Kevin Owens kicked off SmackDown Live and told us that SummerSlam was a night that he'll remember forever, mostly because his family was in the crowd and watched him beat the so-called 'Best in the World'.
He told us that he was excited for the King of the Ring tournament, something that he had grown up watching and would be participating in, starting next week.
Shane McMahon came out and Owens couldn't believe the interruption. The crowd chanted expletives at Shane and he expertly deflected it before Owens made fun of the SmackDown Live comissioner, who was furious. He fined Owens $100,000 for attacking Elias who was technically a referee for the match.
