The Kevin Owens and Samoa Joe vs Seth Rollins & AoP storyline has captured a lot of interest and for good reason. Owens and Joe are now in a top babyface spot on RAW and in a six-man tag team match - they had the returning Big Show partner up with them to even the odds.

It ended in a DQ win for them and while The Big Show is expected to join the six-man "Fist Fight" match on RAW this coming episode, nothing is certain as to whether he's the long-term plan.

In all likeliness, he isn't (and we'll get to that later) and the idea is reportedly to get Rey Mysterio into that third spot, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. They stated that the MSG United States title loss to Andrade was to transition him into the storyline and it could happen sooner than later.

We hope this is true because it's a great spot for him to be in and it would add more interest to the story.
