Shane McMahon has been making Kevin Owens' life hell over the past few weeks and finally this week on SmackDown Live he had the chance to get even with him by pinning Elias for the 24/7 Championship.

Owens attacked Elias and hit him with a Stunner but then walked away and allowed Drake Maverick to pin him and take away his Championship. It is unknown as to why Owens wouldn't think to pin Elias and then have something to hold over McMahon when he returns next week, but it could be argued that Owens didn't want to be watching his back all the time and is a much higher level than anyone who had previously won the title.

The way that the segment played out between Owens and Elias, WWE made their audience believe that Owens could be looking to pin Elias so that he had the Championship, but even if he did win the title then The Best in the World would find a way to take the Championship back away next week, so it's easy to see why he didn't decide to cash in on the opportunity.

That being said, even if Owens only held the Championship for a week, it would have been an interesting week since Owens would be a hard Champion to dethrone.
