Sami
Zayn
vs.
Kevin
Owens
Sami
Zayn
had
a
rough
patch
at
the
end
of
2022
as
he
was
blamed
for
the
loss
that
he
and
Roman
Reigns
suffered
at
the
hands
of
John
Cena
and
Kevin
Owens
on
the
December
30
edition
of
SmackDown.
However,
Paul
Heyman,
The
Wiseman
of
The
Bloodline
made
a
way
for
Sami
to
make
up
for
his
mistakes
which
was
also
approved
by
The
Head
of
the
Table.
As
a
result,
Sami
has
been
put
in
a
must-win
situation
when
he
takes
on
Kevin
Owens
in
one
of
the
most
important
matches
of
his
career.
Speculations
are
high
that
there
will
be
consequences
if
he
fails
to
utilize
this
opportunity.
Prior
to
tonight’s
episode,
Owens
and
Zayn
last
wrestled
in
a
one-on-one
match
on
the
July
2,
2021,
episode
of
SmackDown
with
a
Last
Man
Standing
Match
stipulation
attached
to
it.
It
ended
a
year-long
rivalry
between
the
two
while
the
latest
upcoming
match
could
re-form
their
alliance.
Intercontinental
Championship
Match
There
will
be
a
monster
waiting
in
the
path
of
Intercontinental
Champion
GUNTHER
on
Smackdown.
For
the
first
time
since
his
return
to
WWE
in
September,
Braun
Strowman
is
coming
for
a
championship
and
it’s
the
mid-card
title
of
the
blue
brand.
After
weeks
of
tormenting
Ricochet
and
Strowman,
the
latter
will
be
unleashed
against
GUNTHER
for
the
Intercontinental
Championship
on
tonight’s
episode
which
marks
their
first
singles
encounter
on
WWE
TV.
GUNTHER
is
currently
in
his
first
title
reign
on
the
WWE
main
roster
which
he
won
by
defeating
Ricochet
in
the
fall
of
2022.
As
for
Strowman,
he
previously
held
the
Intercontinental
Championship
once
in
early
2020,
before
losing
it
to
Sami
Zayn
at
that
year’s
Elimination
Chamber
Premium
Live
Event.
New
opponents
for
Drew
McIntyre-Sheamus?
An
instant
classic
was
produced
in
last
week’s
WWE
Smackdown
main
event
capacity
where
the
red-hot
rivalry
between
Sheamus
&
Drew
McIntyre
and
Jimmy
&
Jey
Uso
of
The
Bloodline
culminated
in
an
Undisputed
WWE
Tag
Team
Championship
Match.
McIntyre
was
thrown
over
the
commentary
table
as
the
action
spilled
outside
while
The
Usos
used
the
numbers’ game
and
cheated
their
way
in
order
to
pin
Sheamus
and
secure
the
win.
The
night
was
yet
to
be
over
for
the
challengers
though.
After
The
Usos
were
gone,
McIntyre
and
Sheamus
were
attacked
by
The
Viking
Raiders.
Erik
and
Ivar
sent
them
shoulder-first
into
the
ring
posts
before
planting
both
of
them
with
Ragnaroks,
a
modified
double
powerbomb
version.
That
being
said,
it’s
evident
that
the
two
UK
natives
will
come
for
retribution
on
Smackdown
as
the
audience
can
expect
to
be
treated
with
a
physical
and
intense
rivalry
set
for
the
coming
weeks.
