#1 Alex Riley name drop
Without John Cena's help this week, Roman Reigns continued their feud consisting of the shootiest of shoot promos all by his lonesome. It started out outrageous enough as The Big Dog expanded his non-PG vernacular to include the phrase "stupid s***." WWE was on top of their censor game, so the most taboo word in that promo did not actually make air.
As crazy as the s-word is, it was the mere mention of one of John Cena's favourite people that caused even more buzz. While the full details of the Riley/Cena tension have never been disclosed, it's been stated many times that John played a very direct role in derailing Alex's career. Roman surprisingly touched on that subject on this night. Riley, who goes by his real name Kevin Kiley Jr, on Twitter responded to these comments.
