Backstage, Paul Heyman apologizes to Roman Reigns as he informs him that Jey Uso’s phone goes straight to voicemail.

Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa return and Jimmy has to admit their attempt to contact Jey has also come up empty. Roman fumes about the timing of it all and then apologizes to Jimmy for talking that way to him. He says he needs them to be as strong as they ever were, because if they’re not, there’s no more ones to put up.
Reigns asks Paul to order catering to the bus— sushi, steaks, a good dinner— and tells Uso and Sikoa to go eat while he takes care of business in the ring.
And so we go to break.

They get in the ring and Heyman hands Reigns a microphone. He demands Greenville acknowledge him and says he’d rather talk about Cody Rhodes, the #1 contender and Royal Rumble winner who actually deserves his attention, but these simple folks have reduced him to talking about the past.
They want him to talk about Sami Zayn, so he’ll talk, and he reminds us there’s two sides to every story and we’re gonna hear his. In order to hear his side of the story, they gotta go back to WarGames. He looked into Sami’s eyes that night and saw everything he needed to see.

What he saw was greed, the same thing that he sees in everyone who ever interacts with him. When he walks into a restaurant everybody wants what they want and that’s to use him. He gave Sami a chance and all he did was use the Bloodline and use the Island of Relevancy. Nobody ever wants to give back.
SAMI ZAYN ATTACKS FROM OUT OF NOWHERE! Rabbit punches, he takes his hoodie off to reveal an edited Sami Uso shirt with “Zayn” taped on, but Reigns recovers and takes him out! Calling Paul to bring him a chair, he gets it but Sami wipes him out with a spear before he can use it!

Zayn grabs the chair and goes to wail on Roman with it but he rolls away and to the floor! Sami gets on the mic and screams for Reigns, a guttural yowl of pain, and says he Roman’s wrong, he never wanted anything from him, until now, and he’s going to take it, because he’s coming after him and the Undisputed Universal Championship.
Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa jump the barricade and attack Sami in the ring, putting boots to him with vigor and zeal! Samoan Spike from Solo! They horsecollar Zayn with the chair, Sikoa charges in but Roman stops him!
Reigns approaches Sami and says he wants something from him and pulls the chair off as thunderous “We want Jey!” chants come down. He yells at Zayn for breaking his Bloodline and says he’s gonna give him what he wants, but Roman wants him in Montreal at Elimination Chamber so he can break him in front of all his family and friends.

Back over to Vega…

Brawling Brutes (Pete “Butch” Dunne & Ridge Holland) vs. Viking Raiders (Erik & Ivar)-Dunne and Ivar to start, Warbeard backs him into the corner but Dunne launches forearms right back!

— InsideSport WWE (@insidesportwwe) February 4, 2023
She says WrestleMania is going to be epic and you can’t underestimate someone as persistent as Rhea and tonight we’re in the Carolinas—
Sonya Deville rolls up to call that nobody wants to be in and says she wants to win that title, and it’ll be her against Rhea at WrestleMania because Hollywood demands a star and she’s a star.
And so we go to break.

Charlotte Flair vs. Sonya Deville (WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship)
Circling, collar and elbow, Flair shrugs her off and follows with a shoulder block. Waistlock takedown, into a cover, not even a one count and Charlotte shifts gears to a wristlock. Deville with a hair pull to break loose, wristlock of her own, Flair rolls through, whip reversed, Flair Flip!

A Cody Rhodes video package follows, celebrating his comeback and Royal Rumble victory.
The Bloodline are backstage.
Roman Reigns asks Jimmy Uso where his brother is, and he says he doesn’t know and he hasn’t spoken to him. Reigns asks if he finds that disrespectful, that not only would Jey walk out, but not even communicate for a whole week when they have a title match next week?

You don’t walk out on your obligations, Roman says, and he asks Jimmy again if he’s spoken to Jey, and again Uso says he hasn’t heard, but he knows he’ll be there. Jey needs time to chill out, but he’ll be there next week. That’s not good enough for Reigns, and he tells Jimmy and Solo to go find Jey, now.
