That has to be Bobby Roode’s music. Tonight (Mar. 6) on SmackDown, Charlotte Flair and Ruby Riott opened the show with a promo a battle. Both Flair and Riott brought their ‘A’ games and explained the reasoning for their feud heading into Fastlane.
As the segment was winding down it appeared The Riott Squad were going to attack Flair and best the SmackDown women’s champion due to that damn numbers game. Then Roode showed up.
“I formed the #RiottSquad, with one sole purpose: to DESTROY the myth!”

Why? Roode never really said and the announcers only mentioned he was there to be a guest commentator for the first match of the night.

As soon as Roode’s music hit Ruby Riott and her squad cleared the ring. They just left.
Then SD Live went to commercial break and came back to Roode sitting down at the announce table.
The Fastlane pay-per-view (PPV) on Sun., Mar. 11, 2018, at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
Is the Mixed Match Challenge Universe crossing over into WWE Universal canon? Or just a glorious coincidence by Roode?
