WWE SmackDown: 5 biggest surprises from the Superstar Shake-up episode (April 16, 2019)

#3 The Prizefighter’s Day

Kevin Owens opened up the show with a loud pop as he made his way to host the Kevin Owens Show in the middle of the ring.

Owens talked about the Superstar Shake-Up before introducing his guest, WWE Champion Kofi Kingston.

The Prizefighter congratulated Kingston on his win, drawing a huge ovation from the fans. Kingston thanked Owens and discussed what the moment meant to him. The crowd, again, erupted as Owens shifted his attention to Big E's absence.

Owens then went on to announce a tag team match for The New Day for later in the night and asked if he could have the honor of filling Big E’s spot in the most famous team in WWE.

In a surprising move, The New Day accepted the man who had just taken Kofi’s spot away at Fastlane a couple of months ago, and thus, ‘Big O’ became a part of The New Day in Big E’s absence.

Whether Owens genuinely wants to be a part of the team, or whether he has some other intentions, will surely be revealed in the weeks to come.
