It has been reported that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn have been sent home from the WWE’s tour of the UK following events that happened on SmackDown. What happens next?

In some shocking and breaking news, both Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn have been sent home following this week’s SmackDown from the WWE’s tour of the UK. This was first reported by Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet. At first glance, this news seems to indicate it may be a work due to their on going storyline and feud with Shane McMahon.

However according to Ryan Satin’s Twitter, this is not a work. As we dive deeper into the story, what could have happened for these two to be sent home from an important tour. As per what Satin has found out, Zayn and Owens went off script and it is being said they were “in business for themselves”.

On SmackDown Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn interrupted Shane McMahon and The New Day, which lead to Zayn being put into a match with Kingston. This is where the actions apparently happened, Owens attacked post match and then he and Zayn abruptly left leaving many confused.

As scripted The New Day were meant to fend off the heels, which would make sense looking at how everything has been booked. As to why Owens and Zayn went off script like this, it can only be speculated about. Are they unhappy about their current position in the company? Only they truly know this, but by going off script like this it is no wonder that disciplinary action was taken by sending them home.

What happens next for the duo? In the past when events such as these happen, it ends up being put into storylines and considering the timing and the current state of their storyline it would make sense if this was added in some how. It only adds extra heat and it paints them as being the rebels against SmackDown.

Whether or not this ends up harming them, it remains to be seen, it could be as simple as them both making a statement. Many fans are likely worried about their position within the company, could they be seeking a release? With the recent events with their storyline it is difficult to understand why they may be unhappy, with the Zayn heel turn being one of the best events to happen lately.

This is an event everyone will be watching on closely to see what happens next. The smart move would be to make this part of the storyline. Simply state their conduct had them sent home, maybe say they are suspended for a week and bring them back in at Survivor Series. As said it is going to be a wait and see thing, but with so many seemingly being unhappy something needs to change. Good luck to WWE with the rest of their tour, and perhaps Zayn and Owens need this time to think about their positions and what they truly want.
