#3 Best: The main event

The participants told a great story, this week!

Let's be honest. As good as AJ Styles and Kevin Owens are, we've seen them far too often, in the ring. There was literally no excitement for a clash between the two men when the match was first announced. The addition of a special guest referee brightened things up, and Owens' hunt for a referee backstage just added to the drama. As great as the match was, the shenanigans between McMahon, Corbin and the two title contenders just made the match feel more entertaining.

It looks increasingly like Kevin Owens will feud with Shane McMahon in the future.

We hope that both AJ Styles and Kevin Owens move on to new programs in the coming weeks. We've just seen too many matches between these two performers.
