Finn Balor interrupts the celebration and says he hasn't forgotten how he was screwed out of a Universal Title match at SummerSlam. Balor says he is not waiting to challenge Roman Reigns to a title match at Extreme Rules. He lays out the challenge for next week before attacking Roman. The Bloodline overwhelm him, but The Street Profits come out to even the odds. Roman exits the ring, leaving his cousins out to dry as Balor hits a Coup de Grace to end SmackDown.

Roman Reigns has a microphone but gives it to Paul Heyman. The Tribal Chief has granted the fans permission to acknowledge him.

Meanwhile, it is now time for Roman Reigns' Family Celebration. Paul Heyman seems slightly out of it, but Roman reassures him that he is family. The Bloodline is in full force.

Dominik is upset as he and Rey walk to the back.

Sami is completely in control but is very nearly caught in a small package. He floors Dominik with a clothesline. The youngster elbows his way out of a Blue Thunder Bomb and hits a step-up enziguiri. Dom hits a 619 but Sami rolls out of the way before he can be splashed. He lures Dom into the corner and sets him up for the Helluva Kick. That's it.
