WWE SmackDown Flops and Hits: Big E and Finn Balor stun Roman Reigns and The Usos, Big mistake with Kevin Owens (17th September, 2021)

#4 Flop on WWE SmackDown: Kevin Owens forced into another underwhelming segment

Kevin Owens is arguably the most charismatic superstar on WWE SmackDown. Unfortunately, his current booking isn’t doing justice to his talents. He is involved in a feud with Happy Corbin, and both superstars were scheduled to face each other in a singles match. The last time they met, Corbin’s cheap shot also allowed his guest Logan Paul to attack Owens inside the ring.

KO said that he defied his instinct to help Corbin when the latter was going through a financial crisis. He intended to teach the Mayor of Jackpot City a lesson, but the latter had other plans.

Right before their match on WWE SmackDown, Corbin attacked Owens, and subsequently, their match was canceled. While we expect them to face off sooner rather than later, there are certainly better ways in which the creative cream could have booked this segment.

Corbin could have disqualified himself from attacking his opponent ruthlessly while they were engaged in a bout instead of an illegal attack before their match. This would have added to Owens's rage while simultaneously adding more to Corbin's credibility.

Kevin Owens deserves to be involved in top feuds, and if he is going to be booked in this storyline on WWE SmackDown, he at least deserves a little more effort from the writers.
