► Why did Kevin Owens miss SmackDown?
Our colleague Sean Ross Sapp over at Fightful Paywall reports that this was due to Veteran fighter had a travel nightmare, This most recent SmackDown was at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois. This is not the first time this has happened to a superstar. It is interesting to note that the company was filming two upcoming shows.
« Kevin Owens was supposed to appear in a double taping of SmackDown, but he didn’t because he WWE told us it was a ‘nightmare travel situation’, As a result, Owens had to be written out of the show and major production and writing changes were made. Originally, Owens was supposed to go face-to-face with Bloodline to present the John Cena video.”
