John Cena has been looking for a fight against Roman Reigns but the Tribal Chief has not shown any interest. Instead, he chose to accept Balor’s challenge for the title. The two were scheduled to have a contract signing on tonight’s episode of SmackDown but things didn’t go as planned for either of them.

During the contract signing, Corbin rushed in and attacked Balor from behind. He took the Prince to the ringside and demolished him there before getting back to the ring. He picked the contract up and signed it before Cena rushed in and attacked Corbin. The Cenation leader then signed the contract himself while Reigns seethed from his chair at the table.

Paul Heyman later approached Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville insisting that the contract was not legal due to it having Balor’s name on it and Cena’s signature. Pearce and Deville overruled the special counsel and made the match official.
