3 Reasons why Kevin Owens should return to RAW and 3 reasons why he should come back to SmackDown Live

#5 Return to SmackDown Live: Lack of baby faces

SmackDown Live needs him

While his return was hyped only on RAW, what if this is just another trick of the McMahons to create the shock factor when Owens shows up on SmackDown? Owens is surely set to work as a fan favorite upon his return to the company. With Daniel Bryan and Rusev turning heel and Mustafa Ali out of action, bringing Owens back to SmackDown seems to be the most logical move at the moment.

Owens is seemingly one of the best on the mic and can be used to elevate any feud. Owens returning would add a new dimension to the SD Live roster, allowing creatives to build-up more feuds for the future. Owens can be a part of various intriguing storylines.

Consider Owens taking up the fight to Samoa Joe; those two are amazingly talented wrestlers with similar ring skills and over-the-top mic work. Just the name of the two wrestlers involved will be enough to sell the match out. This is the impact Owens can have on the blue brand.

#4 Return to RAW: To feud with Bobby Lashley

The WWE Universe will surely cheer for this

There have been many injury angles in the WWE. Some of these saw Matt Hardy return at WrestleMania 24 to cost MVP, the guy who took him out with an injury (in kayfabe), the MITB contract win. Also, Sami Zayn returned at the Royal Rumble 2016 PPV and eliminated his best friend turned bitter rival, the focus of this article, Kevin Owens.

So, it does make sense that Owens returns to the red brand to take out the competitor who costed him months of his career: Bobby Lashley.

The Almighty Bobby Lashley is set to defend his Intercontinental Title in a Handicap Match, with his hype man joining forces with him in an attempt to defeat Finn Balor. The referee can be knocked out in the match, which will set the stage for Kevin Owens returning to takeout Lio Rush with a running clothesline on the outside, before flooring Lashley with an apron powerbomb.

Balor would follow with a Coup de Grace for the title win. This will not only allow someone like Mojo Rawley or Elias to get a chance to contend for the IC Title at WrestleMania, but would be the perfect way to set up the Owens/Lashley program for WrestleMania.

A tag team match at Fastlane featuring the team of Balor and Owens going up against Lashley and Rush would serve as the catalyst to this feud, which Owens is bound to win. Who knows, maybe Sami Zayn can return at WrestleMania to even the numbers up for Kevin, leading to both men finally joining the tag team division of the red brand post-WrestleMania.
