Riddle cuts him off. They all look to acknowledge things about one another. Riddle acknowledges Randy as his best friend. Randy and Drew agree. Randy acknowledges that he's still got Drew's handprint from their WWE title feud, and Drew agrees. And the past is the past because they're focused on the here and now.

Drew even joins in on the word play, claiming that their game plan for Sunday is a "joint decision."

Eventually, Sami folds Nakamura, turning the submission into a pinning attempt. Nakamura breaks free and goes for another Kinshasa. Zayn rolls to the floor but still catches a flying knee. However, near the barricade, Zayn blasts Nakamura with the Helluva Kick and gets back in the ring just in time.

Sami Zayn defeats Shinsuke Nakamura via count-out.

Has Sami Zayn proved himself in the eyes of Roman Reigns?

Nakamura ducks a clothesline, rolling through with the armbar. In the middle of the ring, Sami may have no choice but to tap!

Nakamura fights off Sami in the corner but gets caught with a diving ax handle. A second one, though, fails, and Nakamura blasts Sami with a roundhouse to the gut.

Nakamura hammers Zayn with a series of kicks, finishing with a step-up enziguiri. In the corner, Zayn's spun around in the ropes for a sliding German suplex. Next up, is the Kinshasa. However, Zayn catches him and turns him upside down with a perfect Michinoku Driver!

Sami Zayn and Shinsuke Nakamura start things off with a lock up. Zayn has the upper hand at first but quickly loses it to the King of Strong Style.

After that, Lacey Evans comes out to mee the crowd. A new entrance to match her ner personality, it seems to have gotten through to the WWE Universe.

But before that, it's chapter five in the Lacey Evans story. Lacey says her father lost his battle with depression and addiction two months before her WWE tryout. A few more family members suffered a similar fate before her first match. Lacey says that by the time she got to her first match, she felt broken. But she managed to have that match, with her daughter watching on.

Sami Zayn goes backstage to ask Adam Pierce for a match with Shinsuke Nakamura next week. Instead, Pierce decides that we'll be getting that match...right now!

Backstage, Sami Zayn tells Paul Heyman that Shinsuke Nakamura has his eyes on the Head of the Table Roman Reigns. He promises that he'll personally take care of Nakamura. Heyman tells him that Reigns appreciates his initiative. Is Sami Zayn truly aligning himself with The Bloodline?

Before New Day can seal the deal, Butch emerges from under the ring! Butch takes out Kofi while Sheamus rocks Woods with a Brogue Kick. They pull the limp corpse of the King of the Ring inside, putting him through the table to put an end to things.

Sheamus and Ridge defeat The New Day

With Butch back and these three on the same page, SmackDown's got a dangerous trio to contend with.

With seemingly nobody around, Xavier Woods goes to the top rope for an elbow drop. Before he can drive Ridge through the table, Sheamus knocks him to the mat. Kingston saves his partner, sending Sheamus to the floor again, this time following with the trust fall. Sheamus goes for an Alabama Slam on the announcer's desk but is instead countered by Woods. Trouble in Paradise leaves Sheamus in the perfect position for the elbow drop!

Sheamus and Ridge eventually turn the tide, catching both opponents with the Ten Beats of the Bodhran. Kofi Kingston finds himself on the apron with Sheamus setting up White Noise. However, instead of going through a table, Sheamus drives Kofi into the apron. Woods knocks Sheamus down to the floor and rocks Ridge with a heel kick.

Sheamus brings out the Celtic Cross AKA Razor's Edge on Kofi, but Woods saves his partner just in time. Up on the apron, Sheamus has Woods up with the White Noise only for Kofi to return Woods' save. A superkick almost launches Sheamus into the table. Though he avoids that, he can't avoid a dive from Kofi!

Sheamus drags Kofi to the floor to injure him early, but Woods takes him down with a dive. The multi-time tag team champions drive a table into the sternum of the Celtic Warrior before setting their sights on Ridge inside. They look to go for a double suplex, and though they get the big man up, Sheamus shoves the table out of the way to avoid the loss.

Kofi Kingston and Ridge battle to the floor while the King himself Xavier Woods batters Sheamus in the ring. A series of kicks take out Sheamus's knees, and Woods follows with a running knee that sends the former WWE Champion to the floor. Ridge comes in, but tandem offense from the New Day is too much to handle for the big man.
