Kevin Owens comments on attacking Cody Rhodes at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event
SmackDown star Kevin Owens recently commented on his attack on Cody Rhodes at Saturday Night's Main Event.
Owens hit Rhodes with a Stunner during the match, but referee Charles Robinson was inadvertently knocked out of the ring, and there was no one to make the cover. Referee Eddie Orengo rushed the ring but got hit with a Cody Cutter by accident. The challenger tried to use a steel chair, but the champion took it away from him and connected with a Cross Rhodes on top of the steel chair for the pinfall victory.
Kevin Owens snapped after the match and brutally attacked Cody Rhodes. The 40-year-old took to social media following Saturday Night's Main Event and attempted to justify his actions. The former champion claimed that the company's referees were incompetent and Rhodes deserved to be hit with the Package Piledriver.
"*EXCLUSIVE: After getting screwed out of becoming the Undisputed WWE Champion by incompetent referees, Kevin Owens justifiably gets retribution on The American Person with an often imitated, never truly duplicated, PACKAGE PILEDRIVER just moments after Saturday Night’s Main Event goes off the air to send everyone home happy. #SNME."

Owens also took out Randy Orton with a Piledriver last month, and The Viper still has not returned to SmackDown. Only time will tell what WWE has planned for the storyline moving forward on the blue brand.
