#2 Universal Champion Roman Reigns says he's going to 'Goldberg' Goldberg at WWE Elimination Chamber

Instead of the usual in-ring segment of the Universal Champion on SmackDown, we were given a backstage sit-down interview this week.

Michael Cole interviewed Roman Reigns for his insight ahead of his Universal Championship defense next week against Goldberg. Reigns was in no mood to chalk up his opponent's achievements and proceeded to say that he's the greatest champion in history.

Roman Reigns and Goldberg were due to meet at WrestleMania 36 before their match was axed due to the pandemic. However, Reigns claims that he is much different now as The Tribal Chief and Head of the Table. He vowed to 'Goldberg' Goldberg next Saturday.

#1 Charlotte Flair retains SmackDown Women's Championship against Naomi, Ronda Rousey appears after the match

In the match of the night, and perhaps one of the best matches of the year so far. Charlotte Flair and Naomi put on a stellar championship bout in the main event of SmackDown.

The match had everything from near falls to Naomi almost becoming a three-time women's champion. However, after some high-paced action, Charlotte Flair picked up the win with her Natural Selection finisher.

The champion prevailed, but Sonya Deville - who Naomi had slapped at the start of the night - entered the ring to get in her face after the match. The Glow responded by attacking her, only for Charlotte to blindside her.

This brought out Ronda Rousey, who fought Charlotte and Sonya before they retreated. We might see a tag team match between Charlotte Flair & Sonya Deville and Ronda Rousey & Naomi soon.
