Shawn Michaels stole the spotlight when signing the contract between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens during the main event on Saturday evening. Not long ago, Rhodes beat Owens in a brutal match, but after the match, Kevin executed a Piledriver package on Cody leading to his hospital and their battle turned into rivalry. When signing the contract, Kevin Owens was seen showing a combative attitude and Michael as the special referee of the event gave Kevin a “sweet chin music” to teach him a lesson for his behavior. Despite Kevin’s actions, the event went well and the contract was signed.
Chronology of the signing of the contract between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens
Nick Aldas was not present for the signing of the contract and, in turn, Shawn Michael intervened as manager of the event. The Heartbreak Kid received a warm welcome from the fans. While the fans applauded Rodes and Hue for Owens during their entry, the commentators showed their dissatisfaction for Owens given his provocative remark against them.
Michael asked the two competitors to sign their next match. While Cody instantly signed, Owens made comments from Railleries on Rhodes in reference to the accusation of Rhodes to have taken the easy release, referring to the WWE Bash match in Berlin. Cody, ignoring Owens’ remarks, simply asked Owens to sign the contract he made, but Owens warned him of Smackdown pending to the Royal Rumble.
After the signing, Michael ordered the two competitors to temporarily return their titles. Subsequently, Owens attempted a sneaky attack on Rhodes, but Michael intervened, going back from Owens. Owens retaliated by trying a Piledriver package on Shawn, but Cody interrupted and delivered a Superkick. In response to Owens’ disturbing behavior, Michael, angry, delivered “sweet chin music”.
