2. All A Bit Directionless

"All over the place".

That could sum up Kevin Owens' current predicament too. If this is why KO was suddenly ripped away from good pal Sami Zayn and moved from Raw to SmackDown, then WWE shouldn't have bothered. The dude's drifting around aimlessly backstage picking fights with tag-teams, for crying out loud.

It's rather puzzling, not least because Kev isn't supposed to be a tag star anymore. The way he ate a diss from Logan Paul then sparkled out Austin Theory and Grayson Waller with one punch felt too random to mean much. Also, and this shouldn't be overlooked, it did nothing for Theory and Waller as a unit.

Remember this if WWE books a two-on-one kicking from the heels soon. Why should you care about that when they looked like utter goofs who got knocked out with the same fist? The whole segment came across as pure filler, and that's not on when KO is involved.
