#1 Where would Roman Reigns be without Kevin Owens on WWE SmackDown?

Drew McIntyre had a phenomenal 2020 on WWE RAW. While he earned the Superstar of the Year award from both WWE and SK Wrestling, a lot of credit for his success is given to Randy Orton. McIntyre had a great rivalry with Orton, who helped "The Scottish Psychopath" become the face of the red brand.

Likewise, Roman Reigns had a great second half of 2020. But a lot of the praise he’s getting from the WWE Universe is associated with Jey Uso and Kevin Owens.

"The Prizefighter" has put his body on the line week after week to give Reigns one of the best feuds of his career. This past week on WWE SmackDown, Owens was thrown off a ledge by the Universal Champion, and he crashed through a table. Here, Reigns looked like an unstoppable villain.

While "KO" might not win the Universal Championship from Reigns anytime soon, one wonders where "The Tribal Chief" would be without this rivalry. While Uso helped develop Reigns’ new character, "The KO Show" has upped the overall grade of both Reigns' heel run and WWE SmackDown itself.
