Last week on SmackDown, Kevin Owens teamed up with John Cena to face Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn in a tag team match. It was the 16-time world champion's first match of 2022.
During the bout, The Honorary Uce was pinned, giving The Tribal Chief a rare loss on his record, although his shoulders weren't on the mat. The Bloodline responded by invading RAW this week and tried to do the same thing on the latest episode of the blue brand.
