SmackDown now belongs to Roman Reigns.
WWE hyped Vince McMahon delivering "the biggest acquisition in SmackDown history" on tonight's episode of SmackDown. And he delivered, revealing that none other than WrestleMania (musical) headliner Elias is officially on SmackDown Live.
And #SDLive's biggest acquisition is.... @IAmEliasWWE!

Elias is a big get for the blue brand, but he wasn't the biggest get on Tuesday night as "The Big Dog" Roman Reigns, much to the surprise of McMahon, is also headed to SmackDown. Reigns made his way down to the ring and laid out both Elias and McMahon while declaring that SmackDown is now his yard.
You sure you wanna do that, @WWERomanReigns? #SDLive #SuperstarShakeUp @VinceMcMahon pic.twitter.com/EwzWbiAOqj
