3 biggest things WWE cleverly told us SmackDown Live this week (23 April 2019)

#1 A rivalry between Kofi Kingston and Kevin Owens will be classic

Owens shocked everyone

Kevin Owens surprised everyone this week when he turned on the current WWE Champion Kofi Kingston. The former Universal Champion joined the New Day last week, but the betrayal happened in just one week. Kingston was scheduled to face Shinsuke Nakamura, but the bout ended in a disqualification after Rusev interfered. A brawl took place inside the squared circle before Owens started assaulting Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods.

It was not the first time Owens turned on his partner as he did it a couple of times in the past. Besides Kingston, Sami Zayn and Chris Jericho were the victims of his betrayal. Since Owens returned as a face, many fans speculated a heel turn for the Prized Fighter. Owens has been a heel in most of his career, and he might have another stellar run as a heel.

With Daniel Bryan absent from the blue brand after the Show of Shows, Owens could be an ideal candidate to fill his void. Kingston, who is currently a fan favourite, could offer a remarkable rivalry with the Prized Fighter. Moreover, it is a fresh rivalry which could gravitate the attention of the fans. Considering the dexterity of the two men in the squared circle, they could tear the house down at Money in the Bank next month.
