SmackDown Results: Big E attacked; Rollins sends a grim message to Edge
SmackDown kicked off after a short recap of last week's match between Seth Rollins and Edge. Roman Reigns came out with Heyman and The Usos to start the show before Heyman went on a rant about how everyone, including Brock Lesnar, feared Roman.

Backstage on SmackDown, Heyman kept telling Roman that he did not know that Brock was supposed to show up at SummerSlam. Roman asked if he would show up at Extreme Rules, and Heyman said no. Reigns said that it was Heyman's job to know in advance before we moved on.
