5 major roles Kevin Owens could play at Extreme Rules

#3 Owens stuns Shane again

This week's SmackDown Live ended with Roman Reigns scoring a pinfall victory over Dolph Ziggler, despite interference from a string of villains. The final moments of the match saw Shane come in and try to cost Reigns the match. To McMahon's utter shock, Owens came out of nowhere and hit a Stunner on him. As the coast became clear, Reigns put Ziggler down and won the match.

The most important thing here is the kind of pop Owens received after he hit the Stunner on Shane. A finish such as this on Sunday wouldn't be something the crowd would mind. The finish to the match could see Owens come out through the crowd and deliver another Stunner to Shane. A second Stunner on McIntyre for good measure would work too, resulting in the babyfaces picking up the pieces and winning the match.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
