#2 Mistake WWE made: Roman Reigns vs. Kevin Owens is apparently still not over

Universal Champion Roman Reigns and Kevin Owens had an amazing Last Man Standing match at WWE Royal Rumble 2021. In fact, all of their recent encounters have been a treat to watch. However, all good things must come to an end, especially since Roman Reigns has defeated KO on three occasions now.

This week on SmackDown, the 2021 men's Royal Rumble winner Edge confronted Universal Champion Roman Reigns, who demanded The Rated-R Superstar to acknowledge him and choose to face him at WrestleMania 37. However, Kevin Owens appeared out of nowhere and delivered a Stunner to The Tribal Chief.

Now, this segment would have been great if we had already not seen these two take on each other multiple times in the last few months. There was no need to further drag this feud as there are several other WWE Superstars on SmackDown who could have a mini-feud with Reigns ahead of WrestleMania.


#2 WWE got right: The Intercontinental Championship match on SmackDown

This week on WWE SmackDown, Intercontinental Champion Big E defended his title in a triple-threat match against Sami Zayn and Apollo Crews. The match was great and helped all three Superstars involved to further improve their characters. In the end, Big E emerged victorious, successfully defending his title.

Following the match, there was a small tease of Apollo Crews turning heel and attacking Big E, but that did not happen. However, that is sure to happen in the coming weeks and a heel turn could really revive the career of Apollo Crews on SmackDown.
