Tonight on SmackDown, five of the company's most talented tag teams will battle it out in a gauntlet match, with the winner set to face Owen and Zayn for their championships.

Former WWE star wanted Sami Zayn to become world champion

Over the past year, the Canadian has gone on to become one of the company's most popular performers, with his alliance and eventual departure from Roman Reigns' Bloodline being heralded as one of the best storylines in recent memory.

Zayn came close to capturing Roman's Undisputed WWE Universal title last February at Elimination Chamber in his hometown of Montreal. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's UnSKripted, former WWE Superstar Ken Anderson (a.k.a Mr. Kennedy) said that he wished Zayn was the one to end Reigns' run as champion.

"I was really hoping for Sami Zayn. It just felt so good," said Ken Anderson. [36:45 - 36:52] (H/T Sportskeeda)
