Roman Reigns kicked off the Season Premiere of SmackDown with Paul Heyman, but without The Usos.

Reigns made Heyman read a tweet that said Lesnar was going to attack Roman at SmackDown tonight. Roman said that if Brock did show up, he would be beaten twice in a row before taunting The Beast Incarnate by calling him a coward.
