WWE Raw Results: Highlights, Analysis, and Grades for January 2

Kevin Owens vs. Seth Rollins

Result: Seth Rollins defeats Kevin Owens via disqualification.

Rating: 2.0 out of 5 stars

Owens vs. Rollins did not have an added stipulation besides the ringside ban for the main event. So, either one could still win by disqualification.

About 10 minutes into the match, Owens blatantly picks up the bell and hits Rollins in the gut with it all while the referee watched this. He would call for the match to end and give the Architect the victory, because, well, Owens doesn’t want to be with Chris Jericho at ringside, right?

Well, KO ended up kicking and screaming on his way out, not knowing what he did wrong. He looked a bit foolish doing this, with there being little to no logic. Why would he want to cost himself a chance at being at ringside for Jericho’s title match? It makes no sense for how this got produced, so hopefully we get something to build off of this illogical decision later on Raw.

Expect Owens to even show up for the match since there’s not much holding him back from interfering. This could then lead to Rollins coming out to counter the disruption.
