In Ring Segment: Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens
Owens says what the people are looking at is the future of the WWE. Not a bunch of old people like on Raw 25. Zayn bounces around the ring and introduces Kevin Owens. Owens goes down the list of all the messed up things Shane McMahon has done to them and how they managed to persevere. The only thing that has been proven so far is that they can beat AJ Styles on Sunday to become the co-WWE Champions. Zayn adds that after they take Styles’ title they are going to hurt Styles. Owens and Zayn try to start a “Yep!” chant. Styles’ music hits and he walks out on the stage. Styles starts a nope chant as he explains why Owens and Zayn can’t beat him.
Styles says Owens and Zayn may have the advantage but they are facing someone who is phenomenal. Owens says Styles may be phenomenal but he is also predictable. They knew he would come out here. Zayn shows footage of Styles losing it and suggesting the handicap match. Styles tried to backtrack his way out of it. Daniel Bryan held Styles to his word. Even though Bryan isn’t here with Styles stand by what he said last week. Footage is shown of Styles saying he would fight Owens and Zayn in single matches in the same night. Owens challenges Styles to face him, then Zayn right after. Daniel Bryan comes out and says he has the utmost faith in Styles being able to win on Sunday. Styles tells Bryan that he doesn’t need his help and he has no idea if Bryan is working with Owens and Zayn. Styles agrees to face Owens and Zayn tonight.
He's a fighting champion, and he's out to prove it on #SDLive as @AJStylesOrg has agreed to face @FightOwensFight & @SamiZayn in back-to-back matches TONIGHT! pic.twitter.com/ohDqUC4hZu
