Kevin Owens has been portrayed as the common man battling his evil boss, something many can relate to. There have been comparisons made to Steve Austin and Dusty Rhodes and even CM Punk, after the pipe bomb that Kevin Owens cut on SmackDown recently. Maybe the need of the hour is to have a strong babyface on either RAW or SmackDown Live, a man that the audience can relate to or gravitate towards in the days to follow.

So, Kevin Owens could certainly go over clean in the match and this is a decision that will make a lot of people very happy. Alternately, he could also have parties like Drew McIntyre and Elias show up, but fight them off to realize his destiny. Many believe that Kevin Owens should have been a much bigger star than he is right now and this could be his way to ascend to the top of the ladder, in a lot of ways.
Also, Shane McMahon could take some time off and return in a repackaged avatar to cause chaos once again. That may be just what his character needs at this particular point in time.
