5 Things WWE secretly told us on SmackDown tonight

Tonight's edition of SmackDown was pretty mediocre in my opinion. There were some good segments, but most of them failed to garner any major attention from the fans, apart from the ending segment may be.

The heel turn of Kevin Owens at the end of the show was easily the biggest moment of the night. On one hand, fans were heartbroken to see Owens beat up their champ, Kofi Kingston, but on the other hand, everyone was excited to see Owens back to his best, as he laid down a ruthless beating in a way only he can.

Throughout the night, there were quite a few things that WWE secretly told us on SmackDown. So without further adieu, let's take a look at them.

#5 Becky will be a fighting champion

Becky will be pulling double duty at Money in the Bank!

In one of my previous articles, I discussed how having both the titles can be a problem for Becky Lynch as it would be tough for her to have two matches on every PPV.

WWE is certainly looking to build her as The Man to beat and a fighting champion, as she announced in a backstage segment that she will be facing Charlotte at Money in the Bank for the SmackDown Women's Championship, while also defending her RAW Women's Title against Lacey Evans on the same night.

While it'd be interesting to see her defend both her titles on the same night, I'm not sure how long can she possibly do it. The last thing WWE would want is her being out with an injury due to excessive workload.

#4 Shane McMahon is one of the biggest heels on the main roster

It's so amazing to see Shane portray such a different character now!

Shane McMahon was a huge babyface not so long ago. But his feud with The Miz has turned him into a hated yet amazing heel now.

When the rumors of him turning heel were going on, many had the doubt of whether the fan-lovrf McMahon would be able to garner heat from the WWE Universe or not, but the way he has been carrying himself these days, he is already one of the biggest heels in WWE. There's just something in him that is making us hate him, and this proves he's doing a great job as the bad guy.

#3 Finn Balor is the workhorse!

The Intercontinental Championship has always been referred to as the championship of a workhorse! There are many Superstars on the main roster who can be referred to as workhorses, as their dedication and willingness to compete and become better is way above others.

One of those superstars is our current and well-deserving Intercontinental Champion, Finn Balor. Ever since winning the title, Finn has constantly been a fighting champion, defending his title on more occasions than Lesnar defended his Universal Title in his second run.

It's great to have a champion who actually goes that extra mile to prove his worth of why he is the guy to beat. I do hope we get to see Balor become a world champion on SmackDown, sometime in the future.

#2 Kairi Sane and Asuka are soon going to be the Women's Tag Champs

These two are going to rule the Women's Tag Team division!

No disrespect for the IIconics, but those two are not the ones who can make the Women's Tag Team division to be taken seriously by the fans. They are amazing at what they do, and that is to make fans hate them, but with the Tag Team Championship still being very new, the titles need proper champions.

Ever since winning the Titles at WrestleMania 35, the IIconics have constantly been losing matches against a number of opponents. This week, Peyton Royce lost to Kairi Sane in her match on SmackDown. All and all, it looks like the IIconics' days as the Tag Team champs are limited. No one is ready for Kairi Sane and Asuka!

#1 Kevin Owens as a heel is "Best for Business"

The whole Kevin Owens-New Day feel-good storyline was something very new for fans. Considering the ruthless heel he once was, fans were predicting Owens to turn on the New Day and challenge Kofi for the WWE Championship.

And the same is exactly what happened, as Owens turned on his so-called team in the main event of SmackDown, giving another lesson to everyone that KO isn't the guy one should trust. He's not a trustworthy guy in the least, and Kofi would now agree to this for sure.

Kevin's return as a face was weird as he is a natural heel and no matter how good he portrays himself, fans would always want him to turn heel and ruthlessly beat-up his opponent. A heel KO is best for business. Other than Lars Sullivan and Randy Orton, I don't see anyone else stepping up to challenge the WWE Champion Kofi Kingston for his first title defense.

Can Owens pull out a shocker and defeat Kofi to become the new WWE Champion? Sound off your thoughts in the comments section below!
