For months, Kevin Owens has unsuccessfully battled Seth Rollins, failing to consistently get the upper hand on the Monday Night Messiah and his disciples. In recent weeks, Rollins and his cronies have managed to get the upper hand on the Street Profits, forcing them into a do-or-die situation with their Raw Tag Team Championship match Monday night.

Everything came together when the match broke down, with AOP looking to interfere and getting tossed by the referee. They hopped up on the apron to protest, which allowed Owens to slide into the ring and hit a Stunner on Rollins. That in turn allowed Montez Ford to nail a frogsplash for the upset victory, as the Profits captured tag team gold.

Just like that, the Street Profits got the smoke, KO got revenge, and Rollins got a reason to lose his mind.
