As great as Samoa Joe is as a babyface, one can't help but miss the edge and the intensity that he had as a heel. His pairing with Kevin Owens is something that has fans excited but for how long is what one wonders, especially if you consider that he was portrayed as someone who doesn't play well with others at all.

Because the Royal Rumble is an environment where every man is looking out for his best interests, I can absolutely imagine Kevin Owens being the man who eliminates Samoa Joe. And this betrayal, after their short-lived friendship, could be the impetus that Samoa Joe needs to turn heel in the weeks that follow.

To me, a match between Kevin Owens and Samoa Joe at WrestleMania is something that will have a lot of fans very excited indeed. These are two men who are exemplary on the microphone and could certainly do a great job, telling a wonderful story.

Kevin Owens eliminating Samoa Joe could be good business all around, in my opinion.
