For the first time in its 38-year history, WWE showcased one its top four premium live events, SummerSlam, as a two-night event.
Night One showcased six matches and saw title changes along with a celebrity debut.
Here are four takeaways from Night One of SummerSlam.
The original bloodline is as good as ever
Superstar Roman Reigns made his first appearance in the ring for the first time in a couple of months, and he did not disappoint.
He teamed up with his cousin, Jey Uso, against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed and the four opened the biggest party of the summer in a great fashion.
Reigns and Uso were able to come away victorious, proving that the original bloodline, led by Reigns, is as strong as ever.
Friends after all
A recent pairing of female superstars Alexa Bliss and 14-time women's champion Charlotte Flair has been the talking point of Friday Night Smackdown.
The two had a chance to capture the women's tag team championships Saturday night against Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez, and they did just that.
The unlikeliest of duos suddenly became tag team champions and are primed for a long run as one of the top women's tag teams.
CAN coexist! ❤️

Jelly Roll and Logan Paul put on a show
That's right, country music star Jelly Roll was featured in one of the six matches on Night One of SummerSlam.
His in-ring debut went spectacular and with the help of social media sensation turned wrestler Logan Paul, Jelly Roll left folks impressed with his debut.
It feels like the appearance from the country music star Saturday will not be the last time we see him in the ring.
Seth Rollins faked the world out
A hard-fought main event for the World Heavyweight Championship between CM Punk and Gunther will hardly be talked about.
That is because for the second in his career, Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract in shocking fashion.
Rollins has been "injured" since July 12, but it turned out to be a fake and it helped him cash in his briefcase.

After the "heist of the century" back at WrestleMania 31, Rollins now used what commentator Michael Cole described as the "ruse of the century," to once again become world champion.
THE RUSE OF THE CENTURY!

The longstanding rivalry between Punk and Rollins has reached an all-time high and the two will more than likely be face-to-face Monday night.
