3. No Room For KO, Sami

Give some credit to WWE writers for having enough good sense to stick Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens on Raw Monday night, begging for jobs since they were banished from SmackDown after losing at WrestleMania.

Instead of being given a jog together, Sami and KO were forced to battle each other for a lone spot left on the roster. Despite both men really putting it out there, none of them would win, resulting in both losing an opportunity to make the roster.

It’ll be interesting to see how they pay off the lack of employment to both Sami and Kevin, though it won’t be as GM Kurt Angle explained it: TNA is hiring.
