Kevin Owens knows Roman Reigns wants to solve his “KO Problem”, and he offered “The Tribal Chief” a solution by challenging to a match at WWE Royal Rumble.
On the January 6 episode of WWE SmackDown, Reigns and The Bloodline opened the show, and the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion chewed out Sami Zayn for their loss to Owens and John Cena last week. When Reigns started to yell at Zayn, Owens came to the stage and told Reigns he was the person the champion had a problem with, not Zayn. He then challenged Reigns to face him at Royal Rumble. Reigns seemingly brushed the challenge off and said he didn’t care, as he just wanted Owens to disappear. Owens then stated that he’d see Reigns at Royal Rumble.
