WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: BIANCA STARTS TO GO THROUGH DAMAGE CTRL, WEIGH IN, PRETTY DEADLY, AND CROWN JEWEL IS COMING

Your announcers are Michael Cole, Corey Graves, and Kevin Patrick.

We begin with a look back at last week's contract signing and everything that came out of it.

LA Knight makes his way to the ring.

Knight wants to talk to ya.  He says nearly 1200 days, that is impressive.  What is more impressive is how quickly 1200 days can come to an end.  Knight reminds us of what happened last week.  Roman thought he was going to give a spear, but he got dropped on his head on the business end of a BFT.  Tomorrow, at Crown Jewel, it goes no different.  Knight says this is a hostile takeover.  He says he is coming to take over everything you stand for and everything you think you have owned for the last three years.  That title has no choice but to come with him and be the end of Roman's reign.

Roman Reigns' music plays and he makes his way to the ring with Paul Heyman.

Roman is handed the mic by Paul and he says he would normally tell this irrelevant town to acknowledge him, but they know who he is.  Roman says he can't say the same about Knight.  Roman says he will introduce himself one time and one time only.  Roman tells Knight who he is.

Roman says a lot has changed.  He figured people would step up when he took his leave and he didn't expect it to be Knight.  He used his time wisely and got these people on your side.  He says he gives Knight credit for that.  Roman tells the people to chant Knight's name and they do it.  Roman says this is the last night that it is going to happen.

Roman says he has advanced this business, but you are pushing it back.  Roman says the kids call what he does 'cinema'.  Roman says he is the mega star.  Roman says he turned this into a multi-billion dollar industry.  What have you done over the last few months?  You got the people to chant your name and you are cosplaying a redneck version of his cousin?  Enjoy tonight because tomorrow he is going to smash you and end you.  Roman says Knight will be left in the desert, and he won't be the last one.

Knight says Roman has to be feeling pretty unbeatable now.  You have beaten everybody.  You beat just about everyone who stood in front of you.  You don't understand.  Knight says he is not coming from the same angle.  He is not here to finish something.  Knight says he is here to start something.  He is going to start the LA Knight Era.  He is going to cosplay as the man who kicks your ass.  Knight says he will do it in real life.  You call yourself the Mega Star because you have the title.  Knight says he did it on his own.  Knight tells Roman to make sure that he finishes him if he is going to be left in the desert because if you don't do it, he will come and the only bloodline you will see is between your eyes as he is called the new champion.

Officials come out to separate Knight and Roman.

We are back with a look at Kevin's punch of Theory and Waller.

Grayson Waller is on commentary for the next match.

We are back and Owens punches Theory and sends him into the announce table before sending him into the ring.  Owens has some words for Waller and that allows Theory to trip Owens and then send him into the ring post.  Theory clips Owens and gets a near fall.  Theory gets Owens on his shoulders but Owens escapes and goes for a pop up power bomb but Theory leaps over him.  Theory avoids a stunner and he hits a rolling blockbuster for a near fall.  Theory kicks and chokes Owens in the corner.  Theory punches Owens in the corner.  Theory puts Owens on the turnbuckles and he punches Kevin.  Owens blocks a superplex attempt and Owens hits a fisherman's buster off the turnbuckles.  Owens with a pop up power bomb and then he looks around and tells Waller to watch what happens.  Owens with a kick and stunner for the three count.
