WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: BROCK RELAXES, RONDA SPEAKS, IC TITLE MATCH SET UP, TWO ROYAL MATCHES, AND MORE

Your announcers are Michael Cole and Pat McAfee.

We begin with a look back at what happened between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar.

Brock Lesnar stands outside Roman's locker room and Kayla stops to ask about the consequences of his actions from last week. 

Brock says he paid a fine, bought some vehicles and he got one that Roman will like, in blood red.  Brock says that he was told not to do anything unless he is provoked so he will go into Roman's locker room so he can get provoked.  Brock enters the room and he likes what Roman has, but not as good as his.  Brock takes some food and then sits down on the couch in front of monitor.

Match Number One:  Shinsuke Nakamura (with Rick Boogs) versus Jimmy Uso (with Jey Uso)

We take a look at what Kevin Owens did on Raw.

We go to Brock in Roman's locker room and he is not going to get the deposit back with the damage he has done to the room.

We go to commercial.

We are back and we are reminded that Undertaker will be added to the Hall of Fame next week.

Michael Cole mentions that Shad Gaspard will be given the Warrior Award.

Kayla Braxton is in the back with Drew McIntyre.  She asks Drew about his match against Baron Corbin.

Drew says he cannot compare his match with Corbin against his other opponents because this is personal.  Drew says he has returned every second of making Corbin's life hell since he came back from injury.  Drew says that makes him happy.  He says he could take out Corbin tonight, but he wants to wait until Wrestlemania.  He will knock that smug, pathetic grin off Corbin's face.

We have a video package showing Baron Corbin at his lowest.  He says 2021 was the roughest year for him.  He talks about his hardships.  He says he was at rock bottom.  He mentions he was able to turn nothing into millions and things changed for him.  They say money doesn't buy you happiness, but that is said by poor people because I am happy.  Corbin mentions his best friend Riddick Moss.  He says he was so happy about Day 1 and what happened to Drew McIntyre.  I will end Drew's career at Wrestlemania.

Riddick and Baron are standing next to MONITOR and they are laughing.  Baron says they could do a movie about him and even do a trilogy about him.   Moss has a suggestion for the movie title and Corbin does not like it and he walks away.

Kofi Kiingston says when they said you were going to have a match against the New Day, he wasn't talking about him.  If it isn't him, then WHO?  

Xavier Woods comes out.

Paul Heyman is in the Romanmobile and he introduces Roman Reigns.  

Roman says that you are dying to acknowledge me, but we have been all over the city dealing with some business.  They went to Del Frisco for steak.  He says they had five grand worth of sides.  Then they stopped by Madison Square Garden, the place he busted Brock Lesnar open.  Roman tells Brock he is going to warn him once.  Get out of my locker room by the time I get to Barclay's or I will bust you open.

Ronda Rousey makes her way to the ring.
