Tonight’s WWE SmackDown was set to deal with the big fallout from the Royal Rumble, which was centered around Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman after their plan came to fruition against Brock Lesnar, robbing him of his WWE Championship. The Universal Champion and Tribal Chief was out first with Heyman by his side, and Heyman kicked things off. Heyman said “you know why we bothered to come here tonight? To acknowledge what really happened. Let’s acknowledge a couple of truths right now. There was no plot, no conspiracy. This was not done to make Brock Lesnar look foolish, though he looks like a fool anyway. History, the trajectory of this entire industry unfolds in front of your very eyes.”
