He said that he would end Reigns's 1,200+ title reign in a snap of a finger at Crown Jewel, but was interrupted by Roman Reigns (w/ Paul Heyman). Reigns put over Knight for his antics & getting the fans on his side, but told Knight he did not have a chance since Reigns was the face of WWE & that he does "Cinema".
    Knight told Reigns he was not here to finish a story, he was here to start an era and it would start by kicking his ass a Crown Jewel and told Reigns to lay him out good or he would come back and bring a new "Bloodline" on Reigns's forehead as he stood tall as the new WWE Champion.
  • Kevin Owens def. Austin Theory (w/ Grayson Waller).

    Sikoa confronted Cena and said that he was pissed off that he had to wait until tomorrow to fight him, but Sikoa told Cena that he would allow him to make his last bows to the fans because he will not be able to after Crown Jewel.
