"WWE: Then. Now. Forever."
The Smackdown intro brings us into a packed arena in Boston for another exciting edition of Smackdown! In the ring is Charlotte and Ric Flair, with Becky Lynch joining commentary as Charlotte begins to speak. We're a little over a week away from Wrestlemania, and that means I'm a little over a week away from putting an end to this so-called Divas Revolution and beginning the WOO Revolution! This also means putting an end to Becky Lynch and Boston's so-called hometown hero, Sasha Banks! And then, the record-breaking crowd in Dallas will be chanting just one thing…WOO! She and her father begin to "WOO" until Sasha Banks comes out for this opening contest! We go back to Smackdown last week when Charlotte's plan to further divide Becky and Sasha backfired as the two of them began attacking the Divas Champion! Back at ringside now, and this contest is underway!

Bubba Ray says the Usos are a good team, but they'll never be the Dudley Boyz. One of the reasons we came back to the WWE was to steal the show at Wrestlemania again, and we're going to do that at the expense of the Usos! We've beat up their father Rikishi, we've beat them up, if the Wild Samoans were still wrestling we'd beat them up!

Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman…and this is your main event of the evening! I have the right to say that for I am the advocate for the Beast of Wrestlemania, Brock Lesnar! The very same Brock Lesnar that can guarantee you every single year THE Wrestlemania moment. The very same that gave you the greatest moment when he conquered the undefeated streak of Undertaker at Wrestlemania 30. The very same that will step into the ring willingly with a certified lunatic Dean Ambrose in a No Holds Barred Street Fight. Let's talk about what that is…that means that Dean can use whatever weapons he wants against Brock Lesnar. If Ambrose can get his hands on a chair, he can use it on Brock Lesnar…same with a crowbar and a kendo stick and it's all perfectly legal. And now, now we have these No Holds Barred Legends like Terry Funk and Mick Foley, they're giving Dean Ambrose things to use like a barbed wire baseball bat and a chainsaw. The only reason Mick Foley and Terry Funk are still alive is because God refuses to answer my prayers every single night, but the only people that should be praying are Dean Ambrose and his fans because Brock Lesnar can get his hands on Dean Ambrose. When he gets his arms around Dean Ambrose and takes him to Suplex and finally ends that torture with an F5, the WWE Universe will finally realize that the most dangerous weapon in a WWE match is Brock Lesnar himself. Well, I finished that one a little early, I'm sure Boston is through hearing me flap my gums, my client is a little bit itchy…so Dean Ambrose, get your tuckus out here because Brock Lesnar wants a fight right here, right now!

Ambrose goes after Lesnar with the kendo stick, but gets dropped by Brock as the Beast breaks the kendo stick in half before hitting an F5 on the Lunatic Fringe! With Ambrose down, Lesnar looks at the Wrestlemania sign before leaving the ring as we get a replay on what went down. Brock and Heyman walk up the ramp as the show comes to a close.
