Russo discussed how WWE subtly put SmackDown over on RAW this week. Russo mentioned that the USA Network was not happy with RAW over the past few weeks, and getting Roman was a way to pacify the executives at the network.
However, Russo added that WWE were smart in their booking decisions by ending the show with Roman on top, signifying a victory for SmackDown over RAW. Russo suggested it may have been Vince McMahon or Bruce Prichard’s idea.

Roman Reigns had a dominant showing on RAW
Russo pointed out that Roman won twice on the show: once during the tag team match by pinning Xavier Woods, and again in the main event. Roman exercised complete domination over the top stars of the red brand.
During the tag team match, Bobby Lashley laid waste to Big E at ringside while The Tribal Chief used the distraction to land a spear on Woods and claim the win. However, Roman was also the victim of a spear from Lashley after the match.
This set the stage for a triple threat match for the main event featuring Roman, Lashley, and Big E. During the final stages of the match, Lashley brutalized Big E with several vicious chair shots. Reigns took the opportunity to hit a big-time spear on Lashley and win the match.
