Jey Uso challenges Roman Reigns after destroying Solo Sikoa in SmackDown match.
It was an electric night at Madison Square Garden as WWE SmackDown closed with a bang. The Bloodline drama reached a fever pitch as Jey Uso issued a challenge to Roman Reigns, with the pair seemingly on a collision course for SummerSlam.

The evening began with the Tribal Court trial of Roman, showing a video of his years of manipulation and abuse directed at the twins. Roman fought back tears and professed he didn't want the responsibility anymore, but it was all a ruse to sucker Jey in. A brawl between The Usos, Roman, and Solo Sikoa ensued, leading to Jimmy being sent through a table and stretchered out in an ambulance. Jey later returned for revenge, battering Solo with a steel chair before issuing his challenge to the Universal Champion.

Midway through the show, Edge made his return as a guest on the Grayson Waller Effect. Despite hints that he could be approaching the end of his in-ring career, Edge insisted he was not going anywhere, and revealed he would be facing Waller in the main event. Waller delivered a fantastic performance against the Hall of Famer, and was rewarded with a message of respect from Edge after the match.

Elsewhere on the show, Sheamus was screwed out of his United States Title match against champion Austin Theory when Pretty Deadly got involved. The match was strong albeit slightly rushed, and it was a shame that NXT Champion Karrion Kross still can't find any momentum on the blue brand. Asuka was quickly interrupted by Charlotte Flair and Bianca Belair, resulting in a wild brawl before Bayley Iyo Sky rushed down and looked to cash in her Money In The Bank briefcase on the Empress of Tomorrow. Bianca and Charlotte put a stop to that before anything was made official, meaning Asuka is still WWE Women's Champion and Iyo still has the coveted contract.

It was an action-packed night at WWE SmackDown, and the feud between Jey Uso and Roman Reigns is sure to heat up as we approach SummerSlam.
