The No. 1 contender to Triple H's WWE World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania reemerges on Thursday night.

Roman Reigns kicked off Thursday’s hottest show amid chants of “Roman” from the WWE Universe as he wasted no time with his entrance, entering the arena via the SmackDown stage, rather than through the WWE Universe. The Big Dog recounted how he brought the “big fight” to WWE World Heavyweight Champion Triple H Monday, when he delivered an absolutely brutal attack that left The Game with six staples in his head.
