Becky Lynch shows up. Becky says that SmackDown is the show that is in her blood, the place where she changes the game and the place with the fans that raise her up. As she says she is in the mood for a fight, King Corbin shows up. Corbin says he should be starting tonight's show off, not Becky, and questions if Becky is still "The Man." Becky tells him that if he steps one foot in the ring, they will find out. As Corbin steps into the ring, The Rock shows up. The Rock talks about how he introduced the word "smackdown" into modern language, then calls King Corbin "a broke-ass Burger King on crack." Corbin interrupts The Rock after he says he has come back home, and says that he is "The Great One" and "the most electrifying king in sports entertainment" before telling The Rock and Becky to know their roles and shut their mouths. The Rock tells Corbin that winning King of the Ring does not make one king or gives him license to dress like a "35-year-old virgin" at Comic Con. Corbin says he does whatever he wants because he is superior to everybody and the locals' king is not LeBron James. After The Rock and Becky both tell Corbin it doesn't matter what he thinks, The Rock and Becky agree that he is a "super tough dude," then The Rock leads them into chanting "STD" to say what they think of him. The Rock says Corbin should be embarrassed after insulting the fans and The Rock, and says that he and Becky will kick his ass, which they then proceed to do. The Rock then hits Corbin with the People's Elbow, then hits The Rock Bottom after some help from Becky.
