9 things WWE subtly told us on RAW: Dominik's epic SummerSlam match revealed, current Champion gets poisoned by female star? (3rd August 2020)

#5. Kevin Owens' interesting redemption arc on RAW

Kevin Owens getting the first of two slaps.

Kevin Owens doesn't have a match at SummerSlam yet, but his role on RAW was quite an important one. He first hosted the KO show with Ruby Riott and that led to the return of Liv Morgan.

Before the KO show, The IIconics offered to be on his show but he said that he already had guests. The IIconics made their presence known anyway and even ended up slapping Owens before he told Ruby Riott and Liv Morgan to help him out.

Owens' promos seemed to indicate just how aware he was of his ruthlessness in the past - something that cost him friendships and more. He's turning into a full-fledged babyface and his conversation with Ric Flair was certainly an interesting one.

He spoke ill of Randy Orton, who Ric Flair corners. Kevin Owens even told Ric Flair to set up a match against Randy Orton - which was confirmed and will happen on RAW next week.

While we don't expect Kevin Owens to win, it's going to be an important match. If Randy Orton doesn't beat Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam, then this is the perfect feud for him.
