Baron Corbin, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn confronted Universal Champion Seth Rollins
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Last Friday was, somewhat surprisingly, a pretty good night for Seth Rollins. Tonight is shaping up to be a different story. The Universal Champion hadn’t gotten two minutes into Raw before Baron Corbin — his once and future challenger at WWE Stomping Grounds — surfaced to declare that, in light of his beef with John Cone at Super ShowDown, he’d somehow finagled a Special Guest Referee stipulation for their upcoming title match, with Corbin getting to pick the zebra himself. (We say again: The man is good at what he does.) Still, that’s not the worst outcome in the world for The Beastslayer, right? After all, nobody likes Corbin, so it’s unlikely he’d be able to corral anybody to his cause.
Not so fast. Corbin had not one but two allies waiting in the wings: Sami Zayn and SmackDown LIVE Wild Card Kevin Owens, both of whom declared their support for “San Jose’s Favorite Son,” declaring him a better fit for the title than the Brock Lesnar-obsessed Rollins. Owens also took issue with The Beastslayer’s treatment of Zayn, leading to a spur-of-the-moment decision between KO and Rollins to battle in the main event.
