5 ways Kevin Owens could be changed after The Fiend's attack on him

The show ends with The Fiend and Bliss while KO is struggling to get back to his feet.

Thanks for following along with us, folks. We'll see you next week for Monday Night RAW and Night 2 of the WWE 2020 Draft.

Two pop-up powerbomb/spinebusters drive The Fiend through the announcer's desk, but he again beats the ref's count. He locks the Mandible Claw in on Owens.

Though Owens catches The Fiend with a Stunner, The Fiend keeps the Mandible Claw locked in, standing Owens back up for a claw slam and win.

The Fiend defeats Kevin Owens via pinfall.

The lights go out, and when they come back, Alexa Bliss and The Fiend are standing on the stage, staring into one another eyes.

Back from the final break, The Fiend has Kevin Owens nearly out on his feet. Owens avoids Sister Abigail and rocks the former Universal Champion with a trio of superkicks. The cannonball senton hits, and Owens hits a third one. The Fiend rolls to the floor but can't escape Owens, who spikes him with a DDT.

Both men beat the count, leading to Owens hitting a superkick on the apron. A Frog Splash connects (Viva La Raza) on the mat, but The Fiend again stands up.
