Roman Reigns had been asking for Edge to make his way down to the ring for most of tonight’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown. When he finally got his wish, Reigns had a brief discussion with the Rated-R superstar before getting interrupted by Kevin Owens.
Once Reigns and Edge were finally in the ring together, Reigns wasted little time in ripping into the legendary superstar. “You disrespected me, therefore you disrespected my family,” he said. “I’m only going to say this once, acknowledge me. Acknowledge me as the main event of WrestleMania. Acknowledge me as the champion of choice. Say my name. Understand me? Say my name. That’s your cue, go.”
However, before Edge and Reigns could properly get into a potential match at WrestleMania, Reigns was interrupted by Kevin Owens, who delivered a brutal Stunner to the WWE Universal Champion. Edge simply did nothing but watch with a smile, while Owens stormed out of the ring and back up the ramp to end the night.
