It was a busy evening for WWE’s Kevin Owens, who did himself no favors when he crashed the deliberate WWE Ladies’s Tag Group Championships match between Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill and Meta-4’s Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson. Owens was advised to not come to SmackDown after his attack on Cody Rhodes after Bad Blood, and he wished to handle what occurred, however his microphone was reduce off and then chaos broke out when Rhodes went to confront Owens within the ring.
Randy Orton then got here out to attempt to reign in a livid Rhodes, and Orton then headed into the ring to attempt to pull again Owens, however Owens hit him within the face with a again elbow strike. It’s not clear if Owens knew he attacked Orton, however what was clear is when Orton turned Owens round and clocked him within the face with a forearm, knocking Owens to the mat. That led to a different altercation later within the evening within the car parking zone, the place Owens was discovered stomping on a battered Orton subsequent to a truck, and you can watch that fight right here.

Crashing the Social gathering
Owens bumped into the ring as Legend and Jackson have been heading to the ring for his or her match, and he quickly grabbed a microphone. “I’m very sorry to interrupt however I used to be particularly advised to not come right here tonight. Persons are asking why I turned on Cody Rhodes, however Cody Rhodes…” Owens’ microphone was reduce off at this level, and he then moved to the commentary space and picked up a headset to complete what he was saying. Owens mentioned, “Cody Rhodes turned on me. Are you kidding, I’m within the unsuitable for this?”
Then Rhodes got here out and confronted Owens, however safety separated them as Nick Aldis got here out. Then Randy Orton got here out and pulled Rhodes again earlier than going into the ring to handle Owens. Then they bought right into a pushing match after which Orton grabbed Owens however Owens hit Orton with a again elbow. Orton then turned Owens round and struck him the face with a forearm, beautiful Owens.
A Battle within the Parking Lot
Owens was in shock as he walked across the ring, and Orton was distraught by what occurred as nicely. Owens then walked by the group and left, and later we catch as much as Rhodes and Orton, with Orton telling Rhodes to depart in his bus and let him patch issues up with Owens. Orton mentioned he had it dealt with and that everybody wanted to have cool heads, however as we see later, that’s not how issues went in any respect.
That’s as a result of backstage later within the evening Nick Aldis bought safety to go pull Owens off of Orton, as Owens was stomping on Orton and attacking him on the bottom. Owens could possibly be heard saying “So now you’re going to select sides”, after which he left the sector as he did after the earlier assault. You can watch that play out right here.
So now Owens has attacked each Rhodes and Orton, although he may not have meant to assault Orton. Both means, he’s attacked each of them now, so any tether of friendship is likely to be gone for the foreseeable future.
