Roman Reigns Kicks Things Off
Roman Reigns opens RAW and makes his way out in Birmingham. Reigns wants to get right to business but first asks to be acknowledged. Reigns says he has big plans for tonight and for the future. Reigns says there’s something he needs to acknowledge to move forward. Reigns says he’s not the same guy he used to be, but he can be.
He says Cody Rhodes predicted it, a year and a half ago – and Seth Rollins and his team followed through on what Rhodes said – they took everything from Reigns. Reigns says he no longer has a Bloodline and says he is proud of Jey Uso’s success and says his time will come.
But back to what he has lost, he lost his Bloodline, his Wiseman and championships so they had to find something else to take from him. He then addresses Bronson Reed and before he can get a word in, Paul Heyman comes out with Bronson Reed. Heyman introduces the Tribal Thief, the owner of the Shoe-la Fala, Bronson Reed.
Heyman says that Reed pointed out to him that five years ago Heyman became Reigns’ Wiseman. He says for five years, they owned everything and created a Bloodline and they changed the entire industry… together. And now, Reigns is standing all alone in the ring, by himself. Heyman tells Reigns he misses him and tells him he loves him now.
And this is why he’s out here to disrespect Reigns. Heyman tries to get the crowd to chant Bronson Reed’s name but fails. Heyman says he’s not here to disrespect Reigns due to malice but it’s because he loves him and he needs tough love. Heyman says he wishes he was man enough to beat this tough love into Reigns and while he isn’t tough enough, Bronson Reed is.
Reigns says he’ll kick Reed’s ass at Clash in Paris and Heyman will be kissing Reigns’ ass. Reed gets on the mic and tells Reigns it’s time for him to get a history lesson. Reed says his tribal tattoos are earned whereas Reigns’ are paid for. Reed says he’s a savage Samoan and not civilized like Reigns and his Bloodline were.
Reigns says he’s the Tribal Chief and if Reed is Samoan, Reed belongs to him. He tells Reed to come in the ring and return his shoes and acknowledge him. Reed says if he comes down to the ring, he’ll make Reigns acknowledge his Tribal Thief.
