Owens maintained perfect conduct until he faced harassment from Grayson Waller and Austin Theory. The duo not only poured water on Owens and ridiculed him but also threw a bottle at Kevin Patrick. Owens, taking offense at the latter action, retaliated by attacking Waller and Theory.
Waller and Theory targeted Owens in retaliation for a prior incident on SmackDown, where Owens had confronted and knocked them down backstage during a previous episode.
Following Owens’ assault, Nick Aldis found himself with no alternative but to suspend Owens. Additionally, there is uncertainty regarding the duration of Owens’ suspension. Where does this storyline lead?
