Roman Reigns returns, helps Jey Uso defeat Bron Breakker

After Jey Uso interrupted The Vision's show-opening promo, Paul Heyman challenged Uso to change the terms of his main event match to Extreme Rules. Uso accepted the challenge despite the obvious disadvantage it put him in. Later in the show, CM Punk approached LA Knight to pitch putting their differences aside and watching Uso's back to keep Seth Rollins from gaining any advantage ahead of the four-way world heavyweight championship match at Clash in Paris, which Knight refused. Punk also approached Uso and said he would have his back, but Uso simply thanked him and said he didn't want to owe anyone any favors.

Jey Uso def. Bron Breakker in an Extreme Rules match. After Uso seemingly had the match won with several chair shots, a spear and a splash, Bronson Reed pulled the referee from the ring to interrupt the count. Reed attacked Uso until Knight ran to the ring to take out Reed. Rollins then attacked Knight. Punk was the next man out, attacking Rollins and teaming up with Knight until Rollins shoved Punk into Knight, sending Knight crashing through a table that had been set up at ringside. Punk then brawled with Rollins out into the crowd. As Breakker again had the upper hand on Uso, Roman Reigns' music hit, and Reigns blindsided Breakker with a spear. Uso superkicked Breakker before a splash through a table to score the win. After the match, Reigns yelled at Reed, "I'll see you in Paris."

It feels like forever since a show didn't end with The Vision standing over a pile of bodies. Things were predictably chaotic in the match, with heaps of weapons being used and interference from everyone involved in the angle, but Uso standing tall was a needed twist. Reed vs. Reigns would also be a fine addition to Clash in Paris, allowing Reigns a win without damaging anything on The Vision's side. Grade: B
