| 0:00.0 | Right, given what has happened on SmackDown recently, I, Simon Miller, have decided I want |
| 0:05.8 | to be the Tribal Chief. I'm tied, sure, this worked out as I attended. Can you imagine |
| 0:11.2 | if this is what the Tribal Chief wore, but Bloodline never would have worked? Speaking |
| 0:14.8 | of the line with Blood though, WWE have to keep pumping out those videos, because we had |
| 0:20.2 | another one at the start of SmackDown telling you everything is going on between Roman |
| 0:23.7 | Reigns and J. U.S.O. and it just gets you so damn pumped, especially because later we're |
| 0:29.3 | going to come up with the rules of combat wherever they sit. Maybe it was cooler than Matt |
| 0:33.5 | but don't worry about it. They'd also cut to Roman Reigns who's only just arriving at SmackDown. |
| 0:38.9 | This guy, he is terrible at time keeping. Also, my friends, hello and welcome to another episode |
| 0:43.3 | of Abston Down, and today obviously we are focusing on WWE Friday Night Presents, which is what they |
| 0:49.6 | should call it, if they ever want to rename it, should be called Friday Night, WWE Bananza. |

| 1:01.6 | got into the nitty-gritty and straight away, everybody was mad, but wrestling is the best. |
| 1:08.0 | Because we had our second number one contender match for the U.S. Champion, |
| 1:11.2 | should be that it was shameless taking on Rey Mysterio, taking on Cameron Grimes, |
| 1:15.2 | taking on LA Night. There he is. WWE must know they have something with Lara as well because |
| 1:20.9 | they allowed him to cut a promo as he made his way to the ring and everybody was going crazy. |
| 1:25.5 | And yeah, he is just a joy. I can't tell you why, sometimes in pro wrestling, stuff just clicks. |
| 1:32.2 | We obviously went right into a brawl and ended with night standing tall when we cut to a commercial |
| 1:38.0 | and by the time we came back, Shamus was just in control. I guess we're going to have to make |
| 1:43.5 | it up again. I suppose the Irishman can attend tonight and gone, oh hey there fella, |
| 1:47.4 | I hear you're not getting a push for a few weeks out of your, maybe you'll miss your mark. |
