S3 Episode 16 Raw & Smackdown Cards

Episode #16 (July 31, 2020):

Raw Card:

Segment: Roman Reigns, The Usos, LLC open Raw already standing in the ring to open Raw to a chorus of boos hopefully. Roman tells everybody to quiet down, which they probably don't do. Roman goes on to say that his journey to win the WWE Championship earlier this year was everything to him. I did everything in my power to return and come back and win the WWE Championship. I even put my entire career on the line. The WWE Championship means so much to me. Then one day later, my entire world comes crashing down around me. Vince, Heyman, Brock, all steal the WWE Championship out from under me. And then, I am not allowed to ever challenge for the Championship again? Bullshit. I've worked so hard, blood, sweat, and tears, given my life and in return, I get shafted by my own boss. SO that was it. Fate was sealed. I had to find my way back into the title. I had to get into the Money in the Bank match. Since the qualifiers were already happening, I needed to get in the last one. I needed to face Keith Lee cause I already knew I could kick his ass. So I looked to my family, my own blood in the Usos to help me out. But I needed to be certain that Black would get taken out. So I talked to my former friend Seth Rollins. He told me that he could hire LLC for me, but he would only do it if The New Day lose that tag team tournament. So I hired LLC to do both. Cesaro and Lashley and Lana all nod in agreeance. So Jimmy, Jey, Cesaro, and Lashley all get their gear and drive up and attack Aleister Black. So much so that he is out for months, all while I'm sitting down with that fool Ricochet chatting about whatever nonsense. Look, I tried to be Mr. Nice Guy, and that got me nowhere. So I had to be ruthless. I paid off LLC, got my family in and they did the work. Then they attacked each other to get off the scent. But there was no scent cause yall had R-Truth to figure it out. And we all saw how that turned out. Roman continues saying that sure, he didn't win the Money in the Bank briefcase and had to deal with Bray Wyatt but that's all in the past. I've got my boys with me and money to spare to hire LLC. I'm coming for that WWE Championship, and there's nothing Heyman or Vince or anyone in the WWE Universe that can stop me. Lights go out and come back and Aleister Black is standing behind everyone. Black kicks one of the uso's head and then tries to start attacking but soon gets outnumbered, but he is able to escape.

This kid hasn't yet earned his spot, not while I'm here. And by the way Paul, I'm coming after Brock's title and winning back my WWE Championship
