The rivalry between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn and The Bloodline continued even after they defeated The Usos for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania 39.
Last week on SmackDown, a new Superstar joined the fight against The Bloodline. Matt Riddle came out to save Owens from getting seriously injured at the hands of Solo Sikoa. This set up a match between the two men.
However, due to travel issues, Riddle and Sami weren't at the arena throughout the show. This meant that Owens had to go into this match alone.

Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
