After Triple H introduced Nick Aldis as the new WWE SmackDown general manager, they were quickly interrupted.
With Dominik Mysterio making an entrance to a deafening crowd reaction of boos, Triple H commented, “I always thought they piped in” the boos but it really was that loud in the ring.
Doubling down on busting the conspiracy theories, Triple H also gave Dominik his microphone, suggesting maybe his was to blame for why no one could hear him.
After Aldis joined the conversation, being introduced as the new General Manager of SmackDown, he had more pressing business at hand than to placate Dom.
Telling Dom he was “a big fan of his Dad,” he said he was there to “cut to the chase” to immediately introduce the newest SmackDown star.
Kevin Owens made his entrance as the newest draftee to SmackDown, apparently having been traded for Jey Uso in the deal brokered by Cody Rhodes.
KO silently entered the ring, gave a Stunner to Dominik and shook hands with Nick Aldis and Raw General Manager Pearce and gave a little hug to Triple H to end the in-ring segment.
Backstage, Roman Reigns was already not pleased at Owens’ arrival, being shown watching the segment in his private locker room before getting agitated.
Elsewhere on tonight’s WWE SmackDown, Roman Reigns returned in the opening segment of the night where his next challenger was seemingly revealed. You can click here to read more about that.
