Kevin Owens and Daniel Bryan appeared to form a brand new tag-team on Friday's episode of WWE SmackDown.

It was KO who pitched that he and Bryan start teaming together on the blue brand. Before that, Daniel (who was a guest on 'The KO Show' talking heads segment) said that his number one wish on SmackDown was to see the Intercontinental Title be defended every single week.

A potentially-excellent feud with Sami Zayn seems to have been iced for now...unless this is WWE's way of adding Owens to the mix. Nobody should count out the thought that KO might be toying with Bryan to sucker him in before he and Sami then reunite.

For now though, Bryan and Owens are a new tag-team. They were victorious in their first match together - The 'eKO-Friendly Warriors' (a working title created solely for this news piece, don't panic) teamed with The Street Profits to defeat Dolph Ziggler, Robert Roode, Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura in a fun eight-man tag bout.

Is this the start of something special for Owens and Bryan, or is it part of a larger story also involving Zayn? You decide.
