WWE News: Roman Reigns fined on SmackDown Live
What's the story?
This week's episode of WWE SmackDown Live started with Shane McMahon hosting a Town Hall, after previously having ejected Kevin Owens from the building. The Town Hall was meant to address any possible grievances Superstars may have had with Shane's regime.
Roman Reigns was the first one to speak up and what he said did not please Shane. It led to Shane fining Reigns for his actions.

The heart of the matter
The Town Hall on SmackDown was kind of a disaster for Shane McMahon. Roman Reigns spoke first and he told Shane that he just didn't understand that none of the people in attendance had any respect for him. If that wasn't enough, he then told Shane, "As far as diplomacy goes, you can kiss my ***."
Shane immediately said he'd fine Roman Reigns for his controversial words before he continued with the Town Hall. The Town Hall eventually ended with Kevin Owens coming out through the crowd and hitting Shane McMahon with a Stunner before escaping back out through the crowd. Before the night ended, Shane McMahon would get hit by a Stunner once again during that main event which pitted Kevin Owens against Dolph Ziggler.
What's next?
At this point, it doesn't look like Shane McMahon's feud with Roman Reigns is over. At the same time, Shane's feud with Kevin Owens is continuing to gather more steam. It won't be a surprise if KO and Reigns possibly join forces at SummerSlam to face Shane and whoever he picks.
