5 superstars who could replace Kevin Owens in the Mixed Match Challenge

#4 Heath Slater

Much like Tyler Breeze, its definitely been a while since we saw Heath Slater compete in a WWE ring. I mean, during the past few months, Breeze at least had the opportunity to challenge for the NXT North American Championship in a recent NXT Live Event, whereas, Heath Slater hasn't been doing much since getting drafted over to Monday Night Raw.

All Slater asks for is an opportunity to shine on the big stage, and with Kevin Owens out injured, having 'The One Man Band' team up with Natalya will be absolutely perfect, as not only does it provide Slater with a big stage to compete on, but it also helps Nattie in a big way.
