5 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Nov 3 - Results & Review)

2. Where Is This Even Going?

Yours truly still has no clue what the purpose of Kevin Owens feuding with Austin Theory and Grayson Waller is. It's a time-killing exercise for KO, which doesn't do much to make the heels look all that important. Also, Kev left a tag-team spot on Raw to be a singles on SmackDown and...work against tag-teams?

That doesn't make any sense.

Sure, the actual match between Owens and Theory was solid enough, but this story just ain't interesting whatsoever. Austin and Grayson were building something nifty before KO rolled in from Raw all of a sudden and started sparking both out with one punch. Is handily beating them really going to get the pair over?

Questions must be asked about what this does for Kevin too. He doesn't need to be slumming it with tags for no reason. The guy's a credible top star, and his leap across major brands will look anything but major if he doesn't get a proper story soon.
