Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were sent home from the WWE European tour after last week’s SmackDown in Manchester, England, after it was reported that they went against a creative decision and “went into business for themselves” after Sami’s loss to Kofi Kingston. The two returned to work this Tuesday for the Survivor Series go-home edition of SmackDown in Charlotte, NC.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter said that there was a plan, at least as far as Vince McMahon and others were concerned, for Owens to attack Kofi after his win over Sami, leading to Big E and Xavier Woods making the save to beat up Sami & Owens. The plan was for Owens and Sami to then run off, leading to the tag match that took place this week. The post-match angle went as planned except for Owens and Sami sticking around for the beatdown. Owens and Sami were reportedly yelled at backstage by WWE officials and sent home. There was another version of the story going around, which said the entire incident was a big misunderstanding and that Owens and Sami did what they thought they were supposed to do. There were people that vehemently denied the misunderstanding claims as there was a general feeling among the talents that Owens and Sami went into business for themselves, and they were seen as the bad guys.
