Page 5 - WWE SmackDown: 2 Superstars who flopped and 3 who impressed – Roman Reigns destroys Drew McIntyre with a savage promo, top Superstar stunned before Survivor Series (Nov 20th, 2020)

#3 Impressed on WWE SmackDown: Roman Reigns

They didn't really need to exchange blows on SmackDown tonight

On this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown, Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre met for a contract signing. The latter wanted to warn the Universal Champion and even went as far as giving him advice. Unfortunately for him, the advice didn’t sot well with The Tribal Chief who then went on to cut a promo so good that it automatically earned him a spot in the list of the most impressive Superstars this week.

Reigns went on to say that McIntyre is in no place to give him advice. Instead, he took it upon himself to let McIntyre know that the latter is a ‘second-choice’ Superstar in WWE. He said that the only reason why McIntyre was given the WWE Championship is that Reigns himself didn’t want to take up the job.

Even though Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre were not involved in a brawl during this SmackDown segment, the war of words between them made Reigns look stronger. While McIntyre chose to remain quiet for the majority of the segment – trying his best to not get triggered, Reigns did everything he could to belittle his RAW counterpart and reduce him to a mere prop.
