2/25 WWE Smackdown Report

"WWE: Then. Now. Forever."
We get highlights of Fastlane's main event Triple Threat Match, as Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, and Brock Lesnar waged battle for a shot at Triple H and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania. The match comes to an end with Reigns hitting a spear on Ambrose for the pinfall and his ticket punched for the main event of Wrestlemania! With that we're brought to a packed area in Indianapolis for another exciting edition of Thursday Night Smackdown. Triple H's music hits, bringing the COO and World Heavyweight Champion out to the ring with the belt on his shoulder, a mic in hand, and a smirk on his face. Commentary hypes the main event of Wrestlemania as Triple H sets his belt on a table before he begins to speak. Please, allow me to introduce myself: I am a man of wealth and taste, I've been around for a long, long year and lay a many a man's soul to waste. It's the Rolling Stone's "Sympathy for the Devil," and it could've been written about me. Am I the devil? Maybe, depends on who you ask. But if Roman Reigns forgot who I am, and thought there'd be no retribution for attacking me, there's no doubt in his mind any longer. We go back to Monday Night RAW for the brutal brawl between Reigns and Triple H, with Reigns being bloodied by The Game before he drives the face of Reigns into the steel steps with a Pedigree! We go back to the ring, where a smiling Triple H continues to speak. If Roman didn't remember when he was lying here on the floor in a puddle of his own blood Monday night, then on Tuesday morning when he was lying on an ice cold operating table waiting to get his shattered nose surgically repaired, I'm pretty sure it dawned on him there. He shows on the TitanTron pictures from Roman's recent surgery before continuing. That's the look of a man who knows his place, a man who has been humbled. I guess a little bit of it is my fault; the suit, the tie, the corporate role, it can be confusing…but I am the law, I am the Authority. It's human nature to wanna buck authority, to challenge law, to rebel against authority, I've even been there myself…but you can't beat authority. Roman knows it, you know it. You want to rebel, but you don't; you keep your head down, you do your job, you bow to authority. This goes out to Roman Reigns, to all of you, to anyone who hears my voice: if you meet me, have some courtesy, some sympathy and some taste; use all your well-earned policies, or I will lay your soul to waste. Roman Reigns wants to be the WWE World Heavyweight Champion more than anything in the world. It takes a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to be the champion. I've had to walk over a lot of people to get where I am. Roman's got the sweat down, he works hard, and I've been in the ring with him and he's good. As far as the blood goes, well…he pulls out a bloody cloth from Monday night…I've got that covered for ya, Roman. I'll get that last one at Wrestlemania, in AT&T Stadium in front of the largest crowd in history, you will be humbled and I will get those tears. I will get those tears, and there ain't a thing you can do about it, because I am the law. Because I am the Authority, because I'm the King of Kings. Because I'm The Game…and because I am the WWE World Heavyweight Champion! And, because I am that damn good! Triple H's music hits as he leaves the ring with the title as we go to the announce booth welcoming back Mauro along with the usual team of Byron Saxton and Jerry Lawler. Commentary hypes the surgery Roman Reigns, imploring us to follow WWE.com for the latest updates. Later tonight is a big six man tag match as The New Day take on AJ Styles, Chris Jericho, and a partner to be named later! Later tonight, we look at Shane McMahon's big return to WWE on Monday night!

Winners via pinfall: The League of Nations
The League of Nations celebrates in the ring as we get highlights of the finish. We go to earlier in the day, where Renee Young is standing by with Kevin Owens who has a big announcement. When I was watching RAW Monday Night, I was so inspired by Dean Ambrose. The way he took that beating from Brock Lesnar and then commandeered an ambulance to confront Brock one last time. Out of the kindness of my heart, and because he's earned it, I'm going to give him his rematch. Renee points out that Dean isn't here tonight, so Kevin says he must have the night off too. A big hand on his shoulder reveals Big Show, who says Kevin hasn't beaten him yet. Owens says this is the road to KO-Mania, and what you're looking for is the road to retirement. Show grabs him by the shirt, saying the road to retirement can make one pit stop because I have a match later tonight and it's against you. He lets Owens go, walking off as we go to commercial.

Back from commercial, WWE celebrates Black History Month with a quote from Harriet Tubman before we go to ringside, where the Dudley Boyz make their way to the ring as D-Von Dudley is set for action. We go back to Monday Night RAW three weeks ago, when the Dudleys took out The Usos after their match against the New Day. The Usos make their way to the ring now, as Jimmy looks to get a bit of revenge after what happened three weeks ago. Bubba and D-Von go to the announce table for a mic, as Bubba says they know what all these people want. You want the Dudleys to come out here, pull out a table, and put somebody through it! Well you ain't getting that! We ain't a circus act, we ain't a nostalgia act, we're the nine time WWE Tag Team Champions, which makes us better than every single one of you! D-Von says we could care less what you people think about us! We do what we do for us! We will continue to do whatever we have to do. We will make sure that we are the greatest tag team, whether you like it or not. Bubba says you can take your tables and your chants and SHOVE IT!
D-Von Dudley vs. Jimmy Uso
Jimmy starts with an early flurry of offense, bringing D-Von down with an enziguri. The flurry continues as we see Bubba pulling a table out from under the ring. It turns out to be a mere distraction as Bubba drops the top rope, bringing Jimmy down hard as D-Von rolls him up for the win!

Jericho addresses them becoming a team on Monday night, saying if we continue to be on the same page, the sky is the limit! Styles says that's why he came here, to be the best. He wants to have his Wrestlemania moment, and likes the idea that it could come as being Tag Team Champions! Jericho agrees, but says they need to have a strategy because of how good New Day are. Styles brings up the fact that tonight, there's three of them, two of us, and we need a partner. Jericho wonders who they could get, asking if he has Funaki's number after being in Japan. Styles never got it, as we hear Mark Henry offer for the WSM to join the Y2AJ. Henry says the New Day are clowns, they fool around too much. Tonight, we can teach them a serious lesson. Jericho shakes hands with Henry, who doesn't like the idea of being played. Henry slaps the shoulder of Styles, saying he'll see them out there. AJ asks Jericho if he always hits that hard, to which Jericho simply replies "…yep." We go to ringside, where Big Show makes his way to the ring for his match against Kevin Owens as we go to commercial.

Big E with a mic now, wanting to talk about the foul, nasty, moist, mess of a tag team that is Y2AJ and the supposed, alleged World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry. Kofi asks if Henry really thinks he's still the World's Strongest Man, leading to a laughing fit from the three of them. Kofi knows of a man in this very ring that would beg to differ…leading to Xavier Woods posing. Kofi says if you wanna be like Woods, make sure you eat your Booty-O's…the only cereal that makes sure you ain't booty! Woods says JeriStyles isn't a real tag team, Drake and Meek Mill would have a better chance of a successful partnership. Look at us, we are the WWE Tag Team Champions!
