3 reasons why Cody Rhodes might face Kevin Owens at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames

Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens might have a bloody brawl at the upcoming WWE Survivor Series: WarGames PLE on November 30. If it happens this would be their first bout with Owens as a heel.

The two had a match at Bash in Berlin PLE on August 31 which Rhodes won. However, that was a match Rhodes had asked KO to be part of. The Prizefighter wasn't even accepting the challenge and Rhodes had to pester him for it.

However, their probable face-off at Survivor Series would be a high-octane match which Cody would challenge KO for. The American Nightmare would look to exact revenge against Owens for not just attacking him after Bad Blood, but also seriously injuring Randy Orton last week on SmackDown after Owens delivered the banned Piledriver to The Viper.

This article will discuss three reasons why Cody Rhodes will challenge Kevin Owens for a match at Survivor Series: PLE.

#1. Cody Rhodes shall take revenge for Randy Orton against Kevin Owens

Rhodes knows that Orton feuded with Kevin Owens because of him. He understands that it was primarily because of him that The Viper had hit KO, during Cody and KO's face-off on SmackDown after Bad Blood.

While the veteran didn't have any personal animosity with KO, it was because of the Rhodes and Owens feud that he got dragged into it. The American Nightmare also knows that it was because of his tussle with KO that Randy Orton is now seriously hurt.

The Undisputed WWE Champion could now seek revenge for his friend. Cody Rhodes can call Kevin Owens on SmackDown tonight, and challenge him to a match at WWE Survivor Series.

#2. Cody Rhodes would look to teach Kevin Owens a lesson

The WWE Champion shall look to end the KO story once and for all. The Prizefighter attacked Rhodes after Bad Blood PLE. It was believed that he didn't like Rhodes aligning with Roman Reigns for the tag team match against Solo Sikoa on that night.

Moreover, the former WWE Universal Champion has been moving mindlessly the last few days. He started by attacking Rhodes and then turned to Randy Orton. The American Nightmare would look to bring him back to his senses and teach him a lesson at Survivor Series: WarGames PLE.

#3. Cody Rhodes doesn't have any other opponent to work with apart from Kevin Owens

Cody Rhodes doesn't have any other top-class opponent to work with at the moment apart from Kevin Owens. Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa are focused on the Bloodline saga, and so are The Usos.

AJ Styles and Randy Orton are currently out of action due to injuries, while Shinsuke Nakamura also hasn't been seen since April 22, 2024. Kevin Owens remains the only option for Cody Rhodes from the SmackDown roster.

Even though there is little possibility of Cody Rhodes losing his Undisputed WWE Championship at Survivor Series, he would still put the title on the line against Owens.

It only remains to be seen when Randy Orton will return to WWE, and how will he go about Kevin Owens.
