SmackDown this week wasn't just another show; it was a history-making event fueled by The Rock and Roman Reigns, who delivered exactly what they promised. ## The Samoan powerhouses are locked in a heated rivalry with the "American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes, a conflict ignited at the WrestleMania kickoff press event in Las Vegas and fueled by the Undisputed WWE Universal Title match announcement between Reigns and Rhodes for WrestleMania 40. ## Opening the segment, Reigns wasted no time in disparaging Salt Lake City, labeling this SmackDown "historic" before declaring it the night The Rock would be officially inducted into The Bloodline. And right on cue, The Great One himself strutted to the ring. ## The Rock's entrance wasn't without its signature barbs. He announced a new attendance record for Utah, only to turn on the crowd immediately, blaming them for unleashing his dark side and sabotaging the "biggest WrestleMania main event of all time." ## The 10-time WWE Champion unleashed a tirade of historic insults against Rhodes, dredging up his WrestleMania loss to Reigns last year. He ominously predicted Rhodes's defeat, claiming he wouldn't finish his story. ## The Rock pledged his allegiance to The Bloodline with his trademark catchphrases. ## This is NOT @TheRock we remember... 👀This SOLD OUT #SmackDown crowd is getting RIPPED TO SHREDS TONIGHT. 🫢#SmackDown pic.twitter.com/pbScC6sGWn— WWE (@WWE) February 17, 2024 ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
