A few WWE WrestleMania 37 feuds haven't ended even after the conclusion of The Show of Shows. Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn and Apollo Crews vs. Big E are two such examples.

Crews put his WWE Intercontinental Championship on the line this week against Kevin Owens. Big E made it clear in a backstage segment that he wasn't happy with Owens getting the title match before him.

During Owens vs. Crews, Sami Zayn joined the commentary. Commander Azeez turned out to be a major distraction for Owens as the Intercontinental Champion capitalized on this chance to roll up his opponent and retain the title.

After the match, Kevin Owens suffered the wrath of Azeez. As Owens was temporarily incapacitated, Zayn entered the ring and danced all over him.

Unfortunately for Apollo Crews, Big E spoiled his victory mood later in the night. Crews gave a backstage interview without Azeez by his side, which allowed Big E to ambush him.

Big E will get his Intercontinental Championship shot on the next SmackDown. Will he and Crews be able to top the intensity of their Nigerian Drum Fight? If they are given enough time on next week's show, the two stars could put on their best match so far.

Meanwhile, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn could clash again, either on SmackDown or at WrestleMania Backlash.
