Roman Reigns came back to the winning road in a valiant effort on SmackDown putting away the man who tried to end his career. The premiere night on FOX has him scheduled against Eric Rowan of the Bludgeon Brothers in a match that has a big fight feel in it. Later, we came to know that the match had become a Lumberjack match with 20 superstars surrounding the ring. This meant the match also became a No Disqualifications affair where anything happening will be legal.

Rowan took full advantage of it despite Reigns’ Hell in a Cell tag team partner Daniel Bryan sitting on SmackDown commentary table. He sent Roman Reigns into the Lumberjacks who pounced on him to start a beatdown. Rowan took control of the match following it up with a big boot on his opponent. The fight continued outside as Reigns downed Rowan with a Samoan Drop.

Harper appeared at ringside trying to distract the Big Dog who also delivered a huge powerbomb to Ali on top of a chunk of superstars. He tried to attack Roman Reigns but ran into a Running Knee from Daniel Bryan inside the ring. Reigns charged him down with a Superman Punch and nailed him with a big spear to pick up the win. This will keep the momentums in his side heading into Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.

SmackDown FOX premiere was a star-studded night which became bigger with WWE.com announcement where they scheduled Roman Reigns in a big fight,
“In the wake of the announcement that Daniel Bryan & Roman Reigns will battle Erick Rowan & Luke Harper at WWE Hell in a Cell, Sports Illustrated reported via Twitter that The Big Dog will go one-on-one with Rowan when Friday Night SmackDown debuts on Fox next Friday at 8/7 C. Erick Rowan & Luke Harper have caused mass destruction on the blue brand since reuniting. But who will prevail when Reigns once again squares off against the Superstar responsible for his backstage attack two months ago? And what role will Harper & Bryan ultimately play in the mix?”
A win seemed much-needed for him before going into Hell in a Cell where he and Bryan will team up against the Bludgeon Brothers. Thankfully, he was able to pick up the win to bounce back in the rivalry which Rowan and Harper dominated.
