#3 Kevin Owens and Big E defeated Apollo Crews and Sami Zayn on WWE SmackDown

Big E and Kevin Owens teamed up to take on Sami Zayn and Intercontinental Champion Apollo Crews on this week’s WWE SmackDown.

Owens and Crews kicked off the action before Big E tagged himself into the match. Big E was on a roll early before he missed a Spear and crashed into the ringpost.

KO and Zayn came into the ring and had a good exchange soon after. The action kept ticking as all four men delivered some of their finest moves. Big E and Crews fought outside the ring while KO took control of the action inside. He dropped Zayn with a Stunner and pinned him to pick up the victory for his team.

After the match, Crews challenged Big E and KO to fight him and Commander Azeez in a tag team match next week.

WWE needs to book a couple of more matches between Zayn and Owens before ending their rivalry. Big E has once again become a part of this storyline after Aleister Black’s sudden release. It will be interesting to see what the SmackDown creative has in store for him now.

It’s also unclear who the next challenger for Crews’s title will be. However, the prospect of seeing Azeez in the SmackDown ring is exciting.
