YIKES!

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn wept tears of very-real joy after winning the Undisputed Tag-Team Titles from The Usos in the main event spot of 'Mania's opening night. People were over the moon to see real-life pals seize the moment, and everyone agreed that Sami getting some revenge on The Bloodline was a great call.

WWE's follow-on has been fairly tepid though, admittedly. KO and Sami have kicked around with the belts without doing a great deal, and now everyone's worried Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa will take those straps from them in Saudi; this is actually a big night for the faces, because they previously refused to wrestle on these cards for personal and political reasons.

Sticking two fingers up at a WrestleMania headliner that just happened would be risky business from WWE. Also, and this is worth saying, Roman doesn't need anymore titles. Hold that thought for now, and consider this horror...
