The original plans for Kevin Owens on the road to WrestleMania 35 were for him to return from his injury, a humbled and changed man. A bunch of Youtube videos showed him hanging out with his son and eating junk food, something that's against Daniel Bryan's principles. The rise of KofiMania forced WWE to change long-term plans and replace Owens with Kofi.
What if WWE decides to execute its original plan for Owens at Money In The Bank? Although the circumstances are completely different here, with Owens back to being a dastardly heel, we just might see him take the title from Kofi here. As much as fans love Kofi Kingston and The New Day, the ratings haven't shown that. Although Kofi can't be fully blamed for the decline, WWE might decide to try and put the title on Owens to see whether the rating meter moves up.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
