Here's some more subtle brilliance from the desk of one Kevin Owens.

After throwing Kofi Kingston into the barrier, Owens kicked away a New Day t-shirt (or maybe it was a towel) from beneath his feet in disgust. His contempt for Kofi's WWE Title reign came out in that one movement, and it's why KO will be such a great heel challenger for Kingston's beloved babyface reign.

The bully-boy tendencies of Owens came to the fore here, and it was like watching a master at work.
