5. Sami Zayn Wins Clean

The biggest WTF Moment of the night came when Sami Zayn's music hit. Why? Because Kevin Owens was in the ring and ready for a fight.

That's right, we got KO vs. The Underdog From The Underground less than two weeks before their first huge meeting at a WWE main roster pay per view.

Needless to say it wasn't a match of the year contender, although it was still arguably the best match of the night. The pair were clearly told to hold things back a bit and not give too much away ahead of their first meeting on the big stage.

Rather shockingly, instead of ending in a double DQ like so matches in modern day WWE do, Sami Zayn picked up a squeaky clean win following a Helluva Boot.

So little to beat Owens... will this have any bearing on their meeting at Payback? Probably not. Still a shock that it was so clean anyway...

Sami's impeccable Blue Thunder Bomb in this match... spot of the night!
