Roman Reigns came out on SmackDown to cut a promo on winning Royal Rumble and then main-event WrestleMania for the fifth time. The Usos joined him inside the ring speaking about their comeback and getting revenge on King Corbin.

Soon Corbin came out delivering harsh comments on Reigns and The Usos. Reigns then challenge Corbin in a singles contest at Royal Rumble which was accepted.

The main event of Smackdown featured the lineup of The Usos vs. Dolph Ziggler and King Baron Corbin. Corbin instigated Reigns at ringside as a result of which Reigns nailed him with a huge spear to disqualify the match.
