Both Owens and Ziggler had a good rivalry when Owens was chasing Ambrose’s IC title before Royal Rumble and the duo put on some good matches during the feud. This will be the perfect chance to rekindle their rivalry and this time, it should be a temporary feud for Fastlane.
Owens winning the title and defending it against either Sami Zayn or Neville at Wrestlemania would be a fitting storyline as Owens has a heated rivalry against both those next gen stars.
