Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owens - WWE Championship #1 contenders match

Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens start the feeling out process, but it was Sami Zayn who began to take it right to Owens. KO told Zayn to "calm down" but in competition, Zayn was having none of it.

The two would soon stop holding back and it was still Sami Zayn who had the fire in him. Even when Kevin Owens tried a top-rope senton, Sami had his knees up. He was finally stopped in his tracks when his Helluva kick attempt turned into a superkick to his face and KO landed the frog splash.

Sami Zayn even countered a pop-up powerbomb attempt into an exploder suplex. Soon after, Sami Zayn taunted and provoked AJ Styles, who was ringside. AJ eventually fought back and attacked both Zayn & Owens, causing a DQ.
