3. Kevin Owens And Sami Zayn Already Fitting In On Raw

Most fans couldn’t wait for Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn to come over to Monday nights after months of feuding with Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan on Tuesday nights.  The duo was officially announced as new members of the red brand last week and have already begun making their mark on a new show.

Last night saw a new talk show-like segment featuring Owens and Zayn dubbed The Sami & Kevin Show.  Their first guest would be Raw GM Kurt Angle, who spent most of the time on the show taking subtle jabs by both Owens and Zayn.  But in the end, Angle would have the last laugh when he put the two in a tag team match against Braun Strowman and Bobby Lashley later in the night.

This segment was very good, as was their match later in the night against two of the biggest and baddest superstars in the WWE.  The match wasn’t necessarily a thing of beauty, but it was so well crafted and gave the beastful duo of Strowman and Lashley a lot of momentum after they ended up taking out Owens and Zayn.

It has only been two weeks, but Owens and Zayn have already made themselves at home on the red brand.  They are both gifted superstars, so it’s no surprise that they are already fitting in on a new show.  The future appears to be very bright for the two on Monday nights with more standout moments awaiting.

Kami can make anything work and the heelish duo should have no problems making whatever they get into work on the red brand.
