Kevin Owens or Sami Zayn could return on Sunday night
Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens have been sidelined for the best part of a year because of Bobby Lashley; the Intercontinental Champion put Zayn on the treatment table back at Money in the Bank last year before he targetted Kevin Owens and was the storyline reason why he was forced to undergo double knee surgery.

The rumor now is that Owens could return to WWE as a babyface, which means that he's the most likely to come out and level the odds here in the match between his longtime friend and rival and someone who has cost him a lot of in-ring time.
Balor and Owens had a fantastic feud in NXT, so it would be interesting to see if they could reach the same hype as a team, of course, don't rule out a Sami Zayn return either since Zayn also has a problem with Lashley and is reportedly ready to return to TV.
