7. No KO
Where was Intercontinental Champion Kevin Owens when you needed him? Every other champion in WWE was featured Monday night, but IC champ Owens was merely referred to briefly, leaving us to wonder why he wasnt on the show. Owens has proven himself a capable champ and valuable commodity, so any length of absence from WWE programming will be felt. (Its likely that hell reappear as soon as Tuesday night at the Smackdown tapings.) Hes solid on the microphone and in the ring, and many feel he will hold the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at some point in the future. Hopefully for WWEs sake, it was just a brief absence and well see him again by next week.
