After seeing some reports about the reason that Kevin Owens turned on the New Day this past week on Smackdown I will still admit that it doesn't make sense. I understand that Daniel Bryan sustained an injury and was suppose to be Kofi's first challenger, but to say Kevin Owens was the only person Kofi could've fought is total crap. Looking at the Smackdown Live roster one name jumps out at me from Kofi's past that being Randy Orton who would've been a very interesting opponent for the new champion.
For any fans not aware of Orton & Kofi's past just do a google search and you will find stories about their old feud from 2009 that I won't go deep into now. Either way though letting Kofi & Orton feud would've allowed Kevin to stay a baby face and hold off on having him turn on the New Day for a few months instead of rushing into it so quickly. This just shows that WWE doesn't have a back-up plan for top feuds when someone gets injured are still so quick to pull the trigger on a feud that they could've waited on doing simiarly to the Rollins vs Styles feud on Raw. It's unfortunate because I think if they waited it could've been on par with the Owens & Jericho split from a few years ago.
Also I just want to point out Owens competed for the WWE Title at Fast Lane even though it was a triple threat he still came up short & I think that waiting a bit longer for his next challenge would've benefited us all. Especially if it meant seeing a baby face Kevin Owens for a few months.
