WWE Smackdown: Seth Rollins mentioned ‘Mox’
It was the opening segment of the night when Seth Rollins interrupted the celebrations of Roman Reigns’ 508 days as the Universal Champion. Rollins then said that let’s ‘Acknowledge’ the fact that The Usos are the longest reigning Smackdown Champion and they are the cornerstone of the Bloodline just like he and Mox (John Moxley of AEW who was known as Dean Ambrose in WWE and was part of the ‘Shield’) was the one who helped Roman elevate to the top.

Owens & Rollins won the tag-team bout later in the night, which means we won’t see The Usos accompanying Roman Reigns during the Universal Championship bout against Seth Rollins at the Royal Rumble PPV event on Sunday, January 29.
No other captivating segment took place during the night, with this being the only highlight of the night.
